Say It Ain't So, Joe

Joe Krohn said: "I don't think anyone is talking about changing doctrine."

If I had a dollar for every time I heard this I could fund the CORE single-handedly. Yet if Krohn's statement is based in any reality whatsoever, why would you see a video like the one Wisconsin Lutheran Chapel put out available here.

The DOCTRINE promoted in this trite little chancel drama is nothing short of Norman Vincent Peale or Robert Schuller.
The message? Be positive. Glass is half full not half empty! You could see that "full gospel" on NBC on Sunday evenings on Extreme Makeover Home Edition. It may not be the entire preaching that goes on that WL Chapel, but it is what they chose to promote to the entire world to see. What an incredible use of time and public preaching opportunity. Very sad.

No change Joe? You are completely blinded to what's happening. It is doctrine changed. The message is about, be cool with us, we are relational etc. Gone is any sort of trust in the Law and Gospel.
