"When you are dead, we will take over."



Satire or reality? See the graphic below, from Rock N Roll Lutheran Church, Round Rock, Texas: endorsed by the Conference of Pussycats while meeting at Patterson's church, enriched by synodical and foundation grants, swollen with almost 30 people in attendance - after only three years and two full-time staffers.

KJV Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.


This is the graphic for the children's group at Round Rock. Doebler borrows the sermonic content of false teachers, so he dasn't object to my copying his graphics.

C&Cers have one thing in common. They want a gimmick, technique, or method to do the Work of Lord because they find it too disgusting to do themselves. They have jobs not a life with the Lord.

Can anyone one tell me what those "li'l" dancing things are supposed to be in the lil rockers graphic? Rocks? Really?

They look more like 'lil' lumps of poo to me. Dingles, some might say.

The metaphor is rich.

Good job, Doebler, you're creating lil lumps of theological poo. Don't answer the door when the millstone salesman comes aknockin'. He might just have your size.

If you look at the "Church fromscratch" website, there is no article on the sacraments. Just a vague reference to baptism under "Holy Spirit" and nothing on the Lord's Supper other than an undefined reference to "Word & Sacrament". A non-Lutheran wouldn't have a clue that this church is Lutheran. The purpose of a confession is to confess. A vague confession is no confession at all. It is worse than saying nothing.

Is this what the C&C crew mean by a "seeker service?"

My favorite part is:

"We were Lutherans," said Ulch, who grew up in Crandon and used to gather for a "circle," or séance, at her grandmother's house each Sunday.

"She'd have the pastor over for dinner, then a séance in the afternoon. We didn't think anything of it - we thought everybody did that," said Ulch, who claims to have presaged a neighbor's death in a farm accident as a child of 10.

"My grandmother'd say: 'Now, kids, don't go telling the Reverend about the circle. I don't want him having a heart attack and dying on my floor.'"

While WELS desperately needs a change of leadership, i.e., the DPs, et al, the existing system makes it very difficult to clean house. Running operations as usual the present leadership gets by with ignoring facts, reason, rebukes, and the Word of God. Cutting support simply means they close another school. There is no method to replace the undesirables short of destroying the synod.
