Yes! And I would pray the baptists return the favor when having adult beverages in their basement rec rooms or are away on holiday!

Ah yes… this is a time honored toast in the Lutheran circles that I run in. But, you forgot the last part of the toast. The entire toast goes like this:
“Too bad for your baptists! But that means more for us. We’ll make sure none of it goes to waste. Hinunter die Luke. Prost!”

Well, Luther was German, and thus, the beer parties for those of this denomination. Those of the Roman Catholic denomination prefer their wine, and the post modernists enjoy their Starbucks….
Baptists have their green bean casseroles….Food is their pet indulgence! -

This was also the title of the post modern hymn that replaced “A Mighty Fortress Is Our God” in their hymnbooks..

Going to a Baptist church, I’ve never missed any of it, but wait ’til the Catholics at Our Lady of Perpetual Responsibility hear about this!

Well, we all know the Roman Catholics don’t recognize Constantinople and the Lutherans don’t recognize the Pope as the vicar of Christ, but the Baptists don’t recognize each other in the liquor store.

We like our beer for pleasure ( Yuengling Beer preferred ), but our wine in Communion.

Comment by Carol — April 17, 2010 @ 7:11 pm
I’m sure it’s not the non alcoholic beer either….

Ironic that we let a Progressive tenet of the last century (i.e., alcohol is evil) be the separator of the brethren of Grace even now!
A “Progressive” is a hopeless Utopian, “Heaven on Earth” type whose tenets have more to do with the “Progress of Darwin” than the ‘Water into Wine” Savior.
The only “progress” for Man was made by the perfect Savior at Calvary. Perfection has been accomplished in Christ not in just the sanitation due to outside white-washing but in the complete cleansing of sin. Sanitary sinners are only physically clean but spiritually aseptic in their sin! Those washed in the Blood of the Lamb are forever spiritually clean though they be grimy, impoverished, pilgrims in a strange land!

The main difference between Lutherans and Baptists is that the Lutheran will at least say, “Hello” to the Presbyterian in the liquor store. This is an area of Christian liberty where Christians must forbear with one another.

I assume this is what my great-grandmother was referring to when she left her Lutheran church for “giving a pillow to the sinner.”

Hey, you might meet the pastor and the whole congregation at the ABC!

Comment by Carol — April 22, 2010 @ 3:26 pm
They were hoping the alcohol in the beer would kill any infectious diseases, so their excuse to say, “Here’s to your health.”
So, “Pass the beer and say a hallelujah” was not the statement of faith the Lutherans had in mind…but they may have been invaded with some charismatic saints who got lost in the “church” district. Before storefronts and megachurches were constructed to appeal to the “unchurched”, these folks were ahead of their time.

I am a 1689 Confession Baptist. There are some Lutherns who are saved because they beleive the same gospel that saved Luther. Check out the MO Synod of the Lurtharn Church

Comment by Brent William Peterson — April 26, 2010 @ 8:42 pm
They are obviously not Missouri Synod!

What’s the difference between a Lutheran and a Baptist? The Lutheran will say hello to you in the liquor store!
(By the way, as a tee-totaling Baptist me-self, I find this all extremely funny!)

A good friend of mine said to me the other day; “you know your a Lutheran when some one says “May the 4th be with you” and you reply, “and also with you”"

Protestants won’t acknowledge that the Pope is the head of the Church.
Jews won’t acknowledge that Jesus is the Messiah.
And Baptists won’t acknowledge each other in the liquor store. -

Hey Lulu – maybe you just don’t know the right Wisconsin Synod Lutherans! LOL

Comment by Dominic — August 28, 2010 @ 3:02 am
Of course we won’t, Christ is the head of the Church
