What are the Differences between Traditional Theology and Revisionist Theology?
In his report to the 2007 ELCIC National Convention, (page E-4) National Bishop Ray Schultz in a very unwelcoming gesture takes a swipe at those who confess the Scriptures as the Word of God and the Lutheran Confessions as witnesses to the way in which the Holy Scriptures have been correctly understood and explained. According to the bishop, those members of the ELCIC who uphold such traditional Lutheran theology are nothing less than "a separatist political movement", a "divisive movement" within the church whose "real agenda is the struggle for authority and control". However, according to Pastor Dr. Lothar Schwabe that which is causing division in this church is the existence of two incompatible theologies. In this article Dr. Schwabe sketches out the differences between these two theologies.
