They
traded the truth about God for a lie. So they worshiped and served
the things God created instead of the Creator himself, who is worthy
of eternal praise! Amen.That is why God abandoned them to their
shameful desires. Even the women turned against the natural way to
have sex and instead indulged in sex with each other. And the
men, instead of having normal sexual relations with women, burned
with lust for each other. Men did shameful things with other men, and
as a result of this
sin,
they suffered within themselves the penalty they deserved. Romans
1:25-27
I'm not afraid to say that
homosexuality is a sin.
Adultery is sin.
Stealing is sin.
Lying is sin.
Killing is sin.
Worshiping anything other than God is sin.
Definition of sin: Breaking God's laws; snubbing our nose at God and rebelling against Him.
Sin brings bondage. It's pleasures are
temporary. God did not create certain desires that give us pleasure
and then tell us not to do them. He is not the creator of sin.
Satan devised sin as a way to capture, ensnare, and turn us away from
the truth and the life and the way to live that brings freedom.
Witchcraft and satanism are alive and
well in the Christian churches. Satan's scheme is to twist and
distort truth and what better way than to infiltrate the Christian
church. He loves to make Christians look like hypocrites;
money-grubbing fools; and narrow hate-filled mongers. If satan can
distort the true bride of Christ, he gains ground in keeping people
away from salvation. Why not plant homosexual's in the church and
have them broadcast far and wide, “God did not say you cannot sleep
with a member of the same sex. God would not say that. He is a god
of love. Go on, eat the apple.”
The true bride of Christ cannot be
deceived or manipulated. The true bride of Christ understands
holiness. The true bride of Christ loves the law.
Yet sadly, many who call themselves
Christians are being deceived and manipulated.
One of the greatest forms of
manipulation that is used by our enemy towards Christians is to plant
the thought, “You are not showing love.”
Oh how weak we Christians are! Because
we don't know we are completely and forever loved by Christ, in our
depths of depravity we long to be loved and perceived in a positive
light and so we panic. “I'm not showing love! Oh no! What will
they think of me? After all, Christ showed love to the woman caught
in adultery by not casting a stone.”
I believe that Jesus wrote in the sand the
sins of the Pharisee's and exposed THEIR sins. The woman was willing to agree with Jesus that adultery is sin. We know this because Jesus said, “Go your way and SIN
NO MORE.” He didn't say, “I know you've been abused and you were
just committing adultery because of your past. I understand.”
Nor did He say, “Come on Pharisee's, you are sinners too. Let's
just love one another and all get along.” No, I believe He PUBLICLY exposed
their sins which brought so much humiliation and shame that they had
to walk away. It was a brutal thing for Jesus to do and it most likely caused them to hate him all the more for exposing
their sin. Sin no more. Sin no more......sin no more.... it
reverberates down through time. SIN NO MORE.
Due to satan's lies and our own false sense of guilt, many become bleeding heart's towards the homosexual community
with attitudes such as, “Those poor gay people. They've been so
hated and persecuted, I better make up for all the Christians in the
world who have hated them and show them that at least I love and
understand them.” Of course, we need to love people who practice homosexuality, just as we need to love murderers, liars and adulterers but that doesn't mean that we have to be evasive or pretend that we think their sin is okay. Love speaks up. Love tells the truth.
One thing the Lord asks of us is that
we agree with Him that sin is sin, yet the homosexual community
refuses to do this. Most adulterers agree that adultery is sin; most
liar's will say, “Yes, I shouldn't lie,” and thieves, though they
may justify their thievery, will agree it is wrong to steal.
Telling a homosexual that their
behavior is sin is NOT AN ACT OF HATE. It is an act of love. A
love that longs to turn them around from the path that leads to
destruction and put them on a path that leads to life.
On the converse, keeping QUIET is a
sin. Do you not love enough to tell someone when they are going to
fall off a cliff or that their house is on fire and they better get
out quick? Love rescues. Love tells the truth. Love risks being
hated and slandered. Love risks being misunderstood. Love wants the
highest good for a person and not just temporal pleasure and
happiness.
So, I shout it from the roof-tops:
“YOU ARE BEING LIED TO! HOMOSEXUALTIY IS A SIN, A TRAP, AND A
SNARE THAT IS HARD TO BREAK ONCE YOU ENTER!” God's word clearly
states that homosexuality is a sin. The words have not been twisted.
We all must turn from sin and agree with God that sin is sin. We
must hate the things that God hates and love the things that God
loves.
Why does God hate sin? Because he
knows it will enslave and entrap. It's that simple. He loved us
enough to write down FREEDOM on two stone tablets and forever give
them to the world. That's what the 10 commandment's are: steps to
freedom. Yet satan has twisted the commandments and lied to us and
whispered to us in his slimy voice that it is an evil god who would
try and tell us what to do and that we can't have happiness if we
follow HIS way.
Life isn't a test that says, “Can you
avoid sin and come to heaven?” It's not about that. It's about
embracing HIM who is life and freedom and love.
Satan is a liar.
Come on Christians. You have been
manipulated by the master of all lies. Quit kowtowing to the
homosexual agenda! Quit worrying that you will be perceived as a
hate-filled monger! If someone is addicted to drugs, do you say to
that person, “I'm so glad it makes you feel good. Here's some money
to buy more.” NO! You try and rescue them. It is the same with
homosexuals. By your keeping quiet, you are keeping them enslaved
and trapped into lies. Loving is telling the truth.
