Foundry United Methodist Church Embraces Open Spiritual Whoredoms
The Methodist Thinker has a sorrowful article today on the willful whoredoms of a prominent United Methodist Church in it's embrace of homosexuality and rejection of 2,000 years of Church teaching and practice. While I am an enthusiastic supporter of the Confessing Movement, I fear their efforts might be too late for much of this utterly apostate church. Perhaps it is time for the remaining Christians in the UMC to leave and form or join with other conservative and orthodox Methodists in creating a new and Christian Methodist Church.

Indeed, John Wesley wouldn't recognize the UMC if he were still alive today.
I believe he would be completely aghast at what passes for Christianity today under his namesake banner. Pray for repentance on their behalf.
The members should leave in protest and join the Free Methodist Church.
Doc,I wish it were that simple but I fear the "membership" is quite content with what their "leadership" is doing.
What will happen is that there will be North American UMC that is very liberal and then the rest of the UMC worldwide will be more conservative (for a while).
The dark continent (Africa) is actually much more Christian than the North American continent. Also, South Korea is the most Christian nation in the world. They are very conservative.
Doc, that is a good observation. World wide UMC conferences have recently defeated efforts by the liberal elements of the US UMC to weaken their influence. Like their Anglican counterparts, third world Christians still have a great love for Christ and fully embrace conservative evangelicalism. We can praise God for that.
