The United Church of Christ is not to be confused with the "independent Churches of Christ/Christian Churches" which are a conservative, evangelical group of churches having a history entirely separate from that of the UCC.

God does not dwell in that church.

....approve a resolution that endorses same-sex marriage, making it the largest(former) Christian denomination to do so.

Interesting choice for Barak Obama. His wife is at the National Baptist convention in Cincinnati this weekend. I'm sure there were plenty of NBC's in Chicago to join...and they aren't gay churches now or 20 years ago when Obama joined his UCC.
Interesting choice to join a gay approving church 20 years ago.

It’s like God said: there will be a falling away, and then He comes back.

Yep, in Revelation he says that if they don’t repent He will remove their candlestick.
Why waste a perfectly good candlestick on a church that has no light to offer?

voted overwhelmingly Monday to approve a resolution that endorses same-sex marriage, making it the largest Christian denomination to do so. For reasons unknown to me there are lots of atheists who insist on calling themselves....and on being called....Christians.

You suppose Charlie Gibson will pressure Obama to answer questions about his church doing this?
To: xzins
Maybe Obama is gay, or maybe he is just a straight sexist pig.
To: stockpirate
Plus, all their members are homosexuals.

Obama’s church was “TRINITY UCC”, a different denomination entirely. They are into black liberation theology. Although they probably have more than their fair share of gay guys, I don’t think Rev. Wright was into making that stuff public.

I recall a thread about b.hussein homo-sexually involved with the male choir director, Donald Young, who was murdered late last year. Anyone else remember that story?

Wiki is the ONLY spot that claims TUCC has an actual affiliation with UCC.
My understanding is that this is a completely independent church with no ministerial or other affiliations outside the congregation.
For them it's just a name ~ a word.

"Roughly 80 percent of the members of the churchs General Synod voted to approve the resolution." "Neither God nor the Holy Scriptures were referenced or consulted prior to this decision."
There. That's what the editors obviously left out.

It is not the only spot.
The UCC is a denomination. They wouldn’t permit their trademark to be violated.
Beside, liberation theology is right down their alley.
Trinity UCC is considered one of the largest churches in their denomination.
