The Associated Press reports that the Church of England’s national assembly voted to allow priests to “bless same-sex marriages and civil partnerships” while, in a most predictable contradiction, “continuing to ban church weddings for the same couples.”
This unionistic measure was proposed by the English bishops “after five years of discussions about the church’s position on sexuality.” It was shamefully approved by the church’s General Synod, made up of worthless bishops, clergy, and laity from around the country, following eight hours of debate over two days at a meeting in London.
This abomination includes “an apology for the church’s failure to welcome LGBTQ people.” However, with the Anglican principle of disunity, it naturally endorsed the doctrine that marriage is between one man and one woman, meaning priests are still barred from marrying same-sex couples.
“I know that what we have proposed as a way forward does not go nearly far enough for many but too far for others,” the pseudo-bishop of London, Sarah Mullally, said in a statement. “It is my prayer that what has been agreed today will represent a step forward for all of us within the Church — including LGBTQI+ people — as we remain committed to walking together.” It is no surprise that this sect, which has never sought after a true unity — that of faith — and pretends that women may be bishops would make this further compromise on doctrine. Incidentally, it is certainly untrue that sodomites and catamites are true members of the Church of God, for only true believers are members of the Israel of God. However, perhaps she merely meant the Church of England, the marks of which being the lie of apostolic succession — but not in doctrine — and hierarchical rule.
“It has been a long road to get us to this point,” Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury, said in a statement issued jointly with the Archbishop of York, Stephen Cottrell. “For the first time, the Church of England will publicly, unreservedly and joyfully welcome same-sex couples in church.” May God use this public abomination to give His children in this Anglican sect the strength to flee their ungodly association, Amen.
