Where is it then in the Book of Concord? Where in the foundational documents of what became ‘Lutheranism’? Doesn’t exist. There are numerous examples of Catholic deeds, not words, ran from the Vatican, from the highest reaches of your church. No examples of you decrying them, no blame on old mother church. One more step down the road of no credibility for you. How about saving us some time and just answering the questions in #150 as soon as the fever passes.
Don’t forget, Luther didn’t actually write most of the Book of Concord:
“Who wrote the Book of Concord?
The ancient creeds in the Book of Concord were prepared by early church pastors and theologians. Philip Melanchthon, a layman, was a professor of Greek and theology at the University of Wittenberg. He was chiefly responsible for writing the Augsburg Confession, the Apology of the Augsburg Confession, and the Treatise on the Power and Primacy of the Pope. Martin Luther wrote the Small and Large Catechisms and the Smalcald Articles. A group of Lutheran theologians prepared the Formula of Concord. They were Jacob Andreae, Martin Chemnitz, Nicholas Selnecker, David Chytraeus, Andrew Musculus, and Christopher Koerner.”

I am aware of that, but if Luther drove this whole thing as the poster suggests, then those views should have survived in the BoC, they didn't. As for the rest of the Reformers, can any point to the viewpoint surviving in their work? I think not. Just more LDS (not the Mormons).
