‘Married’ homosexual serves on parish council in pro-LGBT bishop’s diocese

Image
Peruse the  online biographies of the St. Clare Parish Council  in California and one comes across this line: “John and his husband Willie are the parents of twin third graders at St. Clare School.” As it turns out, not only is "John" a member of the parish council, this man who is “married” to another man is also employed by Catholic Charities , “training psychology interns and providing bilingual mental health services.” For the last decade or so, local Catholic Charities across the country have been chased out of the adoption business in one jurisdiction after another because of their belief that children deserve both a mother and a father. Yet that belief evidently does not extend to employees at Catholic Charities of Santa Clara.    Parish Is Under Pro- LGBT Bishop McGrath St. Clare Parish is in the Diocese of San Jose , headed by outspoken pro- gay Bishop Patrick McGrath .   Just two weeks ago,  McGrath issued a terse letter  to the priests and ot

Creation and Homosexuality

Does the Creation account of Genesis 1 preclude homosexuality when it presents God ’s design for the creation of man and woman in the “image and likeness” of God? The Revisionist Answer The Creation account is concerned solely with reproduction—multiplying and filling the earth. The design of the creation of human beings does not inherently oppose homosexuality as an identity for some people. The Biblical Answer Genesis 1:26–30 testifies that man and woman were made complementarily for each other; together they were made for God and form the image of God. Only the couple, man and woman together, reflects the totality of this divine image. A homosexual couple mirrors only themselves, two males or two females who come together. Does the account of the purpose and plan for marriage in Genesis 2 exclude a homosexual relationship? The Revisionist Answer The purpose of the account of the making of a woman for man is to empower the reproduction and preservation of the sp

Anglicans could consecrate UK bishop who is against homosexulity without permission from Archbishop of Canterbury

Anglican church leaders from Africa and Asia are considering consecrating a bishop who stands for biblical truth on the sin of homosexuality - as a ‘missionary’ to the UK , without permission from the Archbishop of Canterbury . Deep divisions have arisen in the global Anglican church over LGBT issues, which has been exacerbated by the shift in culture and by some Anglican who are homosexual in defiance of scripture. In the past few years, LGBT infiltrated churches with homosexual leaders have become angry because of African archbishops who are against LGBT sin, while the Church of England is also considering adopting a more liberal non-biblical stance. Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby recently vowed to go back to the drawing board on LGBT sins, promising “radical new Christian inclusion in the Church”, though details of any agreement are murky. Biblical Anglicans have been frustrated by the discussions – and that a number of Anglican Archbishops from Africa and Asia are c

The Apostle Paul is very clear he is speaking of homosexuality not pederasty

Objection Stated Paul is only speaking of pederasty here, not of adult homosexual relationships , and hence the passage is misused when applied to homosexuality.   This is the viewpoint expressed by Robin Scroggs in his work The New Testament and Homosexuality. It is commonly repeated in liberal theological institutions. Biblical Response Paul speaks of “males with males committing indecent acts.” He does not say “men with boys” (and there are appropriate Greek words that Paul could have employed if he meant to communicate this idea), nor does the text give the slightest hint that this should be read into it as an assumption. The desire expressed is mutual between both the lesbians of Romans 1:26 and the homosexual males of Romans 1:27; that is, there is no evidence whatsoever that this is written in reference to pederastic relation ships . Indeed, the mutual kind of desire seen in these verses utterly refutes the simplistic assertion that these words are to be limited to pede
