Patriarch Declares Anathema on the Anglican Church of Southern Africa
Patriarch Declares Anathema on the Anglican Church of Southern Africa

To Representatives and Believers of the Anglican Church of Southern Africa
DECLARATION: God's anathema upon the Anglican Church of Southern Africa
In August 2009, the Anglican Diocese of Cape Town passed a resolution asking the church's bishops to provide pastoral guidelines for gay parishioners living in "covenanted partnerships".
Your Church allows gay pastors and grants a blessing to two homosexuals and two lesbians living in a perverse same-sex union. In February 2011, an Anglican South African priest, Clifford Felix, was fired from his post for questioning the ordination of homosexual priests. South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu openly approved of election of Gene Robinson, who is openly gay, as bishop.
After a storm of protest, he said the Anglican Church had seemed "extraordinarily homophobic" and that he had felt "saddened" and "ashamed" of that attitude. The height of his apostasy was his statement: "If God, as they say, is homophobic, I wouldn't worship that God." His blasphemous way of expression is supreme demagogy. God hates sin but loves the sinner, and therefore He delivered up His only Son to death on the cross. It is the will of God that all people be saved.
