Pastor Aloysius Bugingo, who is currently estranged from his wife, said the Anglican view that marriage was between one man and one woman, to the exclusion of all others, for life, was not found in the Bible.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Pastor Bugingo has made a declaration that the phrase \u2019till death do us part\u2019 is not biblical, and that it is from Satan! In so doing, the pastor attacks the Roman Catholic, Anglican and Pentecostal Churches, associating them with what he calls a practice from Satan.<\/p>\n<p>I can\u2019t believe that these words are from someone who claims to be a pastor! Nonetheless, I\u2019m not surprised that he is making such a statement after divorcing his wife on grounds of a sickness!<\/p>\n<p>Bugingo claims that he has read the Bible a number of times he is not even able to count! That in itself is an interesting claim, which I wish he were humble enough not to associate himself with. Even if it was true that he has read the Bible countless times, it would be prudent for him to know that it is one thing to read even several times, but another to understand.<\/p>\n<p>He states that no where does the Bible say that the married should not separate. Remember that the Bible is God\u2019s holy, infallible, and innerant word, some versions of which he once set ablaze on an Easter Monday, claiming that they were deceptive!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/anglican.ink\/2020\/01\/22\/church-of-uganda-defends-biblical-standards-defining-marriage\/\">Read it all<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Church of Uganda has issued a statement responding to criticisms issued by a mega-church pastor who charged the church\u2019s stance on marriage was non-biblical.
