The Lie: Coming Out as gay - forces sinful homosexual to be seen as normal
As Gregory Woods notes in A History of Gay Literature, queerness has been here from the beginning, and shall be here in the end, alongside heterosexuality.
But the Bible affirms that sexual sin came from the fall of humanity of Adam and Eve. It is the result of sin and our sin nature.
Homosexuality only recently started to assert itself, with campaigns in Britain during the 1950s and 60s demanding the decriminalisation of homosexual acts between consenting adults in private.
Why were homosexual acts criminalized for 1000's years? The arrival of Postmodernism - where we all have our own personal truths and personal rights and wrongs. Postmoderism contradicts natural law, Biblical law plus science and evolution.
Most dangerous - yet we only apply that to morals and not gravity or standing in fronts of a speeding car.
After the Stonewall riots in 1969, the early gay liberation movement began to demand more comprehensive change – the problem was not homosexuality but society’s conception of itself. One of the most influential ways of creating change was for queer people to come out, to publicly state their sexuality, Graham Willett, president of the Australian Lesbian and Gay Archives, tells me. It was intended as a means of asserting queer presence and identities.
This fulfills scripture in that God removes grace and hands them over to the fullness of their sins. This assertion of queer rights is to be expected because Satan wants this particular sin to be promoted - as it destroys God's ideal for marriage.
Since then, sportspeople and celebrities announcing their sexuality or gender identity publicly (Caitlin Jenner, Jason Ball) have had positive effects, Graham says. “Public coming out is important – but not as important as or more important than the ordinary people moving through ordinary life.”

Ordinary people coming out, therefore, affect common perceptions of homosexuality. So while the ceremony may be difficult, it might also be essential – not unlike same-sex marriage – in normalising diverse sexualities and gender identities.
The LGBT agenda is the normalizing the acceptance of homosexuality as somehting good as compared to scripture which states it is abhorrently bad.
