Good day Professor Jackson!
I just received a St. Marcus newsletter from Jan. '09. I know you'll be interested in two of the bible studies they are current (sic) offering.
Here is a quote:
"1. All Wet for Jesus: Pastor Paul leads an 8 week study on the sacrament of Baptism and its power.
2. 'Purpose Driven Life' Mike O'Brien leads a group reading through Rick Warren's best-selling book on finding your unique God-given purpose in life."
There are a few comments I have. Rick Warren is so obviously wrong that several nondenominational Christian friends of mine will not even pick the book up. It just goes to show how warped the WELS is in their alleged support of Confessional theology.
Secondly, what is 'All Wet for Jesus' supposed to mean? Excited for Jesus? I don't want to jump to the conclusion that Pastor Paul (whoever that is) chose a vulgar name for his Bible study but it's hard to ignore the blatant sexual overtone. If that was his intent (and towards our Savior even!) I have to pull out the stops on my criticism: Pastor Paul: read Ephesians 5:3 and repent. You are playing with fire.
I hope that isn't what he meant but I can draw no other conclusion. As a note of interest I looked up "All wet" in the dictionary. From www.thefreedictionary.com
"Idioms:
All Wet, Slang:
Entirely mistaken."
Maybe "All wet" was right on the money?

GJ - I am waiting for the comment that says: "This cannnn be understood correctly." It is important to stretch out can to make the speaker sound intellectual.
And some thought "Bible Babes" was a stupid name for a women's Bible study group.
