ELCA Magazine Article Says that 2009 Decision to Ordain Practicing Homosexuals was “A Moment of Pure Grace”

​(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.)


In 2009, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America voted to ordain practicing homosexuals, thus violating Scripture and causing the largest church split in American history. Countless people have left this denomination, along with their offerings, and the denomination continues to decline.

​At its recent churchwide assembly, the ELCA voted to celebrate and affirm its 2009 decision, in spite of having to close and merge seminaries because of the financial crisis. The below link is an article from the ELCA’s national magazine in which a lesbian pastor rejoices that the ELCA decided to ordain her.  The vote “was a moment of pure gospel”.  (See link at the bottom of this article)

Rev. Tom Brock

God Himself and His Word are opposed to what the ELCA is doing.  The ELCA churchwide assembly even voted down a delegate-by 97%- who tried to affirm that Jesus is the only way of salvation (John 14:6).  

“Do not be deceived, God is not mocked, for whatever a man shows that also he shall reap” (Galatians 6:7).

In Jesus our Savior,

Pastor Tom Brock
