After British Methodist Church\u2019s approval of same-sex marriage<\/a><\/strong>, The Methodist Church Nigeria has passed a vote of no confidence on the former.<\/p>\n

The decision was taken on Friday and was contained in a statement issued by the Director, Media and Public Relations, Oladapo Daramola of the Nigerian variant of the church.<\/p>\n

According to Daramola, the position of MCN was made known by its Prelate, Chukwumerije Kanu-Uche, in a message shared with members on Friday, NAN reports.<\/p>\n

Kanu-Uche had explained that MCN was cutting formal ties with the British Methodist Church due to the latter\u2019s decision to vote in favour of same-sex marriage at the just-concluded conference.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wish to let you know that I was invited to the British Methodist Conference this year, 2021 but I was duly represented by Rt. Rev. S. R. Nortey.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was part of the Conference and he has given me preliminary information and report.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have requested him to publish and circulate the full report on the SSM to the Conference office and all of us,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He also noted that the current stance of the British Methodist Conference was predicted by John Wesley that, \u201ca time will come when the Methodist Church will exist as a dead sect, having the form of religion and denying the power thereof unless they continue with the spiritual fervency with which they first started.\u201d<\/p>\n

The prelate, therefore, renounced the British Methodist Church as the Mother Church of MCN.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe is only a sister Church. MCN gained autonomy in 1962 and became autocephalous in 1963. So, we can part ways with the British Conference and have nothing to lose.<\/p>\n

\u201cI only pity those romancing with them because of pecuniary interest.<\/p>\n

\u201cSuggestion to write or visit the British Methodist Conference is an insult on Methodist church.\u201d<\/p>\n

He, however, said the Church will wait to receive a detailed report from the accredited delegate to the Conference and take an informed decision at August 2021 consultation.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a remedial measure let every Bishop, and Archbishop tell our members that MCN does not support gay or same-sex marriage,\u2019\u2019 Kanu-Uche said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
