Pastor Jackson,
After reading the survey of catechism texts, I was reminded that these are actually facts not mere opinions that demonstrate the shift of American Lutheranism since the 19th century.
There it is. Makes me feel like a Catholic— or maybe marginally better than one.
Indeed, what one sees when studying the change through the decades is a microcosm of the theological shift in the Catholic Church herself through her first 1500 years.
You don’t want to believe it, but there it is. The TRUTH never changes, but institutions do.
