You have to know the Lord to understand that the inventor of homosexuality hates the Lord, and homosexuals are under his control. When you study the Word of God, it is easy to understand why homosexuals hate true Christians and then turn around and falsely accuse the followers of Christ of acting out of hatred.
“To me, the real issue here is the controversy this has generated,” Jeffress said at the time. “It’s amazing that a church that believes faith alone in Christ is what saves a person and that sex should be between a man and a woman in a marriage relationship – that somehow those beliefs are considered hate speech? That is historic Christian doctrine for the past 2,000 years.”
“Their goal is to marginalize and to discredit Christians,” he told American Family News. “If he cancels this appearance at Liberty University under pressure from the gay lobby, I think his credibility is going to suffer a ton.”

The hatred spewed--and projected onto those whom they hate--by the homosexualists in their war on Christian marriage has more than just a touch of the demonic about it: it puts me in mind of the famous introduction (v. 1 & 2) to the Second Psalm (Douay-Rheims version): "Why have the Gentiles raged, and the people devised vain things? The kings of the earth stood up, and the princes met together, against the Lord and against his Christ."
ReplyDeleteThe way so many professing Christians--like Tim Tebow . . . alas, my wife and I were so encouraged by his public witness pro Christianity when he first became a public figure--have been caving in lately to the hate barrage of the homosexualists also puts me in mind of the unnerving line from Yeats' great poem, "The Second Coming": "The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity."
If Christians--and other people of faith--do not recover some "passionate intensity" for themselves, I fear the prospects of Western Civilization (America there included) are not good. We have Christ's promise that his Kingdom shall prevail in the end, but He never guaranteed that specific _polities_ would survive. And He did not spare even the Jewish people the destruction of their homeland, more than once, when they deviated from the way of the Lord.
Yet again, I thank Mantronikk for his steadfast defense of marriage as God Himself instituted it.
Thank you for your kind and encouraging words. My fervor is for the Truth, and my freedom to believe in and serve the Lord. I will not let the glbt community silence or decieve me.
