Good for the congregation in Enid to leave. I’ve always marvelled how the men and women who built the building have their hard work stripped away by one little legal document.

The denomination apparently controls the church's assets. Don't think for a moment the PCUSA won't come down hard on those who don't like homosexuals running things. It means leaving church properties behind. I sympathize. Some might say the church is just a building, and it is, but the members have had weddings, funerals, and other significant life events on those properties and might have spent decades maintaining them through their donations and work. Leaving is the right thing to do, but again, I sympathize. They certainly aren't going to get any sympathy from the pro-sodomite factions.

Good. These liberal churches need to break up. Church leadership is just as far from their people as politicians are from theirs. Time is long past for us to get out of our denominations and our expensive buildings and just be the Church.

When I was a young Christian I couldn't understand the parable of the wedding feast. Now I think it is the people still sitting in pews who will say, "Lord, Lord", and he replies, "I never knew you."
