THE DEAR GAY ANGLINS LETTER

A group led by aspirant, Pieter Valk, has put out a letter entled, Dear Gay Anglins, rponse to the College of Bishops’ pastoral letter on inty. In many of our partner provc, the practice of homosexualy is agast the law, and to make matters more difficult, they ually don’t unrstand the nuanc of the word “gay” or “homosexual attractn” — they jt hear the practice of same-sex immoraly. Others signed out of angry disagreement wh our disuragg the e of any pronoun before Christian, specifilly “Gay Christian.

The Bishops noted “that the stggle wh human inty is real and paful for Christians who experience same-sex attractn” and reject the e of language that intify such people for who they are- Gays; preferrg that they be addrsed as “Christians who experience same-sex attractn”. The College of Bishops also upheld a mment to subsidiary which fers to dcan bishops, discernment on how to handle homosexuals their church muni.

GAY ANGLINS THE ACNA

Its appeal to subsidiary is another trick not to subm to the clear thory of Scripture on homosexualy, rather, they fer to dividual Bishops discretn of discernment on how to relate to homosexuals, and offer them room.

GAY CHRISTIANS, ACNA AND GAFCON

In the same ve, we nnot scribe people as ‘Christian Murrer’, ‘Christian Adulterer’ and ‘Christian terrorist’; neher should we even have ‘Gay Christian’ or ‘Gay Anglin’. Takg advantage of the ACNA Bishops Pastoral Letter, a group wh ACNA published an vatn to ‘Gay Anglins’ offerg them vatn and pastoral acmodatn ACNA parish.

We appreciate Archbishop Foley Beach’s terventn by which the offensive Gay Anglin letter was removed om the web; but this has not cured the diseas that has set already neher has migated the damage this has done by the public advertisement and the changg perceptn of the ACNA stand on Biblil orthodoxy and GAFCON Movement.
