You make a mockery of your alleged belief in God by making lame attempts at reducing some of his children to lesser beings.
Why don't you read and lean about who God's chidren are, because not everyone is his child. Some are His children, while others belong to the devil. Jesus put it very plainly: when you do the bidding of the devil, you belong to the devil. Gay marriage supporters are doing the bidding of the devil.

Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, everyone who sins is a slave to sin. Now a slave has no permanent place in the family, but a son belongs to it forever

Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I have come here from God. I have not come on my own; God sent me. Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say. You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me!
You can do whatever you want, but marrying gays in church is making mockery of God, the Bible and Christian faith. Maybe that's what the homosexual agenda is all about.
Maybe when the 30,000+ denominations of the "christian" faith can agree amongst themselves what the bible says is a sin, and what is not, I MIGHT listen.

The Bible also speaks of the love of money being the root of many evils and it being easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven yet the self-righteous haters seem to consistently embrace both the love of money and rich men.
I've been considering leaving the Episcopal Church for a few years now.
This makes it a no brainer.
This? This makes it a no-brainer? Not the rewrite of the Prayer Book, not the ordination of "priestesses", not the ordination of openly-gay priests, not the consecration of openly-gay bishops, not the election of a female metropolitan - and one who proposes a "quaternity" at that.
No, the breaking point was the decision of one cathedral chapter to do what a great number of churches already do?
If such consequential decisions haven't forced your hand, and yet such an unremarkable though headline-grabbing decision does, in what sense have you been in the Episcopal Church for a few years now?
Something in the Bible give you the right to judge?
I didn't think so
It is the word Of God himself that rebutes the sin. They are not my words . Take a look at the Word of God to find the truth about Homosexuality and the last days God himself wrote how rebellious man becomes and follows satan who kills , steals and destroys the people who follow him into sin and corruption.
God's word is the judge. And God's word will stand forever. He created us and his sovereignty reigns. God is never mocked. Yet those who rebelll against God will destroy themselves.
The God of grace comes when the sinner REPENTS OF THEIR SIN. Grace is there for that reason.
Grace is not there for sin to abound. Today the world uses the word tolerance . The Christian gives grace for the sinner who repents , not for the sinner who wants to stay in their sin.
God has written. Should grace about that sin abound. God forbid .

Uh yeah, all that other stuff has been pushing me away.
The main reason I'm fed up though is the Church keeps supporting all these left-wing charities that do nothing but harm people. I'm tired of my money going to that crap.
There's a new church starting up near me and the Priest was ordained by the Rwandan Diocese. They are much more traditional. I'm gonna check it out before I officially join another church.
