ICHABOD, THE GLORY HAS DEPARTED - explores the Age of Apostasy, predicted in 2 Thessalonians 2:3, to attack Objective Faithless Justification, Church Growth Clowns, and their ringmasters. The antidote to these poisons is trusting the efficacious Word in the Means of Grace. John 16:8. Isaiah 55:8ff. Romans 10. Most readers are WELS, LCMS, ELS, or ELCA. This blog also covers the Roman Catholic Church, Eastern Orthodoxy, and the Left-wing, National Council of Churches denominations.

Message from WELS Church Lady
WELS church lady has left a new comment on your post "Who Is In Charge of Doctrine in the Lutheran Churc...":
I was beginning to think that Jay Webber was incharge of Lutheran doctrine. Pastor GJ can comment better than Webber.(that's because Pastor Jackson knows what he's talking about) Intrepid needs sound doctrine on those Justification posts. At the moment the best testimony is being led by the laymen. That is unacceptable! Lindee, Heyer, Pastor Spencer, and Pastor Lidke began here on Ichabod.(and even before) We/they need your guidance on an issue that you have studied, preached, and wrote books about. Gregory Jackson IS our modern theologian. His new book on justification has yet to be quoted on the Intrepids. Sweet, Groechel, Hybels, and Driscoll are neither Lutheran nor theologians. One even wonders how Christian these guys profess to be. Yet, it is perfectly okay to quote and TEACH from these characters.
Pastor Jackson is right, the Intrepid pastors need to "man-up!" They are forgetting the reason that the blog was started in the first place.
In Christ,
from WELS church lady

GJ - The justification book is still in very rough form, but I promise (d.v.) a polished version after Christmas break.
My theologians are Luther and Chemnitz, not Becker and J. P. Meyer.
