What is Baptist?
The Baptist is the division or the sect in Christianity which is of the view that baptism (a sacred activity) is for the professing believers and not for just naming the infants. A wide misconception which prevails regarding their belief is that they are recognized as those following the major Christianity division, Protestant, but they never themselves proclaimed this. The concept of God, Communal Gathering and following the Holy Bible is quite the same in the case of Baptist as the other denominations in Christianity have; the prominent difference which falls in is due to the dogmas and the preaching methods. Even there is a contrast in the origin of the Baptist; one of the factions believes that Baptists is the branch of the radical movement Anabaptist which rose up in the 16th country. On the other hand, the strong baptism followers are of the view that Baptist is since the Jesus Christ’s era. The trace back into the history of the first Baptism Church tells that it was situated in Amsterdam in 1609. Christians from different denominations and divisions even follow the Baptist doctrine. The Baptist concept mainly revolves around the baptism, which is the considered, the religious right. Many people are of the view that baptism is exclusive to the infants and are essential for the name-giving of them, but Baptists believes that it is only for the professed believers. The Baptists are an avid follower of the concept that salvation for Baptists is through the faith alone, apart from it, they acknowledge the supremacy of the scriptures way above the pope.
What is Lutheran?
The Lutheran Church or its followers Lutherans abide the theology of Martin Luther, which makes up the Lutheranism; one of the main branches of the Protestant Christianity. The name of this denomination is based on the Martin Luther, who summed up the doctrine to reform the churches. He came up with Ninety-Five Theses in 1517 and tried to convince the people through his literary work to voice in the support to reform the churches. The sole reason behind his stand-up against the Roman Catholic Church was the ill-practices and the corruption prevailing within the systems of the churches. The movement raised by the Martin Luther led to a schism; two major factions were there; one was pro-Luther, and the other dominant faction was of the Roman Catholic Church believers. The dominant faction threw him out of the Church, which resulted in Pro-Luther forming up the denomination named Church of Lutheran. Sprinkling water performs the Baptism by Lutherans, and it is nothing more than just the means of grace and the application. The Lutherans symbolize Bread and Wine in The Last Supper as the body and the blood of the Jesus. They are also of the view that saving people from sin is by God’s grace alone (Sola Gratia), through faith alone (Sola Fide).
