Isaiah 5:20 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.
The Episcopal church has devolved into being a gay/Marxist
pit of Hell.
I was once the senior warden of a very very old Episcopal church.
The only unforgiveable sin.
I promise you that any of the sinful things you say or do can be forgiven, no matter how terrible those things are. But if you speak against the Holy Spirit, you can never be forgiven. That sin will be held against you forever. Mark 3:28-29
Paul also said women shouldn’t speak in church. Should be applied here, I think.
Well, there's their first mistake.
Acts
16 And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying:
17 The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation.
18 And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour.
19 And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew them into the marketplace unto the rulers,
read
"16 And now, as we were on our way to the place of prayer, we chanced to meet a girl who was possessed by a divining spirit; her predictions brought in large profits to her masters. 17 This girl used to follow behind Paul and the rest of us, crying out, These men are the servants of the most high God; they are proclaiming to us the way of salvation. 18 And when she had done this for a number of days, Paul was distressed by it; he turned round and said to the spirit, I command thee to come out of her, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; and there and then it came out of her.
19 Her masters, who saw that all their hopes of profit had vanished, took hold of Paul and Silas and dragged them off to justice in the market-place. 20 When they brought them before the magistrates, they said, These men, Jews by origin, are disturbing the peace of our city; 21 they are recommending customs which it is impossible for us, as Roman citizens, to admit or to observe. 22 The crowd gathered round, to join in the accusation; and the magistrates, tearing their clothes off them, gave orders that they should be beaten; 23 then, when they had inflicted many lashes on them, put them in prison, and bade the gaoler keep them in safe custody. 24 Thus instructed, he put them in the inner ward, and secured their feet in the stocks. "
Well clearly she slept through theology 101
Yes most definitely!
This church has just gone off the deep end and that is all I have to say about it.
How long before they are openly calling for sacrificing babies to the Lilith?
Here’s her wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katherine_Jefferts-Schori
Why am I not surprised she supports abortion, gay marriage, and is against the belief of individual salvation?
Leaving aside this “bishop’s” lack of doctrinal and scriptural understanding, which is abysmal and already well commented upon, I note an error in the preface of the article.
She delivered the address at an Episcopal church in Steenrijk, Curacao; not Caracas, Venezuela.
Caracas is the seat of the diocese of the parish she was visiting.

They already call abortion a Sacrament.

“Theres more. An Episcopal priestess, Carter Hayward said, Abortion would be a sacrament if women were in charge. Abortion should be a sacrament even today. I suspect that for many women today, and for their spouses, lovers, families and communities, abortion is celebrated as such, an occasion of deep and serious and sacred meaning. No comment is really necessary here.”
