It serves no purpose for me to kick someone when they’re down, but my prayer is that the ELCA either repents and returns to biblical Christianity or implodes into oblivion. You can’t serve two masters. A Christian can’t serve Christ and be in a denomination that rejects his Word.
Clearly, Presiding Bishop had not considered that admonition when he declared about a year ago that the ELCA had "two competing hermeneutics".
You are dead on target.
As I have stated elsewhere,
The ELCA has become over some time polluted by a sect of idolaters who under the veil of humanitarianism are driving an extremely left leaning political secular agenda that has become an apostasy to God.
These radicals have taken a huge stride in their own minds and furthering God’s Kingdom appears to have become a lowered priority. The head of the snake is venomous and in biting itself, it does not realize it is not immune to its own venom.
Love of self and worldly recognition rules the hearts (of the political leadership) it seems they mainly desire to make a name for themselves. (read about the tower of babble). God has been lowered to the level of a stage prop and his authority is being questioned!
In actuality the ELCA and many other Churches are being infiltrated by evil doers big time.
And to further to back up what I am saying go here.

I completely agree. Thanks for putting it so well. The loyalty of some to the ELCA baffles me when it has so clearly gone against the Word of God.
