In this The Blaze article, Allie Beth Stuckey exposes a Lutheran pastor’s claim that “queer is God’s design” and that hell is merely anti-LGBTQ discrimination as blasphemous progressive theology that twists Scripture.
- Pastor Patrick Preacher of Trinity Lutheran Church (ELCA), who serves as pastor for queer ministry, declared in a sermon that “queer is God’s design” and that hell does not exist as a physical place but only as the manifestation of anti-LGBTQ discrimination in America.
- Preacher asked who had the nerve to tell people that being queer makes them awful or that they would go to hell for the way God created them, branding Christianity the “religion of bigotry.”
- Allie Beth Stuckey answered that Jesus Himself did, citing Matthew 19:4-6 in which Christ affirms that God created them male and female and that marriage is the lifelong union of one man and one woman.
- She noted that Scripture describes homosexual behavior as an abomination and unnatural, and that persisting in any form of rebellion against God—including unrepentant sexual sin—results in hell.
- Stuckey quoted Romans 3:23, “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,” underscoring that every person needs repentance and that no identity exempts anyone from the call to holiness.
- She identified the pastor’s message as critical theory and queer theory projected onto the Bible rather than authentic Christianity, calling it blasphemy that uses religious language to justify and minimize what God calls sin.
- Preacher framed Jesus as a “humble, brown-skinned immigrant from Nazareth” whose followers should therefore accept homosexuality and transgenderism, an intersectional argument Stuckey rejected as foreign to the gospel.
