PCUSA Pastor Says Jesus Would Have Been an ‘Abortion Doula’ + ‘Blessed Are Those End Their Pregnancies’
Protestia ^ | August 18, 2023 | staff

Posted on 08/20/2023 12:34:57 PM PDT by Morgana

Rebecca Todd Peters is a professor, author, and Presbyterian Church (USA) ‘Pastor.’ She has been active denominationally and ecumenically for over twenty-five years and represents the PCUSA as a member of the Faith and Order Standing Commission of the World Council of Churches. A lover of all things baby-killing, she also serves on the Clergy Advocacy Board of Planned Parenthood and was recently elected Vice President of the Society of Christian Ethics.

During a recent sermon preached at the Church of Reconciliation, Todd reveals that she moonlights as an abortion clinic escort once a month so she can live out Micah 6:8 (He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?) which she describes as “my motto, my mantra, my canon within a canon. It is the text through which I read all others and through which I think about what it means to be Christian.”

I wear my collar along with my clinic escort vest as a visible witness to the power of faith leaders showing up in spaces where people are hurting. Where people are being oppressed and stigmatized. If you’ve never been to a clinic where abortions are performed, you might be surprised at how awful the people who proclaim themselves Christians are in those spaces. Or perhaps you wouldn’t be.

I show up to offer a different face of Christ to the world, a female face. A face supportive of abortion as healthcare. A face supportive of pregnant women and people having abortions. Standing up with and for women having abortions in that clinic is one way I seek to respond to Micah’s call in my life.

She then explains:

If Jesus were here today, he would be a clinic escort distracting women from the hatred of the protesters or an abortion doula holding women’s hands and offering support and love as they end their pregnancies. And I expect he would have a stern word for self-righteous legislators who use abortion as a political issue rather than showing compassion for the people seeking abortions.

Todd then adapts the Beatitudes into a grotesque pro-choice mantra, which she repeats several times throughout this sermon.

If Jesus were giving his sermon today, he might also have said, ‘Blessed are those who end pregnancies, for they will be known for their loving kindness.’

Revealing that she’s been pregnant four times and has had two abortions, she notes that “each of my reproductive decisions, to have children and not to have children, were sacred decisions because they reflect the moral responsibility of reproductive power that is part of our inheritance as human creatures.” Todd concludes by insisting “reimagining our theological understanding of abortion is essential to addressing the violence that is being done to people across the country in the name of Christianity.”

The PCUSA has denigrated to one massive pen for goats, run by spiritual criminals and hirelings, with barely a sheep to be found anywhere. From Church Fasting from ‘Whiteness’ During Lent to Church Releases ‘Transgendered’ Remix of ‘Be Thou My Vision,’ to Pro-Abortion Pastrix Says Stories of Jonah and Zacchaeus are Proof We Should Subsidize Birth-Control, this pro-LGBTQIA+, pro-abortion cauldron of wokeness and deviant perversion runs neck in neck with the ELCA in a contest to see which denomination hates Jesus more, and they usually come on top.

“God” as a metaphor for ruling class interests.

Proof that any heretical idiot can become a pastor in the PCUSA.

Stop right there. Abortion isn't "healthcare" ... it's murdering an unborn child.

Jesus said in Matthew 19:14 "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”

Jesus did not condone murder. Abortion is murder.

Christ would certainly have shown compassion, as he did with the rich young man... but he certainly would not have participated in the terminating of unborn life to demonstrate such...

This woman is completely delusional to think such...

Sounds as if Ms. Peters is a Past and Present Whore in the PCUSA.

There are a lot more of them than many are willing to believe. And they are more diligent about voting.

These abortionistas are, so often, these mousey, homely, flat haired bespectacled proggy women. There’s some deep psychological injury that I don’t even care to know about.

"There are six things the Lord hates, seven that are detestable to him:
haughty eyes,a lying tongue,
hands that shed innocent blood,
a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,
a false witness who pours out lies
and a person who stirs up conflict in the community."

- Proverbs 6:16-19

The pendant on her necklace fittingly looks like a snowflake.
