Isn't relevant to my point. The subject is morality. It was suggested that a Christian's morality comes from the OT. That is simply wrong. Believe it or not, NT morality is a higher standard even as it has less specific do's and don'ts.
I was interested to hear the answer to my questions in the second point--which is very relevant to the title and the OP. What do you think?
Are Lutherans not christians? I got all kinds of OT morality taught to me in my short 8 years there.
Oh, wait, I forgot. You're one of those "special" kind of christians.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
