Patrick Woodbeck, who uses He/They pronouns, spent a decade as the pastor of Windsor Park United Church before taking on a position at Gordon-King Memorial United Church.
Both congregations are part of the United Church of Canada denomination, which was formed when liberal Methodist, Presbyterian, and Congregational churches merged to create a new denomination. A Canadian version of the United Church of Christ, they are a denomination so woke and corrupt that one of its most prominent ministers, Gretta Vosper, has spent decades leading her church as an avowed atheist, and she has never been removed.
A proponent of progressive values, Woodbeck espouses not just a collection of the usual antichrist theologies (pro-choice, pro-LGBTQ, pro-euthanasia) but rather also is a practitioner of ‘ethical non-monogamy, a concept he explains in a video:
“So my partner and I have been together for probably 16 years. And so we were exclusive up until four years ago, so we are in a relationship where we can engage in physical intimacy with others outside of the relationship, both together and alone.”

> Not Presentism. Alwaysism.
I am not getting any web hits with “alwaysism.”
BTW are you a preacher? Because of the way that you keep thumping the bible without opening it.
You said presentism. Alwaysism has the same sort of definition, except in the context of permanence.
I am no preacher, but I am aware of what the Bible does teach. I am also aware that we will not survive as a society if we don’t repent get back to being sexually integrous.
God will not protect us from ourselves.
> We are being paralyzed through our indulgences and lack of repentance. If we don’t repent, we are doomed.
> But we aren’t doomed because Muslims are strong. We are just weak.
Well I do not have any crystal ball. If I were in an optimistic mood, the appropriate response perhaps would be “oh ye of little faith.”
I’m a realist. If we repent, then we can put the boots to Islam and force it between the two pillars that Muhammad said Islam will go to.
But we need to repent. Are we ready?
That’s what it will take. That’s just the truth.
Yep. Something about being fed milk at first as a new Christian, and meat later on.
Individuals, as well as societies and God’s people are walking a journey of faith. The Bible is full of stories like that.
I can speak to that experience of eating meat when I am ready to receive it, whereas I was given meat without being ready and I couldn’t digest it.
