Gay Christians? Are You Kidding Me?
I, first, would like you all to ask yourselves something. "Would God create something that's an abomination to himself?" If you're a person with common sense, I believe your answer to that would be 'no'.
Well, I don't know how well-informed you are, but same-sex marriage has been approved in the state of California, where I reside. There's also this steady rise of a group of people who consider themselves to be gay Christians. You may or may not have heard of a so-called Christian, singing duo by the names of Jason and DeMarco, who also happen to be a couple. They're contributing a lot to this cause, by sharing their music and the particular message they want to send out about being gay and Christian to the world, especially to our youth. And I honestly couldn't be more disgusted.
They recently had a televised documentary, "We're All Angels", and, within it, this woman considered homosexuality a gift from God...just like blue eyes, blond hair, etc.
ARE YOU FRIGGIN' KIDDING ME?!!!!!
Before I go any further into this post, I would like you to know that I do believe people can be gay and still believe in God. But one must keep in mind that to be a Christian, they must do their best to follow in the footsteps of Christ. Though it's impossible to be just like him, we should strive to be everyday. That's where the clause 'what would Jesus do?" comes from. And I highly doubt Jesus slept with his disciples.
I know there is no man without sin. It's in our nature to sin. No doubt about it. However, it's up to us whether we decide to commit that sin or not.
For example, we as humans are naturally filled with lust. Some may lust for the opposite sex and some may lust for the same. What causes that difference? I don't know. I'm not a scientist. Yet, I'm going to provide you with an example of something that demonstrates how wrong the message these gay Christians are trying to spread really is.
If you're familiar with the Bible, you know that fornication (sex outside of marriage) is a sin. And I won't lie. I've been guilty of it several times. Yet, seeing myself as a Christian--as hard as that may be to believe by some (LOL)--I know it's not right. And I would never preach to the youth of our nation, or to anyone else for that matter about it being right.
I notice a lot of homsexuals state that they've been that way for as long as they can remember...that it's a part of who they are. And that's the biggest lie they can convince themselves.
Do you know why we have lust--lust that's supposed to be for the opposite sex? It's so that we will have the urge to marry and reproduce. I mean, think about it. If we had no feelings for the opposite sex whatsoever...no attraction, there wouldn't be very many people on the planet. So, lust is a very natural thing to feel. It's how one acts on that lust that matters. Some consider lust itself to be a sin, but it states very clearly in the Bible that it's better to marry than to be filled with lust. So, God is very much aware that it's there. And I, therefore, consider it to be natural.
I could choose to fornicate, but I wouldn't be doing what God would like to see me do. And the same goes for homosexuals. That urge may be there, but it doesn't mean you have to act on it. And you sure as hell shouldn't be spreading the message that it's okay to be that way. That's spreading Satan's message, not God's. And there will come a day that these people will greatly suffer, for it is an abomination against God. An abomination being, 'something God hates'.
Don't get me wrong. He doesn't hate homosexuals, just as he doesn't hate fornicators. What he has a problem with is the act itself.
So, why is it that we can be born with lust, but it's not considered a part of who we are? However, if one considers themself to be a homosexual, it is a part of who they are. If you ask me, that's what they need to convince themselves in order to escape the spiritual penalty they're going to be faced with.
No one is born homosexual. For years, psychologists have reported that it's very natural for an individual to be attracted to both sexes. It's very natural for individuals to experiment with the same sex. Some do and some don't. But to say one is born to do the one thing God truly hates is ignorant. It says just as plain as day in Leviticus that a man shouldn't lay with a man as he would a woman. But, of course, a homosexual's response to this is that the Bible has been tampered with for many years. And you know what I see that as? Selective belief. And God doesn't go for that. You can't pick the parts of the Bible you agree with and say that other parts are untrue. You may as well have no faith in the Bible altogether.
Then...some of them have the nerve to ask how we know it's wrong? It doesn't take a genius to realize that even the physical part of the relationship doesn't correspond well. In order for a gay or lesbian to be together, they have to commit what's known as sodomy, which used to be against the law in every state. The sex they have is very unnatural. And is it a wonder why no children can be produced in such a relationship? Come on...who do they think they're fooling?
You'll also notice that people who have something to be ashamed of or who harbor guilt make an attempt to throw it in the faces of others every chance they get. I've had friends who have been homosexual and they've either tried to 'turn' me, or are constantly trying to make an argument as to why what they're doing isn't wrong.
Do we have heterosexual pride parades? No. We don't have to. Because that's the way it should be. We don't have to flaunt our sexuality in public, because it's naturally accepted. That's the way God intended for it to be.
Yet, these people constantly talk about their rights, and this, and that. Shut up already. Accept the fact that what you're doing isn't of God and it's not natural.
I, normally, don't have a problem with gay people. Yet, it becomes a problem when they start spreading lies about homosexuality being okay...especially to our youth.
Just as I have to do my best to refrain from fornication, since I'm not married. They have to do the same--refrain from sexual activity with the same sex. If that means celibacy, then that's what it means. Yet, I know how hard of a task that is. So, we're all bound to slip up some time. Whether heterosexual or homosexual.
Thing is...homosexuals are just as wrong in the act they're committing, and it's just not right to say they're not wrong. In a way, it's a form of corruption and it truly sickens me.
I don't hate homosexuals. I love them as my fellow brothers and sisters, as I should. But I hate what they do. Just as God does.
Of course they're free to love someone of the same sex. I love plenty of people that are the same sex as me. Yet, if I were to have sex with that person...just as if I was to have sex with a man...it would be wrong. And nothing can change that.
Some of you might be wondering why I'm ranting and raving about this when I'm a sinner myself. However, I would first like to ask, "Who is without sin?" Secondly, I want to make it very clear that I wouldn't be preaching something to be right when I know it's not.
How would it look if I went around the world preaching that murder was okay...that fornication was okay? Not like a very Christian person. Not like someone who has any type of concern for God's true message. Starting to catch my drift?
I also want everyone who reads this post to know that God considers no sin greater than another. Of course, there are different penalties for the crimes we commit here on Earth, but those are penalties created by man.
God loves homosexuals just as much as he loves anyone else on Earth. So, I'm not trying to encourage others to hate them. I just want them to know how wrong they are in trying to teach others that this type of behavior is okay.
I have no doubt it may be a part of who they are, but that doesn't give them any more privilege to commit homsexual acts than that of someone born with schizophrenia who, one day, decides to push a young woman in front of a train (actual story). Either way it goes, it's murder...no matter what the mind frame of the perpetrator is. And God will judge that person...no need for us to.
I'm actually ashamed I live in a country whose pledge of allegiance includes the phrase, 'one nation under God', yet they're now promoting this same-sex marriage bologna. I don't care what anyone has to say about it. God never intended for two men or two women to get married. He said, "Be fruitful and multiply." And, in case you haven't noticed, that's a bit impossible for gays and lesbians. It may be impossible for a heterosexual couple as well. But we all know that's limited to unfortunate physical problems and the inability to conceive.
I believe people have the right to do whatever they want behind closed doors. It's not up to me to judge, but God, in the end, will. My problem is that far too many homosexuals throw their bedrooms in your face...with this gay pride, same-sex marriage due to having civil rights, rainbows, etc.
If you're going to be gay, shut up and be gay. But stop throwing it in the faces of others and stop trying to corrupt the minds of our youth. You are sinning...no matter how much you try to sugarcoat it. And you will suffer the consequences of your actions, whether you have a marriage license or not.
Get over it.
