Lutherans: are there any former Anglicans who have converted recently, and why?

Question

Martin,

I'm sorry. I should have been more specific and started my question "Confessional Lutherans"

Thanks James O, Usafbrat, and Martin. The responses to this, and the other Anglican Question I asked leads into another question: What can/should we be doing to help our Anglican and ELCA (I find it difficult to consider them Lutheran) brothers who are falling away from the Church because of Liberalism, and humanism?

Due to lack of response, I will put this question to a vote. All answers are great, I can't choose.

Answer 1

We have a seminary student at our church is a former Anglican. He has spoken a little bit about the Church of England, but not in any real depth. I know he prefers the scriptural basis for everything and the real presence in the sacraments. I'm sure I'll learn lots on Thursday at our adult bible study. We are doing a study on other religions, and he is leading the discussion of the CoE.

Answer 2

A friend has recently left the Episcopal Church for LC-MS(Missouri Synod, a conservative confessional Lutheran church) because of what he and his family see as'moral apostasy and contempt for the Word of God".
This family was evangelical AnglicanProtestant who believe that John 6 is "real" and that Jesus is truly present in the Eucharist. They were more attracted to Lutheranism than to most other forms of Protestantism,Continuing Anglicanism ,Roman Catholicism,Old Catholicism or Eastern Orthodoxy. They were impressed with Luther's Small Catechism.
I know more former Anglicans who are now other types of Evangelical Protestant,Charismatic,Catholic or Orthodox than I do those who are now Lutheran.
The ELCA and TEC have intercommunion now

Answer 3

Not so much with the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS), but when I grew up in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, we had some in our church.
The majority of 'converts' (use that term loosely) went to our church because of marriage. Very rarely did anyone convert and when the ELCA and the Episcopal Church joined in fellowship there was really no need to convert in their eyes.

"Kirk Cameron" You had a solid argument till this ingredient. Ray convenience's actual hand guy. the two one in each of them tried to come back up with a efficient argument for creation utilizing the banana as an occasion, all the together as ignoring the historical past of cultivated bananas. for this reason why Ray convenience will perpetually be accepted as "Banana guy".
