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 die” John
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

LGBT People can be a CHRISTIAN too if they chose to accept CHRIST JESUS
If you really want to learn more about Shrine Prostitutes check out this link.
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
