World Vision’s Sad Decision…

Tuesday, March 25, 2014 by Pat Dirrim Leave a Comment

Yesterday World Vision’s American branch announced that it will no longer require its more than 1,100 employees to restrict their sexual activity to marriage between one man and one woman.  This act was taken, they say, not as a symbol of ‘compromise,’ but as one of ‘unity’ among the church.  Unfortunately, this runs completely counter to what God’s word says.  In response to this sad situation, many thoughtful and insightful pastors and theologians have weighed in on.  Many of these posts are quite helpful in assisting us in how we should think about this situation and how we should respond to it.

John Piper gives us much to think about in regards to the gravity of this situation.

Ray Ortlund helps us understand what marriage is according to the Bible.

Justin Taylor helps us think through whether we should continue supporting World Vision.

Russell Moore shows us two different but equally insidious ways that Satan works in bringing about false doctrine.

Pray that World Vision would repent of its wrong decision and return to their former biblically faithful position on issues of sexuality.
