ELCA Lutheran leadership: If no one goes to Hell, lets talk about....climate change

5/16/2022

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

A few years ago a Chicago newspaper asked Elizabeth Eaton, head bishop of the liberal Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, "Is there a Hell?" Her response: "There may be, but I think it's empty." I am not aware of one time when Bishop Eaton wrote or talked about the centrality of reaching lost souls with the saving gospel of Christ.

So if everyone is saved, the ELCA must find other things to do with its time and money. For Bishop Eaton, that has included producing two gay pride videos and the recent video below about "climate justice".

Go to elca.org and look through the ELCA's news releases and you will find much mention of liberal political causes. Sadly, evangelism is rarely mentioned and pro-life issues are absent. In fact, Eaton in a press release some time ago reminded people that the ELCA supports abortion rights.

I hope you attend a good church that preaches what Jesus preached: There is a heaven and a hell and it is only through faith in Jesus Christ that we can be saved (John 14:6, Acts 4:12, Acts 16:31).

In Christ,

Pastor Tom Brock

The ELCA never runs into the devil because they are both headed in the same direction.

Any resemblance of the ELCA to an actual Christian church is purely illusory. The ELCA's words and actions prove it to be a full-time employee of the world, Planned Parenthood, and the Democrat Party.

And Isaiah pronounces God's judgment on His secular and religious enemies:

'Woe to Those Who Call Evil Good'
-- https://stream.org/woe-to-those-who-call-evil-good/

[…] "It’s been said that not even Sodom and Gomorrah reached the level of decadence that we see today in America. . .

"When Isaiah pronounced this 'woe,' the nation of Israel had become comfortable in their sin. Moral conviction was fading and obedience to God was passé. As a result, they began to compromise and drift further from God. They were calling evil good and good evil. Two of the top evils were infanticide (laying their newborn children on the searing hot arms of Molech as a sacrifice) and sexual sin. Ring a bell? We still sacrifice our children on the altar of sexual sin.

"As I’m writing this, the news just broke of Justice Alito’s thoughts on Roe v. Wade. The news that this law might be overturned has created a huge uproar. Imagine being angry that babies will live — 'woe be to those who call good evil.'

"Israel, not unlike America today, paid no attention as their leaders seduced them to do more evil than any other nation before them. (2 Kings 21:9) They failed to see that when sin fascinates, it assassinates.

"Can You Hear Isaiah Today? I Sure Can.

" ** Woe to the school districts that promote sexual perversion and undermine the family.
** Woe to the universities that mock God and teach their students to do the same.
** Woe to politicians who call evil good and good evil, and have the blood of the innocent on their hands.
** Woe to pastors and Christian leaders who encourage sin by their silence, and who openly embrace apostasy.
** Woe to the media who lead people astray by twisting the truth to promote the demonic agenda of darkness.
** Woe to the film industry that bows to the whore of Babylon — the stench has reached the nostrils of God.
** Woe to liberal churches who say that they love people, but hate God’s Word.

[…]"Why do certain groups seek to silence God’s truth and adamantly oppose His Word, whereas Christians are open to dialogue and discussion? It’s because the truth invites scrutiny, and error runs from being challenged. It also has to do with the darkness hating the light because their deeds are evil. In short, God’s Word exposes evil hearts and demonic plans. . ."
