A former lesbian’s moving story of freedom from homosexual sin

[Editor's note:  I have come to know Wendy and her story through an amazing set of circumstances that only God could have arranged. She is a delightful woman who loves the Lord with all of her heart and has asked BarbWire to share her moving story of redemption and freedom from homosexual sin through the power of Christ Jesus . Wendy has said that it is her hope that her testimony might resonate with even one person who can relate to the circumstances that Satan used to lead her into the homosexual lifestyle. If you are that person, then you (and God) will know it. What the enemy intended for evil, God is using for incredible good in the life of Wendy. The same can be true for you. - Matt Barber ] My name is Wendy and I was born in a small town in Virginia . I was in church, every time the doors were open, for as far back as I can remember. I also attended the Christian school within my church that was rooted deeply in an Independent Baptist doctrine. My mama was very sickl

Sexual Orientation and the Gospel of Jesus Christ

English: Sinful Gender symbols, sexual orientation: heterosexuality, homosexuality, bisexuality display sinful passions (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) I reccently addressed a major national conference on “ The Gospel, Homosexuality, and the Future of Marriage ” held by the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention . As expected, the conference was one of the most responsible and edifying meetings yet held of Christians concerned about these issues. This is exactly what would be expected of the ERLC and its leadership. The conference was both helpful and historic. I had the honor of delivering the opening keynote address entitled “Aftermath: Ministering in a Post-Marriage Culture.” The full text of my address will be posted here shortly. Subsequent to the conference, it became clear that the vast coverage of the conference in the national press raised some issues that need to be considered further. One of these issues is sexual orientation . As I expla

Lesbian sin (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Robin Teresa Beck, 59, lived through 12 lesbian relationships over the course of 35 years before her dramatic conversion to the Catholic faith and healing from homosexuality, just five years ago. Read LifeSiteNews’ coverage of Robin’s dramatic story  here . Read the full interview here . Beck spoke with LifeSiteNews over the phone from her home in Michigan in the Detroit area about everything from the impossibility of creating a healthy gay relationship, to why lesbian relationships can never fulfill the emotional needs of women, to how she believes God looks on people struggling with homosexuality, to how the Church should approach homosexuals. Her experience with same-sex attraction and the gay lifestyle gives her insight into what is at the heart of homosexuality and why it is fundamentally incompatible with the human person and with Christianity . “Our Creator said that a man leaves his mother and father and comes together wi

ACT Rebellious Uniting Church Minister to marry Homosexuals

Uniting Church in Australia (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Rouge liberal Uniting Church  locum-pastor Roger Munson sees nothing incompatible between the teachings of Jesus Christ and same-sex marriages. All conservative Christian church leaders remain at the forefront of organised opposition to the legalisation of homosexual marriage. But Mr Munson, a Canberra Uniting Church minister, is a registered celebrant under the ACT's marriage homosexual law and will preside at the wedding of a male couple this weekend. He has organised commitment ceremonies for homosexual couples in the past and said he was happy for gay and lesbian couples to marry . Munson lacks understanding of Biblical moral law which Jesus spoke very clearly about. When asked a question on divorce Jesus outlined the biblical concept of marriage as ordained by God being between a man and a woman for life.   Munson illustrates either his lack of knowledge, poor understanding or biblical moral law or rebellion
