She can join the Unitarian Church where they have no standards or bounds to behavior or conduct.

Yup - wrong as a football bat. The Methodists went "united" back in the 60s when I was young and it's only been downhill since then. As I've mentioned on FR previously, my uncle was a lifetime Methodist and helped his small-town congregation build their modern facility that replaced their century-old country church. However, when he passed away in 1998 at age 94, not a dime was in his will for the church, surprising me greatly. I got a sense he was disappointed in multiple ways. This article exposes just one: the acceptance of females into ministry.

The Methodist haven’t been a Christian group in 25 years or 30 years

Well, you got fired, didn't you? So far, so good.

I suspect that most of these poor souls, who get it in their heads to become shepherds of God’s people, with the intent to convince them that sexual immorality is a good thing, must be posessed by demons to one degree or another. No rational and healthy human being could possibly get into the pulpit and proclaim that for one man to stick his penis into the butthole of another man is God’s will.

We are living in a very dark dark age, and God will not be mocked.

The approval of society gained by accepting homosexuality as normal.

The day she "came out," whoever hired her should have called her in, sat her down, and explained that while she was free to indulge her perversion -- and even celebrate it -- she would have to do so from some other pulpit because she was no longer pastor at this church.

There would be no conversation, dialogue, or rebuttal. She would be given 15 minutes to gather her belongings and vacate, never to return.

She is right about one thing - God is not done with her yet. Prayers for her soul.

Of course they do.

Come out as a Trump supporter, and you'll be out of there so fast your head will spin.

“wrong as a football bat.”

In the army we used to say “wrong as two boys kissing”...not anymore though.

Next crisis for the lesbian heretic will be a sojourn in hell that will last an eternity.

^ this

While on a purely spiritual front sin is sin is sin; yet, as we are not just spiritual beings sexual sins hold a special danger.

They not only dig into us on the spiritual or emotional level but rapidly and vigorously affect us on the physical level too, digging deep into our brain chemistry.

This is why sexual sins are especially dangerous.

But when one adds basing their sense of self on top of sexual sin, as has seemingly become more and more the case amount homosexuals, and not just transsexuals, what is added on top of all the dangers of sexual sin is a mighty fortress for the enemy of our souls right where no human needs one.

What other classes of sin so easily encourage people to wrap up their whole sense of who they are with them? Do thieves or liars tend to see themselves as a such or is it just something they do, or even just something they like? Ditto with murderers or even heterosexual fornicators.

But with homosexuals and transsexuals it becomes their sense of self, and therefore they think an issue for civil rights as well as casting aside Scripture.

Prayer is the best way to tear down such strongholds even when the prisoner of their sin is ignorant of God.

Romans 1 describes people who built up such fortresses against them repenting even though they have known about God.

This gal is not in a good place to be.
