Various denominations, but unionism
dares not speak its name, lest it be heard on the streets of Gath.

GJ - I remember David Menton telling me how horribly wrong and unionistic it was (for me) to publish in Calvinist News (nee Christian News, nee Lutheran News). I pointed out that CLC pastors, such as Paul Teufel (his nickname in the sect) published there all the time. No, said Menton, that did not count, because Otten was reprinting from the CLC publications.

Not long after that, Menton published a series of Creation articles directly in CN. He was very good on the topic. 

The irony is that people who want to write and talk about Creation, inerrancy, and the King James Version are the non-Lutherans. 



 This is how one runs for the LCMS presidential office - and wins!




WELS-LCMS had already apostatized when they scurried off to Fuller Seminary to study marketing trends. But Fuller and Willow Creek did a great job of enforcing women's ordination and Anything Goes religion.
