These guys are not just attacking the Methodists, they're doing the same in each denomination -- we'd be kidding ourselves if we think there is not a movement across denominations to undermine various Christians churches.
We stand together or we fall.
I cannot agree more. This is part of an assault upon the whole body of the church and no denomination is safe. The goal is to corrupt the whole church whether Protestant, or Catholic, or Orthodox. You are quite correct when you say that we stand together or we fall.
No doubt the methodists will spin off an alternative to protect the traditions and teachings of 2000 years.
As I have posted on several other threads, these actions are programmed, organized, well-planned.
Gay and lesbian organizations are planning to take over churches, drive Christians away, and then take church property for themselves. It has already happened in Canada.
Ka-ching.
GLAAD and other gay and lesbian organizations are rich, powerful, have big legal departments, and are greedy for as much money and property as they can get. They access taxpayer money through ‘arts grants’, they have millions and millions in corporate donations and from foundations, and they are going to roll right over the lowly common peasants.
It’s about MONEY and POWER and these gay Methodist ministers are just part of a long-term strategy.
Fight for your church!!
Which is exactly what Satan had in mind when he inspired a perpetual fragmentation machine and why division is still his tactic of choice in every case.
Sincere non-Catholic Christians and sincere Catholic Christians who all agree that Christ is their Savior have consistently allowed themselves to be divided by the profiteers and Humanists who have completely taken over so many non-Catholic denominations and who make up a significant percentage of "professional Catholics" and Catholic clergy.
It's no longer a matter of keeping this nation from becoming an essentially pagan nation, it's now a matter of whether or not Christians in this country can become strong enough in their faith that Christ will reward us by letting us lead the battle to win the majority back to faith in Christ rather than faith in Humanism. And make no mistake, it will be a fierce battle to overcome Humanists who have convinced the majority in this country that the most real and important sacrament they can participate in is the self-gratification of sex in spite of such behavior leading to the murder of millions of infants each year.
I have heard such Humanists argue that homosexual sex should be praised by Christians since it cannot possibly lead to abortion, and I've heard people who call themselves Christian agree with them. Is it any wonder that we have the society we deserve rather than the one Christ once blessed us with? Until those who are sincere followers of Christ become more focused on defeating Humanism than on arguing their doctrinal differences, we cannot possibly expect Christ to reward us with any sort of victory against the pagan Humanism that now rules.
