Diocese of South Carolina being sued after national church changes policy on gays!

If you are a Christian, your right to practice your faith without losing local church property, could be threatened.

The national Episcopal church is suing some South Carolina churches that have had enough of what they see as the diluting of Christianity.

The national Episcopal Church wants to take close to half-a-billion dollars in land, buildings and other property in the state, that was purchased by the Diocese of South Carolina (DSC.) 

The DSC was forced from the national Episcopal Church after the national church breached Scripture and elected an openly gay bishop and endorsed same-sex marriage.

Bishop Mark Lawrence, who heads the DSC, is being hailed as a hero for his defense of the integrity of the Gospel and not acquiescing to pop culture whims.

The DSC is a group of about 50 churches – in southern and eastern South Carolina - that split from the national Episcopal church syndicate in 2012.

The split came after the national church chose what some would call pop-culture theology over what the DSC practices as the Word of God.

The assets the national church covets are property of the DSC's Gospel ministry, according to documents from the DSC. The DSC is what is left of the once Episcopal-affiliated parish, whose members paid for the holdings the national church is now trying to take.
The action by the national church could give enemies of Christianity ammunition in the claim that large denominations care about money and assets, not their faith.  

There are still approximately 20 churches in South Carolina taking the side of the national Episcopal church
