So if you are a paying member of this church you now know your dollars are going directly towards supporting this “lifestyle”. I have to ask - why are you still there? Get the heck out!

Ironic since the UMC is officially an anti-gay Hate church.

I went to a wedding last year at a UM church. The minister was a young woman. She gave a beautiful sermon on marriage, how it reflects Christ's love of His church, and seemed to stress that it is a union of one man and one woman. In fact, I remember how surprised I was at how "conservative" she sounded.

I met the minister and her husband at the reception that followed, but didn't feel it was the right time to get into the specifics of doctrine.

I did not leave the United Methodist Church. The UMC left me and became the spawn of Satan. Something Evil come this way.

I was halfway towards becoming a diaconal minister (music) in the UMC back in the mid-80s, when I switched to college teaching, and also to the LCMS (Lutheran) denomination; seeing what the UMC has become in the last 25 years, it was providential in both senses of the word.

Because of Obamacare? How much money did they get?

This is going to cause a HUGE split in the Methodist church. There are still a large number that do NOT accept this anti-Bible behavior.

I will be asking about this in my local church. Either they separate away from this? Or, I separate way from them.

As Christians we are taught to hate the sin but love the sinner. If a Church, any Church, teaches you to love both, RUN and don’t look back!
