A church is a living entity. Once the Spirit departs, though, it dies. All you are left with is an empty shell of a religion. Nothing left to do but call in the realtors.
How much less could Chilstrom care?
This has nothing to do with their "Civil Rights" or "Human Rights". It's a small percentage of the population demanding the to have their hideous and unnatural behavior accepted and approved of by the society at large in spite of the fact that the majority believe such folks are disgusting perverts deliberately mocking God through their behavior.
The fact that so many people see nothing wrong with giving in to their demands shows that Christ has already given this nation over to a reprobate mind. Of course, some of us knew that when King Barry was elected because only reprobates
Exactly. As others have said, the problem isn't the mediocrity sitting in the White House, its the 50% of Americans that didn't notice what a mediocrity he is.
There is a kind of corruption of the spirit that renders you incapable of distinguishing right from wrong and good from evil. Once it reaches critical mass in a society you have dark days ahead. And no way of knowing why.
Should be obvious since only the ELCA and NALC use the term "bishop"...but we can't expect the average newspaper reader to know the intricacies of ecclesial nomenclature.
With people like Rev. Herbert Chilstrom, working for him the devil is making his great last stand.
The Lutheran “Church” is a joke and their “bishops” have no authority because they broke away from God’s Pilgrim Church on Earth, hence, they no apostolic line of succession. There is one Holy Christian Church and that is the Catholic Church.

As for the apostles i only recognize the twelve.
There is a major distinction in REAL CATHOLICS, and fallen away “Catholics” who attend Church once a year at Christmas, and never go to reconciliation. They do not follow the teachings of the faith and shouldn’t call themselves Catholic, because if you don’t abide by the teachings of the Catholic Church, you are no longer a Catholic. The Catholic Church has been putting up with disbelievers for the last 2,000 years. It’s not easy being Catholic. It’s not for wimps.
Its not for wimps.
I can say that i am willing but when the time comes will i be the wimp or can i hold on to my faith through the ordeal?
