A friend alerted me to this Church's website.
Anyone dare to guess what is wrong with the quote they are using?
Apart from the obvious, there are some other reasons to avoid this church!

Hi Nilmot
I did not forget to post about the fact they had now removed the quote. I had no intention of referring to the fact they had now fixed the quote. My post was a light hearted jab at a unfortunate error.
As to the reasons to avoid the church, well this was meant to be light heartededly as well, not taken too seriously.
However I suppose you are referring to the homosexual issue. I dont support ordaining practicing homosexuals. But my blog is not the place I want to debate that issue with you.

Thanks for the invitation.
This blog is a place for me to air my feelings and thoughts, its my blog!!
My invitation was to check out the website. I think its pretty obvious from what they are proud of, why I, a Baptist Minister, would have a problem with what they are doing. Thats clear.
I think its pretty clear where I stand on the ordination of practicing homosexuals. But I doubt you will change my opinion, or that I would change yours. And I would prefer to spend my time on other things, rather than debating this.
Blessings

No problem Nilmot, thanks for your comments.
can I make one final comment?
I think everyone of us has a predisposition towards sin. Whether that be lust towards anothers man's wife, or another man's boyfriend.
I do not believe a practicing adulterer (with another man's wife) should be ordained as a minister. Nor do I believe that a practicing homosexual should be ordained.
I have come a long way on this issue, and do believe that people can be born with this 'tendency', just as an angry person can be born with violent tendencies.
That does not mean we should practice it, (homosexuality) nor revel in it, as the UCC appear to do.
I do believe to practice homosexuality is a sin, but I am definetly not debating that here, in a public forum, it is far too easy to be misunderstood.
