Gay unions in the church must be acceptable. Only when most of the flock either leaves or splits off will I believe otherwise.
I wouldn’t attend a church one day after an edict like this.
Past, present or future, God exists outside of time, and modernity is meaningless to Him. His truth is therefore unchanging, and those who seek to make accomodations that undermine or negate His truth are not of Him or of Christ. Ergo, despite the buildings, despite the rituals, despite the misperceived sense of cultural belonging, they are not Christian.
It’s that simple.
Actually, this has been happening for years. The Anglican Church broke off and there are fewer Episcopalians today.
The church voted for liberalization of their parishes and traditions, and the members voted with their feet.
