🏳️‍🌈✝️πŸ”» IS BEING GAY A SIN?



08/30/2018 


__________________________________________________________________________________ 


Lay people {church goers} are taught by which ever Pastor they chose to listen too. Here in lies the problem. The majority of Pastors have gone through some type of Biblical training {Seminary or College}. These are the places that teach us how to interpret and how to NOT interpret the “HOLY BOOK”.  As Followers of Christ Jesus it is our responsibility to immolate His Character in our daily lives.  Jesus never condemned anyone. Mankind has made their own rules using bits and pieces of a wonder instruction manual. Just like the Scribes and Pharisee’s MOST of the EVANGELICAL CHURCH passes judgment on people from the FALSE TEACHINGS they were taught. They are still today twisting the Words of God to benefit their lavish lifestyles that God frowns upon.



If this illustration represents how your "RELIGION" treats GAY PEOPLE then it is time you become a TRUE FOLLOWER of JESUS CHRIST and FLEE that FALSE RELIGION.

God’s Word tells that it will be harder for a “RICH” man to enter heaven than it is for a camel to go through the eye of the needle {a hole in the wall in Jerusalem}. Mark 10:25



Now that that part is out of the way let me get back to the question at hand. The question so many people have on their mind is whether or not being Gay is a Sin.


Short answer – NO…

God created ALL mankind in His likeness. Spiritually we are ALL like God and God wants us to live life through HIM.

 Jesus said, “Everyone who lives and believes in Me [as Savior] will never dieJohn 11:26


In Romans 3 we find an amazing gift through FAITH in CHRIST JESUS. We learn that EVERYONE continually sins but it is through the LOVE and GRACE of JESUS CHRIST that we are redeemed.

This righteousness of God comes through faith in Jesus Christ for all those [Jew or Gentile] who believes [and trusts in Him and acknowledges Him as God’s Son]. There is no distinction, since all have sinned and continually fall short of the glory of God, and are being justified [declared free of the guilt of sin, made acceptable to God, and granted eternal life] as a gift by His [precious, undeserved] grace, through the redemption [the payment for our sin] which is [provided] in Christ Jesus, whom God displayed publicly [before the eyes of the world] as a [life-giving] sacrifice of atonement and reconciliation (propitiation) by His blood [to be received] through faith. This was to demonstrate His righteousness [which demands punishment for sin], because in His forbearance [His deliberate restraint] He passed over the sins previously committed [before Jesus’ crucifixion]. It was to demonstrate His righteousness at the present time, so that He would be just and the One who justifies those who have faith in Jesus [and rely confidently on Him as Savior]. Romans 3:22-26


The Old Testament—particularly Deuteronomy and the "Deuteronomistic History" (Joshua through 2 Kings)—does condemn "homosexual cult prostitutes" (the so-called qedeshim, "consecrated ones")

 

 


In 1 Corinthians 6:12-20 Paul teaches against the temple prostitutes.

In Romans 1:18-32 Paul teaches about the consequences of turning your back on God to worship false gods/goddess’ and creating idols to worship. This scripture is always used against God’s Rainbow Children when it is NOT even about homosexuality. This passage of scripture is all about those who chose NOT to follow God.

ALL {including LGBTQI+} who separate themselves from idol worship and unbelievers will become the TRUE PEOPLE OF GOD.

What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God; just as God said: “I will dwell among them and walk among them;
And I will be their God, and they shall be My people. “So come out from among unbelievers and be separate,” says the Lord, “And do not touch what is unclean;
And I will graciously receive you and welcome you [with favor], And I will be a Father to you, And you will be My sons and daughters,” Says the Lord Almighty. 2 Corinthians 6:16-18

Those Evangelicals who continue to take scripture out of context to condemn others are the same people who are twisting scripture from the pulpits throughout the land to justify their “Name it and claim it” PROSPERITY GOSPEL. This is why it is so important for each of us to STUDY the WORD of GOD for ourselves allowing the Holy Spirit to teach us ALL things God wants from us.

 
LGBT People can be a CHRISTIAN too if they chose to accept CHRIST JESUS

Pastor Rick Brentlinger, Founder of Gay Christian 101 has compiled years of research concerning the LEGITIMACY of God’s Rainbow Children {LGBTQI+}. I would encourage anyone who doubts that God loves and cares for HIS LGBTQI+ children to check out Pastor Rick’s website, Gay Christian 101.

I know from personal experience how hard it is for Evangelical’s and Religious Cults around the world to accept the FACT that GOD created ALL mankind including LGBTQI+ in His image and likeness. Therefore, God wants ALL of His creation to worship Him in SPIRIT and in TRUTH {John 4:23-24}.

During my journey learning God’s Word and begging God to make me what this world sees as “NORMAL”,  I learned that NOT only did God create me like I am, He created me to be a Good Shepherd to those who are just like me.  If you would like to learn more about how God opened up my eyes to the TRUTH you can read my blog post entitled, Love and Understanding, here.

I pray you will have a better understanding of God’s Rainbow Children learning the TRUTH that God CREATED them just like He created you in HIS PERFECT IMAGE.


ALL {including LGBTQI+} who accept JESUS into their lives become heirs of God’s Promise to Abraham.





For you [who are born-again have been reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, sanctified and] are all children of God [set apart for His purpose with full rights and privileges] through faith in Christ Jesus. For all of you who were baptized into Christ [into a spiritual union with the Christ, the Anointed] have clothed yourselves with Christ [that is, you have taken on His characteristics and values]. There is [now no distinction in regard to salvation] neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you [who believe] are all one in Christ Jesus [no one can claim a spiritual superiority]. And if you belong to Christ [if you are in Him], then you are Abraham’s descendants, and [spiritual] heirs according to [God’s] promise. Galatians 3:26-29



I leave you with this scripture to help you understand how gracious God is to those who chose to follow Christ Jesus.

But to as many as did receive and welcome Him, He gave the right [the authority, the privilege] to become children of God, that is, to those who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) His name— John 1:12
