By the way, in case I need to say it: prayers up for Methodists who wish to stay faithful to Christ.

Thanks. We need it. It’s only a matter of time with our pastor. He’s spineless....and makes 6 figures. He’ll cave soon. Then, most of the church walks. I see it coming. We live in a very conservative area.

Amen.

Wonder if they ever read Genesis?

There will be a fight...ongoing for years... about gay marriage and clergy at General Conference and prayers are needed and welcome that our traditional, biblical definition of marriage is not changed in our Discipline. This weighs heavy on my heart. The northern and western states are pushing for it and have been for years.
United Methodists may one day not be United.

Yes, but the fact is, division is inevitable, even Jesus said around 2,000 years ago, that people would divide over his own words. It’s happening. And frankly, it’s about time for whatever Church, to divide as needed to stay true to the word.
