The New Issue of Calvinist News - More Boring Than Impeachment Jabber? Yes!

 "Let me entertain you, let me make you laugh.
Hahahaha!"

Yesterday we learned that our favorite medical person, a nurse practitioner, has a doctorate in her field. How quiet the blogosphere would be if Lutheran clergy were unable to publish until they had completed a graduate degree in some field. Unfortunately, Walther only earned a B.A., which qualified him to be president of the seminary, president of the synod, in charge of the publishing house and magazines, and chief ecumenical officer.

Repeating PowerPoints from seminary is not a real education, especially when the schools teach "obfuscate to graduate."

Phil Hale joins a string of Ft. Wayne graduates who treasure their mal-education.

So far, the 2020 issues of the misnamed Christian News have earned this score:

  1. Justification by Faith - no mentions.
  2. Means of Grace - no mentions.
  3. Efficacy of the Word - no mentions, not even with efficacy or efficacious alone.


What Luther and the Book of Concord taught with great clarity is lost in the fog of current topics.

 "The next editor must have a busload of children and teach Justification without Faith. I have spoken."
