#2 A lot of folks (including me) have no real issues with those who choose another lifestyle.

Just don't shove it in our faces every chance you get as we might get real ornery really quick.

Being a born, raised and married by Methodist preacher. In a family that build from ground up 2 old style Methodist churches after working 12 hours and used weekend to finish it.

Our family and blood relatives all converted to Southern Baptist when the UMC went werid in the late 1970's early 80's.

While I agree each to their own, but keep it to your own. So that is between the person and GOD.

But the Bible and even the Koran both clearly state certain acts are a sin.

So given the UMC 1970+ agenda changes, it no longer follows the bible (the Word of GOD) .

So yes I can understand why many are fleeing the UMC and other Liberalized Chruches pimping GOD for $$$$$$. To attend where the Word Of GOD is still preached and practiced WITHOUT caveats.

#5 Church councils, synods or so forth don't embrace the current flavor for the sake of Christianity or the good of the congregation. They do it to check the woke boxes and to make the hierarchy feel good about themselves (Also called "holier than thou.")

#6 Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift each of you like wheat.
