I left the United Methodist church for an Evangelical Presbyterian church because of UMs liberal/progressive misuse of scripture. They believe social action is the gospel. The PCUSA has really jumped on that bandwagon lately with its pro-homosexual, anti Israel stance.
Funny, the article made me hungry for pancakes....
I, too, have not set foot in a Methodist church, except for weddings and funerals, since they decided to support the Sandanistas instead of sticking to hospitals and colleges.
“They believe social action is the gospel.”
There’s a growing segment of the Roman Catholic church that feels the same way.
It’s not enough to take up collections for the poor anymore. Many of these churches now have “Social Justice” committees. Take a look at any suburban Catholic church’s website and almost inevitably, you’ll see a link to their “Social Justic” committee.
I call this movement to be the “faith-based wing” of the Democrat party.
