Paul O. Wendland, President of Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary appeals for money to support Huberism at the seminary
In a brochure mailed to WELS constituents just in time for the 2011 Christmas season, Wendland asks the question:
"Who would think that a BABY born in a stable would save the world?"
Who would think?
Well, despite a sin-filled world telling us otherwise, we do. And the world scoffs at us. We have been called fools, zealots, extremists, and fanatics for believing that a baby born in a stable could save the world....
Because we know this good news, we want to share it....
That's why what we do as your seminary is so important. We prepare young men to proclaim this life-saving gospel in your congregations, in your mission fields, and to your neighbors. We prepare them to declare, "This is what our God has done" to a world that so desperately needs to hear it....
... please consider a gift in support of Christ's mission here at your seminary....
Sounds like Huberism to me. The message Jesus gave his disciples was one of repentance for the forgiveness of sins (cf. Luke 24:47). Nothing like that in Wendland's appeal for money.

GJ - How sad to have an institution devoted to Universalism while calling itself a beacon of Confessional Lutheranism. The faculty warns students against justification by faith quotations in their own materials.
DP Buchholz denies Universalism in WELS and yet also says exactly the same thing. Correct - Jesus redeemed the entire world, paying for its sins. Wrong - Jesus saved the entire world, which is now free from sin.
Thanks to the corrosive effects of UOJ, the leadership of the Olde Synodical Conference believes nothing and loves only money.

Because the false doctrine of UOJ is a new and different gospel that is condemned by God, those who reject the truth and cling to UOJ are blinded by their own unbelief. Buchholz, Zarling, Wendland, Ski, Schroeder, Webber, Lillo, Schewe, Jeske and the rest, but by the grace of God, will continue to protect their egos, glory in their shame, worshiping the earthly Synod and destroying the eternal lives of men, women and chilren, clergy and laity alike.
Hochmuth is but a visual reminder of what these false teachers are doing to thousands of children spiritually.
Galations 1:6-9, "I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed."
