God's Call: Filling a Need

Day 4

The ELCA cares nothing for sharing the Good News of Christ's death and resurrection, the forgiveness of sins for those that believe. With the prevailing belief in universalism in the ELCA, the Good News is not important. Instead they turn to transgender talks in the church, pushing conservative voices out of the denomination, women's marches, gun marches, refugee marches, declaring your pronouns, anti-Israel advocating, abortion love, free s*x, pushing leftist beliefs, collecting money, race baiting, making a name for themselves, indoctrinating members and the youth, LGBT everything, destroying faith in God's Word, encouraging and binding people in their sin.

​I began this ministry, Exposing the ELCA, in 2009, as a mission of love for those being lied to, whose faith was being destroyed, for those being encouraged to sin and the ELCA’s blessing of sin.

Over the past 13 years Exposing the ELCA has reached many people with over 3.2 million pages viewed, have been quoted on national media, and have heard stories from many who have been helped and blessed by this ministry. I wouldn’t doubt if you know those who after reading some of Exposing the ELCA’s information, left the ELCA and are now part of your church family.

The teachings and actions of the ELCA grow colder and bolder in wickedness every year and the need for this ministry is greater than ever. Exposing the ELCA is the primary source in the nation documenting the ELCA's deception, showing people their heresy and disregard and twisting of God's Word.

The ELCA would love to see this ministry silenced. They are watching this fundraiser in hopes that it fails. We have a long way to go to meet our goal of $15,000. Is there someone who would give a gift of $10,000?

We need your support both large and small, monthly gifts and one-time gifts. Thank you for supporting this ministry!

The ELCA Heresy Grows and the Exodus Continues
Day 3
To answer a question I've heard, and I am sure some of you have also:
Yes, there are still people and churches leaving the ELCA now and over the last few years.
The ELCA and many of its pastors have been emboldened with their radically beliefs and twisting of Scripture and they are airing them more freely for others to see.
God has used this to open the eyes of faithful Christians in the ELCA and many are not willing to stay and participate in this evil.
Before we look at some more recent examples of what the ELCA is doing and saying, would you give to the ministry of Exposing the ELCA so we can continue to provide evidence of the ELCA's departure from Truth, God's Word and the Good News of Jesus?

Exposing the ELCA's calling is to shine light on the ELCA's departure from God and Scripture. Why? Because leading people away from God's Word has devastating and eternal consequences for people. In order to do that we are having a 5-day Fall Fundraiser.

Would you help us continue this vital work?

Exposing the ELCA provides daily highlights of the actions and false teachings of the $2 -billion dollar, 3 million member and 10,000+ liberal pastor-woke army of the ELCA. This is an effort to help people know the truth and not be directed down the path of spiritual destruction. With God on our side, we are winning the battle.

God's Word tells us to "contend earnestly for the faith." (Jude 1:3) Exposing the ELCA reports on how the ELCA has departed from the Christian faith and we have seen hundreds of thousands leave the ELCA because of it. If you are a Lutheran you likely know someone who has left the ELCA and there is a good likelihood God used the work of Exposing the ELCA to help facilitate that move.

After twelve years of predominantly voluntary ministry work at Exposing the ELCA, we must now ask those who believe in this ministry to help provide for the costs and labor to keep this running. We are aiming to raise $15,000 this fall, and we are having a special push to get there in the next 5 days.

Can you help with a large or small, one-time or monthly gift to this important work that has life-saving results?

We are also calling on thousands of churches that have benefited from the work of Exposing the ELCA to help. The LCMC, LCMS, and NALC are three of the many denominations or associations that have made huge gains in membership and offerings because of this ministry.

Exposing the ELCA's website has garnered over 3.2 million page views since it began, inspired hundreds of news reports about the ELCA, and witnessed over 1 million people leave the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. And yet there is so much more for us to do. So many more need the resources we provide.

Over the next 5 days we will write daily blogs highlighting the work of this ministry. We will also be posting 3 new ELCA Exposing articles each day in each blog.

Your help is greatly needed! Thank you for considering giving to Exposing the ELCA!

ELCA Head Bishop Says the ELCA "teaches that abortion...must be legal and accessible"

If you are prolife you need to stop supporting and end your membership in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). It is time to leave.

See the ELCA news release and the tweet below from the ELCA Presiding Bishop, Elizabeth Eaton, about the Supreme Court and their likely decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, which would give states the right to decide on abortion.

The news release is a statement from the Presiding Bishop titled "A pastoral message on abortion." The tweeted statement below is included in the ELCA news release. Here are some additional quotes from the statement:

- I urge you to work locally to moderate any Supreme Court decision similar to the leaked draft.
- This church's social teaching states that abortion must be legal, regulated and accessible. People who choose to have legal abortions should not be harassed or prevented from accessing abortion due to economic or other factors.
- It has the potential to foster communities of conflict and moral policing rather than complex moral discernment. It will likely endanger or cause the deaths of people who need an abortion. And the legal bases established by any such decision threaten people's access to birth control, same-s*x marriage, voting rights and their right to privacy.
- Any ruling similar to the leaked draft will upend 50 years of legal precedent in our nation and damage the health and well-being of many.

I don't care what your reason is to remain in the ELCA, whether you are a pro-life pastor or a pro-life congregation or a pro-life member. You are part of a denomination that supports and advocates for the killing of unborn children (the ELCA also pays for employees' abortions). You can not justify remaining.
