The Washington Post and other media outlets report that the 4,000 member First Presbyterian Church in Colorado Springs has voted to sever their ties with the nation’s fourth largest denomination over homosexual acceptance policies. In particular, the integration of  so called “gay christians” has left widespread damage, division and apostasy in its wake.

The albatross of gay theology/ideology is causing a growing number of successful churches to unburden themselves from the edicts issued by their parent denominations.  Most of the mainline denominations are hemorraging members and churches on a consistent basis. For example just last month, the 3600 member First Presbyterian Church of Orlando broke ties over the denomination’s unbiblical homosexual acceptance policies. GCMW  strongly encourages every member church in progay mainline denominations to begin taking formal measures to break fellowship and leave the dying “progressives” to wallow in their self imposed folly.

Ninety percent of members of FPC in Colorado Springs voted for the split.

The Colorado Springs Gazette reports that, in an informal vote, 88 percent voted to split and align with a newly-formed governing body, the Evangelical Covenant Order.

Ministry official Alison Murray tells the paper that the church will proceed with the split and soon take a formal vote, probably in late April.

KRDO-TV reports that senior Pastor Jim Singleton cited disagreements with the denomination’s direction, including a decision last year to allow the ordination of gay and lesbian clergy in committed relationships. Church leaders are expected to vote this summer on whether to allow ministers to officiate at same-sex weddings.

Any denomination that accepts and affirms homosexuality might as well prepay their burial costs. The stench of death is heavy on the Presbyterian Church USA and all those who believe God should exit before they are consumed with the walking dead.  This, people of God,  is what allowing the leaven of gay christian theology will do to your local church and any organization which permits this wickedness to have place. Congratulations to the courageous leadership and membership of First Presbyterian Church of Colorado Spring who choose to stand with God’s truth and not man’s lie.
