Metropolitan New York Synod posted this on their Facebook page: “Hey--we recognize those people! Pastor Mark Erson and Pastor Heidi Neumark celebrated the overturning of the Defense of Marriage Act yesterday at the Stonewall Inn.” (see the Metropolitan Facebook page here)
Sierra Pacific Synod Bishop Mark Holmerud referencing the ELCA 2009 decision to ordain practicing homosexual pastors said the ELCA is now “a better reflection of the light of Christ." (see video below)
Based on the bishop's comment, it must mean that those that disagree with the 2009 ELCA decision must be a “poorer reflection of the light of Christ.”
The Bible says it well -
“Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.” Matthew 7:15
