Clint Schnekloth is an ELCA pastor, author, writer and speaker who is well-known within the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. He controls at least two ELCA Facebook pages which reach thousands of people, and he wields a great deal of power and influence by dictating who is allowed to post and what kind of comments will be allowed on his ELCA pages. Not only does he have the respect of fellow ELCA leaders and members because of that power, but Pastor Schnekloth's influence reaches much farther. He “...write(s) content for a worship resource published by Augsburg Fortress. It's called Sundays & Seasons...” (see here)
Now that you know a little about ELCA pastor Schnekloth, take a look at the vile, non-Biblical and sacrilegious comment he made about Jesus, the Son of God:
Pastor Schnekoth believes Jesus was intersex? What?!?! This is the definition of intersex: "An individual having reproductive organs or external sexual characteristics of both male and female."
It is disgusting that a man with this kind of power and influence within the ELCA is telling people that Jesus was intersex, a hermaphrodite. What kind of spirit is at work in someone who thinks like this?
The ELCA has turned the Bible into an arbitrary reference guide that has no authority. It tells them about Jesus, but it isn't good for much more than that. Because of their view of God's Word, they can ignore plain teaching, such as "She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins" (Matthew 1:21) and make things up to fit their twisted worldview. It is demonic.
God will not be mocked. Please share the truth of what is going on with your ELCA friends and family.
He thinks his Jesus is cooler than that other Jesus. :)

To the tune of the Village People’s YMCA.
What the hell is intersex?Born with ambiguously deformed genitalia.
A physical pathology, not a mental illness.
Pay no attention to another false teacher from this secular humanist fiction, the ELCA. Jesus will look at them on Judgment Day, and pronounce His sentence, “I never knew you. Depart from Me.” That is only just, because these phony followers have departed from Jesus and His teachings, “teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.”
I like what Florence King once said.
“You can tell you’ve created your own god
when he hates the same people you hate.”
Like you said! I second that.
Wait, wasn’t the most recent leftist narrative that Jesus was a homosexual who had sex with all his disciples?
ELCA is dead, excepting to those atheists who still show up on Sundays.
Which is the equivalent of the pagan TEC.

These shells of "churches" are no more alive than the dead animal carcass which is "moving" by means of the feeding maggots on the inside.
Born with ambiguously deformed genitalia.
A physical pathology, not a mental illness.
That's not the new improved definition. You can now be "intersex" just by your mere declaration these days, just like "transgenders."
In other words, there is no sound medical evidence required.
Leftists hate real science.
Whoa, try to look at this as a Christian.
It’s blurb, not in much context or deep thought, poorly written. He may be a lefty, but he may at the same time be a poor combiner of two words.
God is called Father, His coming Son is prophesied everywhere.
But God the Father is not strictly a male in a sexual understanding but in an authority understanding in a way we humans understand - we are made in His likeness - male and female. Jesus likewise is God. He was born in our likeness a man here, but he is God.
He’s not intersex, of course, but as God, Jesus is outside of sexual identification. As man, he is male. This guy here is trying to give it a word in a social communication - and fails.
Look how hard it was to get “Transubstantiation” and most christians still can’t wrap their head around it enough to give truth or its potential for truth a fair listen, though they accept “Trinity” but cannot explain it!
This is why social media has very bad effects to go with its very good ones....like TNT.
Is that Intersex 95 going up the coast or Intersex 40 crossing the country?
God is indeed described as our heavenly father and as having compassion (from the Hebrew, mother’s womb). Nevertheless, He is a pure spirit. So, he is neither male nor female, nor both and not even neither.
With respect to Jesus, his human self is male. His oneness with the Father is oneness with a pure spirit.
“Inter-sex” is a range of physical conditions, and is sometimes used to describe amiguous demeanor unassociated with any physical condition. In the historical circumstances into which Jesus was born, inter-sex as a physical condition would have disqualified Jesus from serving as the Passover Lamb.
The Gospel of Matthew (or, the Gospel “to the Jews”) is very careful about the Jewishness of Jesus. The other gospels (Mark, “to the Romans;” Luke, “to the Greeks;” and John, “to the Christians”) reflect the full range of sensitives of the early church.
That four versions address the diverse cultural concerns of the early church could be taken to mean that addressing contemporary cultural concerns is legitimate. But, we should contextualize the Bible carefully, so as not to conflict with what it says.
But, as to whether I am correct or not in my reading of the Bible, I would hope that a Christian would welcome dialogue and not be offended at discussion. Jesus, at any early age, engaged the rabbis at the Temple in discussion of Torah, which is an honorable tradition among Jews.
Adams was an Arian/Unitarian. IAC. he admired Chriustian morality and it would have blown his mind if he had been told that the Supreme Court would ever legalize same-sex marriage and declare sodomy to be normal. Ditto with John Marshall, the Chief Justice, who was also religiously liberal.
I guess this “pastor” would know “bad-ass” when he sees it.
Bush II did paltry little to help the situation, either. After all, under his watch marriage redefinition illegitimately got going in Marxistchusetts (didn't hear much of a peep from him) and various other states pushed the issue as well.
What a lie.
Jesus had a Bris, so he obviously had man parts.
