Objective Justification Errors - The Walther Four - LCMS - WELS - ELS - CLC (sic)

Part One

A. A Biblical doctrine must be taught from the Scriptures, not from the false authority of dogmatics (Barth, Bultmann, Tillich, Calvin, Walther, Scaer).

B. No expert or authority can claim a concept that opposes, distorts, or modifies Scripture.

C. We must start at the source (Chemnitz, Examination of the Council of Trent) to go where water is pure, in the Word of God.

Part Two 

1. Walther's Objective Justification claim came directly from his adulterous, syphilitic bishop - Martin Stephan - in a letter than changed Walther's life. "God has already forgiven you 1800 years ago...all men are absolved of sin." Using the Atonement, Walther replaced Christ paying for our sins with all sins instantly, universally absolved. But the Atonement is not Justification.

2. Just as bad, Walther ordered - they must "accept by faith" the absolution of the world, dated on or about the crucifixion.

3. Objective Justification also makes the Resurrection of Christ the absolution of the world. Somehow this flexible absolution includes the Atonement but also the Resurrection. One must remain in the confusion of Walther to avoid laughing out loud upon reading his dogma. His prolific writing and dictatorial leadership has brought the Walther Four into the arms of the ELCA, which also teaches universal salvation without faith in Jesus Christ.

4. Faith in Jesus Christ is a bad word for the Objective Justification salesmen. They get angry and shout, "You are making faith A WORK OF MAN!" Note the David Scaer smear. The peacock is known for his beautiful feathers and adornment, but his voice is raucous and scary.

5. Throughout the Scriptures, faith in Jesus Christ gives us access to God's grace. Romans 5:1-2 makes this very clear. Someone should rip out John, the whole Gospel

KJV John 6:28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?

29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

 6. Walther used his predestination lectures to remove the concept of faith in Christ. 

WELS - John "Sparky" Brenner still teaches this dogma.
Disagreeing with OJ = excommunication.

Items Seldom Mentioned in the Big Four - 

LCMS-WELS-ELS-CLC (sic)

• Walther had only a bachelor's degree and had minimal knowledge of the Biblical languages.
• The Walther circle was exclusively Pietistic, moving from one fearless leader to Martin Stephan after the first one died.
• Stephan studied at Halle University, where universalism, rationalism, and syphilis were common. His STD symptoms were known before he took his followers to America. He was under house arrest when they left.
• Walther kidnapped his niece and nephew from his father's parsonage. That alone was a felony.
• Walther changed the rules to make sure F. Pieper could replace him as head of the synod and the seminary. Pieper mixed Objective Justification with Justification by Faith in his Dogmatics.

 

The author Knapp was a Halle Pietist. Woods, the translator was a famous Calvinist who offered this note, which became part of the LCMS dogmatics. Walther loved it and the two Justifications found favor in Germany.
