Good to hear your church is taking strong measures.

Has your church stopped sending money to the GA, Synod, and Presbytery?

The surest and fastest way to bring the radical leadership to their knees is to stop the money flow from the churches to the denominational bureaucrats.

I'm not sure how they're resisting. The head of our session presented the PUP report which suggests that local congregations and presbyteries can ignore ordination standards which require chastity in singleness and fidelity in marriage between a man and a woman for anyone seeking to be ministers or church officers. Our session apparently is opposed to any change in the church constitution that allows the ordination of gays, lesbians, bi-sexuals or "transgender" people. Our minister is vehemently opposed to any proposals that allow local congregations to ignore the church constitution on this point or any other. He apparently intends to stand his ground. The moment of truth for our church will come in June when the GA meets.
