ELCA Leader Says It Is the 'Deepest, Darkest Dreams of So Many' ELCA Members To Kill Black People12/10/2016 If you are an ELCA member who voted for Donald Trump, are not marching with Black Lives Matter, are white, Bible-believing, conservative . . . YOU are the problem, at least in the view of liberal, wacko, Christian-in-name-only ELCA leaders. Here is a post made last week on the ELCA Facebook group by Francisco Herrera, a Ph. D student at the ELCA's LSTC who is also the "Diversity Blog Manager" at the school (see more information about him here): (Dylann Roof is an ELCA member who killed nine black people at a church in Charleston, South Carolina.) You may want to reread what Mr. Herrera said. He is stating that many ELCA members want to kill black people, that it is their "deepest, darkest dreams" to do what Dylann Roof did. This is a leader in the ELCA. Did I mention that Mr. Herrera is the Operations and Fundraising Coordinator for #decolonizeLutheranism? This is a group which has gained a huge following within the ELCA leadership. Anger and hatred for Bible-believing ELCA members is growing strong. The ELCA leadership has done its best to force its liberal, Bible-defying measures upon them. They have even convinced some members that the ELCA is right in declaring homosexual sex "good," that Israel is an evil entity, abortion is "loving," transexuals are correcting God's mistakes, converting non-Christians should not be pursued and the Bible is full of myth and mistakes. But that isn't enough, now many ELCA leaders are telling ELCA members how racist they are, that their Lutheran cultural traditions are discriminatory and that they are the problem. If you do not assimilate to all of their view points, you are the enemy. And the election of Donald Trump has greatly elevated their anger toward ELCA members who do not hold to their political, social and religious views. (see more) Here is more of the discussion from Mr. Herrera's post on the ELCA FB page: Why be a part of a denomination that treats you, and allows leadership to treat you with such contempt?

How many ELCA leaders have "deep dark dreams" about killing unborn babies, including all the unborn black babies that are aborted each year?

Found this discussion very interesting. I am lcms, but I attended an elca church for a few months a couple of years ago when I was in a temporary situation. I never felt comfortable at the elca, even though it was not the first elca church I attended. I have even attended a WELS church for a year. However lcms is my home.

So ELCA leadership says the ELCA is an almost all-white organization festering with racists? Well, they do support Planned Parenthood (as shown on this blog) and there would be twice as many African-Americans living in America today with it wasn't for Planned Parenthood (or Klan Parenthood) and abortion.

Instead of hitting upon the same old arguments, I found this article written by a leader of the ELCA. We tend to forget that they are broken (as well) and need the Theology of the Cross to get them through this. They need to be reminded that God understands their suffering because He suffered for us.
