Luther College as in “Martin Luther”?
Yes, unfortunately....they are ELCA. A professor at an ELCA seminary a few years ago proposed that’s Christ’s death and resurrection is not necessary for our salvation. The ELCA is widely regarded as disgustingly heterodox (to put it mildly) by other Lutherans, who basically cringe whenever they hear those four letters. Luther’s name has absolutely no bearing on their theology...it’s really only a fluke that they are still called Lutheran. Oh, they think that Luther would agree with them, but....then again they think that anything goes.
I’m a Missouri Synod gal. For those of you who don’t know, Matt Harrison who spoke at the congressional hearing for the HHS contraception mandate, is LC-MS as well. The main difference between ELCA and LC-MS is that ELCA doesn’t believe the Word of God to be true, and the LC-MS does.
