Former gay man: Christ’s cross has power to purge Church of homosexual corruption

Image
The time has come to look at homosexuality in the Church using a better lens. Lack of tolerance isn’t the problem. Affirmation of wrongly-ordered lives and trivialization of the Gospel, however, are, and they have served to diminish the meaning and power of the Cross of Christ, and the sublime beauty of His love for His Bride, the Church.  Our discussions about homosexuality have camouflaged the truth When it comes to discussions about the origins of same-sex attraction in people’s lives, only two possibilities are considered: Homosexuals are either ‘born that way,’ or we are that way because of some anomaly in our upbringing. The now firmly ensconced LGBT establishment has settled on ‘born that way’ because it allows gay activists to argue for constitutional protections based on an immutable characteristic, albeit a contrived one. It also allows homosexuals to endlessly portray themselves as victims. These are tactics, not truths, though they ‘feel’ like truth because they’ve ...

Rosie O’Donnell called Trump ‘Satan’ at LGBT award show

Image
Liberal comedienne and talk show host Rosie O'Donnell gave the audience at a homosexual awards banquet her assessment of the last U.S. presidential election: " Satan won." O'Donnell, who with her lesbian partner has adopted children , addressed the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) Media Awards on Saturday. She admitted to having a " major depressive disorder " but didn't link that to her public hatred for the new president. Instead, she congratulated herself for enduring the new Trump administration.  "I’m still vertical after Satan won. That to me is a major accomplishment for someone who suffers from major depressive disorder," she  said . Perez Hilton said O’Donnell  shared  with the audience a text to President Trump: "F*** you, Donald. From the gays."  Is this not the tolerance homosexual movement ? Now we again see the truth. They are intolerant haters, bigots, manipulators of all that ...

LGBTQ owns Hollywood

Image
LGBTQ media representation has soared recently. Will and Grace  historically, presented a sanitized version of the sin of homosexuality . Joe Biden said it was this TV show 'Will and Grace" that changed his mind about the sin of homosexuality and hence his own daughters fall into homosexual sin was now honored instead of being challenged. Forgiveness of homosexual sin is still offered by Christ to save those drowning in this ugly sin. Vice President takes his morals from the TV - God help us!! Now new homosexuality trans shows like: Transparent and Orange is the New Black will attempt to tell sad personal stories in order to get people to focus away from homosexual sin and transgender mental health issues towards seeing people as ordinary people.  IGNORE THE SIN OF HOMOSEXUAL TELL A NICE STORY But LGBTQ still have major strides to make in terms of positively portraying queer and trans characters. Sarah Kate Ellis , president and CEO of GLAAD , described the ...

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...

Megachurch pastor: Denominations that allow gay ‘marriage’ are ‘Satan’s church’

Image
In the wake of the Presbyterian Church (USA)’s recent decision to celebrate same-sex “marriages,” celebrity pastor John MacArthur of “Grace to You” has come out with some strong statements condemning “false churches” that abandon Biblical teachings against homosexual behavior. “They have no allegiance to the Bible,” MacArthur told  The Blaze  online news service. “You go back to every one of those seminaries … for a century [they] have been deniers of biblical authority, they have no relationship to scripture, they are the apostate church, they are Satan’s church.” While it seems clear MacArthur was implying that self-professed Christians who accept gay “marriage” are doing Satan’s work, not necessarily worshiping the devil, it is worth noting that the actual  Satanic Temple of America  has called same-sex “marriage” one of its “ sacraments .” MacArthur, who is Baptist, believes in the teachings of John Calvin regarding the inerrancy and literal truth of ...

Should we use words like: Adulterer Christian, Porn Christian or Gay Christian?

Image
In his new book God and the Gay Christian, Matthew Vines seeks to legitimate homosexual practice among evangelicals. I responded to this heretical teaching yesterday in my post about the new Southern Seminary eBook , God and the Gay Christian? I quoted a section from my chapter on the church’s historical teaching, a chapter that has now been posted in full over at the Council on Biblical Manhood & Womanhood . Today I’d like to think a little more with you about Vines’s use of the term “gay Christian” (I also commend to you this excellent and stirring post from my SBTS colleague and New Testament expert Jim Hamilton). This is not a new descriptor, but Vines has infused new meaning into it. Authors who have previously used it have done so with the understanding that “gay Christian” is essentially equivalent to “born-again believer who experiences, to some degree, ongoing same-sex attraction and who willingly resists gratifying this desire.” Vines, however, uses the term to essenti...
