Anglicans, Let's Talk

despite the problems/ challenges facing the anglican communion world-wide, i am not ashamed to say i am an anglican. i believe it is one of the churches the Lord will use to usher in the last wave of revival that will precede the Lord's coming. how do we tackle the gay problem?
how do we stop the heavy migration to the new generation churches?
how can we make the church a better place?
please let us reason together here. God bless you

Sorry oh me I am not an Anglican and I do feel for you guys breaking up, but what was the real reason for the break up is it that homosexuality thing again.
Someone showed me something interesting in the bible about it, what the bible condems is the act of male homosexual sex, not homosexuality and not even lesbianism, why the beef?

You should be ashamed of calling yourself an Anglican being that the connotation for the word is Church for Anglos or English people. Are you from England , abi did your forefather form the church.

Please what do you mean by ushering in any revival. When the anglican breakaway was formed as a result of King Henry wanting to divorce and remarry and the Catholic church at that time did not condone such act or the breakways that followed because the church ws taxing the hell out of people at that time.

Where is the divine calling in that?

Woman, instead of fee, it is spilling of blood, for you. Whats the difference?!
The blood thingy is so commercialized y'all. Hey now. lol.

My casual friend, until you ecome Muslim, you will be real friend of mine: I can help myself.
I got to take a swipe at you, every which way till sunday.

I talked of grizzlies.
you talk of beast.
show me grizzly

when we say anglicans in this context, we refer to the church in communion with the church of england, it is not an ignorant connotation.

we must not be deceived by terminologies, bible apart, marrying, and or having sexual relationships with persons of the same sex with us in not natural. homosexualism or lesbianism is wrong in every place at any point. let us stop the self deception

@kobomoje
Don't make statements from a misinformed point of view, learn to use google. Do a search for homosexuality in animals and see for yourself.

Thanks for your advice, but I do not think this is above human understanding at all just read for yourself and inform yourself, you have the bible with you try and read it with an intelligent mind.

i wonder o. As if it is not one of those deranged fellow that wrote the stuff .


LOl. so u r even using animals 2 justify human misbehaviour?     , pity!

MADAM,

Abeg not that I have anything against the Anglicans or the Lutherans but it would be nice of you all to actually know the history before you even speak.

Anglican church came to be because Hnery VIII wanted to divorce his wife and marry another and the Catholic Church wouldn't let him, staying true to scripture that says he who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery.
The Church won't grant him a divorce so he got angry, he decided that he needed to be the head of the Catholic Church and not the Pope. That all the apostles and disciples should be answerable to him and him alone, all because he wanted to divorce his wife.
The Church refused so he went ahead and founded the anglican church. When his wife refused to leave the church he locked her up and deprived her of his daughter until she died.
He then launched a massive killing of all Catholics, until he died and then his daughter with his first wife came to the throne and made Catholicism the official Church of england again, and Killed protestants (this is where America came in, and the KKK killing of catholics in america) out of anger to avenge her mother until her younger sister Elizabeth came into power and killed more Catholics.

So I guess it is right to say thank God that Henry VIII decide to make himself head of God's church so that he can disobey the word of God.

Now for the Lutherans. That one is even funnier, Luther decided that several books of the BIBLE were not to be in there, such as James, Hebrews, Jude, and Revelation. He also questioned the writings of Esther, Ecclesiastes, he said Kings was to be more believed than Chronicles.
Well later on the four books of the New Testament was put back into the Bible. I still want to know why.
A lot of you are so happy that he left the Church and as some would say "exposed" the Church.
Yet he denied the very same book that you all call the Word of God, that you all swear by, that you all live your life by, that you all are so quick to quote.

It's so funny thought because Luther said that the RCC was the whore of Babylon that was spoken of in Revelations, but still claimed that Revelations wasn't to be held as truth. HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.
It makes one wonder.

So yup thank God for them, they deny Christ, they deny the Word of God, but they were the true Christians. Amazing!!!!!!

By the way, if there was one thing that Luther and the Anglicans did not deny it was Mary as Mother of God, and thy believe in the saints.
They never denied the honour that is due her.

They also don't deny that the bread and wine once consecrated is the REAL PRESENCE of Christ.

ANYWAY, most of you are follow follow, you hear onething here, and you take it and run with it, without even checking.

The point most people are making here is you should try to open your eyes a little wider and not ignore facts that are true and can be proven. For one stop calling your self an Anglican. It has no bearing on your salvation and anything your church is doing in terms of world matters like homosexuality is only undercover politics and power struggle. Can't you see that?
