Sounds like your classic tempest in a teapot ultra-conservative Reformed/Presbyterian debate to me. Honestly, I don’t think this touches 1% of American evangelicals...
Any professing conservative Calvinist teachers pressing for sodomy-marriage simply need Church discipline.
HOGWASH!
Scripture is living, AND ACTIVE and even though a hearer may attempt to disdain it, the Holy Spirit has a way of moving through even the hardest hearts and bringing to Himself those whom He seeks.

Unfortunately, the case of Misty and Lee Irons in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church shows that “Radical Two Kingdoms” theology has given birth to bitter fruit.
I'm prepared to listen to an argument that this is an extreme view — “R2K” instead of “Escondido 2K.” I'm quite aware that many of the more mainstream Escondido 2K people have developed a “natural law” argument for why homosexual marriage and homosexual adoption violate natural law and general revelation, essentially coming to the same position as standard Christian conservatives using a different route to get there.
The problem is that Lee and Misty Irons are not the only people saying such things, and I remain seriously concerned about the entire movement. Time will tell whether the Irons are being consistent with the fundamental principles of the “Two Kingdoms” theology.
