This question got my attention today, and it's one I've been wondering about.
Luther-Lutherans seem not to be within this mold at all, but pietistic Lutheranism seem have a lot in common with FV in regard to their view of the Church, Sacramentalism, and apostasy. Perhaps the answer lies in Law/Gospel?
Am I missing something? If this is true, then why do the FVers chide the Reformed for operating with a "Lutheran" doctrine of Justification? Several good friends are Lutheran and I'm worried about these parallels.
