"BISHOP SAYS, "THE FRUIT
OF THE SPIRIT DEEPLY PRESENT IN THE LIVES OF GAY CHRISTIANS""
According
to this article at http://www.episcopalchurch.org/3577_52922_ENG_HTM.htm?menu=undefined
Presiding Episcopal Bishop Frank Griswold said, "There are those
among us who perceive the fruit of the Spirit deeply present in the lives
of gay and lesbian Christians, both within the church and in their relationships.
However, other equally faithful persons among us regard same gender relationships
as contrary to scripture. Consequently, we continue to struggle with
questions regarding sexuality."
According
to Jude verses 17-19, the Apostle Paul said, " But beloved, remember ye
the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who shouild
walk after their own ungodly lusts. These be they who separate themselves,
sensual, having not the Spirit."
