So speaks Wolfhart Pannenberg

“If a church were to let itself be pushed to the point where it ceased to treat homosexual activity as a departure from the biblical norm, and recognized homosexual unions as a personal partnership of love equivalent to marriage, such a church would stand no longer on biblical ground but against the unequivocal witness of Scripture. A church that took this step would cease to be the one, holy, catholic, and apostolic church.”

Thus does the favorite theologian of one of my most liberal seminary profs unchurch, to all practical purposes, the church body which ordained both of us. And rightly so.
