So apparently some in the PC USA are starting to realize their denomination has some problems.
Apparently some in the PCUSA have started to notice that their church is widely divided between liberals and conservatives, this being in the more extreme fashion. In other words Liberals in the church wanting same sex marriages recognized and the conservatives wanting them not. The article also stated: "A second issue erupted when a minister told a denominational conference that God brings salvation through various religions, not just Christianity, after which Presbyterian leaders affirmed that such discussions are proper." You know that's a pretty big problem. "Yeah you can get saved by Budha or Hindu, heck even Frank down at the Drug store..." Yikes! Catholics have gone through this struggle too. ITs almost like a denomination/relgion's desire to fit in. "Yeah you can bring whoever you want come on please just hang out with us, sure you can do that we won't mind, we'll just look the other way...."
The new conservative group is called the New Wineskins and is seeking the Presbytery to clean up or they're leaving, or something like that. I wonder if they should be told this has already happened? Hello OPC 1920s and PCA back in 1973. I wonder if someone from our respective denominations should call them and invite them in?
