Everybody has “two dads.” Our earthly fathers, and our Heavenly Father.

For this to be so, God and Joseph would have to have been in a homosexual relationship. Beyond the blasphemy- which it clearly is- the person(s) stating this idea is performing an act of theological distortion that would make John Smith shriek in outrage.

Church: ‘Jesus had two dads’

As do we all, one earthly and one Heavenly. One who may or may not be present, the other who is always present.

Reminds me of the Christmas season nonsense uttered buy (faux) Rev. Jesse Jackson: “Jesus, Mary, and Joseph were the first homeless people.” And, not to be outdone, the abortionists’ favorite Christmas card stating, “Every baby should be a wanted baby, like Jesus.”

actually not everyone does.

everyone has a Creator. the saved have a Heavenly Father. God wants everyone to be saved. Not all will say yes to that.

“Reverend” Jackson never read the Bible, did he. I would sure like to hear him call every Jew that had to relocate to the place of his birth during the time of Caesar’s census “homeless” . . .

As for the abortionists, their punishment will come sooner than everyone thinks, especially they themselves.

Of course this is blasphemous.

But this surprises anyone? Both the Methodists and Episcopalians have been officially pro-abortion for decades.

I am sure that the “rev’ would be stunned to hear that St. Joseph was a Craftsman, a Small Business owner, a Taxpayer (which is why he had to register in Bethlehem), a White Person and a Religious Jew. In Fact, the “rev, if he had lived back in the day, would probably refer to Jerusalem as “Hymietown”.

Nor did they have sex, nor demand their relationship be recognized as “normal,” so they could throw a “wedding celebration!”

I'm afraid it is.

One of the country's largest Methodist congregations in Leawood, KS, has embraced homosexuality as normal and has authorized a homosexual "couple" to lead a Sunday School class, under the leadership of Pastor Adam Hamilton

The Methodist Church turned from God a long time ago with their liberal ways. Sadly there are a few hold out churches in rural areas that are dying because members see what is happening in the bigger churches and conventions and leave them. This is what happens when 90% of the tithes are allowed to leave the local church and go to a higher, consolidated entity that does not represent you and your beliefs.

That's true for many Methodist churches in this area, particularly those whose pastors are graduates of the ultra-liberal Claremont School of Theology. However, the pastor at my church, the Fullerton First United Methodist Church, runs a Christ-centered and Bible-based ministry.

I get so tired of stupid and simplistic slogans that liberals come up with. They only prove their own stupidity. It is also very hypocritical, they don’t really believe in Jesus Christ - they just know that Christians aren’t buying their moral code and think that if they can use Christ in their message then we’ll all just fall in line. So they’re making an argument that includes something they don’t even believe in, they think we’ve never read the Bible and are stupid.

I wouldn’t call being executed by the government in the prime of life turning out just fine.

Joseph and God The Father weren’t involved in sinful activities together, quite the opposite..

Previously I'd only seen this line used by proud atheists on Facebook.

"odd" for a "church" to be using it.
