Sheesh! My grandfather, who graduated Theology at Emory in 1910 or thereabouts, would be horrified. He was a Bible-believing, old-fashioned, cold-water Methodist preacher. He also was the closest person to a saint I've ever met.

What does Emory Theology say about the Apostle's Creed (let alone the Nicene Creed)? ("He shall come again with glory to judge both the quick and the dead")

I can't answer your questions about Emory. However, perhaps you and others will find it interesting that Bishop Sprague has angered a large segment of the United Methodist Church with his public rejection of Jesus Christ's eternal deity, virgin birth, bodily resurrection and unique atonement for the sins of the world.

This comes from the "UM Action Briefing" dated April, 2003. I will look to see whether the newsletter is available online.

I believe Bishop Sprague is in deep trouble with the Methodist Church and may be forced to resign. There is a movement under way to get this done, per the following:

". . . it is fundamentally fraudulent for him (Sprague) to attack the traditional Christian faith while serving as Bishop of a Christian church. Decency and integrety require his resignation or removal."

As a member of the United Methodist Church I will contribute financially and as a volunteer worker to get Joe Sprague removed as Bishop.

The Methodist church was infiltrated years ago by the communists and liberals. Some of the things that the UMC has supported lately is homosexual marriage, homosexual pastors and chirch leaders, anti-war/anti-U.S. organizations, ad nauseum.
