There are two directory list commands in your ftp commands.
If the second command one on its own does not write to "ftp.log", then we must assume that the feature does not work in "lftp".
In this attempt we'll try to redirect any output to the log file.
#!/bin/bash
(
cd /home/voorhees/scripts
lftp -p 1857 -u jimbo,james annon.homeunix.org/xvid <<EOF
ls -lat
quit
EOF
) > ftp.log
#
leafpad ftp.log
Note: I have changed the ftp commands to lower case because some unixes don't like upper case.

shells(4) File Formats shells(4)
NAME
shells - shell database
SYNOPSIS
/etc/shells
DESCRIPTION
The shells file contains a list of the shells on the system. Applications use this file to determine whether a shell is valid. See getuser-
shell(3C). For each shell a single line should be present, consisting of the shell's path, relative to root.
A hash mark (#) indicates the beginning of a comment; subsequent characters up to the end of the line are not interpreted by the routines
which search the file. Blank lines are also ignored.
The following default shells are used by utilities: /bin/bash, /bin/csh, /bin/jsh, /bin/ksh, /bin/pfcsh, /bin/pfksh, /bin/pfsh, /bin/sh,
/bin/tcsh, /bin/zsh, /sbin/jsh, /sbin/sh, /usr/bin/bash, /usr/bin/csh, /usr/bin/jsh, /usr/bin/ksh, /usr/bin/pfcsh, /usr/bin/pfksh,
/usr/bin/pfsh, and /usr/bin/sh, /usr/bin/tcsh, /usr/bin/zsh. Note that /etc/shells overrides the default list.
Invalid shells in /etc/shells may cause unexpected behavior (such as being unable to log in by way of ftp(1)).

/etc/shells lists shells on system
