Studies On The Bible And Same-Sex Relationships Since 2003 (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The 2013 Report of the House of Bishops Working Group on Human Sexuality (the Pilling Report) declared that 'In the face of conflicting scholarship, as well as conflicting beliefs, we believe that the Church should be cautious about attempting to pronounce definitively on the implications of Scripture for homosexual people.' However, the report never undertook an analysis of the conflicting scholarship to which it refers.

This report, produced on behalf of the Church of England Evangelical Council, undertakes such an analysis. It provides a detailed survey of studies on the Bible and same-sex relationships that have been produced since 2003 by both revisionist and traditionalist scholars. It then undertakes an evaluation of these studies and explains why, in the light of them, the Church of England can still have confidence in upholding its traditional approach to issues of human sexuality. This report provides an invaluable resource for anyone who wants to think more deeply about the Bible and same-sex relationships.
