DO LUTHERANS BELIEVE THEIRS IS THE ONLY TRUE RELIGION? Yes. But they do not believ that they are the only ones who have it. Someone has aptly defined "true religion" as, "Accepting what God wants to give you." And Lutherant know that no one denomination has a monopoly on thos who "accept what God wants to give." But Lutherans also realize that again and again throughout history, men have tried to dilute that which God most wants to give: The Gospel of Christ. AnA kArmilk fnat Is ids L. . . L ' which Gnd wnrlct In mnn. I itthpnn Unu, "watering down" of the Gospel is a blasphemy against God and a danger to human souls. . Ihat is why Lutherans are not among those who say, "One church is the same as the next!" or, "It doesn't make much difference what you believe, ust so you believe!"

An eternal difference! That is why both children end adults are thoroughly Instructed in the faith before being received as Lutheran communicants. It does make a difference what you believe!
