“Helped a 13-year-old girl get an abortion”
Underage? Did he report the sexual abuse? If not, he’s an accessory to the crime!
The PC (USA) proudly marries fags too.
This will be the death of Christianity.
Not merely support for a political position, it is in fact a sacrament of his faith.
And that’s why Presbyterian churches have been closing their doors faster than Sears stores.
PCUSA is apostate.
Presbyterian PCA broke away from them in the 70’s
This guy is bound for hell.
Yeah pastor, God loves pride. S/
I don’t know if you are interested, but the Book of 2 Timothy is a great letter in the Bible that Paul wrote to Timothy that addresses this very issue.
THANKS. I WILL CHECK THAT OUT.
Cumberland is Presbyterian in polity only. They do tend to lean liberal.
I am currently Associate Reformed. Nice, solid Presbyterians.
I had never seen Associate Reformed Presbyterian until we moved to North Carolina.
Here is a short overview:
1 TIMOTHY gives direction for the order of the assembly; 2 TIMOTHY gives direction for the path of the servant of God when the assembly is in disorder and failure. In 2 TIM. Paul sees for himself the RUIN of that which he had built and watched over so faithfully.
1 TIM. is about the building UP of the Church. 2 TIM. views the Church in ruins, and instructs the man of God as to his personal conduct IN the midst of the RUIN.
(Charles Welch, The Berean Expositor XXXI)
2 Timothy is Paul’s last epistle. It was written to detail the APOSTACY that was ALREADY upon the church. It is a letter of instruction and edification in light of widespread apostacy.
Within the space of 1 TIMOTHY and 2 TIMOTHY, apostacy had taken hold.
Scary, huh? And we wonder why we don’t trust organized religion and seem to get more out of God’s Word when we STUDY His word rightly divided. 2 Tim. 2:15. Notice it doesn’t say to go to a church building or learn traditions and doctrines of men in order to please God. It says STUDY, not just read passages, but study what HE has so lovingly given us.
I hope this helps!

Thank you so much for taking the time 2 point all these things out to me and I will definitely read further into what you have sent to me.
Very kind of you to respond and such a courteous and helpful manner it really makes me want to research further and study
Let me know if I can help you further.
I don’t want anyone around here having a stroke because I said study God’s word for yourself and do not depend on others tell you it says. When you hear something or someone tells you something, always ask for the Scripture they are discussing. Then look it up for yourself to SEE if those things are so. The Holy Spirit resides in each member of the Body of Christ and is there to teach and lead us until Christ returns for us. He will NEVER let us down. MAN will, with their traditions and doctrines for fallen men by fallen men.
God bless!

Mostly a Southern thing.

There is something called the “revoice” movement in the PCA that is trying to change the church’s stance on homosexuality.
Also, some PCA churches now have women deacons.
BTW, every church that has ordained women as pastors, goes on eventually to ordain homosexuals.
The OPC split from the mainline Presbyterian church in 1936, due to the mainline wanting to de-emphasize preaching the gospel in their missions work. They wanted to make it pretty much only humanitarian. We don’t need any of this Bible stuff. Men who wanted nothing to do with that left the mainline denomination and started the OPC. The PCA split in the seventies (I think), and that was mostly due to the mainline church becoming increasingly leftist and political.
Aren’t you glad you asked? ;-)
