So much for the United Methodist Church. They’ll sing a different tune on Judgment Day.
What’s left of the United Methodist Church, at this year’s General Conference, has finally lifted its ban on ordaining openly practicing sodomites into the clergy (https://www.tennessean.com/story/news/religion/2024/05/01/umc-united-methodist-church-general-conference-lifts-40-year-ban-on-lgbtq-clergy-historic-inclusion/73291407007/).
In recent years a total of some 7,500 congregations have seceded from the UMC, largely because of the denomination’s increasingly fervent embrace of homosexuality. The UMC is not their problem anymore. But mostly wokies have been left behind, and now they finally have what they’ve long wanted.
They would have you believe that sodomite clergy, etc., has only been banned by the UMC for 40 years. But it is banned in both the Old and the New Testament of the Bible.
Not that any UMC delegate cares what the Bible says.
Obviously, they do not care, and what God says means nothing to them. As you say, they will regret it on judgement day, but it will be too late then. Poor fools.
Suggestion: Carroll Roberson singing Dear Lord, we thank Thee.
That’s the point; a lot of people do not use the Bible as their standard, these days, and a lot of churches seem to prefer human philosophy over God’s word.
Could anything be more unreliable than that?!?
