I'm pretty sure the real reason why the methodists are doing something about Glide Memorial Methodist Church is because they have strayed too far from Methodist teaching.
They have removed the cross from the sanctuary and rarely serve Eucharist. If Glide doesn’t hold to at least these basic actions, then it can’t be United Methodist.
Kell Brigan: buddy, I did that long ago. I discovered that Christ instituted one church. His church! (Eph 4:4-6) I discovered that there are “denominations” in the Bible because there in only one church. The churches of Christ is in the Bible! (Rom 16:16) Does the Methodist denomination follow the Bible? NO! If you don’t follow the doctrine of Jesus Christ then you are not a friend to Jesus (John 14:15 & 15:14) I’d love to study with you. The truth will make you free! (John 8:33)
This pretty much sums it up. All are welcome who want to grow closer to God as a disciple of Jesus. Activist behavior designed to create discord and division is not. There is no oppressor or oppressed here unless someone is attempting to force their "enlightened" definition of sin on an entire congregation. @dV6c
Exactly. Gay rights activists who misinterpret Scripture while ignoring most of it are just as bad as the sexist male-only bullies who misinterpret one line in Timothy and ignore the rest of the New Testament. You can't isolate pseudo-proof texts to support a radical, clearly unbiblical position. God save the traditional, orthodox, biblical Methodist Church.
I clicked on this, wondering if it was about that very thing you're alluding to. During one of my visits when I was himeless, not to mention many years before the two leaders were in their now former positions, a speaker wanted to quote a Scripture and asked over the microphone for someone to hand them a Bible. Nobody had one. Not even in the congregation or the rest of the building (they sent people looking).
Is really odd that I've looked for reactions from those who are pro the traditional position and haven't been able to. Why the media doesn't want to cover their view it speaks clearly to me that the agenda is to push by all means a practice we all understand is not ok at church. We love and embrace everyone but also remmimd all of us to repent and leave previous behaviors that bind us and condemn us in the past. Wether is sexual immorality or anything else contrary to the word of God.
In the last days Christ warns us, his people, that Good would be Bad, and Bad would be Good. Christ also warns us that many will come in His name and are ravenous Wolfs in sheep clothing to deceive his people. (Ephesians 6:12 King James Version, 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.) SATAN has always wanted to destroy Gods creation and when God created man and later He later created woman, Satan set his sights on Eve and through her deceived Adam and put God’s creation in sin. Genesis: 22 Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. 23 The man said, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called ‘woman,’ for she was taken out of man.” 24 That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh. The Bible provides God’s blueprint for marriage and for His good gift of sex in Genesis 2:24. The gift is only to be enjoyed within a marriage between a man and a woman. There are no exceptions suggested, such as homosexual partnerships. From Genesis on, the Bible praises the marriage of a man and a woman, but it speaks only negatively of homosexual behavior whenever it is mentioned. The Old Testament states, “Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable” (Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13). The New Testament agrees, listing “homosexual offenders” among a list of people who “will not inherit the kingdom of God” unless they are cleansed through Christ (1 Corinthians 6:9-11). God commanded us to love the sinner but for his church to love a sin and accept that sinful lifestyle as good is that not the damnation of His church and people. The way the UMC has gone is nothing but a SINFUL acceptance of SATAN in our pulpit and lives and gives him a position of authority over God’s Children. The wages of sin is death and death awaits you that follow this sinful way in life.
A church that maximizes service and lessens dogmatic services is most Christlike. Other churches should follow their example. As an aside, and merely a conjecture with no proof whatsoever, could this be the Wesleyans attacking support for gays?
We are all sinners in the eyes of the Lord the minister cannot save you the church could not save you the congregation cannot save you you cannot save yourself what are you going to do come to Jesus for he loves you and he will save you for Jesus said do not be deceived for there shall be many that will come in thy name Jesus said the only way to the father is through me with your personal relationship that you have with him everyday in your life for Jesus said you are forgiven go and sin no more and turn away from Evil things that is in your life this could be the church that you go to that Jesus was talking about do not be deceived in the word of God

The Bible is by no means silent, on the subject of homosexuality. So let us look at God's Word… from the Old and New Testament. Rom 1:27... "And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet." 1 Cor 6:9... "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate (homosexual), nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God." 1 Tim 1:10... "for fornicators, for sodomites (homosexuals), for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine, These laws are for people who are sexually immoral, for homosexuals and slave traders, for liars and oath breakers, and for those who do anything else that contradicts the right teaching" Rom 1:26... "For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: That is why God abandoned them to their shameful desires. Even the women turned against the natural way to have sex and instead indulged in sex with each other." Matthew 19: 4-6... "And He (Jesus) answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that He which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife (the female): and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder." Lev 20:13... "If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall be] upon them." Of course people are not put to death in the US for the act of homosexuality… but the eternal end is the same if they do not repent. Under the New Testament we now have a redeemer who when we cry out to him for what ever sin we may have committed and ask for forgiveness and turn away from that sin whatever the sin… He will forgive us AND cleanse us from all unrighteousness. A beautiful promise from our Heavenly Father. 1 John 1:9… "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." Beautiful, beautiful promise from our Heavenly Father. Jesus clearly speaks on the issue of homosexuality in Matthew 19:4-6… and also warns all people everywhere to repent from sin (no matter the sin… not just homosexuality)… "I tell you, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." Luke 13:3 (KJV) Love people enough to lovingly tell them the truth... to show them the whole of God's Holy Written Word and what it actually says. This is love. I say this to all those who may be a homosexual (or to those who just support their agenda)… and are reading these Bible Scriptures.... know that we have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. You see sin is sin no matter the type of sin committed. But God's Holy Word is clear that the sins we do with our own bodies, our own flesh... are even worse... whether it be adultery, fornication (which is sex outside of marriage), homosexuality, lesbianism, beastiality etc... if we do these things we are desecrating our own bodies which are made in the image of God... and by God... to be temples of the Holy Spirit. If a person does not have the Holy Spirit in them nor a relationship with God/Christ they are not saved... and desperately need to seek God with their whole heart. Without repenting of sin there is no eternal salvation. Nothing unholy can enter heaven. Revelation 21:27 says… "And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoeverworketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life." Grace does not cover unrepented, unconverted, proud sinners… who feel there is nothing wrong with their sin... when in fact there is... and it will lead them to hell... not heaven. Oh Heavenly Father help the gay community to know Gods Truth from your Holy Scriptures... that they may repent and be saved. Thank you Heavenly Father. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen. 2 Peter 3:9… "The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." Therefore Believe the Gospel… Repent… and be saved. Much Love in Christ's love and truth, Carol

It's great to be a community outreach program, but there still has to be a structured church that respects the traditions of Methodism!!
Glide is walking the walk of Jesus and not talking.
They have removed the cross from the sanctuary and rarely serve Eucharist. If Glide doesn’t hold to at least these basic actions, then it can’t be United Methodist.

Jim Fariello, I always appreciate someone who takes time to write all the scriptures in their comments. Thank you.
Fake News, Exhibit 1. Churches usually do some service with secular impact, but Job One is preaching the Gospel.
Job One should be preaching the TRUE GOSPEL!
The one that’s in the Bible!
Glide Church preaches the gospel but more importantly is the gospel. Love in action. Compassion in action. Forgiveness in action.
Job one is the service to others as taught by Jesus. He never required a church service.
Who needs the United Methodist Church officials: antiquated as they are!
Jesus doesn't need them! Jesus needs Glide's program of charity for His poor!
Amen!
