H. Richard Niebuhr indicted liberal Protestantism for teaching "a God without wrath who brings humans without sin into a kingdom without judgment through a Christ without a cross."

If God is without wrath and this blasphemous abomination is "a small taste of what heaven must be like" I'd rather go to Hell.

"This is a small taste of what heaven must be like," said the Rt. Rev. V. Gene Robinson

Too bad you're going to the other place.

COLUMBUS, OHIO (6/16/06)-Over 1,000 homosexual and pro-homosexual clergy, bishops, and laymen of the Episcopal Church celebrated Eucharist Friday evening at Trinity Episcopal Church, just blocks from the site of the 75th Episcopal General Convention. And in the end times, right will be presented as wrong, up as down, and evil will strut about the planet protected and praised as enlightenment.

"The Spirit of God is that part of God which refuses to be contained...God won't just stay put, and God won't let you and me stay put, content to believe the things we've always believed," said Robinson.

Hebrews 13:8 (King James Version)

8Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

Numbers 23:19 (New International Version)

19 God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should change his mind.

James 1:17 (New International Version)

17Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.

"Remember how we used to think of ourselves, that we believed the church when we were told we were abominations."

Leviticus 18:22

22 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination.

Romans 1:27 (New International Version)

27In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

Revelation 21:8 (New King James Version)

8 But the cowardly, unbelieving,[a] abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”

That's it. They're describing the anti-heaven, or hell. They are the anti-church with the spirit of the anti-christ headed for anti-heaven.

"This is a small taste of what heaven must be like," said the Rt. Rev. V. Gene Robinson, Bishop of New Hampshire, as he began his sermon to the prolonged cheers of the adoring congregation. Then Robinson was brought to tears as he thanked his homosexual partner Mark, three years after the Episcopal Convention at which Robinson's election as bishop was affirmed.

This is bringing tears to my eyes reading such blasphemy!

I don't know how this man can look in the mirror. He's a total Narcissist who seems to care little about God or the chaos that he has caused in the Episcopalian church.

I think this quote from the article is quite profound:
In a Good Friday Sermon about Isaiah 53 that Philander Chase preached as a young man, he criticized those who disregarded the truth of the Bible in his day. "If the mere assertions, (of people, who talk much but read little, and think still less,) are to be the grounds of our exploding truths, and of giving up our belief in matters of the highest importance, which have been examined and credited by the wisest of men, Where shall we end?"

Bishop Chase, if he were to return to his old Trinity Church for Eucharist this evening, would find there the answer to his question. For there the Episcopal Church may have had its end.

The Sodomites are surely going to force a schism, as the rest of the Anglican world abhors their joy in abomination.

Because of their intolerant employer (The Holy Father), Cardinals Maphony, McCrackhead and O'Malleable are not able to make it, but they would like you all to know that they are with you in spirit.
