CHICAGO -- The presiding bishop of the nation's largest Lutheran denomination warned Wednesday that withholding financial support to protest a recent gay clergy vote would be "devastating" to the church.

Bishop Mark Hanson laid out his concerns in a letter to leaders of the 4.7 million-member Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, based in Chicago. The ELCA churchwide assembly voted last month to allow gays and lesbians in committed relationships to serve as clergy, dropping a requirement that gay clergy be celibate.

Hanson's letter comes on the eve of a meeting of conservative ELCA group Lutheran CORE, which has urged supporters to "direct funding away from the national church" since the vote.

Withholding funding would hurt the mission of the denomination, Hanson wrote. "Although these actions are promoted as a way to signal opposition to churchwide assembly actions or even to punish the voting members who made them, the result will be wounds that we inflict on ourselves, our shared life, and our mission in Christ," he wrote.

The Rev. Mark Chavez, director of Lutheran CORE, said the gay clergy vote was the devastating event -- "a departure from God's clear word."

Organizers say this weekend's conference will start the process of forming an "alternative church fellowship." [Quote from article]

The ELCA is dying, and it deserves to die, because it is walking against the Word of God!

O Yahweh tear it down, and every other group that is like it, for it is not Yours! For Your people do not walk in wickedness, do not practice iniquity, and do not go through the tribulation with the rasha (vile criminals)! Amen.

[This is a link to the full list of the current people serving in both the House and Senate. I am asking that all of you check the list, find the names of the representatives for your own state/district, and send a copy of the following letter to them. I am certain that if enough people send the same message they will start to see it is serious! Thank you for your help in delivering this message to them all. I truly believe that the destruction of America is right before us, and it is up to us to tell them that so they are without excuse when it comes and they are swept away in/with it!]

An open letter to Washington D.C.

What would I say to the congress if I could speak to them? It's a question I was asking myself today. I believe the answer is what follows...

"For in a warm climate, no man will labour for himself who can make another labour for him. This is so true, that of the proprietors of slaves a very small proportion indeed are ever seen to labour. And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are the gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with his wrath? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just: that his justice cannot sleep for ever..." -- Notes on the State of Virginia, Thomas Jefferson

From the beginning of this once great nation all that had make it great was its goodness. Today the nation has left off from goodness and lost that greatness; so, because it has, very soon it will be consumed with the fire of the wrath of the God who sustained it! Like all of the other nations, which forgot Him have been turned into hell that came before it, this nation will also be burnt with the fire of His wrath and fall from its place!

I know that God is just, I know that His justice will not slumber forever, and I know that the only thing withholding that from this once great nation is His lovely bride in the midst of it! Once she is taken, then it will burn, there's nothing you can do to stop that now; you have sinned, and have become the stench in His nostrils, and there is no remedy for you now!

I know that you hate those who believe that, that you look at us as terrorists, that you would like for us to leave this place; so, I am telling you that Yahweh is about to grant you your request! And then He will, because you have left off from the goodness that had made you great, remove you from your place as a super power so-called forever! Your end is so near, like Jericho you will burn, and you don't even know it...

From the page: "This is going to be, shall we say, "a controversial column."

Outfits like the George Soros-subsidized Media Matters will have a field day with it â€" excerpting passages out of context, deliberately distorting the words I am carefully choosing and, in typical knee-jerk fashion, mocking its premise.

Cable TV propagandists posing as "newsmen" will hurl invectives and dub me as a villain for expressing my honest and candid opinions â€" all of which are based on reality and truth.

Lately, both sides of the political spectrum have suggested their political opponents resemble Nazis or fascists. Are both sides equally wrong?

Let's talk about "national socialism" â€" because that, indeed, is exactly what Barack Obama and his friends in the Congress are actively promoting and enacting in America today.

The very word "Nazi" is indeed an acronym for national socialism â€" the political and economic system Hitler infamously imposed on Germany in the 1930s. It was then and remains today, despite the denials of historical revisionists, a "left-wing" idea. All socialism is, by definition, a left-wing notion.

If the left-right political spectrum has any meaning, it is that those on the left tend to favor government intervention while those on the right favor non-government solutions to problems. That is the traditional and accepted definition â€" much as those on the left would like to blur that understanding.

National socialists, whether they seek to kill Jews or old people or the disabled or unborn babies, will always be national socialists â€" no matter what kind of lipstick they put on the pig.

Furthermore, people like our Founding Fathers, who sought to diffuse power because they understood its unchecked and unlimited centralization represented a grave threat to personal liberty represent the polar opposite of national socialists."

Good article...

Bush was bad; but, Obama is worse...

The end is near! Amen.

"What's about to happen in the days ahead.
This is what I see, coming up, even these 12 events...

1. Christ the bride goes in the harpazo.

"And now you know what is withholding that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity does already work: only he who now is letting will let, until he be taken out of the way.

And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom Yahweh (the Lord) shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved." - 2 Thessalonians 2:6-10

I believe the presence of Christ the bride, in America, is all that is restraining the destruction of the nation.

2. America is removed from its place to pave the way for the man of sin and the coalition of nations that support him.

"The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God." - Psalm 9:17

America has done that, and there is no remedy for it, all that is in front of it now is being set on fire. Removed as the so-called "super power" it still believes that it is!

3. The 7 year covenant is confirmed with the many in Israel.

"And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week..." (That's speaking about a week of years; even 7 years) - Daniel 9:27

This is a peace of sinful men, entirely contrary to God and His expressed will (His Word), it will not stand! Amen." - Quote from article
