Worth a Careful Read - About Roman Catholicism - A Perfect Description of the Infallible Lutheran Leaders Today

 Note the twists and turns in the article,
which is loaded with true Roman and Lutheran dogma.

Ultramontane is the label given to those Roman Catholics who back the infallibility of the Pope and increase its reach and application. As one Roman Catholic observer whispered on national TV, "To many Catholics, the pope is Christ on earth!"

If that seems absurd, consider what one pastor said about the WELS Circuit Pastor - "I cannot argue with him, because the Holy Spirit appointed him. That would be like arguing with God!"

The author of the linked article is correct in stating that the recent popes have not been Roman Catholic at all. At some point, they veered hard to the Left and adopted what is called the New Theology, which differs little from mainline Protestant apostasy.

I consider Karl Barth and his Commnie handler Charlotte Kirschbaum the universal theologians of Roman Catholics, liberal and "conservative" Lutherans, and a large share of the Protestants. One of my Moline classmates was furious that I called Barth a Leftist, and the classmate is considered a conservative professor at a conservative college.

Barth-Kirschbaum is the greatest combination since nitric acid and glycerin. Catholic theologians are not well known by Protestants, but Barth-Kirschbaum are venerated by Protestants and Catholics. My Catholic professor Frank Fiorenza was president of the Barth Societiy.

The church leaders all groove on power. Schuller was a dictator who got even with anyone who questioned his pan-religious weirdness. The WELS and LCMS leaders get progressively worse after campaigning on their doctrinal superiority to the previous incompetent leaders. No dissent from their apostasy is allowed, and punishment is ladled out in large doses for the tiniest infraction.

The ELS-LCMS-WELS leaders met together (apart from ELCA, for once) and rejoiced in their common rejection of Luther's Biblical doctrine. They are one with each other, one with ELCA - and that is a win. Thrivent gets a bunch of sycophant synod leaders begging for unrestricted funds - mostly aimed at ELCA goals -  brainwashed members think Thrivent is their insurance and investment company. Their pastor referred them, so they must be trustworthy.

I am linking her graphics to her books now, to leverage the Search Engine Optimization - SEO.

And my author's page on Amazon - Gregory L. Jackson.

But I am digressing for the sake of SEO. There I go again.

Our member, Alec Satin, has already created a free digital library for Lutherans at his site -
Lutheran Library Publishing Ministry.

I am setting up something similar with my books. People will be able to get them at no cost and share them without getting angry cease and desist letters in the mail.

My generation favors printed books, but printed books may be largely displaced by the mobility and cost of digital books. If I want to look up quotations and have the citation for gardening books, I use Kindle. I wrote Making Disciples using the PDF of Thy Strong Word, so it was easy and fast to search (control-F) for every reference to "disciple" in 650 pages.

Nota Bene

I am always looking for new distribution points, so if you know of a few people or a larger group that will benefit from a given book, let me know. I send free books, extra books, review copies, all over the US.

How Times Have Not Changed - Luther - "The pope, cardinals, bishops and persecutors of the Word of God, live in security and continue to perpetrate their maliciousness against the Gospel and the Christians."

I use this for the blog favicon, the image that appears in the user's toolbar at the top of the screen.

The pope, cardinals, bishops and persecutors of the Word of God, live in security and continue to perpetrate their maliciousness against the Gospel and the Christians. God looks on and permits all this, even as if He were not aware of it, so that sometimes it seems as if He favored the heathens more than His own people. If we are Christians we will not be offended by this. He has vouchsafed to us, through His Son, sure help unto eternal life. He leaves us to ourselves in this our transitory existence, as if He cared not for us, but only to this end, that we should learn to know this Child and to believe in Him as the Savior, who is ready to help when no one else can help us, when our transgressions rise up against us and would deliver us into the pangs of eternal death.

John's Gospel of Faith: From the Disciple Jesus Loved

Another round of orders is going out today. Last night, I finished the rough draft of the Gospel of John book, whose title I keep adjusting. In a few days, those people will get an email about the books being shipped. There will be a tracking link that works within 24 hours. Name Withheld asked about his set - he was the first to order. I was able to look up that link and tell him the date and time it arrived - and who took it inside. That narrowed the location of the books down to... his living room.

Another set arrived in torrential rains but was providentially spared damage. 

I am working on longterm plans to make sure books will always be available free or at the lowest possible cost. 

I am not sure of the Lutheran Dictionary publishing date. It is more like a blog, a series of short posts.  I will have early versions to send around, since I will definitely miss some topics that should be included.

I will outline Calvin first, before writing - and say something good about Sig Becker. WELS seems to specialize in adopting what is bad and ignoring what is good. The idea is to identify Barth/Kirschbaum's obnoxious influence today, from Church Growth to the New Theology of Rome.

The bonus? I will get a series of free lectures from Calvinists on my FB friends list.
