@xaris4ujonathan ....Obscure??? His book on Law and Gospel is so up to date, it should be read by every serious christian today.

Er… With all the issues that are facing American Christianity today - could someone explain the evangelistic significance of this veneration of an obscure LCMS figure-head?

@xaris4ujonathan
Also, I'm not sure how one can watch this & come away with the idea that Walther is being venerated here. Remembered & commemorated, yes. Giving thanks for the work he did in the LC-MS, especially as noted in my other comment of helping us preach God's Word rightly. Walther wasn't a figure head in the LC-MS, but its president during its early history & through many tumultuous times, always endeavoring to bring the church back to the Word of God.

Pr Harrison explains how Walther's teaching on Law & Gospel helps us to preach God's Word rightly, to properly apply the Law to unrepentant sinners & to comfort repentant sinners with the Good News of what Jesus has done for us. Properly preaching & teaching God's Word is AT THE HEART of all the issues facing the church today & not just in America.
