After I read what Hillary said the other day about reading her bible, I wondered how we could be raised in the same church and come away so different. She must read a different bible than I have or reads hers upside down or needs stronger glasses or something.
How can anyone who has seriously read the bible believe in abortion, homosexual marriage, never mind the acts, trans gendering? Some of this certainly deserves our compassion. The Methodist church has held the line on homosexual marriage last I knew but years ago there were two lesbian Methodist ministers out west who were raising an artificially inseminated baby and pastoring a church.
Don’t kid yourself, the Methodists (UMC) have fallen all but technically. The latest instance of a Methodist minister “marrying” two men has gone unpunished, unconvicted, after a Church trial. Their official policy may condemn homosexual acts, but that is just a “technicality” that is all but ignored.
A sure way to know if a Christian church group is well on its way to apostasy and irrelevance as a Christian group is to determine whether they ordain women for the ministry. The Methodists did this long ago.
