I would like to offer a comment on this saddening headline...
"Lutherans to allow sexually active gays as clergy."
Before we wonder what is going wrong with the "church" let us remember that the true Church is not an organization, a building, a bunch of people who call themselves something or other. It is the group of folks in whose hearts Jesus lives. Not those who claim to be following Christ, but the ones who are actually out on the road with Him, sitting in communion with Him, putting Him above all things in their lives.
As the mainstream denominations move slowly downward a few paces back from society, we should strive to move even closer to Jesus. Again, the sheep are never so safe as when they are close to the shepherd.
“You can enter God’s Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose the easy way. But the gateway to life is small, and the road is narrow, and only a few ever find it."
-Matthew 7:13-14
