The chief legislative body of the Evangelical Lutheran Church meets this week to decide if the church will ordain homosexuals “in committed relationships”. Appropriately, they are meeting in Orlando, Florida, the home of Disney World, where they will indulge in fantasy rather than study of the word of God.

It has been interesting, if appalling, to see the governing bodies of Episcopalians, Presyterians and Lutherans try to force homosexual clergy on their laity, who largely oppose the idea. Peter had a cogent word for them. "But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them-bringing swift destruction on themselves. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemantion has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping. 2 Peter 2:1-3.
