ICHABOD, THE GLORY HAS DEPARTED - explores the Age of Apostasy, predicted in 2 Thessalonians 2:3, to attack Objective Faithless Justification, Church Growth Clowns, and their ringmasters. The antidote to these poisons is trusting the efficacious Word in the Means of Grace. John 16:8. Isaiah 55:8ff. Romans 10. Most readers are WELS, LCMS, ELS, or ELCA. This blog also covers the Roman Catholic Church, Eastern Orthodoxy, and the Left-wing, National Council of Churches denominations.

Justification by Faith Is an Old Heresy - Says WELS - Whose President Taught It in Their Catechism for 65 Years
Brett Meyer has left a new comment on your post "Insights from Gausewitz - By Brett Meyer":
Hi Lito, you're right, they don't respond. Truth is that UOJ is another gospel that is not compatible with Christ's Gospel which teaches Justification by Faith Alone (JBFA). Having rejected the Gospel promise in the Word (WELS Pastor James Humann stated JBFA was an old heresy) they've gone about to establish a righteousness outside of the work of the Holy Spirit through the Means of Grace. Their faith and trust is in a righteousness given them before and without faith. In fact they disparage faith which Scripture declares is the righteousness of Christ. They war against Christ and His Word and subsequently they will continue to war against Christ's Church.
Romans 10:3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
Christ's continued blessings and mercy to you my Ausie brother in Christ,
Brett
