Upcoming Proposals at 2022 ELCA Churchwide Assembly

7/20/2022

5 Comments

 
2022 ELCA Churchwide Assembly happens in a couple weeks. On the docket:

"Proposals (known as memorials) from the ELCA's 65 synods that address social justice issues and matters relating to the structure of the ELCA, including greenhouse gas reduction; gun violence; LGBTQIA+ welcome; pastoral counseling as a result of changes to Roe v. Wade; the land back movement; ELCA governance restructure; specialized ministries and on leave from call status; and review and revision of the ELCA social statement Human Sexuality: Gift and Trust, adopted by the 2009 Churchwide Assembly."

It gets worse the more you dig into the article. Including "The Landback Movement". If you look at the front page of the "Landback" website it says, "Not only does Mount Rushmore sit in the heart of the sacred Black Hills, but it is an international symbol of white supremacy and colonization." Tell that doesn't terrify you in the agenda these individuals are pushing.

Because their agendas are virtually identical, the ELCA could save some of its rapidly diminishing finances by holding its Churchwide Assembly concurrently with, and in the same venue as, the Democrat Party convention.

A continued reminder to confessional Christians and Lutherans to stand against every onslaught of godlessness from secular and pagan-religious sectors of society:

'The Left’s Trans Agenda Is All About Erasing The Past To Control The Future'

"The left [including quisling churches like the ELCA] doesn’t just want you to deny biology in the present. They want you to ignore that it was ever valued as reality in the past."

-- https://thefederalist.com/2022/07/21/the-lefts-trans-agenda-is-all-about-erasing-the-past-to-control-the-future/

[ . . .] The left’s war on the past shows their ferocious desire to control the future. By normalizing sexual chaos in the now and using that to contextualize the past, transgenderism activists are chipping away at the foundations of humanity. To participate in their charade, you must reject biology on all counts and accept what false narrative is force-fed to you as tolerance and acceptance. . . .

The left wants a monopoly on language, definitions, and history because once you control those, you have the power to set the narrative for everyone else — past, present, and future. That’s why institutions from schools to libraries to sports leagues and all the way up to the federal government are plagued with propaganda pretending it’s perfectly fine and normal for immature, underdeveloped children to make life-changing, physically altering, and often irreversible choices.
[ . . .]
Refuse to accept the terms and conditions of their wordplay and reject their attempts to replace fact and science with this radical new orthodoxy on sex. It’s wrong, it’s revisionist, and it’s already harming an entire generation of moldable children at a historic rate.

The synod has had enough time to screen out delegates that may not agree with all their assembly issue positions. The "gaslighting" that will go on at the assembly will produce more than enough propaganda to spread to the shrinking ELCA churches for the next 3 years until they gather again. Apparently gun violence is on the agenda but will the big bishop should address the regular weekly killings in her own backyard of Chicago. Requiring all delegates to wear N95 masks is certainly fitting & perhaps blindfolds plus ear protection might also be appropriate gear too.

Think what the ELCA could be doing -- besides fulfilling Jesus' Great Commission, its foremost neglected imperative from Him -- if it decided to stop obeying the world's commands and follow Jesus:

'Building stronger families'

LIFEPLAN: Northeast Hope Awards winner is a pregnancy center that focuses on holistic Biblical sexuality as well as providing services to women

-- https://wng.org/articles/building-stronger-families-1657684222

[...]LIFEPLAN ESTABLISHED the center in Benton Harbor in 2019 and hopes to establish one in South Bend later this year. Clients are ushered into a clean and bright space in the lower level of an office building. The center boasts another spotless boutique with a garland of white, gray, and turquoise onesies held by clothespins hanging above the shelves. A black-and-white rug decorates the wooden floor. In the ultrasound room a placard that says “It is well with my soul” in flowing cursive surrounded by a white wreath hangs above the examining table.

Consultants usually see lower-income women, with about 80 percent of their clients qualifying for government assistance. But LifePlan doesn’t have any income requirements because strengthening the family is about more than services. “A lot of people hear ‘crisis pregnancy center’ and think that’s for those 15-year-old girls in the poor neighborhoods. And really it’s for anyone,” said Patrice.
