From The Church Times-CHRISTIAN supporters of LGBT inclusion in the Church have been quick to issue a direct and opposing response to a statement released by Conservative Evangelicals this week which affirmed their belief that approval of “homosexual immorality” is sinful.
The Nashville statement was released by the Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood, an Evangelical coalition in the United States, on Tuesday. It lists 14 beliefs, including a rejection of the idea that marriage can be homosexual, polygamous, or polyamorous, or that people can be identified as anything other than male or female according to the reproductive organs with which they were born.
The statement, which has accrued more than 150 signatures, including British clerics, also condemns sexual promiscuity, relations, and desire outside marriage; denies the possibility of redemption for people who identify as homosexual or transgender; and states that approving of “homosexual immorality or transgenderism” constitutes “moral indifference”.
