Korean Methodists debate severing ties with UMC over same-sex marriage and gay clergy stance.

Korean Methodists are debating whether to sever ties with the United Methodist Church (UMC) after the UMC allowed same-sex marriage and gay clergy. Some Korean-American Methodist pastors within the Korean Christian Holiness Movement advocate for this stance, arguing that homosexuality is a sin and cannot be accepted until the Lord returns. This has led to divergent reactions among Korean Methodists.
