The only thing that is piling up is the crap that this blog dishes out. GJ, SJ, DOW, BM, and the rest can't stand the fact that Time of Grace, The CORE, St. Marcus, Parlow, Church and Change, etc., are actually making a difference and are reaching people with the Gospel.

GJ - Collecting bored-again Lutherans for a rock service is not my idea of evangelism. As someone noted, the CORE makes the ELCA churches in Fox Valley look confessional.

GJ,
Don't look now but your WELS training is showing. This is obvious when a one paragraph statement is met with a response that is four times longer and has nothing to do with the original paragraph.

GJ - I was just demonstrating how to copy and paste honestly, legitimately. Of course, you can start your own blog and demonostrate the proper way to do this sort of thing. I am sure everyone in Pewaukee will read it.

Much better. Short and to the point. What was the point again? Oh yea, don't question the honorable GJ when it comes to the proper way to do church.

If you are making such a difference, I do not want WELS to support you with my offerings. It is time to end the myths.
Press Release:
My fellow Confessional Lutherans,
We must not rest in our War on Error until the threat of Enthusiast Insurgence has been quelled. We know full well that those who would do harm to pure doctrine work tirelessly, and so I must ask my fellow Confessional Lutherans to meet adversity head on, sticking to the principles that have made our Church great. Even now, covert Errorist training camps in the Milwaukee region are recruiting an army of rictus-afflicted socialites, confused but well-intended college students, and those who have rejected the teachings of their youth in favor of glam-sham-flim-flam Christianity.
The time has come for all Confessional Lutherans to study the Bible and the Confessions. Arm yourselves with Truth, preparing an answer for the hope that you have--not in the machinations of human Christians, but a hope that rests purely on the efficacious work of the Holy Spirit through Word and Sacrament. Reject and fight the notion that human-born ideas and methods can make the Holy Spirit more efficient in Evangelical ventures!
With this knowledge you will then be prepared to approach your fellow laymen and pastors, encouraging those who have remained true, and gently correcting those who have turned an ear to the slippery lies of the Errorist factions. Discernment and action are necessary in these dark times, especially when considering the future generations of Confessional Christians. Above all, most importantly, PRAY for your fellow Christians and PRAY for the Errorist cells that so threaten our fair church.
We will prevail with God's direction and help.
God bless the Confession Lutherans of America!

Why do you feel the need to make this a public statement? I don't think anyone will beg you to change your mind. Just do it.
"Making a difference" says whom? And what is "a difference?" Do you have anything to say that is not ambiguous and misleading? If not, then waste someone else's money.
Talk about calling the kettle black. You support GJ the king of misleading. He has you so blinded that you you can't think straight or for yourself. He would have you believe that the WELS mothership is financially supporting The CORE, Time of Grace, Church and Change, etc. You might want to do some investigating on your own.

Therein lies the problem... they are making a difference because they ARE unfortunately different. It reminds me of the old song my kids used to sing from Seseme Street - "one of these things are not like the other. One of these things just doesn't belong."
Here is something deep, deep, deep, ... misleading church metrics/statistics:
offerings
attendance
number of members
number and age of buildings
number of programs
.

Do any of these work forgiveness, save souls, spread the Word of God to the unchurched, etc.?
Work forgiveness? No. Save souls? No. Spread the Word of God to the unchurched? Yes.
