\nMy Word Like Fire Ministries<\/strong><\/p>\n

Brian Camenker has documented the systematic advance of the homosexual agenda in Massachusetts. Remember when\u00a0Catholic Charities halted its adoption services rather than being forced to send children to be raised by homosexual couples? Take a look at Camenker\u2019s work. He is brief, succinct, and what is happening in schools, adoption, and the legal arena is terrifying.\u00a0 LINK<\/a><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t believe for a minute that this will be \u201clive and let live.\u201d For Christians, and those with traditional morality,\u00a0there will be much discrimination. <\/strong>My Word Like Fire\u00a0recently featured the UK High Court decision that a Christian couple could not be foster parents because they would not teach chilren that homosexuality is moral.\u00a0 LINK<\/em><\/p>\n

A few days ago, a Presbyterian panel acquitted a gay Presbyterian minister (?)\u00a0who married his male partner during California\u2019s short period of legalized gay marriage.\u00a0 LINK<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

The minister (?), Erwin Barron, wrote several\u00a0pieces about\u00a0\u00a0homosexuality within the Presbyterian Church (USA). A complaint had been filed against Barron after he married his\u00a0male partner.<\/p>\n

So how does an alleged\u00a0minister justify living in a homosexual relationship? According to Barron, the Bible is not the\u00a0exclusive or sole arbiter\u00a0of morality.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe also look to the continuing revelation of God in our experiences in history and tradition, in science, in reasoning, and in everyday events to guide us. Scripture and experience both must guide our moral decision-making. And reliance on one without the other can be dangerous and offensive.\u201d* Click here to continue reading.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
