Mike.

Welcome. Just so that you know there are Liberal Christians on board who are heterosexuals and affirm that there is nothing sinful or wrong for being homosexuals. Also, the term homosexual and Christian is not mutually exclusive because there are gay/lesbian Christians.

In short, let me borrow the declartion of belief by Inclusive Church.

A Declaration of Belief


We affirm that the Church's mission, in obedience to Holy Scripture, is to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ in every generation. We acknowledge that this is Good News for people regardless of their sex, race or sexual orientation. We believe that, in order to strengthen the Gospel's proclamation of justice to the world, and for the greater glory of God, the Church's own common life must be justly ordered. To that end, we call on our Church to live out the promise of the Gospel; to celebrate the diverse gifts of all members of the body of Christ; and in the ordering of our common life to open the ministries of deacon, priest and bishop to those so called to serve by God, regardless of their sex, race or sexual orientation.

Welcome on board brother.
