Sadly, I'm not shocked by this. This "church" has hosted drag shows each June and said they would only hire a openly gay minister several years ago.
That’s right.
Indeed.
They’re just heretics and nothing more.
Fishing is not a job?
(I’ve had girlfriends try to tell me that before)
They say “Pride” to cover their heart’s shame.
They’re oblivious to that shame because they’ve closed their ears from God.
They can’t reproduce so they try to “convert” other people’s children.
They missed the memo about the millstone but it awaits nevertheless.
Just another leftist heretic.
As stupid as Lincoln was gay because he shared a bed with a man. Beds back then were luxuries. Often shared.
Some of them may be as far gone
as the men who were roaming the
streets of Sodom and Gomorrah 😟
They didn’t like being JUDGED when
they were actually being WARNED ⚠️
They’re absolutely committed to their
cause - they will not stop 🛑 (most)
The men in the streets of Sodom and
Gomorrah didn’t even think about
repenting - they only said that they
would do WORSE to Lot than what they
had planned for the two angels of God
And they planned to gang-rape them
(as if that would have been allowed
to happen - absolutely wouldn’t)
Genesis 19:4-11
King James Version
4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:
5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
6 And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him,
7 And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.
8 Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.
9 And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn, AND HE WILL NEEDS BE A JUDGE: now will we deal worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door.
10 But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door.
11 And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door.

People who want to further this agenda
are flying in the face of Almighty God
I pray 🙏🛐✝️🙏 that they
Read, Learn and Repent of this Abomination
2nd Peter 2:6-9
New King James Version
6 AND TURNING THE CITIES OF SODOM AND GOMORRAH INTO ASHES, condemned them to destruction, MAKING THEM AN EXAMPLE to those who afterward would live ungodly;
7 and delivered righteous Lot, who was OPPRESSED BY THE FILTHY CONDUCT OF THE WICKED
8 (for that righteous man, dwelling among them, TORMENTED HIS RIGHTEOUS SOUL from day to day BY SEEING AND HEARING THEIR LAWLESS DEEDS)—
9 then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations and to reserve the unjust under punishment for the Day of Judgment,

“Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” was preached at Enfield.Edwards was alarmed at the moral relativism he saw rising like mist out of a fetid swamp ,even 284 years ago.
I saw what you did there! LOL Love the double entendre of “knew”
St Paul was right.
Acts 20: 29For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. 30Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. 31Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears. 32And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.
Stick with Paul and his letters to the Gentiles and you can’t go wrong.
IMHO, Romans 1:16-32 best describes our current cultural decline. Verses 18-23 talk about denying the existence of God. Which leads to normalizing heterosexual immorality (v 24-25), then gay sexual immorality (v 26-27), then other sins, including normalizing murder.
16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation [from His wrath and punishment] to everyone who believes [in Christ as Savior], to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17 For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed, both springing from faith and leading to faith [disclosed in a way that awakens more faith]. As it is written and forever remains written, “The just and upright shall live by faith.”
Unbelief and Its Consequences
18 For [God does not overlook sin and] the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who in their wickedness suppress and stifle the truth, 19 because that which is known about God is evident within them [in their inner consciousness], for God made it evident to them. 20 For ever since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through His workmanship [all His creation, the wonderful things that He has made], so that they [who fail to believe and trust in Him] are without excuse and without defense. 21 For even though they knew God [as the Creator], they did not honor Him as God or give thanks [for His wondrous creation]. On the contrary, they became worthless in their thinking [godless, with pointless reasonings, and silly speculations], and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory and majesty and excellence of the immortal God for an image [worthless idols] in the shape of mortal man and birds and four-footed animals and reptiles.
24 Therefore God gave them over in the lusts of their own hearts to [sexual] impurity, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them [abandoning them to the degrading power of sin], 25 because [by choice] they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.
26 For this reason God gave them over to degrading and vile passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural [a function contrary to nature], 27 and in the same way also the men turned away from the natural function of the woman and were consumed with their desire toward one another, men with men committing shameful acts and in return receiving in their own bodies the inevitable and appropriate penalty for their wrongdoing.
28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God or consider Him worth knowing [as their Creator], God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do things which are improper and repulsive, 29 until they were filled (permeated, saturated) with every kind of unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice and mean-spiritedness. They are gossips [spreading rumors], 30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors [of new forms] of evil, disobedient and disrespectful to parents, 31 without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful [without pity]. 32 Although they know God’s righteous decree and His judgment, that those who do such things deserve death, yet they not only do them, but they even [enthusiastically] approve and tolerate others who practice them.
This is the next town over from me.
I thought our churches were wacky. This guy is nutty.
Still a horrifying story about the human capacity for depravity. After rejecting virgin girls in hopes of turd-burgling; the perverts, despite being struck blind en masse by supernatural means, still groped for Lot’s door.
What more does God have to do to make his opinion of homosexuality clear - nuke them? Oh wait...
Sadly.
What does that make James Talarico?
If the folks buried out back could get up and leave they would.
How ridiculous?
Well, I heard that He hung with some prostitutes as well.
SpelChunk got Untied wrong.
