Well, I'm staying and fighting, although many on this forum seem to regard that as heresy.

May your rewards on earth be plentiful. The ones in Heaven are assured. The enemies of God and His Church would like nothing more than Christians and Jews create a little community and abandon the whole earth to satan who stole it but loses a little of it every time we pray, every time we remember that the Battle belongs to the LORD.

Maybe it's just that we have different opinions. That should be ok, eh? in a discussion.

I sincerely hope that you are not like so many of the Episcopalian brothers & sisters I left behind two years ago to "stand & fight." Not a single one stepped forward in January to stand for election to the Vestry - the one place where they are most likely to have a "voice" in the goings-on of the church. Not a single one even spoke up at the annual meeting to decry the heresies & abuses of church leadership at all levels. Not one volunteered to be a delegate to the Diocesan convention where they could cast a dissenting vote on establishing blessings for same-sex marriage or the ordination of homosexual priests. Sadly, their idea of "stand & fight" is to sit quietly in the pew each Sunday & designate their pledged giving not go to pay the Diocesan assessment. When "The Lesbian" shows up to celebrate mass, they excuse their absence from church by saying they didn't feel well, instead of speaking the truth & letting everyone know precisely where they stand on the issue of non-celibate homosexual clergy.

If one is going to "stand & fight," one must, first, make it abundantly clear to everyone just where they stand on the issues & then actually do something besides warm a pew. Anything less merely emboldens the heretics & apostates because they've seen with their own eyes that they do not have to fear opposition or correction as they continue to lead the church further & futher down the path to Hell.
