The ELCA Heresy Grows and the Exodus Continues

Day 3

To answer a question I've heard, and I am sure some of you have also:

Yes, there are still people and churches leaving the ELCA now and over the last few years.

The ELCA and many of its pastors have been emboldened with their radically beliefs and twisting of Scripture and they are airing them more freely for others to see.  
​

God has used this to open the eyes of faithful Christians in the ELCA and many are not willing to stay and participate in this evil. 

Before we look at some more recent examples of what the ELCA is doing and saying, would you give to the ministry of Exposing the ELCA so we can continue to provide evidence of the ELCA's departure from Truth, God's Word and the Good News of Jesus?
