(The following article was written by Rev. Tom Brock of pastorsstudy.org. You can follow Pastor Brock on Facebook - here and Twitter - here.)
The below is written by a pastor of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America as her "personal response to countless anti-choice laws at the state level". How can pastors who believe in the Bible, Psalm 119 and 'Thou shalt not kill' support abortion? They can't. But below you will see a pastor try to defend abortion with statements like: "I have reason to believe the Kingdom of God is like a woman who knows herself, who believes she is worth more than what the Empires of this world decide about her body". Sadly, the below article, radical as it is, is not radical in the ELCA. The ELCA pays for abortion for any reason in the denomination's healthcare plan, which is funded by offering dollars. And recently ELCA head bishop Elizabeth Eaton, also in response to states' attempts to restrict abortion, issued a letter reminding people that the ELCA believes in abortion access. How the Lord of Life must grieve that the ELCA, the United Church of Christ, the Episcopal Church in America and the Presbyterian Church USA all support laws that enable 3000 babies to be killed in America daily.

Ukraine is struggling to fight off superior Russian forces while our military leadership is taking 'transgender training.' You don't think Putin and Xi are seeing this rot and decline in this country? Look at the complete debacle in Afghanistan, you think the world has not seen this laughingstock of a "leader" in our country?? What denomination is actively aiding and abetting this rot? Hmmm? Tough times ahead. Pray.
