Congratulations to Steve Witte:
Calvinistic Grant Awarded for Worship



This is the Calvinistic view of the Resurrection, found on the front page of the Beautiful Savior (WELS) website, Green Bay. Calvinists believe Jesus could not leave the tomb until the angels let Him out. John Calvin himself said - Jesus entered the locked room through a secret entrance. Calvinists also reject the Real Presence - in fact, Calvin mocked it in his Institutes. Calvinism is rationalistic and always leads to Unitarianism at best.

Pastor Steve Witte has a DMin from Gordon Conwell. Witte was a founder of Church and Change. He has a call to serve in Asia for WELS missionary work. The CLC (sic) did the same thing with David Koenig, they sent a Lutheran-doctrine-hater overseas.

GJ - Witte is so broke he has to run to the Calvinists for money. Send him overseas - the heretics in world missions won't even notice.
