Ten Theses on God’s
Arrangement of the Sexes

In 2010 the Association of Confessing Evangelical Lutheran Congregations sent a letter to every LCMS congregation identifying ten errors that are tolerated or promoted in the LCMS and that deeply concern us. One of these errors was the restriction or rejection of the Order of Creation (see Evidence of Errors V). In 2017 the ACELC hosted a conference in which we explored more deeply the Order of Creation. You will be able to find the papers presented at the 2017 Conference on our website, as soon as we are finished repairing it.

In the past, the ACELC has adopted sets of theses regarding two of the ten errors (Worship and Closed Communion). This year the ACELC has officially adopted yet another set of theses titled Ten Theses on God’s Arrangement of the Sexes. It is our hope and prayer that this set of theses will encourage earnest reflection, deep conversation, and ultimately genuine repentance among our congregations and clergy.

Please carefully read the theses. Consider studying them in your Winkel or with your congregation. If you believe that you have failed to live according to God’s order, repent and believe that Jesus died for those sins too.

In Christ,
The ACELC Board of Directors
