What is the point of a priest if he doesn't believe the Bible?

In my in-law's home county, there has come a big debate about the conservative nature of the priests in the Swedish Lutheran church there.

None of the priests wanted to marry a gay couple, so they had to call in someone from the big city to do the job.

They don't have any female priests in the area either, what a scandal!

They also are not so receptive to the homosexual christian club that is pushed on them...

My take on the whole issue:

Women should not be teachers in the church

and

Homosexuality is sinful

are two issues that are clear as day in the Bible.

So I am glad that the liberal Swedish Lutheran church dares to go against "cultural norms" for the sake of standing for what the Bible says.

Systematic Theology, Chapter 39

*Just a reminder that this study of Wayne Grudem's book, Systematic Theology, is not by any means me teaching, but rather a simple sum...
