Lesbian Bishop Calls Jesus a Bigot
PJ Media ^ | September 26, 2017 | John Ellis

Posted on 09/28/2017 8:49:15 AM PDT by C19fan

United Methodist Church bishop Dr. Karen Oliveto is not only a lesbian, she also believes (and publicly teaches) that Jesus was a bigot filled with prejudices. She does say that Jesus grew and changed, and that's her point. Bishop Oliveto admonishes, "If Jesus can change, if he can give up his bigotries and prejudices, if he can realize that he had made his life too small, and if, in this realization, he grew closer to others and closer to God, than so can we."

No question that some time in the late 60s, it was decided by the Queers that the best way to advance their cause was to infiltrate the Churches. And now it’s bearing its’ rotten fruit.


That is a fact, they did not have 100 percent success in Hollywood so they went for the phony Churches and are having great success.

...”Methodist clergy”...

I can only go by my experience with Methodists in my hometown. most were very liberal minded people for quite a number of years so I suspect their Pastors were as well....today even moreso as they’ve really fallen off the cliff.

This so-called bishop has no idea who Jesus is.


That is true but i believe we should be putting the blame where it should be, the abominations called Churches or religious institutes.

Yes, it’s Satanic. Are we really this far gone as a civilization, that a lesbian can now tell Jesus to change? Who is she, that she can tell the Son of God what to do? Satan has control of her stupid mind.

With her ‘reprobate” teachings she will destroy all ground on which to repent and believe, there will not be a way back. ...Clearly and willingly being used as an instrument of the enemy of mens souls....out to destroy. There is no safe haven in the dark place she and her followers are at.

God often concentrates on morals and focuses on the teachers/preachers.... Because He has appointed them to be the conscience of His people.....They do tend to lead the people either into morality or immorality...one or the other......Like the tip of the spear or the point of an arrow that points the direction of the congregation. They are leading indicators of the condition of the church family.

.. “An astonishing and horrible thing has been committed in the land: the prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests rule by their own power.”

But even if a minister is not doing their job, pointing out the sins of the people for whom he is responsible to God, they still, individually, have the responsibility to obey God regardless.... Her followers are accountable to him for choosing to remain under her ‘dark’ teachings and for that they will remain or go into darkness themselves.

Because she was ‘appointed” Bishop I wouldn’t call that an infiltration....rather that comes from the top down. It’s ‘leadership’ has “chosen” to take their Institutional Church down this path quite willingly.......they lost Christian leadership years ago...

Satan himself quoted scripture in the temptation of Christ, though it was misquoted, He is still very much active in the churches today..and is the first one in the door! It’s an easy thing to call ones self a Christian...heck muslims are doing so as refugees in order to remain in their host countries.

But it is quite another thing to ‘show’ one is a Christian....sadly today it’s not uncommon you cannot tell the difference.

....”we should be putting the blame where it should be, the abominations called Churches or religious institutes.”.....

Well actually Jesus informed us this very thing would come so no one should be surprised. Further it could not happen unless ‘the people’ wanted it to be so.

The blame goes on people who have turned away from the living God , (whom they are NOT ignorant of), and willingly become of reprobate ‘minds’ who can no longer distinguish good from evil, right from wrong.

Thus we also have peoples destroying Christian landmarks, and all this ‘removing’ of that which represents Christianity. ...this too was foretold would come...and further ‘something else’ would fill that void, which is this ‘counterfeit’ we’re seeing happening today....which will have it’s dark purpose in time...just as it’s written of.

......”Are we really this far gone as a civilization”....

I don’t think it’s a matter of how far we have gone as from the beginning of time it’s been a down hill trajectory. What happened along the way, to ‘pause and consider’, was the arrival of Jesus Christ and what that means for mankind.

We are told these things would happen, as vile as they seem to us, I think we’ve seen it coming pretty rapidly since the 60’s. It’s not going to get better as to morality and the “junk Christianity” being spewed today.

I think of Ecclesasties...”There is a time for everything done under the sun”....we are in a time that things are moving along for the ultimate plan and purposes foretold to happen....of course God can speed it up or slow it down at any time....but the trajectory is not going to change.

HE did say it would be as the days of Noah.....and actually we can see much of this today.

She’s making a lot of unfounded assumptions about Jesus to support her position.

It ain’t working.

She's projecting, and doesn't have juvenile records anyway.

This is a woman who in her arrogance refuses to live the life nature gave her. You can see it in her twisted attitude toward Jesus Christ and his teachings. If you follow normal teachings of the church, homosexuality is very wrong. If you object, you have to make up your own story. Apparently she has. Queers do.
