PCUSA Pastor Says Jesus Would Have Been an ‘Abortion Doula’ + ‘Blessed Are Those End Their Pregnancies’
Protestia ^ | August 18, 2023 | staff

Posted on 08/20/2023 12:34:57 PM PDT by Morgana

Rebecca Todd Peters is a professor, author, and Presbyterian Church (USA) ‘Pastor.’ She has been active denominationally and ecumenically for over twenty-five years and 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.

During a recent sermon preached at the Church of Reconciliation, Todd reveals that she moonlights as an abortion clinic escort once a month so she can live out Micah 6:8 (He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?) which she describes as “my motto, my mantra, my canon within a canon. It is the text through which I read all others and through which I think about what it means to be Christian.”

I wear my collar along with my clinic escort vest as a visible witness to the power of faith leaders showing up in spaces where people are hurting. Where people are being oppressed and stigmatized. If you’ve never been to a clinic where abortions are performed, you might be surprised at how awful the people who proclaim themselves Christians are in those spaces. Or perhaps you wouldn’t be.

I show up to offer a different face of Christ to the world, a female face. A face supportive of abortion as healthcare. A face supportive of pregnant women and people having abortions. Standing up with and for women having abortions in that clinic is one way I seek to respond to Micah’s call in my life.

She then explains:

If Jesus were here today, he would be a clinic escort distracting women from the hatred of the protesters or an abortion doula holding women’s hands and offering support and love as they end their pregnancies. And I expect he would have a stern word for self-righteous legislators who use abortion as a political issue rather than showing compassion for the people seeking abortions.

Todd then adapts the Beatitudes into a grotesque pro-choice mantra, which she repeats several times throughout this sermon.

If Jesus were giving his sermon today, he might also have said, ‘Blessed are those who end pregnancies, for they will be known for their loving kindness.’

Revealing that she’s been pregnant four times and has had two abortions, she notes that “each of my reproductive decisions, to have children and not to have children, were sacred decisions because they reflect the moral responsibility of reproductive power that is part of our inheritance as human creatures.” Todd concludes by insisting “reimagining our theological understanding of abortion is essential to addressing the violence that is being done to people across the country in the name of Christianity.”

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.

Isaiah 3:12 ESV
My people—infants are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, your guides mislead you and they have swallowed up the course of your paths.

I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet.

And what is with the old, white men who are so violent in protecting aborters? Do you ever see old black men acting violent for aborters? And the old white men seem to be weak. I think they could do a whole doctoral thesis on the violent abortion supports.

“I wear my collar along with my clinic escort vest...”

Since when do Presbyterians (PCUSA) wear a collar?

“But whoso shall offend one of these little one which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea” Matthew 18:6, Mark 9:42, Luke 17:2

Thats because gynocentric government panders to them with thousands of benefit programs and special privileges, and gynocentric media is content created for them, and gynocentric education systems are totally geared around them.

And you will find that the source (Protestia) is in 100% agreement with you. I know the guys behind that - and they are all 100% Abolitionists. I suspect the OP here on FR is also anti-abortion, thus the reason for the post.

The PCUSA went apostate decades ago and continues to repeatedly double-down on their hate for God.

Many have for a long time. But it seems the women “pastors” in the PCUSA seem to be extra proud to wear them.

I’m with you - and this fake “pastor” is demonstrating why.

I have one better

Luke 23:
28 But Jesus turning to them, said: Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not over me; but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
29 For behold, the days shall come, wherein they will say: Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that have not borne, and the paps that have not given suck.

“...whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me. But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea than what awaits him”. Matthew 18:5-6

Modern American women...

They are at or near the top of the list of dependable Democrat voters, especially if they are single. Of course abortion “rights” lead the list of primary concerns.

In quotes--you got that right.

Maybe she's a Pastrix.

Or maybe an Ostrix.
