African Anglican Churches Rebuke Church of England’s Heresy on Same-Sex Unions

Ruth Institute President Dr. Jennifer Morse, Ph.D. congratulated the Anglican Churches of Africa for opposing the Church of England on its same-sex heresy.

“At its recent synod, the Church of England wanted to have it both ways,” Morse said. “It decided to allow its priests to bless same-sex couples while claiming to maintain its historic ban on gay marriage. What a sad subterfuge. This is merely a matter of semantics which will fool no one.”

The Global South Fellowship of Anglican Churches – which represents churches in 24 countries and provinces, including Nigeria, Kenya, Uganda and Rwanda – issued a stinging rebuke to the Church of England and questioned the fitness of Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury, to continue heading the Church internationally.

Stephen Kaziimba, Archbishop of Uganda, declared: “God cannot bless what he calls sin. The Church of England has departed from the Anglican faith and are now false teachers.”

Morse agreed: “Once upon a time, missionaries from the West came to Africa to convert the local population to Christianity. Now, it’s African churches working to bring Christianity back to the West.”

The Global South Fellowship called the Church of England’s blessing ceremony for gay couples “a rejection of the doctrine that marriage is the lifelong union of a man and a woman.”

In 2019, Morse spoke at the National Youth Conference of the Ugandan Catholic Church warning delegates to resist the new sexual ideology.

“The old economic colonialism attempted to dominate the physical resources of the African continent,” Morse said. “The new ideological imperialism attempts to dominate the soul of Africa.”

“The courageous stand of the Global South Fellowship shows that African churches are in no danger of falling for the siren song of the Sexual Revolution,” Morse stated. “Quite the opposite, they are working to reconvert Western churches.”

“Thank God for their fortitude and vision.”
