Blinded Bishop’s Pernicious Pronouncement, or the First Missteps of a New Religious "Ruler"

Family Research Council responded to the newly appointed Bishop of the US Episcopal Church by commenting: “We are witnessing a great divide within the Church in America giving rise to two churches - one that believes and adheres to the teaching of the Holy Bible and the other that rejects it. Yesterday the newly elected head of the U.S. Episcopal Church, Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori said scripture was not relevant to the debate over homosexuality, because homosexual behavior was not a sin. Jefferts Schori, the first woman selected as leader of the 2.3 million-member Episcopal Church, will take office later this year. She is likely to increase the strained relations between the U.S. Episcopal Church and its sister churches in the worldwide Anglican Communion over the ordination of the openly homosexual Gene Robinson as a bishop, whom she supported.”

This is America. We welcome all faiths and beliefs, even false beliefs and false-teachers. The true faith-based Christian Episcopal-Anglicans around the world are only going to be further outraged by this pernicious pronouncement from their new blinded "shepherd".

You can deny the truth all you want. Homosexuality is an immoral lifestyle choice. This remains solidly true and absolute, no matter what any white collared-cleric Ms. Bishop, or Mr. Bishop or anyone else claims to the contrary.

Jesus, Himself, called the religious rulers in His day, which could very easily apply today to the good (sic) lady bishop: "Let them alone; they are blind guides of the blind and if a blind man guides a blind man, both will fall into a pit."

Despite popular opinion moral absolutes do exist, they are timeless, changeless principles that applied thousands of years ago and they apply today. We are not talking politics here. We are talking what is right. Truth is truth. The best, and really only reliable source of ultimate truth is the Judeo-Christian Bible. Our Forefathers new it, many an Americans knows it.

The problem we have today is that the creature has replaced the Creator as ultimate authority. On thing that God clearly declares about homosexuality is that it is an abomination. That means that it is essentially evil, of no redeeming value. He is not talking here, nor am I, about the homosexual, but the homosexual’s behavior. There is a great need in the churches of America to wake up and again look to God and His Word, the Judeo-Christian Bible for its wisdom and light, not a man’s or a woman’s human understanding.

Make A Good Choice and pick up and read, study and apply God’s Word, the Judeo Christian Bible Today!
