Does the evangelical egalitarian spectrum include those who affirm gay marriage?

By Jim on Mon, 02/19/18
Fundamentalism & Evangelicalism
Egalitarianism
Gay Marriage

The quote: “All egalitarians, by contrast, believe that husbands and wives are to relate together in mutual submission rather than a marital hierarchy. Yet not all egalitarians think alike. The most progressive egalitarians believe in gender equality to the point of upholding monogamous homosexual marriage and the ordination of appropriately gifted homosexuals.”

If you poke around, you’ll see it. Suffice it to say that I’d question whether they’re truly “evangelical” in the historic sense, but yup, they’re around.

Aspiring to be a stick in the mud.
