Ping!
What’s this “proud” cr**. Typical gay ego....exploiting himself like he’s some kind of hero.
Good news.
Although I think his gay lifestyle was probably known to those around him where he worked, and presumably his bosses further up the ladder.
He should have been removed long since. But better to remove him now, for making it public, than letting him get away with that as well.
Who am I to judge is a major fallacy used by “Christian” thinkers. Jesus never directly pronounced upon Sodomites. Secondly, Jesus expressly told the woman taken in adultery “go and sin no more.” The latter statement is ALWAYS omitted. The Sodomite usually says he will stay with his Sodomite buddy implying he will continue to use that persons anus. In short, the active Sodomite is telling Jesus “buzz off.” Lastly, there are statements by Jesus saying “Judge Just Judgement” implying if your judgement is just it will not be counted against the one uttering the Judgement.
No, we are not suppose to judge, but if your committing a sin, it should be called out, and this is a sin...being gay is not something your are born with, God doesn’t make mistakes, and this gay crap is just that, crap....
While Christ saved us from our sins on the cross as a complete atonement, as we all know, homosexuality is a mortal sin of abomination to the Father and should never be tolerated by Christians.
Two things:
1. How do you know Gods plans?
2. How do you explain androgyny? If it wasn't a mistake, did God intend that person to have the sex organs of a man and a woman? And if an androgynous person isn't a mistake, how can you be certain God did not create a homosexual?
There are lots of 'defective' humans. All created by God.
Hate the sin, love the sinner.
Even Al Jazeera homepage critizie this decision
The gay priest announced he had a 'partner'. If a straight priest announced he had a 'partner', he would have been fired, too. It's simply against the rules. Sin is not a factor.
... It’s simply against the rules. Sin is not a factor...
Its a housekeeping issue.
The same way I explain spina bifida, club feet and cleft palates.
Birth defects.
“...The gay priest announced he had a ‘partner’...”
He broke his vow of celibacy and that is all there is to it.
Unrepentant sin IS a factor.

I implore you to carefully look at the written word. We are absolutely 100% called to "judge." Sound doctrine is key to living the life of a Christ follower. Christ said I came not to "destroy the law but to FULFILL the law." This fulfilling of the law is providing people with the correct interpretation of the scriptures. It is in fact a Hebraism. This is what the Rabbis would use when someone was misinterpreting the scriptures - they would say "you are destroying the law." If a pedophile comes in to your church/synagogue can a person really tell me that we cannot "judge" the person?? We are just supposed to let the wolf in and have him destroy the flock. The pro-sodomy's MAJOR accomplishment has been to keep Christians from "judging." This allows them free reign to spread their poison in the church. JUDGE righteously - that is the calling of ALL followers of Christ! When someone comes in with a doctrine of devils we are to immediately capture it and take it in to captivity. Don't allow the false doctrines in to the church. Christ is all about reconciling sinful man to Himself. The approach to those who are caught in sin should always be in the love of the Living God.
Determining who is a sinner or not is above my pay grade.
Now and the at the hour of our death.
So did God make a mistake? Or did he create someone with a defect? Just like homosexuality is a defect.
God didn’t make a mistake.
Adam and Eve made mistakes.
He definitely wanted out of the priesthood.
