    Rev William Love http://newark.rutgers.edu/~lcrew/bishops/0508.html , was installed sunday as bishop of Albany's Episcopal Diocese.

    He used the occasion to stress the importance of evangelism.

    Love, 48 already has spoken out on one fo the most divisive issues:
    - Homosexuality -. Love said he would not authorize same sex marriage or bless civil unions, and he would not knowingliy permit an unmarried, sexually active person, whether he was homsexual or straight; to be ordained.

    I am glad for his stand, but should he come out and be ye seperate?

    Luther tried to reform the RCC "from within". His intent was not to "start a new religion"

    The disciples went FIRST to the house of Israel - it was not their intent to declare their own religion to be "Wrong" and start a new one.

    In Acts 21 Paul argues that he never told the Jews that their religion was wrong - as it was defined in scripture.

    Most often those kind of legitimate breaks occur when the established leadership of a fallen religion boot out anyone trying to set the group back on a Bible based track.

    But my argument in this SPECIFIC example is that the entire denomination had to FIRST abandon the truth of Christ the Creator's Seventh-day Holy day given as a memorial for His LITERAL creative act - to THEN embrace EVOLUTIONISM.

    And THEY had to embrace EVOLUTIONISM before they could embrace the Gay agenda.

    As far as I know there is no example of ANY church going to the extremes of the Episcopal denomination without FIRST embracing Evolutionism's doctrines and no Christian group has taken that evolution-embracing stand without FIRST denying the truth of the Creation-Sabbath commandment of Christ.

    It therefore is a predictible sequence in downward spiral that can not be reversed by one man arguing against the "latest logical step" in a SERIES of steps that are only logical if you are willing to take the first two erroneous steps.

    In Christ,

    Bob
