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.
