Any idea who wrote it? <br /><br /> "The attempts, in committees, councils and assemblies, to hammer out agreement among Protestant groups may eventually (so the critics fear) submerge all sharp theology in a syrup of good will and compromise."Rev.

Since this article, Pelikan's famous dictum of the "ELCA becoming Methodist and the LCMS becoming Baptist" can be set against the Lutheranism that was described in this particular article some 50+ years ago and found to be an accurate assessment of how things have turned out over that same time period.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06200319733737651773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291232.post-52285212788616753332010-06-19T21:22:17.560-05:002010-06-19T21:22:17.560-05:00Famous in the sense of being Lutherans time in the...Famous in the sense of being Lutherans time in the lime-light - largely squandered and tossed to the winds.<br /><br />Pr Brown - amen!
