LLF - A Rebel Alliance?
The Bishop of Oxford has responded the Alliance letter to the Archbishops and General Synod (see my previous video ua-cam.com/video/3GOQ1wznDag/v-deo.html) quite strongly to what they said. They have since responded back to him. Watch this video to see what was said!

But 'Who' is standing next to you? Including the leaders of China and Russia. The Lord clealy says this in, 'For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places'. KJV. Man religions, Denominations, churches and ministries. Acts 7:48,49 & 17:24,25. PEOPLE open your eyes of understanding and SAVE YOUR MONEY. John 10:1 & 10:9 & 1 Cor 16:1. I pray God will now act to save you all from what the real sin in this world is... (Not the flesh.) The gates of hell Jesus speaks of are the doorways into man made idols of stone and wood, Gen 11:4, the tower of bable. God is not the God of confusions, the over 30,000 Babling of them.

The Bishop of Oxford is corrupt and no man of God and like so many of his fellow travellers totally pagan, not born of the Spirit of God and overseeing the final collapse of the Church of England. Spurgeon told Ryle to come out of the CofE, Pastor Dan I would urge the same upon you upon.

      The term 'God' is a title, like 'Mister', as is the term 'Christ'. The Name of Jesus is precious, but the World uses His Name, *exclusively,* as a curse, of which I no doubt Starmer and Co use copiously. But Starmer has a Jewish background, and he *knows* what the case regarding the Name of G-d is about - or he ought to. However, Jesus said that He, His Name and G-d the Father can be blasphemed, but can be forgiven if repented of. b But *never* the Holy Spirit. I have rarely, if ever, heard anything about a secular, even atheist, person doing that - but plenty of 'Christians' have denied the Holy Spirit as being 'something else'. With the rise of a false HS rising in the Church Politic, I almost don't blame them, but it's by the fruits produced we can discern and judge, both gifts of the Spirit, by the way. And the C of E seems to be slapping the Holy Spirit around by telling *Him* they think He's wrong! They will find out, sooner than they think...

    This is all nonsense. Not just from a Biblical perspective but from an lgbt perspective. Let me explain. Why the bishop is including the Q is do not know. Queer does not mean lgbt. Most gay people find queer horribly offensive and those like me who suffered homophobic violence hate the word queer and sometimes it is upsetting to hear it because it is the word shouted at me when I was beaten in the street. So why is this bishop retraumatising gay people? Next, queer theory is all about tearing down social norms. That includes between adults and children. It’s all about the kids. From Gayle Rubin to Harper Keenan, the goal is paedophilia. Foucault was a sadist who raped young boys. This is queer. So stop anyone from using queer. Next, same sex relationships are more likely to be violent and sexually violent than opposite sex relationships. As a bisexual woman, I know I am at 61.1% risk of violence, sexual violence, stalking and murder from a woman but only 25% from a man. So I’m sticking with Jesus and sticking with my husband. The rate of violence between same sex couples is said to be 33% but this is under reported because lgbt people do not want to give a bad impression of lgbt people so most stay quiet. Plus services cater for straight people. It is 25% among opposite sex couples. Same sex marriages are more likely than opposite sex marriages to break down, and when opposite sex relationships break down, it is on average after 12 years. With same sex marriages, it is after 4 years. Same sex relationships between women are far more likely to be violent, turbulent and break down than same sex relationships between men, even when rape between two men is more common because men are more likely to put up with stuff than women, and this is shown in opposite sex relationships as women are the spouse most likely to instigate divorce proceedings. Same sex relationships are not good for lgbt people. They are not. I have not got a single gay female friend in a same sex relationship who has not been divorced from another woman. The reason they divorced is the other women cheated. Gay women cheat A LOT. Another woman comes along who seems more exciting so the woman drops her man or woman and goes after this new exciting woman. Plenty of “Christian” women have tried this with me after only just seeing me at a Christian event, not even after having talked to me. They saw me across as room and “fell in love”’with me. It’s gross. These women want me to fix their lives instead of loving their husband and letting Jesus fix their lives. It is disgusting on many levels. Many of them were 20 years my senior. It is disgusting. And this is what the bishop wants to bless. This is what the c of e wants to bless. It will say all sorts of things about love and inclusion. Most straight people have no idea about the reality of lgbt. I would wager no equality laws would have been passed if straight people knew the truth about lgbt. My blog covers all these sorts of issues. My last post was on doctor who but looked at gay hookup culture which is what doctor who promoted this last series. I ask straight people to learn the facts. Same sex relationships are not good at all for lgbt people. There is a reason why God says what He says. catherinehume.wordpress.com

Scripture and canon law are clear, and to ignore them is to be unloving and godless.

    I found the response of the Bishop deeply depressing. I still don't understand how, for example, allowing ministers to be in same-sex marriages, is just a "small and modest change" rather than a clear denial of scripture and contradiction of the church's teaching on marriage and sexuality. I was also grieved by the tone of Bishop Stephen's response, which speaks of respect, but accuses us of schism. Aren't conservatives simply asking for what he and other bishops have said they would provide (proper process, transparency, and provision). I can't quite get my head round his claim that this is a small issue and one that is a concern of a small number of people. I fear that Bishop Stephen will soon discover that this is not the case.

    I feel that all these debates, arguments, letters and meetings concerning LLF are a waste of time. Since the C of E is a state religion, they will be forced to follow government policy come 'hell or high water' even if it means going against Biblical teachings. It is a fait accompli that same sex marriages will go through. IMO, the C of E will follow government policy (which was probably influenced by the UN Human Rights Report : A/HRC/53/37 of 07 June 2023 - Chapter VI).

I went to a charismatic African lead church, which was so overcrowded it was very scary, so tight, you couldn't move. I feared that in a panic there would be a terrible crush.

    In reality of Adamas rather than God's, the bishops are deciding to fill the church with anyone they can stating that they are loved by Jesus. Jesus said those that drink from me. This means be like me. It does not mean Hey guys I know yrying to be what God wants you to be is difficult so Over here, ladies and gentlemen, see our new revised church. Afraid of sin and going to Hell. No worry. Sign up here and say JESUS CHRIST. Your sins are forgiven forever. For people given bishop status they do not seem very well educated in what scripture asks us to do to get out of the curse Adam and Eve created. The problem continues because it is hidden within full sight. Ignored because the church thinks that Jesus ssid I am going to let mankind kill me so that I can negotiate a deal with God my father. In Torah God specifically states that HE has no favourite and accepts no bribes. The soul engages the body from Heaven because the soul is the good part of the knowledge of good and evil. The body is created by the self and is wrongly translated as evil. It is self internal thought without God's input. Your thought. If you want a church of self it already exists. Do you want a church of self dedire or the desire of God. If you just need numbers as in a business, perhaps they are in the wrong profession. It is the head of the church that is changing its rules to suit its needs. Their is love of God and sexual love. One is the collective love within God and one is the desire to perpetuate physical existance by extending ones thought into another through birth. Being born here, is not a design that God originally designed. God allows it under the covenant rules that we do not keep. If we do not follow the rules, we suffer. Not because God hates us but because the instruction Manual has steps that lead us to freedom from our self made trap. Do I believe what God said or a bishop. The Bible is online and can be seen in the proto Hebrew, Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek. The world can pull scripture apart like the animals on the alter of the Tabernacle to see what is inside. Symbolically, this is the meaning. To sacrifice your percieved thought that you seeded, watered and maintained and that which you hrew is then seen and harvested. You live the world you created and agree to maintain from your thought. So what does that say about the church?

Stephen replied saying that the Greek word used is pornea and this could easily be translated "bad sex" which cannot be defined. I replied quoting 1 Cor 6 v 9-11 and asked if he had alternative translations for all these words: "Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And that is what some of you were..." "Were" before they came to repentance. But not continuously, not now. Stephen did not reply. Surely it is our duty to warn a brother who continuously and deliberately sins and refuses to repent of any sin, including sexual immorality, as in Revelation 9:21 and 16:9 and 11?

      In my opinion, any senior cleric who asserts that "πορνεία" in the contexts where it occurs in the New Testament "cannot be defined" is lying.

      Oh, I challenged the previous Bishop in my Diocese for his choice of an archdeacon who had left his apparently loving and accepting wife and family of decades to move in with another man in an active homosexual relationship, and he was on the board of a 'charity' that promoted such relationships in the C of E. Our part of the Diocese are very conservative, who also had 'reservations and concerns', and he soon left. My missives went to the Bishop's lackeys and I got called a Satanist when all I was trying to do is protect my Parish and church. This was pre-Lockdown. The rot runs deep in the C of E hierarchy, and it is the spirit of Jezebel.

      As strange as it may seem these bishops do not know the Bible very well at all. Certainly not like bishops of old. I haven't seen a single cogent argument from Scripture used by any of them to justify any of their actions.

      @@Dave-cf4xq According to his Wikipedia page Croft studied Classics and Theology at Oxford, so I find it hard to excuse what seems to me to be flat-out untrue assertions about the definition of the Greek word referred to here. (I have to be careful; I seem to have had an earlier comment deleted, where I was a little more blunt and used the "L-word". Okay. let's be charitable. Perhaps he was NOT deliberately trying to deceive. Perhaps he was just having a bad day. Perhaps...)

    As somebody outside the C-of-E looking in, I find this whole thing incredibly sad. So this gentleman is what passes for a C-of-E BISHOP these days, eh? From my point-of-view a radical separation from such folks seems absolutely necessary! Indeed, I can't understand how is it even possible that persons of this mindset and ideology could have captured virtually all positions of high authority in your Church without there having been a major schism quite a long time ago! I think there was a sincere attempt by the letter-writers to engage with him, but it seems evident that teachers and defenders of error like this are never going to agree with orthodox Bible-based doctrines any more than a wolf is going to 'agree' with a shepherd! So really I wonder whether dialogue is somewhat a waste of time? There is an undercurrent of ill-disguised hostility to everything he writes. The official C-of-E position which he is embracing and defending seems to me to be wholly disingenuous inasmuch as it claims to have any respect or regard for those who who don't agree. It surely ain't going to end well for anyone accepting leadership from these Bishops? Of course I don't say that schism is an easy thing. But I struggle to see any longterm alternative for orthodox clergy. Sad situation.

    You were wasting your time and energy on Bishop rainbow. I almost lost the will to live listening to the too and throwing. If Jesus were around in body he would be making his whip ready for action. I wouldn't say it was a waste to time talking to him, I'd say it was a total waste of time talking to him. Oxford and his apostate mates have already decided which bus their travelling on. Thank God others have disembarked before it goes over the cliff edge.

    I visit the Church of England every few months. I go to Rayners Lane Baptist Church to have Refresh Cafe on Saturday at 10am to 12 noon. Then on Sunday at 10.30am to 11.30am for worship. The Hymns are from Mission Praise and Songs of Fellowship. I found both Hymns are powerful and effective prayer to see vision of Jesus Christ of Nazareth and the Holy Spirit. Amen Alleluia. Love in Christ from Jesus and Sylvia Nazareth.
