It drives me nuts when schools, the courts, colleges, tv, the media, government, and those in politics back or bless sin.
It drives me nuts when schools, the courts, colleges, tv, the media, government, and those in politics back or bless sin.

However there is something else that concerns me and makes me even more upset than all those groups backing sin and that is when those in the so called church world endorse sin.

Well, that has happen again another church body is encouraging wrong and sin.

Episcopalians in New Hampshire elected the church's first openly gay bishop on Saturday in a vote sure to fuel debate in a denomination divided over homosexuality and same-sex unions.

The Rev. V. Gene Robinson was elected bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire on the second ballot, according to the Episcopal News Service.

The leadership of the national Episcopal Church, which counts about 2.5 million members, must ratify Robinson's election during a general convention meeting in Minneapolis in July.

The dad of two grown daughters, Robinson now lives with a male partner. He was in a heterosexual marriage when he acknowledged his homosexuality in the mid-1980s and break up his family.

When the tally was announced, the clergy and lay delegates leaped to their feet and applauded as Robinson came to the front, stood before the altar rail and embraced his two grown daughters, his son-in-law and his partner.

Robinson said the rift in the church could be healed if believers stayed focused on their faith in God, and in the sacrament of communion, adding, "We can get through this if we keep coming to the altar rail."

What about doing what the Bible says true faith and true love of God is not about backing sin.

Is this church next going put in office a person who has not repented of raping another person? By the way I would feel this way if this person was cheating on his wife with another lady.

A church that gives its blessing to sin is a church that you might want think about leaving if you are part of it and a church that backs sin will not get the blessing of God.
