I finished two online classes, 20 students each, so I had a little time to enjoy the lax security of Facebook. They changed the settings overnight and that meant many features were suddenly open to anyone with an account. I found Joe Krohn on Facebook and MySpace. The Facebook site shows Dom Perignon Patterson and the CG gang as friends. The MySpace account is just for music. Never the twain shall meet.
Joe bragged on the Church and Change listserve that he was giving me a hard time, but he tried to claim on this blog that he was not Church and Change. His previous church was Jeff Gunn's failing CrossWalk entertainment center. He started a Rock and Roll Church blog, anonymously, but closed it down. He was a fan of the fake Ichabod blog, but that also closed down. All files were erased from both blogs. He seems to be well established as a musician, but Doebler's ungrateful parish canned him as Rockmeister.
Joe has appointed himself the official UOJ theologian, as well as the defender of all things Chicanery. Below are some selections from his deep, spiritual insights.

The hatred and slander on this site makes me sick. There is no excuse for this, especially coming from Christian men and women.
Joe Krohn has left another Enthusiastic comment on your post "Try To Keep Up with The Finkelsteinery":
TWANG!!!!!
You are are a legend in your own mind.
There's only one thing worse than a snooty theologian and that's a snooty music buff. Your put down of anything that you don't like means:
a. You compensate for your insecurities by dissing 'bad' music and hopefully make yourself feel better. How's that workin' for ya?
b. You are obviously a non-musician. Go and tell Joe Satriani that anybody can do what he does. Stick to what you know, bad theology. Go here for good theology:

c. You are a frustrated musician who realizes you just can't hack it. I have heard you sing. I don't think you could carry a tune in a bucket. :)

I wonder how the anti-C&C folks view Paul's ministry because if they apply their rules to Paul, he would be considered outside of our fellowship. I think I remember reading somewhere that St. Paul's favorite munchie was popcorn...I couldn't resist. :)

I'm still not convinced by any of the confessional crusaders that anything is being done wrong in 'comtemporary' settings. We are all free to worship as we wish as long as it is Biblical. So worship as you wish according to your own preferences. Make sure you are not taking offense when none was given. Contemporary is no more a mandate than what traditional is. It is different and not meant to take the place of. It is merely an addition to.

Brett,
If you want an explanation about what is on CTR's website, I encourage you to contact the church directly through the website. I doubt Pastor Matt Doebler would ever see your request on this blog as there are more constructive things to be doing in the body. I for one will be taking my own advice. I will leave you with this question.
You seem to know specifically about what heaven is not. Tell me, what specifically is heaven like? That should be pretty easy for you, right? Make sure you include scripture references.
Its (sic) been real and its (sic) been fun. But it hasn't been real fun.
All y'alls will be in my prayers.

Joe Krohn is also a UOJ follower. All the Church Shrinkers in WELS love Universal Objective Justification, an opinion which is taken, word for word, from a Pietistic dogmatics book (19th century). There will be some red faces in the old Synodical Conference in a year or so.
I found Joe promoting his blog on Bailing Water:

I can't help but feel that your opening remarks are at the very least legalistic and at the worst judgemental. To say that high church liturgical is the only way to do corporate worship flies in the face of The Augsburg Confession and more importantly the Bible. I would be glad to discuss in detail point by point. My blog or yours?

"A faithful Lutheran pastor in the tiniest Lutheran congregation is more productive than all the Stetzers put together. The faithful pastors sows the Seed of the Word with abandon. He does not bully God into giving him visible results to brag about in his next book. He is busy enough with studying the Word and the Confessions so that he has no time to tell every other denomination about the art--or is it the scam?--of Becoming Missional."........
...or he cruises the internet all day long and publishes a blog full of propaganda filled with the viciousness and venom of a Pharisee hissing like the vipers Jesus so aptly named them.

Look at the thief on the cross with Jesus. He never partook of the means of grace and yet he went to heaven that day. It was Grace by faith alone that saved the thief that day which was given to him by God through Christ's death. Christ died for ALL!!!

Now, please answer the question.
DOES (sic) GRACE AND JUSTIFICATION EXIST BEFORE A PERSON BELIEVES?
A simple yes or no will suffice if that is possible.

GJ - Please study your Book of Concord, Joe Krohn, Rock and Roll theologian. Afterwards, read the blog sections on UOJ. No one is justified apart from faith. Atonement, reconciliation, propitiation, redemption (two different Greek words) - all express the truth that Christ died for the sins of the world.
