"We at the Kirk are holding to what Scripture clearly teaches. The PCUSA has left this critical foundation. We, therefore, no longer recognize the authority of the PCUSA over any congregation that chooses to hold to the traditional authority of Scripture, as once held by the PCUSA."Those words are from Rev. Thomas W. Gray (co-pastor with Roger Wayne Hardy) of Kirk of the Hills Presbyterian Church in Tulsa, explaining why the 2,700 member church decided to leave the ever-more liberal Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).
Kirk of the Hills is now the largest congregation so far to leave.
This is, of course, terrible news for the old but increasingly irrelevant PCUSA. And the disparity of the vote to bolt (over 96%!) is even worse. Yet so far, the leadership of the denomination refuses to even consider a return to biblical orthodoxy. They prefer doctrines of sexual perversion, abortion and heresy. Talk about a death wish.
What a sad, ugly end of what historically was a great Christian denomination.

Here's the full story from the Christian Post.
