The Answer Is - "Pooled Ignorance"


The question is - "What is LutherQuest (sic)?"

Nope, you're wrong. (ha ha) The Answer Is- "Pooled faithlessness"

I had a recent discussion on Ichabod with the very worthy Brett and I was reminded from that conversation that people "in the know" shouldn't be given any slack. That is, the folks on Lutherqueasy are exuberant, pseudo-effulgent and self proclaimed experts, but who are in fact dilettantes. They all write with such authority, but yet cannot even put the effort forth to consider the True understanding of Justification. Fie on them. (There have been a few who ask good questions...a very few.)

It seems to me that if someone claims authority, like most of the Lutherqueasy folks do, we should accept them at their word. Those who defend UOJ on Lutherqueasy, and also claim superior spiritual insight thereby should be regarded as Apostates, because UOJ scorns Christ and his purpose.

Hi, Brett. I just figured I'd nod my head in your direction to let you know that I agree with the principles you argued for, in their proper context. The men who put themselves out there as beacons of UOJ aren't Christian, but anti-Christian. Direct attacks of those unabashed proponents of UOJ is worthy rhetoric.

Bored, with you I confess, all glory be to God alone. Let us all faithfully apply the full breadth and power of God's Word, the Sword of the Spirit, rightly dividing and applying Law and Gospel.

Hebrews 4:11-16, "Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief. For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do. Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need."

Christ's abundant grace and mercy be with you and yours.

By the grace of God, forever in Christ,
Brett
