You may like Glenn Beck or you may not, but he hits the nail on the head in this video segment.  Please check it out and forward the video on to all your friends; the ELCA is part of the problem of which he speaks.
It gives me no pleasure to say, but the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America has taken the side of those that are against truth and against Israel.  The ELCA has chosen the path of hate.  They are part of this evil that Mr. Beck so clearly points out. 

The ELCA has sided against Israel continually (see here). Our denomination is actively seeking a boycott of Israeli goods and of USA companies which do business with Israel. (see here) One of the leading theologians in the Lutheran church, Carl Braaten said the ELCA is anti-Semitic. (read here) The ELCA calls Israel “occupiers.”  They use all kinds of bias rhetoric against Israel.  The ELCA condemns Israel at every turn, yet they say nothing about the atrocities committed against the Jews.  The ELCA website even says that Christians who support Israel are following heresy and these Christians “are actually anti-Semitic.”  (see here)

David Housholder, former ELCA pastor and current blogger on an official ELCA website, just recently wrote questioning whether the people in Israel are really Biblical Jews.  Later he says “(t)he Bible is ambiguous as to whether Israel is a physical or a spiritual nation.”  (see here and here)

So why is our denomination taking the opinions and talking points put out by anti-Semitic terrorists as its own?  The ELCA is taking it in and regurgitating this anti-Semitic propaganda.  Its wrong! Stand up to it, denounce it and reject it.

In a time when hate towards Israel grows every day, we need to stand for the truth.  I agree with Mr. Beck.  I will stand with Israel.
