The Roman solders mocked Jesus the day they crucified Him (Mark 15:16-20). Today we have an ELCA seminary professor, and the institution which employs her, doing the same.
The Rev. Wil Gafney is an Associate Professor of Hebrew and Old Testament at The Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia, an ELCA seminary. Incredulously, Rev. Gafney has a habit of mocking and insulting Jesus (see past blog here). It seems Rev. Gafney revels in it. This time the ELCA seminary professor placed an image on her website of the “Last Supper” where Jesus and His disciples are depicted as women. (see here) We all know that calling a person of one gender, the opposite gender, is extremely insulting. Rev. Gafney, a professor and educator of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, whose job is to instruct future leaders and pastors in the denomination, continues to intentionally insult the King of Kings, Jesus Christ. More on Rev. Gafney next week...

Lovely. Words are powerful but pictures are more powerful.

Yeah, Wil Gafney, you’re a feminist first, last and always. We knew that. Yeah, they’re all womyn. We figured they’d be. Big deal.

Bravo, Didaskalos. A+. What do you think of Gafney's "unrepentant," "ash heap" theology and Bible translation, and her "alright" god? Actually, I welcome them. By pushing her views and issues to the extreme, she makes their absurdity more evident. The agendas of the antichrist: "Do whatever you feel like especially in sexual matters" and "Females, grab power!," become so much more obvious.

Gafney's sermon itself isn’t redolent with specific ELCA heresies (which are enumerated in profusion elsewhere on this website), but it surely lays the Bible-diminishing groundwork for them . . . in classic ELCAspeak:

Interesting. Over the past 25 years I have watched the ELCA "evolve" from heretical to blatantly heretical. Now I see it merging with the Episcopal Church and other denominations -- and morphing into what may be the Church of the Antichrist.

Look closer at the linked pic. Those aren't just any "babes", but are famous actresses of 30's-60's. I think I have most of them right, but may be missing a few. From the left: Mae West , Hedy Lamarr, Natalie Wood, Jayne Mansfield, Jennifer Jones, Ava Gardner, Greer Garson (Jesus), Veronica Lake, Jeanne Crain (?) (?) Ingrid Bergman and Marilyn Monroe.

What is up with this blog? Supposedly its to promote the ELCA to return to Biblical Christianity. It appears instead that it is here to promote unBibilcal Romanism.

Hey Norm -- I'm not proselytizing for the Catholic Church. I spent the first 27 years of my life as a dedicated Lutheran, and I feel for the Lutheran Church. That's all. Also, I think the world is changing very fast. We are not living in the 16th century. It's time to really look at the issues -- with all the info we have available at our fingertips -- and work for Christian Unity -- which is the will of Christ.

For "Kathy Surarez" or "Kathy S" or whoever is shilling for Rome, here is another thought for you.
