As the Episcopal Church consecrated Gene Robinson the 9th bishop of New Hampshire in November 2003, he wore the customary vestments. He was also wearing a bullet-proof vest. What made the occasion controversial, indeed historic, was the Church's acceptance of Gene Robinson as the first openly-gay bishop in all of Christendom.
Robinson is quick to point out that there have always been gay bishops in the Episcopal Church. "There have been a lot of us, let's just be clear," he said. "I'm just the first openly-gay one."
Almost certainly the first Episcopal Bishop with purple nail polish. This was, of course, a special occasion: a celebration late last fall commemorating his consecration as bishop 20 years ago. The congregation of St. Thomas Episcopal Church, in Washington, D.C., is Bishop Robinson's parish these days. These are very much his people; and here he clearly feels more free, perhaps, to be himself – purple fingernails and all.

He’s a heretic, no doubts about it.
Sick. Perverted. Despicable hell-bound sinner.
God sure seems to be making it much easier to identify the false prophets than in the old days...
God needed more closet space?
He’s a fag Jim
They’re infested
GOD did not call him out. Satan did.
He does not know who he is serving, obviously.
God called us to go out into the world, not to be the world.
Matthew 28:16-20 -- 16 Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Note the last verse -- as part of making disciples from the nations and baptizing them, we're to teach them to obey Him. Also note my tagline. The context of that is when someone says he has a prophecy from God. Paul said to test it first before sticking to it. This "pastor's" teachings promoting hedonism fails the Biblical test. Don't stick to this false pastor's false teaching.
I really doubt that the Lord has changed his mind about fags.
The infiltration of satan into the church was prophesied. No Christian is surprised.
If God called him out of the closet it was to get him set free and delivered of his demons, not to be celebrated and approved of. Jesus left most churches a long time ago and now there is just judgment on them for shunning him and the Holy Spirit from their gatherings. May they, like Nineveh, repent.
I don’t want to hear it but God will be all ears when you two meet. It may not be a happy day for you false prophet.
“Because God wanted it to be all about MMEEEEEE!”
He seems to have a problem staying married all around...
HE's calling you even farther!
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
We’re living in a land worse than Sodom and Gommorah. How long Lord?
Proverbs 28:
12 In the joy of the just there is great glory: when the wicked reign, men are ruined. 13 He that hideth his sins, shall not prosper: but he that shall confess, and forsake them, shall obtain mercy. 14 Blessed is the man that is always fearful: but he that is hardened in mind, shall fall into evil.

It is more important to him, to be a homosexual, than to honor his commitments to his family.
