Is the United Methodist Church Guilty of Apostasy?

“It’s not just the UMC’s betrayal of scripture" but it’s the “actual destruction and denial of the Word of God...” Christian apologist Alex McFarland says the UMC’s decision to lift restrictions on same-sex marriage & gay clergy breaks his heart. He explains how former church members who have now joined the Global Methodists, suffered emotional and psychological abuse for remaining faithful to God’s Word.

Yes, they are apostate. They are blaspheming and need to repent for the sake of their souls.

[janetmcbee]

More churches wanted to leave but couldn’t afford to buy their property from the church. We left the Methodist church

“The church does not determine what the Bible teaches. The Bible determines what the church must teach.”

-Charles Spurgeon

It is not a “change in policy.” It is a declaration that to the UMC God’s word is no longer authoritative.

[jesusislord]

Yes, the UMC has become apostates. We should conform to the Word of God, not the culture.

[MyMoney]

Lust of the flesh is not love Jesus taught us … Jesus will tell these people I never knew you . Lord please open their hearts to see you and know you more and repent .

[spndmch]

So sad. They are so lost. They have been on a slippery slope for MANY years. I was raised a Methodist and saw how they twisted God's word (once I actually read the Bible myself) I left. I saw a denomination not showing me where I was wrong. They left me in my pit. Praise God the truth of the word convicted me, and Jesus pulled me out of my pit.

[edgarguillen]

get out of that church for the sake of your soul.

[cece]

Yes, , the UMC is strongly embracing apostacy. They have chosen politics over the Bible. Run from the UMC 2024.

[LeeKobe]

The UMC has been guilty of apostosy for many decades. Consequently, many of their 'churches' are closing their doors. Very sad. "Your Word Lord, is a lamp for my feet, and a light for my path. "

“Avoiding exclusively male language for God…”
I find it most ironic that the progressive woke have decided not to honor God’s preferred pronoun of Heavenly Father.
The UMC has chosen to put other gods before Father God Almighty.

[jackiepersing-hylo]

I left that church …I’ve been in all my life….at 70 I found a church that follows the word of God…thank you Lord

[rueldiaz]

The Gospel written in the Holy Bible cannot be changed. Sin is sin. Penalty is spiritual death and condemnation in hell.

[crosbychang]

The UMC in Australia is dead too. Most of their churches have closed and their buildings sold off to other churches. The few that remain have small congregations that are dying off too. This is what happens when the UMC embraces sin to be "socially relevant".

[robertblair]

It is truly a shame that after all these years, my wife and I have to find another church .

[MYvesAllaire]

And just as they did not see fit to recognize God, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do the things that are not proper,

[peacebewithyou]

Matthew 7:13-14 New International Version (NIV)
“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

[ToliveisChristPhilippians]

What in the world...Praying for the Methodist church! Sin is sin no matter how we look at it & the Bible is clear about this & any sin! 👍☝️ God made Adam & Eve, that is Truth! You shall know the Truth & the Truth shall set you free!

[lynghee]

May God have mercy on those who pervert the Holy Bible 😢

[elizabethcomer]

Has not the Presbyterian Church been similarly apostate? Ordaining homosexuals.
