Holy Trinity Society Follows Thrivent in Uniting All Lutherans


I got this from reading LutherQuest (sic), I confess.

Holy Trinity Society

Taken from that link the following:

"Members of the Society are ordained ministers who hold public office in churches that are not in communion with one another. Yet we drafted and subscribed to a Rule that commits us to celebrating the Lord’s Supper together precisely because ministers of the Word and the Sacraments also need to be fed with the Word and the Sacrament."

The communion service at Concordia, Ft. Wayne, featured LCMS, ELCA, and supposedly one WELS pastor. ELCA women pastors participated, but WELS says there is nothing in the Bible against ordaining women (Brug, Wisconsin Lutheran Quarterly).

LCMS SP Kieschnick communes with ELCA, too. The seminary president will get a severe post card and a case of beer for this slip.

The problem with these political solutions, as suggested by "A WELS Pastor", is that it will get you one of the four responses listed at the end of the posting below. Another response is the accusation of hearsay. All of these are designed to shut down the opposition. First of all, it is not hearsay. Like the sin itself, it is public. What could be more public than the internet? The entire C & C bunch stands condemned by their own testimony. The fact that Mark Braun did not mention Bartling by name shows how truly spineless apostates can be while they are being so uppity. After claiming support from SP Schroeder, we should come to expect nothing less from these chumps.
