“The Courage to be Baptist: A Statement on Baptist Ecclesiology and Human Sexuality says the introduction of laws permitting same-sex marriages in England, Wales and Scotland in recent years has posed a particular challenge for churches in the Baptist Union of Great Britain. Unwillingness by churches to ‘countenance any movement on this aspect of sexual ethics,’ the seven ministers said, adds to the burden.” BGN

Look at the names of the seven, and their probable sex. This train left the station decades ago, and now it’s only getting where we all knew it would go.

There is no middle ground on same sex marriage.

The Bible is crystal clear that homosexual behavior is sinful in the eyes of God. Therefore, you either believe what the Bible says, or you reject it.

If you say what God calls sin is not sin, you deceive yourself and the truth is not in you.

If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. -1 John 1:8

Also, we are not trying to single out a particular sin. It’s just that homosexuality seems to be the only sin that some churches are openly affirming as normal and not a sin.
