Not all Lutherans have gone the way of worldly compromise and heresy. There are several branches (synods) that remain true to the Bible. Many Lutherans no longer recognize the ELCA ( main Lutheran synod) as Lutheran or even Christian any longer. Individuals and entire congregations are leaving in droves. The largest true Lutheran church is the LCMS (Lutheran Church Missouri Synod.) There are several other smaller conservative synods as well.

A friend of mine is a Lutheran minister here in NJ; he explained to me years ago that his synod didn’t have female ministers (never mind homosexuals). It seemed very de-centralized the way he explained it.
