The Episcopal tragedy - The secular progressive movement strengthens...Christianity & morality regroup.

Here are the first and last paragraphs of a column posted yesterday on Virtue Online by F. Earle Fox:
I am an Episcopal priest who has labored in that vineyard for over forty years, now watching the Church I loved and cherished self-destruct. There will be a resurrection of sorts, that is a division with one side conforming, more or less, to orthodoxy.

But there are few signs that the orthodox in the West have learned the lessons which God meant us to learn over the last four centuries (see below). Unless there is new leadership with intellectual, moral, and spiritual credibility raised up, the division will not make much difference to the Christian Church -- which has been in the backwaters of civilization for most of the last two centuries. ...

... The issues are bigger than the Episcopal disaster, which is just a forerunner. America shows all the signs of going the Episcopal way -- down the sink hole of relativism and pseudo-pluralism, ending in totalitarianism. They are the issues of Western Civilization, and becoming the issues of world culture (thanks to the globalists and their tool, the UN).

There is no hope for civilization outside the Church of God. Only a people rooted in the Hand of God and obedient to His Voice will be able to turn the momentum of self-destruction back toward rational, sane, and truly compassionate culture and spirituality.

Christians did it before, and, under the law and grace of God, we will do it again.
Read it all... here.

This issue hits close to home, as I am a member of the Episcopal Church. I know that many like me are struggling with the recent decisions of the church leaders. It's very disheartening, to say the least.
