Head ELCA bishop: "Everybody isn't male or everybody isn't female…There is a whole spectrum"9/13/2017 (The following article was written by Rev. Tom Brock of pastorsstudy.org. You can follow Pastor Brock on Facebook - here and Twitter - here. At the end of his article, you will find a few additional comments by me.)
In the same interview in which Elizabeth Eaton, the head Bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, said that she believes Hell is empty, she also supports a spectrum of sexualities--not everyone is male or female. Jesus said otherwise in Matthew 19:4. Bishop Eaton also recently made it clear that she wants transgendered people in the military. Tap the below for the whole story from a pro-homosexual Lutheran group which is rejoicing. Please, if you are a Bible-believing Lutheran and still in the ELCA, ask yourself what more it would take for you to take your money, time, and talents and join the more Biblical denomination? Sincerely in Christ, Pastor Tom Brock https://www.reconcilingworks.org/bp-eaton-interview/ -- Here is the quote from the Presiding Bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America - “Our church has done work for years thinking about this. And we have come to the understanding that God’s creation is diverse and that the diversity of God’s creation is actually a gift and then when we take a look a people’s sexual orientation or gender identity, it’s not completely binary. Everybody isn’t male or everybody isn’t female. There’s a whole spectrum to that. I think that’s something that’s new for a lot of our people to think about, but it’s the truth…we’re very clear that everyone bears the image of God and everyone is considered precious in God’s eyes.” (listen here) In contrast, (as Pastor Brock pointed out) Jesus said, "'Haven’t you read,' he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female...’" - Matthew 19:4

Psychiatrists at Johns Hopkins have determined the whole "trans-sexual thing" to be mental illness. Pft!!! Johns Hopkins!!! What do THOSE idiots know?!?!?!?

It speaks volumes that Eaton's quote cites her staff's "work" and the buzzwords of "diversity" and "identity," but doesn't even resort to citing Galatians 3:28 ("...neither male nor female..."). She has abandoned Scripture so fully, she doesn't even misquote it anymore.

Thanks for the gnostic reference. It is true imo that ELCA says it continues to identify itself by way of its confession. But how far it truly is from both Scripture and the Lutheran Confessions. What ELCA says it confesses is not the confession of the New Testament.

I am very distressed. I have been a Lutheran all my life. I was very upset about the silence from the ELCA with the abortion issues. I have been looking very closely at E Eaton. I believe this person is transgendered. I also have looked at the pictures of the newly elected Bishops from last fall. At least 1/2 of them appear to be trans. One has a bio that describes the person as a he in the 1st 2 paragraphs in the bio and then as a she in the latter part of the story. What an abomination!!! Is the ELCA led by a Sodomite?
