Evidently the original “brand”, unfortunately.
But it’s not something that I ever observed disclosed while attending the LCMS’ elementary/Jr. High/ High Schools, or Universities...
Not a simple answer...
His church, Immanuel Lutheran in San Antonio, is LCMS, same as my denomination. However, on the LCMS site here he is not listed as the pastor--there is no pastor listed--and the congregation is supposed to have only 32 members. The LCMS logo is not on the church sign per Google Maps, and frankly the church looks really small--and that's saying something, given that my church has just over 70 members. The mailing address for the church, moreover, is actually the address for Holy Cross Lutheran, which has about 100 members and a pastor listed.
Finally, on Mr. Dankof's own web page he lists Valpariso and Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, which is non-denominational. This is pertinent, since to become an LCMS pastor one must have graduated from one of the two LCMS schools, in Ft. Wayne, IN and St. Louis, MO. So Mr. Dankof cannot be the pastor of Immanuel Lutheran, though he may or may not be going through the motions of performing pastoral duties there.
Bottom line: he is not an LCMS pastor by any recognizable definition of the term, he cannot speak for the LCMS, and he certainly does not speak for me, and by any fair reading of Scripture, for God.
