My point simply in mentioning Jackson's sectarianism is simply to demonstrate that there is no point in paying any attention to what the man does, or says. He craves attention by which he attempts to spread his heretical views of the Gospel. And, ironically, he has set himself up as a cult-like leader of his little "internet church" sect. |

"He craves attention by which he attempts to spread his heretical views of the Gospel." And we don't help matters by comparing what he is reported to do to entirely dissimilar (reported) actions by a few within our fellowship. The fact that he is only known to truly influence those within his internet church sect is evidence (to me anyway) that there aren't waves of LCMS'ers flocking to him to "hear the truth". If 5% of our membership has even HEARD of him, I would be truly astounded! Joel Osteen is a bigger problem - but we don't need Koinonia to correct his followers either. |

And I have yet to understand whether he consecrates bread and wine and then ships it to members for their use -- which is similar to what elders have been said to do in some congregations -- or whether he tells his members that his consecration over the Internet is effective. If he does claim the latter, he might be interested in this LCMS CTCR opinion. "DVD Consecration" - A response to a request from a district president [February 2006] |

GJ - I am not especially honored that Paul McCain is ranting about me again. He was so obnoxious on the ALPB Online Forum that he was suspended. He disappeared after that from ALPB. I am not sure whether they kicked him out or he left again. He quit that forum before for "mental health" reasons, as he wrote.
One reader told me he sent McCain a friendly email and got an abusive, angry reply back. The reader was stunned, to say the least.
Every so often McCain starts posting about me, so I am glad he has found a group worthy of him.
These so-called conservative Lutherans are upset that I discuss justification by faith, which makes me a heretic in their blinded eyes. That means Luther and Gausewitz were heretics too. Pope Paul McCain is selling a justification by faith (no UOJ) catechism at CPH right now. It even uses the KJV, so McCain is a heretic too, by Lutherqueasy standards.
McCain agrees with Herman Otten, his secret political buddy, but Paul does not get along with Herman either. I used to think Paul got along with ELCA best, but that blew up. Now we can see that the Cascione group is his natural home.
I need advice from the LCMS Bored of Doctrine? That is funny. One of the Enthusiasts makes a false assumption, then says, "If you are sending out the consecrated elements with a DVD, you need to read this from us." Maybe you Enthusiasts should start with your own Enthusiasts, including Rolf Preus, Jack Cascione, and Pope Paul McCain.
People asked for an independent church, and Brett Meyer was kind enough to move us from teleconference calls to free Internet video services. The LQ sorority does not need to watch anything or read anything. Thousands have used the video services, according to Ustream. The last 11 months of the blog have recorded 500,000 page-reads.
The Bethany blog is just for sermons. I have seen them being read all over the world, especially in the Third World. I am not sure why, but the map indicates that response.
Today, Ichabod had 2400 page-reads. I do not think most people regard that response as a cult.
We agree with the Scriptures, appreciate the KJV most of all, and are in complete agreement with the Book of Concord. That disqualifies us as a cult.
I am not draining away your Thrivent or Schwan dollars, so I am no threat.
But people are wise to the UOJ fraud now, and that is a threat to the sob-sisters of LQ. I
am nothing and have no power. They are convicted by the Word of God.

Still Blank:
Since I was 'drawing a Blank' during my last post, I thought I would finish the sentance (sic) I apparently deleted in process: "He even posted a fine letter I wrote to a fellow church member (that apparently shared it with him)."
Pr. Kirchner, indeed I did give permission for the letter to be shared, so in that respect, I have no problem with it being there... I just did not expect it.
