It is not merely “Official Methodist teaching” that recoils from same-sex relationships of the kind practiced by those who would call it a “marriage.”

Colorado-based Bishop Elaine J. W. Stanovsky, who handled the complaint against Talbert, said the settlement showed Methodists can work together on the issue.

"The Just Resolution Agreement ... is a reminder that United Methodists don't have to be divided by their differences," Stanovsky said in a statement. "The conflicted parties came together, prayerfully listened to one another, challenged one another, and searched for God's guidance for themselves and for the church."

"Searched for God's guidance"? Um. Genesis 19, Judges 19, Isaiah 5:20, Matthew 19:4-6, Romans 1, 1 Timothy 1:9-10, Revelation 21:8....those words of God should suffice.

Doesn’t look to me like there was any punishment or even a slap on the wrist. I guess “just resolution” is just that, a resolution in name only.

In every aspect of our morals, culture, politics, economics, religion etc.,Western Man proves himself incapable of any resistance to any assault. God Help Us!

John Wesley would have no part of this abomi-nation, versus a "holy nation," and the remnant within the UM needs to separate, as do all those who are in such compromising churches of this degree or worse.

Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. (2 Corinthians 6:14-18)

The mentions two types of priests or clery “men” and states that one type serves God and the other Satin/Evil. It is simple as that. We know this one serves evil.

I was raised Methodist; that denomination has been apostate for a very long time. They ordain women, for example - that unscriptural doctrine leads to more.

I remember the Church sending me around with an orange milk carton to collect for UNICEF as a kid.

Couldn’t be more obvious that it’s just a front for new world order.
