Waltherite Cult - Still Teaching Universal Absolution without Faith - Like ELCA

 

 

 


“The Waltherites claim that their fight is a fight for divine truth and for God’s Word… [but] where is it expressly said in the Bible, that faith comes from election, that the Holy Ghost in conversion also overcomes and removes willful resistancethat God could convert all men, but from some unknown reason chooses not to do it—that the reason why some men are converted, and others not, is simply because God removes willful resistance in some and in others He does not—that He bestows larger measures of grace upon some than upon others, etc.? Where are these and other similar things which New Missourians now hold, set forth? Not a shadow of proof has been furnished for any of them. And yet they are all boldly declared to be Bible truths and parts of the “reine Lehre,” just as the Papists claim their tenets to be contained in the Bible, being slow, however, to adduce the evidence."

From “The Lutheran Doctrine Of Election: Its Scriptural Evidence And Proof. By Rev. P. Eirich, Hoboken, N. J.” in The Columbus Theological Magazine, Vol 1, 1881, Matthias Loy, editor. LutheranLibrary.org


 Walther lied about Stephan's many affairs with young women, until an opportune time came to talk about the bishop's syphilis and that of his young girlfriends. He insisted on his false doctrine and controlled everything as a cult - seminary, publications, synod, calls. So Missouri built him a shrine or two.







Tax Tip - The 1099-R Tar Baby

 Turbo Tax headquarters - I used to teach their employees, but not about taxes. One CPA student said, "Any idiot can do Turbo Tax." That was after I confessed to using it. I said, "That's why I use TT."

I had so much trouble with someone's federal return, stuck on one page, for the 1099-R, that I did my own. It did nothing, went nowhere, and said there was an error. I went to the Net and searched the problem. Turbo Tax added the page, and it can be removed. Upper right-hand corner is search. Put 1099r or 1099-r in the search. That should bring up the page and delete it. I had delete twice, for each client. 

 "Anger" should make you laugh.

Matthias Loy Magazine - On Justification by Faith

John Sparky Brenner WELS professor at two seminaries, MLS and Mordor, admitted in his Jesuit dissertation at Marquette University that Walther's predestination rampage was promoted simply to back up his Objective Justification.

“It is only an effort to mislead the unwary when the cry is raised that grace is disparaged when stress is laid upon faith as indispensable to salvation. There is no such opposition between grace and faith as there is between grace and merit or works, because faith is the only means of appropriating the only merit which can avail for our justification.

From “Election and Justification” in The Columbus Theological Magazine, Vol 1, 1881, Matthias Loy, editor. LutheranLibrary.org


That the doctrine of justification by faith is thus placed in jeopardy is plain to the view. According to God’s revealed order of salvation He cannot eternally save the soul that has not the righteousness of Christ, which is appropriated only by faith. But the Missouri doctrine of election claims that He selects those whom He designs to save, and infallibly decrees their salvation, without any foresight of faith. The divine declaration, “He that believeth shall be saved,” is translated into the proposition, He whom God pleases shall and must be saved.”

From “Election and Justification” in The Columbus Theological Magazine, Vol 1, 1881, Matthias Loy, editor. LutheranLibrary.org


 Frosty Bivens, Fuller Seminary alumnus (or not, depending on the audience) claims that Objective Justification is the Chief Article of the Christian Faith. His pal Valleskey did not go to Fuller either (or he did, if talking to Fuller fans).

 Zarling, WELS, wrote an unintentionally funny essay on Objective Justification as a "diamond." The essay was so bad that Bivens stole Zarling's main points on OJ being the Chief Article. Kids - plagiarize and you could teach at Mordor.

 The Walther-Stephan faction put F. Pieper (Wisconsin Sect) in place to canonize CFW's 
crypto-Calvinistic OJ. Why did Walther call Loy to be a Missouri professor? Perhaps to silence him.



 Valleskey's lopsided smile is disturbingly like Mark Jeske's.





Impossibly Good Soup

 

This will revolutionize anyone's grasp of nutrition.


 Somebody - send this to Matt the Fatt in a plain brown wrapper. I consider this a faster read and 
more concise version of Eat To Live.

I was on the SAD (Standard American Diet) so long that I forgot what vegetables were like, delicious and satisfying.

Souped-up Vegetables

Dr. Fuhrman promotes greens, beans, fruit, and nuts. I tried microwaving some frozen vegetables, but the results were uneven. I changed to souped-up vegetables. Here is the approximate recipe, based on what I had yesterday:

  • Partial can of soup, with chicken and sausage
  • Frozen mushrooms
  • Frozen asparagus
  • Frozen mixed vegetables
  • Tomato paste
  • Frozen pearl onions 
  • Milled flaxseed
  • Almonds 
  • Tabasco sauce or black pepper

I slowly stirred this in a covered sauce pan, on the gas stove. I ate about half and saved the rest in the refrigerator for today.

The fast Fuhrman meal is - a large bowl of spinach, a tablespoon of milled flaxseed, a tiny bit of salad dressing, plus almonds and blueberries. I alternate almonds with walnuts.

I eat four or more servings of apples and oranges each day. 

Incomplete Protein Myth

We were told, falsely, that it was hard to build complete protein from eating plants alone. The body does the finishing part during digestion, including some recycling from the body in the intestines.

The Fats Group

We overdo the fats group, promoted by various nutrition experts hired by the fat group producers, far too much:

  1. Milk and cheese
  2. Meat and fish
  3. Eggs
  4. Fried foods 
  5. Gobs of salad dressing and "healthy" oils
I know the bakers-confectioners were upset when a cigarette company promoted, "Instead of a candy, I reached for a Lucky Strike. They got the company to pull the ad campaign. 

Sweets
The sugar group, which fed and clothed the Jackson kids, and helped me through college, are 
well represented by:
  1. Hard candies and chocolate
  2. Various types of gum
  3. Cakes and pies
  4. Soda pop
  5. Sugar-free, anything with artificial sweeteners, which have the same effect on the body as sugar, but without tasting good.
  6. Juices, which are like drinking maple syrup
Don't Tell Me God Created 
Vegetables This Way!
Fuhrman opened my sweets-blinded eyes by pointing out the remarkable volumes of nutrition found in vegetables. Since we do not and cannot eat the same vegetables all the time, the variety of foods we like will balance nutrition and slow down the digestion, since sugar and fats have instant unbalancing effects.

On Google, look up the "nutritional benefits of..." and add various foods. 
Asparagus is good for bones, low calorie.
Onions have chromium, which lowers blood sugar.
Mushrooms have Vitamin D.
Tomato paste is loaded with lycopene.
Almonds, blueberries, walnuts, and flaxseed are all good for the heart. Look it up!

 How many arms have held you

And hated to let you go?
How many, how many, I wonder
But I really don't want to know.
How many splits have kissed you
And set your mouth aglow?
How many, how many, I wonder
But I really don't want to know.
So always make me wonder
Always make me guess
And even, if I ask your
Weight-gain, don't confess.
Just let it remain your secret
But darling I love splits so
No wonder, no wonder, I wonder
Though I really don't want to know.

{No ice cream since December, OK?}
