Christian Clergy
|
We are Christian Clergy raising a voice against Christian intolerance that promotes condemnation, discrimination, and hatred; and advocating justice for all, especially Gays, Lesbians, Bisexuals, and Transgendered persons.
We believe that homosexual persons are people of wholeness and worth, entitled to a complete and full life. We are convinced that the Bible makes clear God's unconditional love and acceptance of all people. We therefore welcome homosexual persons, as we welcome all people, into our Christian communities and organizations.
