On Monday, the United Methodist Church convicted Rev. Frank Schaefer on two counts against the Church for officiating his son’s same-sex wedding, in which he has responded to. Liz Cheney, here’s some advice for you on how to love your relatives for who they are because 3 of Schaefer’s 4 children are gay. You’re welcome Liz!
By Tuesday, the impaneled jury determined his sentence.
Schaefer is suspended for 30 days, and if it at the end of that time he has not renounced his support for marriage equality, he will be defrocked.
Schaefer, however, was unapologetic, refusing the invitation to “repent of your actions”:
SCHAEFER said: [The Church]” needs to stop judging people based on their sexual orientation. We have to stop the hate speech. We have to stop treating them as second-class Christians. [...]
I will never be silent again. This is what I have to do.” [...]
“I have to minister to those who hurt and that’s what I’m doing.
Three of Schaefer’s four children identify as gay.
After his sentence was announced, his supporters began overturning chairs in the courtroom, a reference to the biblical story of Jesus and the moneychangers.”
Schaefer’s critics framed his actions as “breaking the rules” and “rebuking” the Church.
Rev. Frank Schaefer was told he would lose his credentials if he doesn’t follow church law, but in his response, he says he cannot remain silent over his support of the LGBT community. Schaefer explains that he will not refuse ministry to anybody.
“If a gay couple in the next 30 days wants to get married and if they quality, he said he would officiate their wedding.”
