The name, which has about two million members only
in the United States, announced the change in the text of its constitution
after most of the 171 regional bodies have spoken out in favor
gay marriage.

Now, the chapter that talks about the subject in the constitution of the Church
Presbyterian says the designation recognizes as wedding a
"Only commitment between two people, a man and a traditionally
woman. " Previously, the text restricted this recognition to
"Only commitment between a man and a woman."

According to the data, Portuguese News By Minute, the
text will be formally ratified and enter into force from
next June 21.

Acceptance of gay marriage in American churches has generated
a debate, carried out by those who defend the idea as
way to legalize what already happens in reality, against those who

homosexuality.

The pastor Rob Bell, gay marriage supporter, said recently that is
inevitable that homosexual unions are permitted and recognized
among evangelicals. "Many people [homosexuals] are already there [in
church]. We think it is inevitable and we are moments away from
acceptance of the Church ".

Have Pastor Woody Butler believes that the acceptance of gay marriage
mark the fall of the church: "Very few full Pentecostal churches
the Holy Spirit opened the door to gay marriage, but
unfortunately some have already opened. For me, the names that make
that are taking a step in the fall of the church in the United States. "
