I continue to pray and advocate for the disaffected Christians cast out and shunned by the LCMS and the WELS who sadly utilize a 'precious Means of Grace' (Holy Communion) in the judgment, sentencing and punishment of believing, saved sinners somehow deemed worse than they are. Banning professing believers in Christ's PERFECT atonement from coming to HIS gift, a gift unmatched in this earthly realm, because why? They don't believe every single article of the LCMS doctrine? They don't carry an LCMS membership card? At least the LDS is up front and ope and requires such a Temple Recommend card to worship and worse than those, using sinful men's judgments of other believers' heart, faith and sin and putting up the yellow police tape to cordon off the chancel and restrict the distribution of JESUS' pure gift is simply un-Gospel-like. Synod leadership bemoans our declining numbers and backdoor losses and encourages the masses to produce more children all the while using legalistic, "command and control" tactics to beat down fellow sinner/saints and exclude them from FULL WORSHIP and yes, even to access the precious Eucharistic Gift that Jesus bestowed even upon the betrayer Judas and the thrice denier Peter. There is only ONE judgment allowed in the church: full excommunication of anyone stating unbelief or heresy. That's it. No "self-exclusion" or "church discipline" is recorded in any of Christ's teachings. And yet, the LCMS continues to practice the inanity and even insanity of doing the same bad things over and over and expecting different results. The sick need the doctor and hospital and the spiritually sick (ALL OF US, especially the faithful) need pastors and the church as a SANCTUARY and not to be subject to court room antics. We need the pure Gospel, not more 'Ugly Religion' and until our leadership realizes their follies and repents and educates the misled lay folks as to this rotten doctrine, the declines will continue. At what point of decay will they and many of you decide that we need to go back to ministering the pure Gospel, preaching Law and Gospel both....mentoring, coming along side hurting people caught in chronic sin and instead of pounding them with putrid punishments fit for criminals and unbelievers?

What did he say that was heretical? Can you give a timestamp?
