Mrs. Ichabod needed a 5 hour medical test today, so I could not blog. She swallowed a radioactive egg for breakfast and they did special photographs of her digestive system. The test consumed a lot of time, but we no longer need a night-light.
This Just In!
James Huebner is now (11:50am CDT) out of the running leaving:
Paul Janke
Marc Schroeder
Paul Wendland.
The Synod Restructuring discussions continue, apparently evenly divided betwee those for the "streamlined" approach and those fearing a power grab. The text currently under consideration are not the same as those circulated 60 days prior to the convention and that has raised objections from several delegates. Further, there has been no hard copy of the latest version available to the delegates, rasing objections. Hard copies and continued discussion will be available at a time indicated by the steering committee.
James Huebner, Fuller Alumnus, is no longer in the running. He was clearly the worst choice of the Final Four. I do not know much about Paul Wendland. District Popes like Paul Janke are get-along, go-along guys. Marc Schroeder is the best choice left, a pleasant surprise for Ichabodians.
ICHABOD, THE GLORY HAS DEPARTED - explores the Age of Apostasy, predicted in 2 Thessalonians 2:3, to attack Objective Faithless Justification, Church Growth Clowns, and their ringmasters. The antidote to these poisons is trusting the efficacious Word in the Means of Grace. John 16:8. Isaiah 55:8ff. Romans 10. Most readers are WELS, LCMS, ELS, or ELCA. This blog also covers the Roman Catholic Church, Eastern Orthodoxy, and the Left-wing, National Council of Churches denominations.
