Old news. Been that way for years.

The United Methodist Church, for example, at a recent General Conference, explicitly rejected the statement that the mission of the church is to “make disciples of Christ for the salvation of souls,” replacing it with the approved statement that the mission of the church is to “make disciples of Christ for the transformation of the world.”

In other words, the UMC formally declared itself to be a secular progressive political institution, and rejected an identity as a Christian body following the core belief of Christianity.

And, by the way, in all practical ways, the UMC is fully on board with the LGBTQQZA political movement, as it is with the Palestinian movement, the Islamic jihad movement, the socialist movement, the communist movement, the racist race-baiting movement, the global warming movement, and every other secular progressive, left-wing fashion in support of tyranny and at war with liberty. And Christianity.
