Commenting On Today's Hard Pressing Issues From Biblical Perspectives

More Methodists Support Clergy Performing Gay Weddings| Christianpost.com

As odd the headline may look and knowing fully well the reaction that my opinion may bring concerning this subject, I thought it wisely to blog on this hard pressing issue which has left many bewildered & confused, it is therefore prudent for people with sound biblical knowledge and godly perspective to put people clear on what is the mind of God over it.

Any person who believes that the bible is the infallible word of God would have no problem in refuting lies basing his argument on the infallible word of God, because every Christian knows that thoughts & actions are been judged by the Bible, regardless of what people may say, the word of God remains unchangeable, because God does not change.

I would also like my readers to evaluate what I am about to say with the word of God & then come to conclusion by themselves, you should allow the Holy Spirit (Ruach Ha-Kodesh) to freely speak to your mind by the living word of God.

I am going to comment on the news article using the bible (King James Version) as my final authority.

More United Methodists are throwing their support behind clergy in California who want to perform same-sex "marriages" despite the denomination's stance that homosexual practice is "incompatible with Christian teaching."

This should be a clear sign that the "United Methodist" are really out of track and are setting a bad example in the society of what Christianity ought to be, if the people who ought to be outspoken and opposing against this plague are the very ones supporting it, it therefore means the our generation is headed towards destruction without a remedy.

On Thursday, delegates from the Northeastern Jurisdiction Conference of the United Methodist Church - from Maine south to West Virginia - approved a resolution expressing respect for clergy in the California regional bodies who participate in wedding same-sex couples "as a matter of Christian conscience, spiritual discernment and prophetic witnessing," as reported by the United Methodist News Service.

These delegates are nothing more than the agents of darkness who are bent on bring swift the judgement of God, whose sole purpose is to bring damnable heresies into the house of God in order to make it a safe haven for evil, now what kind of expression of respect do these clergies deserve, they don't deserve a dime of respect, they ought to be considered as perverts who are suppressing the truth of God in unrighteousness & hypocrisy, if these people believe in conscience as they claimed, they wouldn't have given & express their respect to those who are trying to overthrow the truth of the reality of the foundation of our New Testament faith instituted by Jesus himself, they should have known that God will judge those who are trying to twist his word to deceive the simple hearted, as it is written:

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; (Romans 1:18)

We should therefore know that God is no respecter of persons, he (God) is ready to pour out his wrath and deal with anyone trying to hold the truth of his word in righteousness, therefore people should take precaution.

The vote comes months after the United Methodist General Conference, the denomination's highest governing body that meets every four years, rejected changes to its constitution that would have liberalized the church's stance on homosexuality. In April, measures that would have removed the ban on noncelibate gay pastors and the statement that homosexual practice is "incompatible with Christian teaching" were voted down after emotional debates.

Now my question is this; are we to follow a man made institution obeying men rather than God, or are we to stand and base our decisions based on the infallible word of God, should we be men pleasers or God pleasers? Saying that the homosexual practice is incompatible with the Christian teaching is a kind of compromised watered down statement, but rather we should boldly and fearlessly declare that homosexual practice is an abomination before the eyes of God, it does not matter what the clergies have to say, it matters what God has said in his word.
We do not judge thoughts, actions & doctrines based on the church constitution, we judge things based on the infallible word of God which is the church’s final authority-period, emotional debates are Satan's masterpiece of deception, the church of Jesus is not controlled by emotional nonsense, she is controlled by the Holy Spirit.

In the following months, however, regional conferences have approved measures supporting homosexuals after the California Supreme Court legalized gay "marriage" on May 15.

This should be made clear to everyone that perverts are running the house of God, if these people begin approving of homosexual marriage, it means that our children and future generation are not safe, except God does something.

Methodists from the California-Pacific Annual Conference passed in June a resolution supporting same-sex "marriage" and encouraged congregations and pastors to welcome and embrace such families.

Get real Mr.clergies, what kind of family or families are you guys talking about, God instituted family or Satan oriented kind of families made up of homosexuals, what kind of children would such families produce, perverts of course.

More recently, more than 80 retired United Methodist clergy from northern California have offered to conduct same-sex "marriage" ceremonies on behalf of clergy who cannot perform them.

And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. (Romans 1:28-32)

These men have been cursed before the foundation of the earth, they are undeserving & abominable.

The latest move by the Northeastern Jurisdiction Conference, which met July 13-18 in Harrisburg, Pa., for its 18th session, was applauded by pro-gay Methodists. Acknowledging that the United Methodist Book of Discipline – Church law – forbids churches and clergy from performing same-sex unions, the approved resolution also asks for lenient disciplinary action against clergy who disobey church law on the issue.

And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. (2 Corinthians 6:16-18)

A well meaning believer or minister of the gospel should immediately quit from that kind of congregation, because it will not take time and they would be crushed by the fierce & terrible wrath of God which does not spare evil.

Laws can only be changed by the General Conference and this year, many have opposed changes and called Methodists to be faithful to biblical teaching.

Thank God that there are people who are still faithful to him, but they should leave immediately, because their opinions would be considered intolerant and they themselves would be seen as traits & terrorists.

Conservatives, meanwhile, observe a continuing liberalization and decline in the United Methodist Church.

Membership has dropped annually since 1968.

Amen to that, let the Holy Spirit strip them of every member that they are leading to hell, the decline is a sign of their sorry spiritual state in which they have debased themselves with perverted mindset.

The Northeastern Jurisdiction Conference is one of five U.S. jurisdictions serving United Methodists. Delegates met this week to elect and assign bishops for the next four years among other business. This year's meeting was themed "Extreme Church: Extreme Expectations."

Then we should also add, extreme perversion, extreme destruction, extreme nonsense.

Herein is God's final warning to His faithful remnant:

Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this is the time of the LORD'S vengeance; he will render unto her a recompence. (Jeremiah 51:6)
