| Calvin was poorly trained in theology, like the self-important grandees of the Synodical Conference seminaries today. He was jealous of Luther and wanted to be a leader on his own. |
 |
| Karl Barth and his Commie mistress Charlotte Kirschbaum became the 20th century Calvinist leaders, prolific false teachers admired and emulated by Protestant and Roman Catholic theologians. |
Calvinism has the same relationship to Lutheran doctrine as mercury has to precious metals. Calvinism easily attaches itself to Lutheran teaching and is very hard to remove.
The earlier crypto-Calvinism of the Lutherans was so hidden from the Elector that he was punishing the faithful theologians while favoring the false teachers.

From 2012
Paul McCain is selling his Calvinist Bible from a supposedly Lutheran publishing house, simultaneously warning everyone about crypto-Calvinism.

| Driscoll, on the far left, is the potty-mouth pastor admired by Glende and Ski. J. I. Packer is a famous Calvinist who edited McCain's favorite Bible, the ESV. |
rlschultz has left a new comment on your post "Beware of Crypto-Calvinists Selling Calvinist Bibl...":
I once made a Crypto Calvinist bristle when I jokingly referred to him as one. The whole premise of Crypto Calvinism is deceit. They say that they are Lutheran, but are really in the Reformed camp.

GJ - I have been commenting to readers and on the blog that the Synodical Conference promotion of Universal Objective Justification reminds me of the reasoning of Calvinists. The system is first and must be true - no matter how much their claims repudiate the Scriptures at every term.
Just as Calvin mocked and attacked the Real Presence, so do the new crypto-Calvinists (Buchholz, Webber, McCain, Valleskey) mock and attack Justification by Faith.

| The Left wiggle their hooves in delight when they quote Barth. The UOJ Stormtroopers are no less pleased with themselves when they quote Huber, Knapp, and Rambach. |
