| Bob Preuss promoted Edward Preuss during the time Church Growth was the agenda of Ft. Wayne. UOJ and CG go together like nitro and glycerine. Cascione has killed the link to this essay - Ichabod effect? |
I have established a public link to the Edward Preuss book - The Justification of the Sinner Before God -PDF. The booklet can be purchased from Concordia, Ft. Wayne.
Read the introduction about Preuss - this yahoo joined the Roman Catholic Church while serving as a Concordia, St. Louis faculty member. Another St. Louis professor did the same - two in a row. Why? They found a better form of Enthusiasm, a better pope than Walther.
I will soon post an analysis of leaders fooling the members about justification.
The original German can be found here as a PDF.
I am leaving both PDFs up as public links on Dropbox. If you want to use Dropbox for free and get generous amounts of free storage, send me an email at gregjackson1948@qwest.net. My friends and I use Dropbox for easy, quick transfer of large files, backup of important files, and public links.
If I want someone to have a free copy of one of my books, I just right-click the PDF in the public folder and paste it into an email or FB text box. Some pastors have sent me collections of papers this way, too.

The English translation of Preuss's "Justification of a Sinner before God" with a new preface is available in softcover and hardcover. See these two links:

Unfortunately, the English
translations of Preuss's Justification book don't have page numbers for the German in the marginal notes, but you can see from the PDF that Dr. Jackson provided that the pagination between the German and English editions is indicated. This is very helpful for anyone who wants to research the original German, especially since the English translation does not have most of the footnotes, and the few it does have are often truncated (usually leaving out the references to Pietist authors like Spener and Fresenius).
The way the PDF is set up, the number in brackets in the outside margin shows the page number in the German edition. One can see that the vertical line in the text shows more exactly where the page break in the German is found. The vertical line is also indicated by the word(s) above and below the bracketed number. Obviously, due to word order changes between the German and English, the pagination is only approximate in many cases, not exact.
