Does ARC take a position on sexuality/homosexuality/same-sex marriage?
Because the ARC Movement recognizes the authority of Holy Scripture on these matters, and because Scripture consistently and universally considers homosexual acts as sinful, we consider such acts, and any relationship in which such acts are practiced, to be outside the will of God for his people. Because we are reformed, catholic Christians, however, we also understand that every man and woman is, by nature, a sinner. Therefore, we welcome all men and women who are sincerely seeking the Lord into the ARC movement without regard to the nature or type of their temptation. ARC upholds and honors the Biblical teaching that marriage is defined and ordained by God to be the union of one man and one woman, and that the only sexual expression blessed by God occurs within the context of marriage. Therefore, we adhere to the God’s call for faithfulness in marriage and chastity in singleness.
