The news comes to us yet again, another topical debate once more. The Church of England has voted out the so-called “Women Bishops”

I guess there is room after all to believe that there are some Bible believing Christians still remaining within the Church of England.

But there are times when I doubt it.

After countless debates and attempts to reason with ministers within the Church of England and the Anglican Church, I never fail to see why the church of England or the Anglican Church so often attempts to modify its beliefs to fit with an ever changing and dying world.

Time and time again I have listened to sermons and ministers attempting to make the Biblical text fit with the idea that women can be bishops, leaders, pastors or whatever an organisation desires to call that ministry, within the body of Christ.

Not content with ‘thinking’ that the theory of evolution and Genesis can actually harmonise in some way with the Bible, many attempt to make feminism fit with the Bible also.

The mind boggles when I sit and listen to people attempting to make the Old Testament fit with Darwinism and New Testament fit with feminism.

Does the Bible not state that Eve was “the mother of all living” Genesis 3: 20

Does the Bible not claim that God made them Adam and Eve?

Was it not Eve who was deceived?

Did Jesus not choose 12 men to be His Apostles?

Is it not written “I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man” 1 Timothy 2: 12

I fail to see why so many so-called Christians attempt to argue their way out of this and more passages in an attempt to make the church fit with the dying world? Correction, I do understand. The evidence suggests that they are little more than Darwinian fairytale believers and liberal feminists who do not believe the Bible or history but favour the sad hopeless opinions and ideas of men over the Truth of God.

I don’t know why they just don’t admit that?

Well, it seems that there may well be a few that actually do? And if they hold fast to the Truth, God will abide with them and even if the world rejects them, and hates them, what of it.

The Gospel cannot be denied for the word of man.
