Don't Hold On- Love Challenge Week 4





My last week of the Love challenge has taught me one important lesson. Don't hold ON. Love is meant to be given. It not meant to just be harbored for some special time. I think the most significant thing I learned in these 28 days was that whether the gesture was small, big, with money, with service, or with words, LOVE was received. When we let the love within us touch others, we open our capacity to receive up in ways that we could not expect. During these 28 days, there weren't any fireworks or walk on water miracles, but there did not need to be. Love is a miracle in itself. It's power, often unseen and quiet, works an internal miracle every time you decide to release it.

Love wears down the hardest heart. Love enlarges the heart that's full of love. Love warms the heart that is cold. Even the Roman soldiers who mocked love while it was poured out, had to acknowledge that love had changed the atmosphere and truly Jesus was The Son of God.

I know for me, I am going to be more intentional about love and look out for ways to show it. I pray you will take a month to be intentional about love in action. it will change you in ways you did not think possible. The worldwide movement starts first in the heart of an individual. Will it be you?

Love like your life depends on it. The reality is, it does.

Homosexuality: It's Bigger Than SEX



It has taken me over six months of research, study, and prayer to finally come to terms with writing this article. I didn’t want to write it. I wanted to read it. I wanted someone else to dig into this issue. Quite frankly, there are more ‘qualified’ people to address it. Nevertheless, I will share what God has given me on the subject along with other source citations. 

He first thing God spoke to me concerning this was: The next war coming will not be over race, but over sexuality. 

When God first spoke this to me years ago, I could not see it. Now, it is evident and clear that our society is waging a spiritual, cultural, civil, and sexual war around this area. From business owners under attack, to laws protecting religious freedom being considered unconstitutional, to the firing and then reinstating of Duck Dynasty cast member for his solicited answers to the question of homosexuality, there is definitely a need to wake up and understand what is going on and why.

The other thing God said was: This issue is not going to ‘go away’. It will grow in size and importance.  

With the measures taken by President Obama to make homosexuality a world human rights issue with the United Nations, it further proves that God is always true. He knows what is unfolding in human history and it is our responsibility to take heed and set ourselves strategically in the place of fasting, prayer, worship, acting in our society in a way that positions us not to be bulldozed by the coming enforcement of apostasy upon the world.  

No matter what happens after I write this article (which will be preserved in several forms in the case of something good or bad occurring), my assignment to record and obey God in the communication of it will have been fulfilled.

In order to understand where we are headed we must understand how homosexuality has been viewed in the world in times past. The Word of God assures us there is nothing new under the sun, and so we must examine what has been in previous ages and see how these patterns are recurring and unfolding in our present age. 

The term homosexuality was invented in the 19th century, with the term heterosexuality invented later in the same century to contrast with the earlier term. The term bisexuality was invented in the 20th century as sexual identities became defined by the predominate sex to which people are attracted and thus a label was needed for those who are not predominantly attracted to one sex.

In a 1976 study, Gwen Broude and Sarah Greene compared attitudes towards and frequency of homosexuality in the ethnographic studies available in the Standard cross-cultural sample. They found that out of 42 communities: homosexuality was accepted or ignored in 9; 5 communities had no concept of homosexuality; 11 considered it undesirable but did not set punishments; and 17 strongly disapproved and punished. Of 70 communities, homosexuality was reported to be absent or rare in frequency in 41, and present or not uncommon in 29. From the work, "Cross-Cultural Codes on Twenty Sexual Attitudes and Practices", Ethnology, Vol. 15, No. 4 (Oct., 1976)

Biblical standards and religions that flow from Abrahamic origin establish sodomy as a transgression against divine law. The condemnation of anal sex between males predates Christianity. 

Let's take a look at Homosexuality in ages past:

Among indigenous peoples of the Americas prior to European colonization, a common form of same-sex sexuality centered around the figure of the Two-Spirit individual. Typically this individual was recognized early in life, given a choice by the parents to follow the path and, if the child accepted the role, raised in the appropriate manner, learning the customs of the gender it had chosen. Two-Spirit individuals were commonly shamans, and were revered as having powers beyond those of ordinary shamans. Their sexual life was with the ordinary tribe members of the same sex, according to Ben Pablo’s work Latin America: Colonial.

Homosexuality in China, known as the pleasures of the bitten peach, the cut sleeve, or the southern custom, has been recorded since approximately 600 BCE. These  terms were used to describe behaviors, not identities (recently some fashionable young Chinese use the term "brokeback," 斷背 duanbei to refer to homosexual men, from the success of director Ang Lee's film Brokeback Mountain). The relationships were marked by differences in age and social position.

Homosexuality in Japan, variously known as shudo or nanshoku, has been documented for over one thousand years and had some connections to the Buddhist monastic life and the samurai tradition. This same-sex love culture gave rise to strong traditions of painting and literature documenting and celebrating such relationships.

Similarly, in Thailand, Kathoey, or "ladyboys," have been a feature of Thai society for many centuries, and Thai kings had male as well as female lovers. 

The earliest Western documents of same-sex come from Ancient Greece. Same-sex relationships were a social institution variously constructed over time and from one city to another. The formal practice, an erotic yet often restrained relationship between a free adult male and a free adolescent, was valued for its pedagogic benefits and as a means of population control. 

In Ancient Rome the young male body remained a focus of male sexual attention, but relationships were between older free men and slaves or freed youths who took the receptive role in sex. All the emperors with the exception of Claudius took male lovers. The Hellenophile emperor Hadrian is renowned for his relationship with Antinous, but the Christian emperor Theodosius I decreed a law on August 6, 390, condemning passive males to be burned at the stake. Justinian, towards the end of his reign, expanded the proscription to the active partner as well (in 558), warning that such conduct can lead to the destruction of cities through the "wrath of God". Notwithstanding these regulations, taxes on brothels of boys available for homosexual sex continued to be collected until the end of the reign of Anastasius I in 518.

In the Middle East the practice is veiled and not publicly accepted. In recent years, egalitarian relationships modeled on the western pattern have become more frequent, though they remain rare. Same-sex intercourse officially carries the death penalty in several Muslim nations: Saudi Arabia, Iran, Mauritania, northern Nigeria, Sudan, and Yemen. Today, governments in the Middle East often ignore, deny the existence of, or criminalize homosexuality.

In Ancient Assyria homosexuality was tied to ancient religions and practiced as a part of religious ritual. In Persia homosexuality and homoerotic expressions were tolerated in numerous public places, from monasteries and seminaries to taverns, military camps, bathhouses, and coffee houses. In the early Safavid era (1501–1723), male houses of prostitution (amrad khane) were legally recognized and paid taxes.

In many traditional Melanesian cultures a prepubescent boy would be paired with an older adolescent who would become his mentor and who would "inseminate" him (orally, anally, or topically, depending on the tribe) over a number of years in order for the younger to also reach puberty. Many Melanesian societies, however, have become hostile towards same-sex relationships since the introduction of Christianity by European missionaries, according to Glibert Herdt’s book, Ritualized Homosexuality in Melanesia.

This leads me to one very important reason why HOMOSEXUALITY is not going anywhere: our society functions around institutionalizing homosexuality, and many secret and Greek organizations have ritualized it.

When the Lord told me to do a study on the word “semen” it helped me to connect what homosexuality meant beyond sex. Semen represents the WORD. Some cultures actually believe that Semen contains not just “DNA” but the very wisdom of the man. In ritual practice, they believe that the way a man imparts his ‘wisdom’ to another man is through the anal sex act, proven by Mr. Herdt’s work. It is where the term Seminary comes from, a place of learning, initially for men only, and the term “inseminate”.

Let’s continue to take a look at the ancient Greece practice: One ancient saying claimed that "Women are for business, boys are for pleasure." Though slave boys could be bought, free boys had to be courted, and ancient materials suggest that the father also had to consent to the relationship. Such relationships did not replace marriage between man and woman, but occurred before and concurrent WITH it. A mature man would usually not have a mature male mate, though there were frequent exceptions (among whom Alexander the Great) but he would be the erastes (lover) to a young eromenos (loved one). Men could seek boys as partners, according to Eva Canterella’s book, Bisexuality in the Ancient World.

 In Ancient Rome, the "conquest mentality" of the ancient Romans shaped Roman homosexual practices. In the Roman Republic, a citizen's political liberty was defined in part by the RIGHT to preserve his body from physical compulsion or use by others; for the male citizen to submit his body to the giving of pleasure was considered servile. As long as a man played the penetrative role, it was socially acceptable and considered natural for him to have same-sex relations, without a perceived LOSS of his masculinity or social standing.

Sex between male citizens of equal status, including soldiers, was disparaged, and in some circumstances penalized harshly. The bodies of citizen youths were strictly off-limits. Male slaves, prostitutes, and entertainers or others considered infames (of no social standing) were acceptable sex partners for the DOMINANT male citizen to penetrate, according to Thomas Mc Ginn’s book, Prostitution, Sexuality, and the Law in Ancient Rome. 

Homosexuality was deemed to be a psychiatric disorder for many years but in 1973 homosexuality was declassified as a mental illness in the United Kingdom. In 1986 all references to homosexuality as a psychiatric DISORDER were removed from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) of the American Psychiatric Association.


WHY? Why would they remove this classification?
Because there are MANY involved in it; there are many involved in it behind closed doors and it would not be good to be declared a mental patient. Instead, what is happening, it that those who are in the highest realms of world power and law making are securing a place for homosexuality and other deviant practices to make a public comeback, and not just as acceptable or tolerable. It has become a “YOU will APPROVE or ELSE” campaign. 

So, what started this drive to the forefront of culture and now the storming of the Church institutions?

Remember:  The ancient Law of Moses (the Torah) forbids men lying with men (intercourse) in Leviticus 18 and gives a story of attempted homosexual rape in Genesis in the story of Sodom and Gomorrah, the cities being soon destroyed after that. The death penalty was prescribed. In Deuteronomy 22:5, cross-dressing is condemned as being "abominable".



The catalyst for this Western cultural clash came with the Stonewall Riots. Amazingly, violence seems to be the spirit behind homosexuality as evidenced even Biblically through Sodom and Gomorrah. 

The Stonewall riots were a series of spontaneous, violent demonstrations by members of the gay community against a police raid that took place in the early morning hours of June 28, 1969, at the Stonewall Inn, in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of New York City. They are widely considered to constitute the SINGLE most important event leading to the gay liberation movement and the modern fight for gay and lesbian rights in the United States, even referenced in Obama’s 2013 Inaugural Speech.

Very few establishments welcomed openly gay people in the 1950s and 1960s. Those that did were often bars, although bar owners and managers were rarely gay. The Stonewall Inn, at the time, was owned by the Mafia. It catered to an assortment of patrons, but it was known to be popular with the poorest and most marginalized people in the gay community: drag queens, representatives of a newly self-aware transgender community, effeminate young men, male prostitutes, and homeless youth. Police raids on gay bars were routine in the 1960s, but officers quickly lost control of the situation at the Stonewall Inn, and attracted a crowd that was incited to riot.

Tensions between New York City police and gay residents of Greenwich Village erupted into more protests the next evening, and again several nights later. Within weeks, Village residents quickly organized into activist groups to concentrate efforts on establishing places for gays and lesbians to be open about their sexual orientation without fear of being arrested.

After the Stonewall riots, gays and lesbians in New York City faced gender, race, class, and generational obstacles to becoming a cohesive community. Within six months, two gay activist organizations were formed in New York, concentrating on confrontational tactics, and three newspapers were established to promote rights for gays and lesbians. Within a few years, gay rights organizations were founded across the U.S. and the world. On June 28, 1970, the first Gay Pride marches took place in Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York commemorating the anniversary of the riots. Similar marches were organized in other cities. Today, Gay Pride events are held annually throughout the world toward the end of June to mark the Stonewall riots.

So, what happened? They organized. They created their own sources of media. They founded organizations that would give them voice. They took to the streets. And now, June which marks FATHER’S DAY has now been overthrown in the US by President Obama’s declaration of June as LGBT MONTH. That’s right. President Obama has been dubbed, “The Gay President” by TIME Magazine and has proven to be the most pro-homosexual President in the history of our Nation. Most recently, he has chastised Nigeria and Uganda on their anti-homosexual laws recently passed. 

Let me note here, that comparing the PEACEFUL, NON-VIOLENT move of the African-American Civil Rights movement with this RIOT should be an affront to those of the Civil Rights Community. Let me reiterate: Gay Pride Celebrations mark an ACT OF REBELLION and RIOTING against established LAW ENFORCEMENT. 

In order to force a society to change, you must change its laws. Martin Luther King understood this when he said, “You cannot legislate morality, but you can create a law to keep a man from lynching me, and I think that is pretty important.” Just as there have been laws that protect the innocent, there have also been laws that EMPOWER the lawless, the ungodly, and the perverse. 

In 2011, the United Nations Human Rights Council passed its first resolution recognizing LGBT rights, which was followed up with a report from the UN Human Rights Commission documenting violations of the rights of LGBT people, including hate crime, criminalization of homosexuality, and discrimination. Following up on the report, the UN Human Rights Commission urged all countries which had not yet done so to enact laws protecting basic LGBT rights.

So many other humanitarian RIGHTS are put on the backburner: the right to life, sex slavery, the right to basic needs: yet LGBT all of a sudden gets front and center attention with the help of our President, who personally went on tour to promote the rights of LGBT in African Nations, one of which, Kenya, flat out refused his suggestions.

So what do we see?
We see our society organizing around and institutionalizing homosexuality, and many secret and Greek organizations have ritualized it. 

One such institution is the OTO, The Ordo Templi Orientis, founded by Aleister Crowley, a role model of Jay Z, by the way. In the eleventh degree of this co-ed fraternity, Anal Intercourse is seen as a way to ‘move up’ the ranks.  The structure of the Ordo Templi Orientis (O.T.O.), like that of Freemasonry, is based on a staged series of initiations or degrees. The essence of the Order is in its higher degrees; strictly speaking only members of these degrees are considered to be members of the O.T.O. proper. 

The title of this eleventh degree? Baphomet; a term becoming increasingly popular in the music world.
According to Crowley’s writings, he does not advise talking about the law of Thelema in public because trying to get it recognized as religion, sanctioned by the government, and approved by the public would be very hard to do, because it is seen as sin to normal society (DUH!). This man was an occultist, ceremonial magician and founder of the religion and philosophy of Thelema, which he says he received through the Egyptian God Horus visiting him. He was contacted by an entity named Aiwass, who provided him his satanic text, called The Book of the Law, the sum of which is now printed on t-shirts and hoodies sported by Jay Z: “do what thou wilt”. Well, we KNOW that goes contrary to the BIBLE. If you are a Christian, you do the WILL of GOD, not your own will.

So how did they get the public to approve? They began masking their agenda, normalizing it through media and television and tying it to the Civil Rights Movement. 

Instead, what has happened is those secret practitioners are now banded together to create laws that allow them to practice openly what was once secret. They have used media puppets and celebrities to normalize and desensitize. Anyone involved in the occult present or former, know what Sex Magick is. But no one used this term openly until the singer Justin Timberlake began using it and talking about “bringing sexy back”. 

These people operate in practices that are just stomach turning and don’t need to be mentioned here for you to get the picture. Where was the word Aiwass released? In James Cameron’s 2009 movie, Avatar, the highest grossing film ever and also a Hindu religious concept. (Avatar actually means descent of god in human forms- or an ‘I am god’ concept). Spelled Eywa, in the script, and described as a nature mother goddess, it is still the SAME spirit. Now, it has been released in media, given pretty blue skin, and all who hear it are sympathetic to Avatar 2, 3, and 4, set to be releaed 2016 and beyond. Interesting to note, is that Cameron is on the NASA Council and has supported the Mars society, an organization lobbying to colonize Mars. That’s right. Mars. Because the sin on Earth just isn’t enough.  

THAT is the power of media, to transmit something SATANICALLY inspired, breathe life into it, and get you attached and involved with something you had NO CLUE had origins in Aleister Crowley’s disturbed mind. Box office income to date? $2, 782, 275, 172. If you don’t think Mammon was involved, think again. 

Make no mistake, homosexuality is bigger than sex. Homosexuality is about power. It is about gaining power over another. It is about trying to tap into some ‘mystical’ state or place. It is about opening realms and gateways into satanic activity and demonic communication. It is not about RIGHTS.

Those who practice homosexuality are looking for headway into making this practice acceptable along all spheres. What or rather WHO stands in the way?
Jesus Christ and those darn CHRISTIANS.
It has been said, Christians are hateful, backwards in their thinking, and are simply ‘misinterpreting’ what the Bible teaches. 

The only problem with that is that Christians don’t decide what is right and wrong. God does. And it does not matter how long a practice has been in existence. If God has laid down divine law on it, then Christians follow divine law. Divine law flows out of God, not out of our hearts which can be wicked and desire what is against God. This is another reason why they hate God and refuse to acknowledge him as God (Romans1:19-26). If there is no GOD, there is no divine lawgiver, and therefore no moral law. By ‘banishing’ God, I deceive myself into thinking I can ‘do what thou wilt’. Do you see where that takes you?

So what’s the problem? The problem is that the Church has been infiltrated with people who are promoting the homosexual agenda and practicing homosexuality themselves.   

Check out this powerful statement:

One homosexual group called Evangelicals Concerned is a group of people who are to all appearances born-again, Bible-believing Christians, but also practicing homosexuals. They claim that the Bible doesn’t forbid homosexual activity or that its commands aren’t valid for today, but were just a reflection of the culture in which it was written. These people can be orthodox about Jesus and every other area of teaching; but they just think it’s all right to be a practicing homosexual. Understand this:
(1) We are all obligated to do God’s will.
(2) God’s will is expressed in the Bible.
(3) The Bible forbids homosexual behavior.
(4) Therefore, homosexual behavior is against God’s will, or is wrong.
Now if someone is going to resist this reasoning, he’s got to deny either that (2) God’s will is expressed in the Bible or else that (3) the Bible forbids homosexual behavior.  Now this has enormous implications. For one thing, it means that the whole debate about whether homosexuality is something you were born with or is a result of how you were raised really doesn’t matter in the end. The important thing is not how you got your orientation, but what you do with it. Some defenders of homosexuality are very anxious to prove that your genes, not your upbringing, determine if you’re homosexual because then homosexual behavior is normal and right. But this conclusion doesn’t follow at all. Just because you’re genetically disposed to some behavior doesn’t mean that behavior is morally right (www.reasonablefaith.org/a-christian-perspective-on-homosexuality).

From Catholic priests to Pentecostal Bishops, this practice is going on. And as stated before, those who practice in secret are remaining silent or they are privately encouraging this siege of religious institutions. This is also why in certain religious sects there is a strong push for all male leadership. Remember as we discussed earlier, this practice was accepted in ancient cultures and life. 

The article from reasonable faith continues with these very valid points:

There are six places in the Bible—three in the Old Testament and three in the New Testament—where this issue is directly addressed—not to mention all the passages dealing with marriage and sexuality which have implications for this issue. In all six of these passages homosexual acts are unequivocally condemned.

In Leviticus 18.22 it says that it is an abomination for a man to lie with another man as with a woman. In Lev. 20.13 the death penalty is prescribed in Israel for such an act, along with adultery, incest, and bestiality. Now sometimes homosexual advocates make light of these prohibitions by comparing them to prohibitions in the Old Testament against having contact with unclean animals like pigs. Just as Christians today don’t obey all of the Old Testament ceremonial laws, so, they say, we don’t have to obey the prohibitions of homosexual actions. But the problem with this argument is that the New Testament reaffirms the validity of the Old Testament prohibitions of homosexual behavior, as we’ll see below. This shows they were not just part of the ceremonial laws of the Old Testament, which were done away with, but were part of God’s everlasting moral law. Homosexual behavior is in God’s sight a serious sin. The third place where homosexual acts are mentioned in the Old Testament is the horrifying story in Genesis 19 of the attempted gang rape of Lot’s visitors by the men of Sodom, from which our word sodomy derives. God destroyed the city of Sodom because of their wickedness.

Now if this weren’t enough, the New Testament also forbids homosexual behavior. In I Cor. 6.9-10 Paul writes, “Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the Kingdom of God.” The words in the list translated “men who practice homosexuality” refer in Greek literature to the passive and the active partners in male homosexual intercourse. The second of these two words is also listed in I Tim. 1.10 along with fornicators, slave traders, liars, and murderers as “contrary to the sound teaching of the Gospel.” The most lengthy treatment of homosexual activity comes in Romans 1.24-28. Here Paul talks about how people have turned away from the Creator God and begun to worship instead false gods of their own making. He says,

Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.
For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.

Liberal scholars have done acrobatics to try to explain away the clear sense of these verses. Some have said that Paul is only condemning the pagan practice of men’s sexually exploiting young boys. But such an interpretation is obviously wrong, since Paul says in verses 24 and 27 that these homosexual acts by men were committed “with one another” and in verse 26 he speaks of lesbian homosexual acts as well. Other scholars have said Paul is only condemning heterosexuals who engage in homosexual acts, not homosexuals who do. But this interpretation is contrived. It was only in modern times that the idea of homosexual or heterosexual orientation developed. What Paul is condemning is homosexual acts, regardless of orientation. Given the Old Testament background to this passage as well as what Paul says in I Cor. 6.9-10 and I Tim. 1.10, it is clear that Paul is here forbidding all such acts. He sees this behavior as the evidence of a corrupted mind which has turned away from God and been abandoned by Him to moral degeneracy.

So the Bible is very forthright and clear when it comes to homosexual behavior. It is contrary to God’s design and is sin. Even if there weren’t all these explicit passages dealing with homosexual acts, such acts would still be forbidden under the commandment “You shall not commit adultery.” God’s plan for human sexual activity is that it is reserved for marriage: any sexual activity outside of the security of the marriage bond—whether pre-marital sex or extra-marital sex, whether heterosexual or homosexual—is forbidden. Sex is designed by God for marriage.

Someone might say that if God intended sex for marriage, then just let homosexuals marry each other and they would not be committing adultery! But this suggestion completely misunderstands God’s intention for marriage. In the creation story in Genesis, it tells of how God made woman as a suitable mate for man, his perfect, God-given complement. Then it says, “For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother and shall cleave to his wife and they shall become one flesh.” This is God’s pattern for marriage, and in the New Testament Paul quotes this very passage and then says, “This is a great mystery and I am applying it to Christ and the church” (Eph. 5.32). Paul says that the union between a man and his wife is a living symbol of the unity of Christ with his people, the Church. When we think about this, we can see what a terrible sacrilege, what a mockery of God’s plan, a homosexual union is. It flies in the face of God’s intention for humanity from the moment of creation.

The above also shows how silly it is when some homosexual advocates say, “Jesus never condemned homosexual behavior, so why should we?” Jesus did not specifically mention lots of things which we know to be wrong, like bestiality or torture, but that doesn’t mean he approved of them. What Jesus does do is quote from Genesis to affirm God’s pattern for marriage as the basis for his own teaching on divorce. In Mark 10.6-8, He says, “From the beginning of creation, God made them male and female. For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and the two shall become one flesh. Consequently, they are no longer two, but one flesh.” For two men to become one flesh in homosexual intercourse would be a violation of God’s created order and intent. He created man and woman to be indissolubly united in marriage, not two men or two women.

To recap, then, the Bible clearly and consistently forbids homosexual activity. So if God’s will is expressed in the Bible, it follows that homosexual behavior is against God’s will.


Beloved, I hope this article helps you to understand and articulate the truth of God’s word. I pray this helps you to stand in an hour of great deception, in and out of the Church. We cannot bless what God has already condemned and we cannot condemn what God has already blessed. 

Now what practical application does all this have for us as individuals?

First, if you are a homosexual or feel that inclination, keep yourself pure. If you are unmarried, you should practice abstinence from all sexual activity. God requires sexual purity of ALL single people. That means not only keeping your body pure, but also your mind. Just as heterosexual men should avoid pornography and fantasizing, you, too, need to keep your thought-life clean. Resist the temptation to rationalize sin by saying, “God made me this way.” God has made it very clear that He does not want you to indulge your desires, but to honor Him by keeping your mind and body pure. Finally, seek professional Christian counseling. With time and effort, you can come to enjoy normal, heterosexual relations with your spouse. There is hope. If you feel you have been ‘born this way’ Jesus tells us ALL we MUST be BORN AGAIN.

Second, for those of us who are heterosexual, we need to extend God’s love. Sinful acts that are not repented of and no confession and obedience to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior sends heterosexuals to the same place as homosexuals. Vulgar words or jokes about homosexuals should never pass the lips of a Christian. If you find yourself feeling glad when some affliction befalls a homosexual person or you find feelings of hatred welling up in your heart toward homosexual people, then you need to reflect long and hard on the words of Jesus recorded in Matthew: “it will be more tolerable on the Day of Judgment for Sodom and Gomorrah than for you” (Mt. 10.15; 11.24). 



As I write this, a new ‘program’ is underway for initiation. It is the “Brother’s Keeper’ initiative being rolled out by our most pro-homosexual President ever. It is a program reportedly aimed at minority boys and men. But I am concerned. I am concerned, because I see historical patterns repeating. Hitler too had plans for young boys and men under his Hitler Youth program. The ancient Romans and Greeks had plans for their boys too, and even created tax systems around it. My husband shared a dream with me months back and with our spiritual leader. The dream mirrors exactly what the Brother Keeper’s initiative proposes, but the motives are not pure. Only time will tell what the real purpose of this plan, rolled out strategically at a time when black men are being senselessly killed, and when approval rating is low, will reveal. I believe we can’t afford to wait. We must be discerning and not run after everything our government ‘hands out’. Nearly a year, before this initiative, my husband had a very compelling dream concerning young people and the President, delivered to our spiritual oversight. You can read it here:





Before the return of Jesus, as love grows cold and lovers of self grows bolder, we will see plans to implement homosexuality on all levels increase. Some Christians may even lose their life for standing against homosexuality. Some have already lost their businesses over it. As you stand, stand against it in loving truth. Stand against it because you want to see TRUTH invade the souls of men. 

May this article aid you in your understanding of what you are up against, and how you may stand against it. An Outrageous Church is a Church that will stand when darkness covers the earth, to be the glory of God and light in dark places.

Keep standing, and let nothing stop you from being outrageous for Jesus.
