C of E warning

The CofE is continuing to push for the liberalisation of marriage and sexuality

The Church of England’s liberalisation on the issue of sexuality is set to accelerate, a leading evangelical is warning.

In a message posted online late last week, John Dunnett, of the Church of England Evangelical Council, says: ‘Whilst we do not know what … will be brought to General Synod in July, it is clear that two things are going to happen. One, that the so-called ‘standalone services’ for blessings of same-sex relationships will be made possible.

‘And secondly, that, probably by the removal of “so-called” discipline, that clergy in some dioceses are going to be able to marry their same-sex partners. Maybe as soon as this autumn. These are big changes, and I think it’s fairly clear that they are indeed indicative of a change of doctrine.’
