Johannes “Joh” Bjelke-Petersen the Lutheran Premier

Joh was born in New Zealand in 1911 to a Danish Lutheran Pastor.
In 1913 the family moved to Australia near Kingaroy, QLD
The family became life long members of St. John’s Lutheran Church Kingaroy, then a member of United German and Scandinavian Lutheran Synod of Queensland
In 1921 the congregation would join the new United Evangelical Lutheran Church in Australia and in 1966 the new Lutheran Church of Australia

Joh is most famous for being Queensland’s longest premier (19years)

From birth to death he remained a devoted Lutheran attending weekly Sunday services

Recently learnt that the Seven Deadly Sins are never listed in Scripture but were a list compiled by the Church Fathers.

However, Proverbs 6:16-19 does provide a list of Seven Detestable Things:
The Lord hates six things;
in fact, seven are detestable to him:
arrogant eyes, a lying tongue,
hands that shed innocent blood,
a heart that plots wicked schemes,
feet eager to run to evil,
a lying witness who gives false testimony,
and one who stirs up trouble among brothers.

Based on this I thought I'd produce my own (Bible Based) list of Seven Deadly Sins.

Though in order to distinguish this new (Biblical) list from the traditional list, I will just call this list the Seven Detestable Things:
Prideful
Deceitful
Murderous
Devious
Concupiscent
Slanderous
Contentious

"Shed for you" or "Shed for you and for many" 16/07/2023

I need to make a correction
In my video I stated that my church is the only Lutheran congregation since the early 1900s to say “for you and for many” during the Words of Institution
I was recently made aware that I am not the only Lutheran congregation to do this, nor even the first
Pastor Troy Harris of St. Jude’s in Melbourne has been doing it for years
I am actually glad to see I am not alone

I’ve said some controversial things in the past which has upset people

I never thought saying “orthodox people need to break fellowship with heterodox people” would be the most controversial and upset the most people

Church fellowship must be based on agreement in all matters of doctrine.

As Martin Luther taught:
"the doctrine, must be absolutely pure and uncorrput, clear and bright, so that not a particle of darkness, not even a little cloud, can be noticed in it...
All articles of our Christian faith are one and again that one is all, so that if they surrender one, they in the course of time will gradually surrender all, one after the other; for they all cleave together and belong together."
(Luther's detailed interpretation of the Epistle to the Galatians, comments on Galatians 5:9 "a little leaven leavens the whole lump")

04/07/2023

The Book of Concord teaches that we have a command to separate from false teachers and to leave heterodox church bodies:

In the Treatise on the Power and Primacy of the Pope Melanchthon writes:
"It is indeed difficult for us to separate from so many lands and people and teach a different doctrine. But here is God's Command [referring to the previously quoted 2 Cor. 6:14] that everyone should take care and not consent to those who teach false doctrine or intend to uphold it by tyranny." (.41)
