WELS church lady has left a new comment on your post "Wendland Cowed by MooAs WELS Scrambles To Justify ...":
Say no to the 2011 NIV! Also, please read two new essays by John Brug. These are recent additions listed on the home page of whe WLS essay site. I know some of us(Gregory L Jackson) have not always seen ey-to-eye with Prof. Brug. However, Brug wrote an essay in October of 2010 and he was NOT pleased with this new NIV. He went as for as saying that the WELS should NOT consider it. (He cited many doctrinal errors) Prof Brug wrote an essay regarding the ESV.(he called the ESV the lesser of the two evils) That being said, Brug was against the Synod adopting the ESV.
What surprised me the most was that Prof. Brug called the original NIV, "No better." Interesting! Tell, your friends, relatives, pastors, and church members to say NO to the New NIV.
In Christ,
