What a nut job! Recently, The Washington Examiner ran this headline, “Trans pastor says Bible ‘wasn’t written for 2024’ while creating inclusive church.”
A transgender Lutheran pastor in southern California said the Bible “wasn’t written for 2024” as part of an effort to create a more inclusive version of the church for the LGBT community.
Drew Stever, a biological female who identifies as a transgender man, is an ordained minister in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America who is seeking to evolve a church in Hollywood and make it a safe space for LGBT people, according to a Thursday report.
“It is trying so hard,” Stever told CBS Mornings. “It’s hard to relate [the Bible] to modern-day times because it wasn’t written for 2024. It was written for then. When we read in the Scripture that God created man and woman, yes, and God created everyone else as well.”
Stever is not the first transgender person to be in the clergy of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, but for many, the practice remains taboo.
“It’s fools like this that have America in the shape it is in”, said Pastor Thomas Robb, the National Director of the Knights Party of the Ku Klux Klan, centrally based in Harrison, Arkansas. ” It’s foolish religious leaders like this that lead their congregation straight onto the pathway to Hell. The Bible clearly states that God cannot tell a lie. It also states that God cannot change. With these two facts, it proves that God hates homosexuals in 2024 just as much as He did in Biblical times. The Bible is our manual on how to live Godly lives. Just as a car has a manual to keep it in top running shape. If you buy a new vehicle in 2024, that manual to your vehicle will remain in effect as how to keep it running until it finally ‘dies’. The instructions for your vehicle don’t change do they? Neither does our manual, the Bible.”
