Rolf Preus versus CFW Walther

Easter absolution - without faith - based on the false interpretation of 1 Timothy 3:16.


Cascione and McCain posted this essay, which is utterly absurd in its entirely,to support their beloved OJ: The Easter absolution of the world - without faith.

 The Easter absolution of the world - without faith.

Note the Moment of World Absolution above - Easter.


But Rolf Preus declared here


Rolf Preus on Spenerquest:
The grace of God is locatable. It isn’t floating out in space. It’s not there in the beautiful sunset or the cool waters of the forest stream or even in the laughter of a little child. These are beautiful things, but they don’t grant you the forgiveness of your sins. God’s grace is located where his dear Son suffers and dies. It is as Jesus suffers on the cross that he intercedes: “Father, forgive them.”

Rolf is terribly confused about the Means of Grace and Walther's Moment of World Absolution. Rolf moves it earlier - to Good Friday. Then what happened on Easter? He does not agree with Walther and should be run out of the LCMS again for that blasphemy against The Great Walther.

The invisible Word of teaching/preaching and the visible Word of the Sacraments - those are the Means or Instruments of Grace. The Scriptures do not indicate in any fashion that Jesus was absolving the world of all sin - without faith - whether on Good Friday or the Day of Resurrection.

Which side is he on now? Here is another eructation linked on Steadfast Lutherans - A Global Hive of Enthusiasm.

 Fuerbringer, the nephew of Walther, and his co-editors, wrote this more plainly and eloquently than any OJist could.
 Rolf's joint appearance with WELS' Wayne Mueller suggests that he agrees with Wayne's UOJ and Church Growth Enthusiasm. Rolf is very selective, you know.
 The Rolf-Dona Synod was a temporary marriage of the hives, until the ELDONA district discovered Justification by Faith and Charitable Trust Alone.
