CHURCH OF CHANGE


Bishop Richard Randerson (Letters, February 16) says opposition in the Anglican Church in New Zealand to blessing same-sex marriages “was partly based on a handful of biblical texts, 2000 and more years old”.
In support of the proposal he quotes “the Gospel call for justice and inclusion” (whatever the latter term may mean).

Have he and his fellow bishops and clergy forgotten the Gospel call of Jesus Christ: “I have not come to destroy the law but to fulfil it” (Matthew 5, 17)?
