So what’s worse, this deacon “M” or a bishop named Sally Dyck?

Sad, a fine denomination at one time now completely hijacked by left wing freaks. This “deacon” is not even the worst of it.

Barclay finished seminary and went to work as the youth director at a United Methodist church in Austin.

The UMC should remove Church from their name. They are a leftist PAC.

You can control a lot of things but not how I address you. If you complain about it, I will accuse you of age-ism and able-ism

It isn’t so important what this church in the Northern Illinois Conference did. What is very important is how all the other United Methodist Churches in America react. God is watching and waiting.

Well, let’s face it. UMC stopped being a church of God years ago.

Another real good reason why I left the Methodist Church . . . actually, they left me. Add this to the fact that they can’t find any Biblical passages that prohibit abortions (Thou Shall Not Kill), I’m completely done with this circus.

This is Abomination.

God is not mocked. Vengeance is His. He will repay.

As a Methodist i have been following along. We lose ground to the leftists with every conference. our Parrish are talking among ourselves as to what to do. a good many want to split with the UM and go our own way but many have simply left and gone over to the(Southern) Baptist church.It is heart wrenching to watch this.

Complete with tattoos.

Total “degenerate”.

And was this a guy or girl? Can’t tell what the baseline is!

"The United Methodist Church Has Appointed A Transgender Deacon"

Of course they did. BUT, is it disabled (or differently abled?)

I’ve left.

The blasphemy is too terrible to associate with

Pray for the remaining churches and Christians still within the denomination

Would be more accurate to use the pronoun “it”!

Kind of looks like Keanu Reaves. This is what happens when churches no longer treat the Bible as God’s word. And it will continue to get worse.

"The United Methodist Church['s]... official rules say clergy must either be celibate or in heterosexual marriages, and can perform only such marriages, but American bishops have ordained gay and transgender clergy before, and clergy have conducted same-sex marriages."

The rules ARE what they allow with impunity. What's "official" is used toilet paper.

God bless the Southern Baptist Convention. For all of their faults, they are the only major Christian church group to my knowledge which has been steadily and increasingly disfellowshipping such apostate member congregations without apology.
