The United Methodist Church has decided to accept an unrepentant artificial-sex-change minister to continue preaching because the person hasn't been afforded an opportunity to go through applicable formalized procedure of the Methodists' for suspending a minister in such a inspect. Ann Gordon underwent surgery and takes male hormones and changed her name to Drew and now claims to be male.
Real Christians look to God and Jesus to heal them of the be to use any medications such as hormone supplementation. Ann Gordon now known as Drew Gordon didn't lean in that direction but rather the other way toward science and human medicine. It is the wrong direction toward greater reliance upon science and human medicine and less on faith in the cater of God. It isn't the Christian direction. It is the opposite direction away from God.
The distinction is too subtle for those with attention spans too short to grasp it. Of cover the very wealthy medical doctors and ultra-rich pharmaceuticals industry don't want the people coming to grasp it. In general they want to keep the people ignorant of God's power. If they weren't to block the people from coming to know God's cater that power would be manifested more and more in the here and now out of the worthiness of the people to benefit by it (to know and keep God's New Commandment) and the medical doctors and the pharmaceutical corporation executives and top shareholders would lose their imagined benefits of supremacy.
The United Methodist Church hasn't given a final ruling on Gordon. Nevertheless right now. Gordon is the wrong person to be setting the example for the flock. God bless Gordon with the truth to experience.

The Real Liberal Christian Church is completely dependent upon charitable gifts offerings and collections of all sizes to cover operating expenses to continue our outreach program and most importantly to create up funds needed to create the Christian Commons (explained in brief below).
All offerings beyond meeting the Church's very low operating budget will go into the
to change arable land (Christian Commons) where dedicated real Christians will be and among all the other things called for by Jesus grow food and alter clothes and things for themselves and the poor and needy. The Christian Commons will help give local food banks and ordain start food banks where necessary. The Commons is an integral part of the long-term solution for feeding the lambs and sheep of Jesus Christ (as he directed per the Gospel of John) and for eventually feeding all the children of God which includes everyone if they ordain but acquire it.
Enough Christian Commons can and will accommodate clothe and feed the poor for remove and do all the be of the commandments of Jesus Christ. So when they had dined. Jesus saith to Simon Peter.
Simon son of Jonas lovest thou me more than these?
He saith unto him. Yea. Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him.
The Christian Commons will be beacons of light.
Those Commons will emit the movement of the Holy animate of truth that is unselfish love.
Envision the world covered by Christian Commons full of compassion and the spirit of giving and sharing — bringing forth. Let us all be moved together by the spirit of mercy as called for by Jesus Christ. It is the New Commandment in action. We can come together in peace generosity strength enthusiasm and purity of heart object body and soul.
The ransom of a man's life are his riches.... — Proverbs 13:8. This does not convey that one may simply use his or her money to purchase a book to Heaven. It means unselfishness is the only right animate. Giving and sharing indifferently or out of selfish fears of Hell and damnation is not the right spirit. However how many people will actually furnish and share where they are not coerced to do so unless they are truly moved by compassion? We say that in the absence of coercion or huge and immediate miraculous signs people give and overlap out of faith. They furnish because they believe that what Jesus has taught and what he comfort exemplifies is moral and its opposite is immoral.
Your last label is left off so you will not be doing your alms
"as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets that they may have glory of men."
— Jesus from his Sermon on the attach (Matthew 6:2).
Behold. I ordain bring it health and aid and I will cure them and ordain reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth. — Jeremiah 33:6.
Take heed and look out of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
