I was part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America. They rafted a bunch of denominations in "unity" and wanted to "allow" all the differences. Next thing you know every practice imaginable was the lowest common denominator. They lost half their congregants. A bunch of Methodist and Episcopalian Churches did the same thing within a decade. I have always understood it was demonic influence allowed by local church boards and a lot of 'educated' liberal commie types spearheading the operations under a banner of love and tolerance. I remember as a young kid my mom pleading 'Do not go against Biblical mandates, for the love of God! How can we be christian and allow this, we stand for nothing." We got out of there with a lot of other people. A lot of people in those other denominations have told me the same story.
It always begins with doctrinal compromise and cracking the door open for Satan. Bring in women and/or LGBTQ to leadership, fix them to the pulpit and you’ve got a dying church and denomination.
Women in the pulpit is cancer for the church. Arm them with LGBTQ ideology and you’ve got turbo cancer. ⛪️ ⚰️ 🔥
I totally agree. When my former church hired a female pastor it was all downhill from there. They regularly fly the rainbow flag, and have a ministry for teenage Trannys.
Well said! Women have their unique gidtedness and special services to the church and for children and to one another. The world views it as sexist or diminishing but I view it as elevating and honoring as their role and place in creation with equal value and worth as men before God.
My entire family bailed on the ELCA. The church where we were members is now a total train wreck. They're promoting the Trans movement, gay movement, and like to think of themselves as "activists". Such a lovely church and congregation, now it's a piece of s*it.
Smart Pastor. I watched the gradual demise of a church I loved. It started with a liberal female pastor, and a few Lesbian members, and it's been down hill ever since. My family and I left about twenty years ago, we could see where it was headed.
