Baptist-Lutheran
Preparations for conversations between the Baptist World Alliance and LWF began in 1975, after contacts were made between officials of the two international bodies. A decision to establish the Baptist-Lutheran Joint Commission was taken in 1984. The commission met four times between 1986 and 1989, after which its report "Baptists and Lutherans in Conversation: A Message to our Churches," was published. The report discusses the main themes from the conversations:
- Authority for Preaching and Teaching in the Baptist and Lutheran Traditions
- Faith - Baptism - Discipleship
- The Church
- Lutheran Condemnations of the Anabaptists in the Sixteenth Century and the Relationship of Lutherans and Baptists Today
