An Important Message For United Methodist Members

Concerned Methodists have called and e-mailed us regarding their church's stand on issues which have nothing to do with religion or the teachings of Christ.  The link to the advocacy letters is a little hard to get to so you may want to open another window and refer back to this page or print these instructions off.  Before you check out this site, I want you to know that my intentions are to inform you about what some in your denomination are doing in your name.  As a Southern Baptist, I don't always agree with my church, either, and I let it be known when I disagree. 

 

UMC's affiliation with the Nashville Peace and Justice Center, an organization known to have close ties with the Communist Party USA, is most disturbing.  Not only is the UMC a member organization alongside the CPUSA and the Democratic Socialists of America, they own the very building that the NPJC and the CPUSA call home.

 

To get to the advocacy letters, follow this link:  http://www.gbgm-umc.org/tncs/    Once there, click on the 'Advocacy' button at the top.  Then, click on 'UM Power Advocacy Site' which is the third link listed.  Click, then, on the red 'Advocacy Letters' button at the left. 

 

You'll find your church's position on such Godly issues as drilling for oil in Alaska, supporting campaign finance reform, supporting the radical Kyoto Protocol on green house gases/global warming, opposition to President Bush's National Missile Defense, supporting gun control, advocating the release of drug offenders from prison and asking the Washington Redskins to change their name.  Just as my church struggles with forces that want to take it sharply right, your church - the United Methodist Church - has been hijacked by extreme leftists who find nothing wrong with embedding themselves with socialists and communists.  Evil triumphs when good people do nothing.  I urge you to take your church back.
