Do Episcopal leaders read the Bible?
Just a curious question. The Episcopal leaders seem bent on pushing a particular point of view, even if it destroys their church. How do they get away from this:
Romans 1:27. and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in their own persons the due penalty for their error.
As Catholics, we follow natural law as Paul does in Romans. Many of the Protestant churches have abandoned natural law as they seek to appeal to non-Christians (ex. Legitimization of birth control). Unfortunately for them, natural law is as compelling as gravity and its effects are just as real. So no matter how the Episcopalians justify these actions, they still contradict natural (read: God’s) law. Paul writes:
19. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. 20. Ever since the creation of the world his invisible nature, namely his eternal power and deity, has been clearly perceived in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse;
How can they read the Bible and support these policies? Just wondering.
