Done Deal! Church of England Votes to Bless and Affirm Same-Sex Civil Marriages

We all knew they'd get there

Staff Writer

The Church of England’s General Synod voted this week on a historic proposal to allow clergy to offer prayers of thanksgiving for same sex-couples and bless same-sex civil marriages in the church, backed by the support of Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury, in a shameless repudiation of the scriptures and the God of the Bible.

The scheme to bless and affirm homosexual relationships is the result of six years of “study” and “evaluation” by the Church under the Living in Love and Faith (LLF) project, which is the vehicle used by pink-haired and dapper progressives alike to create a new framework for acceptable sexual morality within the church. According to reports:

The final motion was passed across the synod’s three ‘houses’. The House of Bishops voted 36 in favour, four against with two abstentions. The House of Clergy voted 111 in favour, 85 against and 3 abstentions. The House of Laity voted 103 in favour, 92 against, and 5 abstentions.

The bishops will now finalise the wording of the new prayers and also issue new guidance on whether gay clergy must remain celibate before the synod meets again in July.

In short, apostates gonna apostate. For decades the deplorable Anglican denomination has been drifting on issues of theology and human sexuality, proving time and time again the 26 million members are not the least bit committed to upholding the biblical teachings, but instead adopting the worst excesses of the woke movement in a pathetic and desperate attempt at relevancy.

This is just more of the same.

Found the British Kristin Du Mez! "In the early church debates, marriage did not mean sex...Betrothal, handfasting ceremonies, and bundling were commonplace, all traditions which specifically sanctioned and had liturgies around premarital sexual intercourse..." (1/2)

"So as a historian, no, the church has not taught consistently for 2,000 years that sex outside marriage is a sin...For much of our history, discussions about marriage have not been about sex primarily, but about power." (2/2)

me looking for the limiting principle that keeps this guy's argument from also affirming the "sexual Other" known as pedos

Romans 14! (an attempt was made) "Don't permit an argument over what is served or not served at supper, or who wants to get married, and wreck God's work among us. All food is good. Everything God created is good." (1/2)
