Mrs. Ichabod and I met Pastor and Mrs. Vernon Harley when we were living in New Ulm, Minnesota. He has died since then, but she still lives in Fairmont.
Pastor Harley, LCMS, wrote against UOJ for many years, and published his essay for anyone to see. No one took action against him.
I will publish his materials as time allows.
He had access to the early history of Missouri, when UOJ did not reign supreme. The Stormtroopers would love to have people imagine that UOJ was the official stance of the Syn Conference from the beginning, making it completely orthodox!
Where else do we find people teaching false doctrine as being the ancient teaching of the Church?
Answer - in Roman Catholicism, the Assumption of Mary is taught as originating in the earliest days of the Church, even though it was fashioned from the Dormition (Falling Asleep or Death) of Mary worship services and some very strange, late documents - The Travels of Mary - Transitae Mariae.
