Uh huh.... teaching that is in opposition to the whole counsel of God.... is heresy
Such as baby baptism the lutherns engage in, that's a good example of heresy.
Claiming "perseverance of the saints" where those that live in sin go to Heaven anyway... is another example of heresy
Here's some more luthern heresies...
Q. What good does this eating and drinking do?
A. These words tell us: ``Given for you'' and ``Shed for you to forgive sins.'' Namely, that the forgiveness of sins, life, and salvation are given to us through these words in the Sacrament. Because, where sins are forgiven, there is life and salvation as well. —Martin Luther
No mention of repentance which God's Word teaches... this leads people to think they can continue in sin and it'[s all good, when it's NOT!
"Q. What is confession?
A. Confession has two parts:
First, a person admits his or her sin
Second, a person receives absolution or forgiveness from the confessor, as if from God Godself, without doubting it, but believing firmly that his or her sins are forgiven by God in Heaven through it." —Martin Luther

"Our prayer should include the Mother of God…What the Hail Mary says is that all glory should be given to God, using these words: "Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus Christ. Amen!" You see that these words are not concerned with prayer but purely with giving praise and honor… We can use the Hail Mary as a meditation in which we recite what grace God has given her. Second, we should add a wish that everyone may know and respect her… He who has no faith is advised to refrain from saying the Hail Mary." (Personal Prayer Book, 1522).
—Martin Luther
This is idolatry to call upon Mary... God's Word does not teach to do this.
