Nastiness, Sarcasm, and Ignorance
Among the LutherQueasy Ankle-Biters

Pope Paul the Unlearned, MDiv, has no advanced degrees, no publications, 
and almost no parish experience. Therefore, He is an expert in all things Lutheran.
No surprise - the ALPB Forum kicked him out for his repeated nasty, dishonest behavior.
He lied about his secretive work with Herman Otten, to get Barry elected.

By the way, I put up a blog post about Jackson. How sick is it that he is running a "congregation" named after his deceased child and doing "Internet communion"? He has kindly provided a graphic of yours truly as Pope Paul the Unlearned. I like it.

Here's the blog post:

GJ - False teachers quickly betray themselves. Here are a few examples from one post:
  1. Congregation is in quotation marks. So Pope Paul has decided it is not a congregation. Jesus said, "Wherever two or three are gathered, there am I in the midst of them." Besides that, Bethany is an ecclesiastical corporation with its own tax number. The government is convinced, without the Word.
  2. How sick is it that he is running a "congregation" named after his deceased child - The constituting group chose a Biblical name, Bethany, from a group of possible names. No one suggested naming the congregation after a child, living or dead. Pope Paul needs to get a grip on his facts and emotions.
  3. doing Internet communion. I do not consecrate the elements. The efficacious Word of God does. Pope Paul is relying on his Roman Catholic parochial school training, which he often praises, with its emphasis upon the priest sacrificing Christ. Although our situation is not ideal, the members have been previously driven away from brick and mortar congregations by false doctrine, murderous and adulterous clergy, abusive church officials, and other distractions from the Gospel.
  4. Pope Paul and His cardinals seem to think the Word of God has no efficacy, whether in their quaint embrace of UOJ or their fanatical opposition to a tiny, harmless congregation. At what point does the efficacious Word fail to consecrate the elements?
  5. McCain and Barry could not muster enough courage to deal with any doctrinal issue in the LCMS, whether it involved Pentecostalism, union worship with various pagan religions (Al Benke), or the Church Growth Movement. How does one leverage 20 years of incompetence to become the LQ peritus?
  6. The ankle-biters are good for entertainment, and they drive all kinds of readers to Ichabod. Watch the most read list in the next few weeks.

I have watched and participated in the Ascension service and last Sunday's that were on Ustream. Maybe I do some a favor if they do not have to listen to my raspy voice when I follow along in the TLH. I never thought that the day would come where I could be in a truly Confessional Lutheran service from my man cave in the basement. The Liturgy which I took for granted in the days of my youth is hard to come by in my middle age.

I was friends with Paul McCain on Facebook until I left the comment that it was much easier to dismiss Jackson as insane than to respond to his accusations.

Paul saw fit to terminate our Facebook friendship.

Pity, I'll miss his insightful posts about his haircut.

This Pope Paul is the very epitome of a walking fallacy called - special pleading.
