ELCA SOUTH DAKOTA BISHOP SAYS HE HAS NO PLANS TO LEAD SYNOD OUT OF ELCA


David Zillmer, bishop of the South Dakota Synod Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, told a gathering recently that he has no plans to lead his synod out of the ELCA, even though he strongly disagrees with its policies on homosexual clergy. This leaves the ELCA folks in South Dakota with three choices: (1) Lead their own congregations out; (2) Get out on their own; (3) stay with the bishop and compromise the Word of God by giving loyalty to a denomation rather than to Jesus Christ.
