The favorite term is Objective Justification, but they also like General Justification, Universal Justification, and Universal Objective Justification. The terms are not exactly limited to the Four Waltherian Sects  - LCMS-WELS-ELS-CLC (sic). Other cults use the term Objective Justification.

The Scriptures do not teach Objective Justification except Romans 3:24 on "all are justified," which includes two NIV versions and four others. The list is here. The previous NIV Bible did not include the "all," perhaps because that is absent in all of the manuscripts.

NIV Romans 3:24  and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.

The earlier NIV had - "and are justified..."

Walther followed his syphilitic Bishop's advice and even claimed OJ saved CFW's life. The LCMS, WELS, and ELS eventually forced out Justification by Faith and began exotic Biblical interpretations of Objective Justification - dynamic equivalence - Eugene Nida.

OJ False Claims

Everyone has already been forgiven, often "since the crucifixion," though others take the universalism concept back to Adam.

One variation is "guilt-free saints in Hell."

The ELCA simply states that everyone is forgiven. Their dogmatics double-volume also mocks the Trinity.

OJ Confusion

The OJ fanatics confuse themselves about the Atonement, which is clearly Jesus dying on the cross for the sins of the world. They seem blinded to the difference between the Atonement for all and Justification by faith for all who believe.

Lutherans have moved into unionism ever since Calvinism united with the state church.
