If All Else Fails, Try Common Sense

Oh No! The Faithians can be found at Concordia Publishing House, cash cow of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod.

I am the consultant for the Big Five - ELCA-LCMS-WELS-ELS-CLC (sic) - no fees since they have buried as many widows' estates as they can. Even then, I have no craving for their loot, since we run in the black and need no expensive campaigns and salesmen. Desperate attempts to use AI have failed to discover clever slogans to escape their upcoming financial meltdown. They imagine they know "all about the numbers."

Bulk discounts!


The Big Five are grouped together because of their wrong-headed attitudes. For instance, they are so threatened about their membership that they come across as elitist, nasty, smug, and bigoted. One must fit in - under their microscopes - to stay. The trouble is - they have no faith in Jesus Christ and must add something to replace John 16:8-9.

KJV John 16:8 And when He is come, He will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 9 Of sin, because they believe not on Me;

Luther condensed that even more succinctly with "faith equals righteousness." The Big Five  rejects the "faithians" - claiming their own themes, shouting in anger - "You are making faith a work of man!" 

ELCA only deals in grace - no faith - amazing! They are purifying themselves by quashing the few remaining Faithians and glorifying their alternative clergy. One ALPB  Ovaltine - an ELCA pastor with 10,000 posts on their discussion page - was arrested and placed in the slammer. Nobody noticed. Anyone denouncing this would be considered insensitive.

The Walther Four - LCMS-WELS-ELS-CLC (sic) - should be united in their cranial confusion, but they fear the intermingling of DNA - bragging about their ancestors. They keep flogging the pristine nature of CFW Walther's Complete Works, which are all about him.

Walther's clergy circle knew all about Bishop Martin Stephan's adultery, since his #1 mistress sailed with Ferdie to America in the leader's cabin, near Walther's oldest son. Stephan's wife and remaining children were left in Germany.












This has to be the most humorous or sardonic book of the Great Walther.
