Rebecca Todd Peters is a professor, author, and Presbyterian Church (USA) ‘Pastor.’ She has been “active denominationally and ecumenically for over twenty-five years.” She represents the PCUSA as a member of the Faith and Order Standing Commission of the World Council of Churches.
A lover of all things baby-killing, she also serves on the Clergy Advocacy Board of Planned Parenthood and was recently elected Vice President of the Society of Christian Ethics.
It’s unsurprising then that she’s celebrated and tolerated within her denomination. The PCUSA has denigrated to one massive pen for goats, run by spiritual criminals and hirelings, with barely a sheep to be found anywhere. From Church Fasting from ‘Whiteness’ During Lent to Church Releases ‘Transgendered’ Remix of ‘Be Thou My Vision,’ to Pro-Abortion Pastrix Says Stories of Jonah and Zacchaeus are Proof We Should Subsidize Birth-Control, this pro-LGBTQIA&$#@!, pro-abortion cauldron of wokeness and deviant perversion runs neck in neck with the ELCA in a contest to see which denomination hates Jesus more, and they usually come on top.
In a recent sermon preached to The Community Church of Chapel Hill Unitarian Universalist in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, wearing a pink stole emblazoned with a Planned Parenthood logo, Peters raged against the “talking fetuses, aggressive bumper stickers and saccharine billboards quoting Scripture and invoking God’s wrath” and lamented that pro-life Christians have gained ground in the culture war in the language around abortion so that even unbelievers view it as a bad thing or “difficult choice.”
Arguing that bible verses like Psalms 139 (For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made) have nothing to say about abortion, Peters shares her disgust that Christians try to use it in that way, saying “I refuse to cede the sacredness of Scripture or its interpretation to those who would wield it as a weapon.”
Then, she shockingly concludes:
I, too, feel that I am known by God in these ways, as a woman who has borne two children. I can affirm that I felt something sacred happening in my gestating body during those pregnancies. I can also attest that I felt God’s presence with me as I made the decision to end two pregnancies and I felt no guilt, no shame, no sin.”
Yes, and all the other Protestant faiths (with the possible exception of the Unitarians) were closer to the Bible. All of the mainline Protestant churches are now extremely liberal; even the Southern Baptist Convention has tilted to the left.
Jesus wants all of us to repent our sins and be restored with sanctifying grace.
Even Napoleon repented before his death.

Doesn’t matter what you felt.
Sin is sin and you will be judged by your actions, not your feelings.

Godless Reprobates.
Correct.
PCUSA has been wildly liberal for a long time
J. Gresham Machen, a scholar at Princeton University and Presbyterian, published a pivotal work in 1923, “Christianity and Liberalism” which correctly identified the evils that were beginning to pull Presbyterian and other mainline denominations into heresy and apostasy. This has been a long time coming.
That’s what a Satanist says.
If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us. 1 John 1:8 NASB
Proud woman. Better than the rest of us by far.
Clergy material.

“I refuse to believe any self-respecting male would even contemplate mating with this woman. “
He’s not self respecting! Even Laz would not hit that!
“I can also attest that I felt God’s presence with me as I made the decision to end two pregnancies and I felt no guilt, no shame, no sin.””
Imagine her surprise on Judgement Day... when God finds her guilty of breaking His 6th commandment.
