Lutheran Pastor Goes On Trial For Heresy
The Rev. George P. Crist Jr., 31, pastor of Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Durham Wisconsin, faces a closed trial before the Northwest Synod United Lutheran Church in America. He is charged with adulterating Scripture by presenting personal opinions as doctrine, denying Christ's resurrection and virgin birth, and rejecting literal miracles and Luther's Reformation principles. Crist admits holding these views, arguing a deeper truth behind the Bible. The charges stem from a June 30 committee ruling. Crist is a Chicago native and Northwestern Lutheran Seminary graduate.
