Our Lutheran Librarian Alec Satin and I were exchanging emails this morning, and I brought up the way the Word of God makes Lutheran leaders angry.
That encompasses my theory that Barth/Kirschbaum's unbelief philosophy has captured most of Protestantism and Catholicism. Even four decades ago, the Roman Catholic religious who in graduate school for theology were on the far Left of Protestantism. Barth/Kirschbaum - who are very popular with Fuller graduates - is also the tag-team for theological professors, Lutherans included.
Luther saw the danger of starting with Aristotle and making the ancient Greek philosopher the base of all argumentation. Barth/Kirschbaum allows the intellectuals to discuss and write about all the topics of faith without actually believing in them. They imagine they can find - or at least profit from - the great, universal truths of philosophy which lie beneath all religion.
An adept theology PhD will write his dissertation on one word - such as "intent." The famous Yale theologian Gene Outka wrote his on agape. "Both Roman Catholic and Protestant writings are considered, including those of D’Arcy, Niebuhr, Ramsey, Tillich, and above all, Karl Barth." There is an entire industry based on interpreting Barth/Kirschbaum, sometimes with more emphasis on Kirschbaum.
The individual who thinks the leaders/professors of Lutherans (Methodists, Baptists, Roman Catholics) wrongly concludes the elites believe what is claimed in the documents. They are well-acquainted with those words, phrases, and catechisms, but their intellectual life was claimed by the Barthians of the academy or the Barthians of Fuller Seminary. Thus the warning by James -
"You believe that there is one God? You do well. The demons believe, and their hides bristle." James 2:19 (Jackson Literal)
2:19 συ πιστευεις οτι ο θεος εις εστιν καλως ποιεις και τα δαιμονια πιστευουσιν και φρισσουσιν
Thayer's Greek Lexicon
STRONGS NT 5425: φρίσσωφρίσσω; very often in Greek writings from Homer down; to be rough,Latinhorreo, horresco, i. e.
1. to bristle, stiffen, stand up: ἔφριξαν μου τρίχες, Job 4:15 the Sept.; with ὀρθαί added, Hesiod, Works, 510; ὀρθάς ... φρισσει τρίχας (cognate accusative of the part affected), Hesiod scut. 391; with cold, διά τό ψῦχος, Plutarch, quaest. nat. 13, 2, p. 915 b.
2. to shudder, to be struck with extreme fear, to be horrified: absolutely, James 2:19; 4 Macc. 14:9; like the Latinhorreo, horresco, construction with an accusative of the object exciting the fear, Homer, Iliad 11,383, and often.
noun
- a sudden strong feeling of excitement or fear; a thrill."a frisson of excitement"
The church leaders are almost entirely false teachers, even when judged simply by their own confessions. But let's narrow it down to the Lutherans. That is so plainly true that they could not help showing their disdain for Luther, the Reformation, and the Book of Concord that it was an embarrassment.
The Objective Justification Stormtroopers are the most obvious, though the rest agree with them. The LutherQuislings, who put their trust in the laughable Walther, put that on display by avoiding the issue in Justification by Faith - the Scriptures.
But in many other circumstances, a modest question aimed humbly at one of the ecclesiastical princes (ELDONA especially) will elicit a snarl and a show of wrath if the conversation continues.
The clownish Dave Koenig and the haughty Paul Tiefel had tantrums at one meeting. The Luther sermon on false teachers fits them so well - look for it above.

| Why was this known Sodomite invited to give a public lecture at Wisconsin Lutheran College (WELS), which included his priests? WLC promoted Archbishop Weakland to the entire community. |
When I said WELS should face issues instead of finessing them, DP Robert Mueller turned on me at the meeting and began berating me. Timid Tim (not Glende) was shocked because Mueller was normally so mild. I did not push Mueller's buttons - the Word set him off - big time - and continued to, until he went into hiding in Russia.
The Word also sets off fear and revenge. Mordor President Valleskey did not want to confess his study at Fuller Seminary, though his drooling over Church Growth gave it away. Frosty Bivens walked his study at Fuller all the way back to "never happened." The professors who lie about their true love of apostasy are anxious to yell "Liar!" when the truth is made known. WELS does not even admit they have a secret hazing rite at their seminary, even though the disgrace (GA or HB) happens each year.
