The mainlines, cults, and sects should examine their efforts to devour themselves and howl for even more stuff. For example, the WELS and ELS sects have built new museums - I mean gyms - a few miles from each other, for the cost of $15 million or so. But of course, one should always build new buildings for a shrinking population. Gyms are far more crucial to education than academic topics and digital books. I doubt whether books with real covers and binding are opened very often.
If the rich adulterer paid for the shiny new buildings - no problem - free! The only problem is the inevitable breakdown of equipment and the changing needs of the users.
Best of all, the Big Five Apostates - ELCA-LCMS-WELS-ELS-CLC (sic) - have built a 10 lane super highway to destruction. Originally, the Christian Faith spread rapidly from the start, because they relied on the Word of God, not the desert guy's trophies (carved in his name).
Here is a little quiz, actually a gigantic puzzle solved in a few words. This puzzle is so obvious that hardly anyone in the Big Five can explain it. I am willing to share it at no cost whatsoever, though the winners will be shunned, abused, stink-eyed, and deprived of everything.
OK. Wait for it.
KJV John 16, Jesus speaking...
7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you.
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;
Thus the only task of the Church is to teach the sin of not believing in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, born of the Virgin Mary, teaching the Faith, healing the sick, offering miracles, suffering death on the cross, rising from the grave, ascending into Heaven.
