THE ABOMINATION OF HOMOSEXUAL CLERGY AND CHURCHES
---

"Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve
death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those
who practice them." Romans 1:32

The ABOMINATION of "homosexual" clergy and churches. I have clearly stated in
many past messages that homosexuality is a sin, and that FACT is not even debatable.
But today I MUST speak out on "churches" that support this sexual choice, and ANY
denomination or ministerial organization that would even consider having someone who
has chosen this as their sexual preference to be ordained into their fellowship.

The purpose of this message is to warn those who are not aware to what extent
the pro-homosexual agenda is being fulfilled and to hopefully wake up the
bloated, weak, and apathetic church that has to bear much of the responsibility
for the moral decay of our culture. The goal of those who have chosen the
homosexual lifestyle is to justify their sinful choice that is inherently
destructive both to society and themselves. They are trying to force society to
validate legally and ethically their choice of sexual behavior and
relationships, and to enact laws that allow them to promote this sinful choice
to our children as normal, even desirable behavior.

Of course, anyone that dares to speak up on this issue is labeled as
"intolerant," "small-minded," and a "homophobe." I find it amusing that Dr.
Laura, who correctly pointed out that homosexuality is a deviant lifestyle, had
her television program targeted and eventually taken off the air by the
homosexual community. So this group that calls for tolerance by others, is very
INTOLERANT when someone opposes their views. They also use the word "homophobe"
to intimidate people from speaking out against their sexual choice.

Let me say right up front, sin is sin in God's eyes. The very definition, sin is
rebellion to God. . No sin is greater than another. The sin of homosexuality is
no more, or no less a sin than murder, adultery, stealing, lying, gossiping, or
gluttony. THE REASON THIS SIN IS BEING SINGLED OUT AND ADDRESSED IS BECAUSE
THOSE WHO COMMIT IT, ARE PROUD OF THEIR SIN AND PROMOTE IT AS AN ACCEPTABLE
LIFESTYLE! People who commit adultery do NOT have parades to celebrate their
sin. People who commit murder do NOT have political action committees to make
murder legal. People who steal do not have high school clubs and try to teach
children that stealing is acceptable behavior. Homosexuality is a SIN in the
eyes of God and is something to be ashamed of, NOT proud of.

Sin is a choice! The two greatest lies the pro-homosexual community has put out
are that 1) homosexuality is something that you are "born with", 2) 10% or more
in our society are homosexual First, modern science has been unable to prove
that ANYONE is "born gay". IT IS A CHOICE!!!! PEOPLE CHOOSE TO ENGAGE IN
HOMOSEXUAL BEHAVIOR!!!! LIKE ALL SIN, ONCE YOU DO IT LONG ENOUGH, IT MAY SEEM
'NATURAL', BUT IT IS STILL A CHOICE THAT YOU MAKE. Also, all legitimate studies
done by the non-homosexual community clearly show that less then 1% of the
population EVER engage in this type of sexual choice.

Theologically this is not even a debatable issue. All through the Bible, from
the Old Testament through the New, homosexuality is defined by God as a sin,
PERIOD. God calls it an ABOMINATION! I have heard the tortured theological
arguments homosexuals have made, but there is absolutely NO WAY to change the
fact this act is a sin. Just because there is now a homosexual version of the
Bible where they have literally changed the passages that call this act a sin,
that does NOT change God's inspired, inerrant Word. Just because there is a fast
growing homosexual denomination, the Metropolitan Community of Churches, that
does NOT change the fact God calls this act a sin. I can guarantee you if I
started a church that taught adultery was acceptable and wonderful behavior, I
could fill stadiums on Sunday morning! THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN CHANGE THE FACT
GOD CALLS HOMOSEXUALITY A SIN!!!

To have a "church" that accepts this sinful choice, to have a ministerial body
that accepts people as clergy who make this choice, you MUST reject the
inspiration and inerrancy of God's Word. There is no difference in having a
"church" that accepts those who make the choice to engage in homosexual
behavior, as a "church" that would accept those who make the choice to commit
adultery. How popular would THAT church be!!! To have an institution represent
God, to have people represent God, who have clearly REJECTED God, is an
ABOMINATION!!! It makes me sick every time that I hear of a "church" that
accepts homosexuality as an acceptable sexual choice, and even more sick when I
hear of a denomination or ministerial organizations that accepts people who
choose to engage in this type of sinful sexual behavior to be in spiritual
leadership.

Sadly, the voice of sin in our culture has almost an unlimited national platform
in which to try and get people to accept that their view is correct. The Bible
is our ultimate authority in ALL matters. The Bible clearly says that God
condemns the choice of homosexual behavior as sin, and an abomination. You
either believe God, or reject God. The choice is that simple. Can those who
choose to engage in this behavior go to Heaven? Of course!!! Just like those who
chose to commit murder, those who choose to commit adultery, those who choose to
engage in ANY sin can go to Heaven.

It is your faith in Jesus Christ that saves you. But IF you choose Jesus as your
Savior, it is hard to believe that you can engage in continual sinful activity.
It is hard to believe that you can blatantly sin against the God that you
proclaim to love. Jesus said that if you loved Him, you would obey Him, NOT live
in blatant rebellion to Him. While your faith in Christ may save you eternally,
your rebellion against God will make you an instrument that God can never use to
reach others for the Kingdom, and you will go through this life without knowing
the true joy, the true peace, the real abundance that this life can offer when
you are living in accordance with God's word.

Churches that tell people it is OK to engage in habitual sinful activity like
homosexuality are an abomination to God. To have any denomination or ministerial
organization accept those into the ministry who are living a life of blatant rebellion to
God makes a mockery of the ministry. You can't cut out the parts of the Bible that
you don't like. Once you start down that road, you have made yourself God.

However, we live in a free society. If people who have chosen to engage in
homosexual activity want to have their own church, they have every right to.
Just like those who worship satan can have their own church. As those who follow
Christ, we have a responsibility to pray for them, for God to open their hearts
to the truth of His Word, and to turn from their sin. Only God can change
hearts, and for those who are in bondage to the sin of homosexuality we must
pray for them to open their hearts and turn from their sin.

Until Jesus returns, we will always have those who choose a perverted form of
sex with those of their own gender, just like we will always have those who
choose to pervert sex by having it outside of the bonds of marriage. While we
can never accept their choice since it is clearly against God's Word, we must
pray for them, just like we must pray for everyone who is battling any sin in
their life.

For those reading this who are currently fighting homosexuality, let me tell you
that God has never stopped loving you, and is simply waiting for you to turn
from your sin and come back to Him. We serve a God of deliverance from sin, a
God of forgiveness, and a God of restoration. Millions have turned from the sin
of homosexuality and found complete restoration and fulfillment in living a life
according to God's plan. What He did for someone else, He can do for you! I pray
today that you hear these words, and choose to find freedom from your sin today.
That freedom is only a prayer away!

In His love and service,
