ELCA head bishop “stands with Muslims” against Trump’s “racist and bigoted” travel ban

6/17/2025

(The following article was written by Rev. Tom Brock of pastorsstudy.org. You can follow Pastor Brock on Facebook - here and X - here.)

In yet another political pronouncement, Elizabeth Eaton, head bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, has taken a stand against President Trump. She states that his travel ban will do nothing to bring safety and that it smacks of racial discrimination and bigotry.

This is the same head bishop who, during the Biden administration, went to the White House to lobby for abortion rights. If you go to elca.org and look through Eaton’s press releases, you will find one political cause after another. You will never find advocacy for the unborn. You will not find much about evangelism or bringing lost people to Christ. Eaton has said that converting people “is not so much the work of the church, that’s God‘s job”. She has also stated that Hell may exist, but if it does, she believes it is empty.

So if the Church’s job is not so much about converting people to Christ and if everyone goes to Heaven, to what will the ELCA devote its time and money? Political cause after political cause.

In Christ,

Pastor Tom Brock

ELCA Lutheran denomination has zeal for social issues, but not for the salvation of the lost…

(The following article was written last year by Rev. Tom Brock of pastorsstudy.org. You can follow Pastor Brock on Facebook - here and Twitter - here.)

​Below is the latest news item from the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Yes, we should all be against racism, but I have a friend who left his ELCA church because of the constant mention of white supremacy from the pulpit. Look through the news releases at elca.org and you will see liberal politics and various social issues mentioned regularly but rarely anything about evangelism, missions and bringing lost people to Christ. Indeed, Elizabeth Eaton, head Bishop of the ELCA, has said that if hell exists, she believes it is empty. So, if everybody is going to heaven, what will the ELCA do with its time and money? Promote liberal politics. This was never more evident than when some states were passing minor restrictions on abortion and Eaton reminded people that the ELCA supports abortion rights. Indeed, the ELCA pays for abortions for any reason whatsoever in its denomination’s healthcare plan, which is funded by offering dollars.

In Christ,

Pastor Tom Brock

As Advent Begins, Liberal Denominations Stress Dismantling Racism and White Supremacy

12/7/2020

5 Comments

 
(The following article was written by Rev. Tom Brock of pastorsstudy.org. You can follow Pastor Brock on Facebook - here and Twitter - here.)

Certainly Christians should oppose racism and white supremacy, but that is not the message of Advent. The word "Advent" means "coming" in Latin and refers to the four weeks prior to Christmas when Christians think about Christ's Second Coming at the end of time when he will raise the dead and judge the world. It is a time of self-examination and repentance from sin so that we may properly celebrate Christmas when it arrives.

But in the Advent message below, liberal denominations have turned Advent into a time to fight racism. In the "Advent" message below, you will find no zeal for the salvation of the lost and bringing people to Christ before the 2nd Coming. The head bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America has stated that she believes Hell, if it exists, is empty. You will also find no mention of repenting from the sexual sins of our culture like pornography, pre-marital sex, abortion and homosexuality because these denominations endorse abortion rights and homosexual relationships.

You will also notice below, they don't talk about the "kIngdom" of God but the "kin-dom" of God. Feminism is big in the below denominations and some think the word "kingdom" is too male and oppressive so they have invented a new word. This contradicts the fact that Jesus repeatedly preached about the Kingdom of God.
​
As we are now in the season of Advent, let us repent of racism, but let us also repent of our lukewarmness in bringing lost people to saving faith in Christ. And, yes, lost people do need to come to Christ to be saved.

In Jesus the only Savior (John 14:6),

Pastor
Tom Brock

The ELCA's Embrace of Lenny Duncan

10/1/2020

5 Comments

 
Lenny Duncan is a highly controversial pastor in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.  It should surprise no one that he and his radical message have been embrace by the denomination's leadership and pastors, who are paid by conservative, Bible-believing membership. 

A recent article talks about Rev. Duncan and his former church, Jehu's Table, saying, "At Jehu’s Table church in Brooklyn, New York, Duncan proclaims his gratitude during Communion for African American role models ranging from transgender activist Marsha P. Johnson to Nation of Islam leader Malcolm X to civil rights minister Martin Luther King Jr." (See here) 


​Below you can read what Pastor Duncan is about and what he is saying.  You will also see that the ELCA has embraced Rev. Lenny Duncan all the way up to the highest of ELCA leaders.  

-  The official ELCA magazine published an article written by Rev. Duncan where he says,

​"I believe that the call of the church in the 21st century is to dismantle white supremacy; that the way of the cross for the entire church is to lay down our lives, resources, buildings and endowments to this cause. That our entire future as a church and as a credible, viable Lutheran witness in the 21st century and beyond is balanced on this alone."

And,

"Our church is the place to have hard and loving conversations that call us to repentance and reparations..." (See Living Lutheran article here)
​
Rev. Duncan then says implementing his vision for the ELCA will bring about 
church vitality, that sanctuaries will swell.
​
-  “You can't have reconciliation without repentance. Until the ELCA recognizes the way that it's treated persons of color, specifically black folks, and until they realize their style of church is inherently racist and repent from that, until they talk about reparations to the children of pastors who were never paid full salaries, then I don't think there can be reconciliation.” -  Lenny Duncan (See here)

-  As a form of reparations, Rev. Duncan also advocates for,  "..all straight white males in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America to remove their names from ballots for bishop." (See here)

-  Fortress Press, Rev. Lenny Duncan's publisher, describes Rev. Duncan's book saying, "It is time for the church to rise up, dust itself off, and take on forces of this world that act against God: whiteness, misogyny, nationalism, homophobia, and economic injustice. Duncan gives a blueprint for the way forward and urges us to follow in the revolutionary path of Jesus." (See here)

Dear Houston-today at Kindred in Montrose we are talking #DearChurch and I get to do Q and A with the amazing @rozellahw the author of #LoveBig and Bishop Mike of the @GulfCoastSynod. We are going to talk dismantling white supremacy in the @ELCA. See y’all at 7.

-  Rev. Duncan now has a new job as the Mission Developer Pastor an ELCA church, Messiah Lutheran Church and Preschool in Vancouver, Washington.

Currently, Rev. Duncan is writing blogs calling for the ELCA to pay reparations. (See the first of four, so far, here)  Pastor Duncan is throwing ELCA higher ups under the bus and making things difficult for the ELCA with his anger, race baiting and demands. This should be no surprise to those who know history.

ELCA Pastor Calls President Trump a Racist and White Supremacist in Sermon

7/23/2020

6 Comments

 
In a sermon given on July 12, 2020, Rev. Mark Knutson, a pastor in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), makes an egregious statement:

“…how can you preach about joy when the administration of this land is so out of touch?  How can you preach about joy when a president is a racist and white supremacist…” (see video here starting at 36:25)

It shouldn't surprise us that a radical, Bible-twisting denomination like the ELCA has pastors who call our president a racist and white supremacist, but it is certainly disturbing, none-the-less.  

Rev. Knutson continued on by saying the president “goes after Bubba Wallace...”, a black NASCAR driver who made news last month with the what-proved-to-be false claim that someone put a noose in his NASCAR garage.  Pastor Mark Knutson then repeats that false claim, that someone placed a noose in Wallace's garage stall, despite it having been proven to be false, weeks ago. 

This same pastor made news recently for prominently applauding speakers at a highly controversial rally, according to Gateway Pundit news site. See here and here.  According to the article, one rally speaker called for the abolition of the United States and another advocated for violent protests.

If you are a part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, you need to know that your money supports radical pastors and policies and extremely liberal political viewpoints.

ELCA Tries to Implicate Israel in the Killing of George Floyd

7/2/2020

3 Comments

 
In an ugly display of anti-Semitism, the ELCA, which continually demonizes Israel, came out with a series of articles and news releases against Israel for what the ELCA views as the annexation of Palestinian land.  The ELCA writes that they want "liberation not annexation."  In truth, Israel is "extend(ing) its rightful sovereignty over Judea and Samaria." (Quote from here) 

But the ELCA showed their anti-Semitic cards, in plain sight, when in a news article the ELCA tried to point to Israel as a reason George Floyd died:
​
"The Rev. Rafael Malpica Padilla, executive director of ELCA Global Mission, said that one should be aware of the connection between the Israeli government’s repressive tactics against Palestinians and those taking place against people of color in a number of localities around the United States.

'As it has been reported, the kind of police tactics used to kill George Floyd are among those taught to a number of police departments that have taken part in training by Israeli police and military forces,” Malpica Padilla said. “For example, 100 Minneapolis police officers received counterterrorism training from Israelis at a conference held in 2012.'” (Read here) 


It is disgusting that the ELCA is trying to capitalize on the wrongful death of George Floyd and the anger this has generated, to try to infuriate people against the only Jewish country.  How can anyone stay, support and pay the salaries of people who would do such a thing?  Read more about the ELCA's demonization of Israel here.

Kathryn Mary Lohre, Assistant to the Presiding Bishop of the ELCA and Executive for Ecumenical and Inter-Religious Relations & Theological Discernment, 
writes on the ELCA website about this action of Israel, calling Israel racist toward "Palestinians."  She also tries to connect George Floyd and racism in America to what is happening with Israel toward "Palestinians" in a biased advocacy letter, she says:

"The racism that has kneeled on the necks of Black Americans for 400 years is part of the same global pandemic as the racism that has been kneeling on the necks of Palestinians for 53 years of military occupation, and that has been even more suffocating under Israel’s nation state law, adopted in 2018." (See here)

ELCA's top bishop Elizabeth Eaton is so passionate about advocating against Israel that she took to her official Twitter account to display more of her biased understanding of the Israeli situation:

After Uproar Over Posting a Bible Verse, ELCA Apologizes 'that the language in this post has caused harm'

2/13/2020

14 Comments

 

​The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America is growing more and more radical. Upon the denomination sharing a graphic on the ELCA Facebook page (pictured on the right), with the Bible verse "God is Light in Him there is no darkness at all 
​1 John 1:5" the ELCA's radical base came out firing.  
Picture
The first person to post a critical comment wrote, "Please consider the racial implications of what you are saying here. There is no darkness in him- really??? I assume exclusion (from God) is not your intent, but that is the impact. Please apologize and remove this post."

Another wrote, "Please don't ever again pretend to be confused about why we're 97% white. This post tells me so much about how my church is in relationship to my dark skin."
​
A ELCA pastor also replied, "Just because it’s a bible verse does not mean it can’t be used to inflict harm on our siblings of color and perpetuate systemic racism in a church that is 98% white. The bible has been used to silence women, oppress LGBTQIA+ persons, and justify slavery. We need to choose our imagery carefully. We need to do better and not (unintentionally or not) alienate our fellow siblings in the body of Christ."


And they went on blast mode from there, so much so that the ELCA had to edit their Bible verse image post with an addition: 

"Dear siblings in Christ, 

We have been paying very close attention to the conversation created by this post. Thank you all who have voiced your experiences and concerns regarding the language used.

The verse shared here comes from last week’s lectionary readings. As themes of darkness and light will appear again in lectionary readings later in Lent, we have chosen to leave this post and its discussion here so that it can inspire deeper conversation and reflection as we prepare for the season ahead.

We apologize that the language in this post has caused harm, and we recognize that this image can be a painful reminder of the harmful power dynamics, racism and inequity that exist in this church. It is our responsibility to be intentional in our use of images and language. We are committed to this work, and we are committed to learning from our mistakes."  
See the ELCA Facebook post here
 or below.

So, not only are ELCAites upset and viewing this Bible verse as racial, but the ELCA responds by apologizing for the pain people may feel from quoting it. 

Who wants to support the ELCA and worship in a denomination that does that? The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America apologized for quoting God's Word, for saying "God is Light, in Him there is no darkness at all." Shame on them and shame on anyone who remains in this denomination.
​

Not surprising, the ELCA went on to say this,
