The Scotsman has an article today telling the world the Kirk has ‘finally’ made a decision about its stance on gay marriage.
That’s not actually true…(but when has that stopped the Press…) The Kirk has affirmed a ‘traditional’ stance for many years and has been pushed into a corner where it has to reiterate its stated policy.
The term ‘gay marriage’ is a confusing one. Marriage, by definition in law, as it stands, it between man and woman. To advocate the term only serves to confuse matters.
I understand that the Assembly will be looking at its position on marriage this coming year and the ‘controversial’ aspect of the debate is whether or not to have ‘divorce services’. I don’t know who thinks up these nonsensical notions. Another non-Biblical idea that is an attempt to ‘move with the times’.
So called ‘progressives’ who want to abandon Biblical teaching are being heralded as great thinkers and in chime with the times.
Sometimes things are just wrong…
