Reading #Susanna this morning was a great experience. I wish my fellow #Protestants would embrace the traditional position regarding these texts—as second only to the Cannon—and embrace their study. Many modern controversies can be resolved by informed reading of these texts. #LCMS #AALC #Lutheran
The Frankfurter claims knowledge of the Christ is found by becoming a disciple and member the community of the believers. Individual study—says the Frankfurter—can be a detriment and undermine knowledge of Christ because it leads to self-glory. #lent #lutheran #lcms #aalc #TheologiaGermanics
The Frankfurter contrasts Christ’s life with the libertine life. Our culture celebrates the libertine life as the idyllic life. But it is the truly countercultural Christ-like life, which our nature hates, that is noble, good, and dear. #lent #lutheran #aalc #lcms #TheologiaGermanica
The Frankfurter muses about a world without sin—that is, the new heaven and new Earth. I feel a hint of mourning in his words. Humanity’s ultimate loyalty is to his self-dom, so, instead of paradise, we live in a world of suffering. #lent #lutheran #lcms #aalc #TheologiaGermanica
The Frankfurter was as bold lipped as #Luther, which is probably a source of Luther’s affinity towards #TheologiaGermanica. The Frankfurter here ties self love to both the Adamic Man and Satan. True obedience to Christ stands against these things. #lutheran #lcms #aalc
Lent is about self-examination. The Frankfurter provides a definition of “true obedience” to aid us. Lent is a special time when confront our “selfdom” head-on. #lent #lcms #aalc #lutheran #TheologiaGermanica
The Frankfurter contrasts the World’s gifts with Christ’s gifts. The peace the World offers is a mirage, while the peace Christ gives his true and pure. #lent #lutheran #lcms #aalc #TheologiaGermanica
For the Frankfurter, true contrition leads one into a “Dark Night of the Soul.” God then saves this man from both his sin and this hell. #lent #lcms #aalc #lutheran #TheologiaGermanica
The Frankfurther echoes #Boethius (the last of the Ancient Christians) that sin prevents all of us from truly loving God. Sin prevents us from recognizing love itself. #Lutheran #LCMS #AALC #TheologiaGermanica
The Frankfurter notes again that claiming Goodness is self-realized is sin. Goodness is a divine characteristic that we participate. It is not something man can posses. #lent #lcms #aalc #lutheran #TheologiaGermanica
The Frankfurter notes that the nature of sin—even that of Satan’s great fall—is when we take ownership over the Good above and against God. #lent #lcms #aalc #lutheran #TheologiaGermanica
The Frankfurter notes the Soul is a creaturely thing—standing against Gnostics who might claim the Soul is by its nature of the same substance as God. #lent #lcms #lutheran #aalc #TheologiaGermanica
Hey #Lutheran & #Christianity BlueSky! Here is my reading list through Eastertide. Any suggestions for Ordinary Time? #LCMS #AALC
