The only thing growing in this cult is the bureaucracy.

"Soon enough your entire church can meet in your living room."

Funny. That is how that subversive cult, inspired by the Jewish Rabbi that was crucified in Jerusalem began.

You know, the one that caused the Roman Emperor some much angst.

At headquarters, ELCA apostasy is earning predictable recompense.

CHICAGO (ELCA) -- The Church Council of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) acted Nov. 15 [2009] to reduce the 2010 churchwide current fund spending authorization by nearly $7.7 million, 10 percent less than the budget authorized by the 2009 Churchwide Assembly. The council's action eliminated 40.75 full-time equivalent positions, of which six were vacant.

The ELCA would have more money if Lutherans knew that their teachings were based on the Bible. If that happened, more people would attend ELCA churches.

Yeah, but with one critical exception. That Rabbi you spoke of was true God and true man, not a guy named rhema posting on the internet.

What do you expect from a Catholic on a Lutheran thread. I doubt he posts to the pedophile threads. Original for sure. Time for another round of Ave Maria.
