Alexander Campbell founded the Disciples of Christ (Christian Church) to unite all Protestant denominations. The Disciples split into four or more separate sects. Donald McGavran, co-inventor (with Satan) of the Church Growth Movement, was a Disciples of Christ missionary.

From a Church of Christ (Cambellite) Member:
A more accurate title would be “LCMS Pastor versus the Campbellite Church”.
I once considered joining the LCMS, and I worshiped at a LCMS congregation during the Lent season last year, but I came to not believe in sola scriptura anymore, and thus I could not stay there.
At any rate, the Lutherans are Christians, even if some are anti-Catholic, and beyond this, they hold onto a lot of the tenets of the Catholic Church; there should be some parallels between the Lutheran and Catholic positions within this exposition. Attached is a Word document which leads to a 31 page exposition written by an LCMS pastor. The largest part of it is on baptism, specifically believer’s immersion.

GJ - McGavran worked with the World Council of Churches and endorsed the ministry of death via Planned Parenthood. His denomination is strong throughout Illinois and a swath down toward Texas. LBJ was a Disciples member. The Disciples are one of the most Left-wing of all Protestant groups. They once confessed at convention to betraying three revolutions: the American, the French, and the Communist!
The blog writer seems to be Church of Christ, a fundamentalist break-off from the Disciples. The Church of Christ is opposed to instrumental music in church, so they have developed fine, four-part hymn singing.
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.
