“...discern the movement of the Holy Spirit”.... Really?
Try the Scripture, which the church long ago apparently selectively separated themselves from. Absolutely explains how far off the path.
The church also takes a political stand on this... since when does Scripture inform that.
Almost Unitarians.... zero commit, made up Scripture. A “whatever” belief. Pop crap.
A confirmation, as it were, of their descent through the nine levels...
What is this episcopalians?
They are a left-wing pseudo religious group that basically worships homosexuality. Another belief is that the Gospel has been replaced by the United Nations Millennium Development Goals, which even the U.N. doesn’t really believe in any more. Their “presiding bishop” believes Jesus is a woman (she prays to “Mother Jesus”), and she recently preached a sermon that it is a blessing to be demonically possessed. A totally whacked out cult.
Therefore:
Lutheran (EL C S*A) Ping!
* as of August 19, AD 2009, a liberal protestant SECT, not part of the holy, catholic and apostolic CHURCH.
Be rooted in Christ!
Oh, it is a spirit alright, but a zeitgeist (spirit of the age) which is of the spiritus malignos ilk rebuked in the St. Michael prayer.
Another church that changed to a cult.
Pastor, when will the Episcopols and and ELCA can the traditional celebrations and just recognize “Festivus”?
no, the UK is not leading, this was started by the Netherlands. We just see the UK’s fall as we are anglophone
I’ve read way too much where the UK takes the lead on various government and social movements and the US government adopts it.
I watched this with naive and unbelieving trust -- trust that the church of my mother and the community in which I grew up could not possibly be so dead set against reason, tradition, and truth.
For all that I am sorrowful over their embracing so readily (and so dishonestly) what all the Christian world (or very nearly) rejected, I am even more astounded that now they have thrown admission to Holy Communion open to all, even to the unbaptized!
What Justin Martyr, what Saint Paul took as given, that the Blessed Sacrament was too great to be trifled with, that they exuberantly ignore in the name of hospitality, while they feed the consecrated Bread to dogs and pour the Precious Wine in the flower bed.
And in spite of that, some still pretend to be "catholic." But it is all of a piece. The proper use of the reason is to perceive the Truth; and the proper use of the will is to walk in the ways of Truth.
But all this means nothing to the new Episcopal Church. They see truth as their property, while we rightly belong to Him.
So, once again and still and forever, truth is chained, scourged, mocked, and killed in the sweaty couches of pagans and sodomites.
It is sad, but not surprising.
I mourn with you.
It is not of the intellect, but of the whim. It is not of reason, but emotion. It is not of the ages, but of the moment.
It is the worship of the god in the mirror.
Yes. That is what it ends up being.
