"In the same-sex marriage debate, Elton John believes he knows where Jesus would've stood.
The musician, who plans to marry his partner David Furnish next year, talked to Sky News on Sunday about how pleased he is with Pope Francis and how he wishes the Church of England would show greater support for his message.
"The new Pope has excited me so much by his humanity," John said. "He's stripped it down to the bare bones and said it's all basically about love and taking everybody in, inclusiveness. And that has to be encouraged by the Church of England."
So when it comes to issues such as vows of celibacy for Catholic priests and gay clergymen being able to marry, John said the church needs to catch up with the times.
"These are old and stupid things, and the church hierarchy might be up in arms about it -- the traditionalists -- but times have changed," John said. "We live in a different time. If Jesus Christ was alive today, I cannot see him, as the Christian person that he was and the great person that he was, saying this could not happen." CNN
Response to sir Elton John-
1) Jesus is alive today (what do u mean "if" Christ was alive today?)
2) The Word of God says the same thing on sexual immorality that it did when it was written (Times may have "changed"...but the Word of God hasn't)
3) As for "inclusiveness" taking everybody in.....will everybody "be in" at the resurrection?...NO
Sorry Sir Elton John---On gay marriage U R Wrong
Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
Hebrews 13:8
