  Seminex - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Seminex is the widely used abbreviation for Concordia Seminary in Exile (later Christ Seminary-Seminex).
Seminex began in February 1974 as a protest against the suspension of the Reverend Dr. John Tietjen as president of Concordia Seminary, and against charges of the teaching of "false doctrine" that were leveled against members of the seminary faculty.
Since Seminex was not yet an accredited school, a deal was arranged with the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago (LSTC) whereby the first class of Seminex graduates would officially receive their diplomas from LSTC.

Because Seminex and the related departures of the AELC congregations removed many moderates and liberals from the Missouri Synod, the controversy left the synod far more conservative in mood by the mid-1970s than it had been a decade earlier.

In addition, it was torn between positioning itself solely as the seminary for the AELC, which would have made it difficult to continue to solicit donations from moderate and liberal Missouri Synod benefactors who nevertheless did not leave that synod, and reshaping itself as a "pan-Lutheran" seminary that would serve many different Lutheran church bodies.
The last St. Louis commencement was held in May 1983, although Seminex continued to exist as an educational institution on the LSTC campus in Chicago through the end of 1987.
Because Seminex and the related defection of the AELC congregations removed many moderates and liberals from the Missouri Synod, the controversy left the synod far more conservative in mood by the mid-1970s than it had been a decade earlier.

 Schism Memoirs
The memoirs begin with Tietjen’s election to the presidency of Concordia and conclude in 1987 with the formation of a new denomination, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
The denominational debate which enveloped Concordia Seminary subsequently led to Tietjen’s suspension as president, the termination of a large segment of the faculty, and the founding of Seminex, Concordia Seminary in Exile.
As a result of that union, Seminex was absorbed into several Lutheran seminaries and ceased to exist as a separate institution.

 Thursday Theology - Seminex Remembered--Strange and Wonderful
These were Missouri Synod parishes and individuals who claimed that Seminex was still "their" seminary, even though now set adrift by those in power in the synod.
We Seminexers are in exile, quoth he, not from the Missouri Synod to which we might be hoping someday to return --though that is what most (all?) of us thought at first.
Methinks we signalled our exhaustion (and Seminex was wearying), not our excitement (some things were just too strange and not wonderful at all), and hardly any Melchizedekian chutzpah (ala Hebrews) to "keep on truckin'" toward a future we could not clearly see.

The conference's 800 delegates promised moral and financial support for church members who faced pressure due to their opposition to LCMS convention actions, and established ELIM as a network and rallying point for the moderate wing of the LCMS.
The AELC did play an important role in efforts toward Lutheran unity in the United States.
In particular, the AELC's leaders, Seminex president John Tietjen among them, served as the catalyst for merger talks between two other Lutheran church bodies: the American Lutheran Church (with approximately 2.25 million members), and the Lutheran Church in America (with approximately 2.85 million members).
