Martin Luther vs the BIble:
Be a sinner, and let your sins be strong, but let your trust in Christ be stronger.
No sin can separate us from Him, even if we were to kill or commit adultery thousands of times each day.
But the Bible contradicts this protestant (aka self proclaimed bible-believers) ideals.
Romans: For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
St. James: “For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so faith apart from works is dead.”
To simplify my point further:
LOVE GOD FIRST AND ACT ACCORDINGLY.
Their stance is somewhat contradictory and abusive
I think they do believe that Jesus Christ will come back again
on the end of days and judgements will still be made.
“But take heed to yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a snare; for it will come upon all who dwell upon the face of the whole earth. But watch at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that will take place, and
to stand before the Son of man.” (Lk 21:25-28,34-36 RSV)
