LPC has left a new comment on your post "Jack Kilcrease Butters Up David Scaer for Another ...":
Jack is an example of what happens when you become a Waltherian. When you become a UOJer, you become dependent on an authority. You have to look for someone 'great'.
In LC-MS, there are plenty of professors specialising in historical and systematic theology, they have no one (after Walther Maier) that can be considered a specialist in exegetical theology.
The weakness in exegesis leads to dependence on an authority of what the Scripture means ( according to so and so etc).
Only the synodical conference Lutherans interpret Romans 4:25 like they do, the declaration of the whole world irrespective of faith to be justified.
Lenski does not believe this interpretation, neither does Walther Maier agree with that interpretation.
This is where the Synodical Conference people are unique and on their own because they are the only ones that interpret Romans 4:25 the way they do.
