The Methodist Church in Korea still has morals. Good for them!

The UMC in America once had a semblance of morals, but that was years ago.

A pastor was brought up on charges for "marrying" two men over a decade ago. The BOD allows such charged clergy to pick their own prosecutors out of the church. Guess who he picked? Went nowhere.

“sexual minorities”?? Uhh, he is a pedo.

This seems really odd to me.

He is suing in secular court, to be reinstated into a denomination which opposes homosexual unions or marriage? A secular court is involved? They are trying to say that the theology of the denomination somehow violates Korean secular laws?

Some pastors have forgotten that man cannot bless that which God has not blessed first. In this fallen world God permits sin to occur as a consequence of His gift of "free will". But that does not mean He offers sin His blessing. And teachers who think they can offer a blessing that God has not offered first would do well to re-read the book of James chapter 3 ... they will be judged more strictly.

(Lee, who was ousted by the church for blessing sexual minorities, including a same-sex couple at the Incheon Queer Culture Festival in 2019.)

Just as prophesied in the New Testament by Jesus Christ Himself:

I don’t know where the Methodist Church in Korea is headed, if they’ll remain internationally part of the United Methodist Church or leave the UMC to join the growing traditionalist Global Methodist Church. I think the action to stay in the UMC, or leave, is done a congregation basis - the local congremation’s choice.

God can’t bless sin only forgive it.
