There is a wisdom of the world That is so opposed to the word and wisdom of God. This is a complex subject. Where to start? The report and seeing film of a man arrested Outside a station in London, for preaching that god made us man and woman for each other. Speaking about God’s plan for mankind. Someone from the LBGT community complained to nearby police, about what was being said from the word of God.
‘Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world. The world is passing away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of God lives forever.’ 1 John 2:15-17
The LGBT community talks about equality for all; about the freedom to be who and what they want to be without any prejudice. That is an impossible aim, as someone from the LGBT community, showed prejudice against a man who was teaching the truth of the Word of God. Not just that, they managed to get the establishment of the police involved in their prejudice against a man’s Christian beliefs.
A question I ask is, If this man had been a Hindu, or a Muslim, teaching what they believe, would their be reason to suspect religious predjudice, against them. That they would not have been arrested. I suggest that as this man was a Christian, in a supposedly a christian society, he was arrested, because his biblical views were opposed to the political correct views we are told to adopt as Christians, by the establishment?
Political correctness has gone mad! Political correctness is opposed to the Word of God. I am not just talking about LBGT, there is much more. But here is where I begin. We have become a civilised society, that has to accept all of the diversity of opinions that are ingrained into the thought processes of the society. But we are not allowed to speak our opinions out, if they are different to what the world says is right.
Even as Christians we are told that we have to accept that people are just different, and believe the lies that the devil has perpetrated within the minds of the people of the world that we live in. The Bible clearly warns us about, and against these things. For instance most of us know that some mental conditions are spiritual, more than mental. Yet we are not allowed to say that it is a spirit that causes ADHD in a child. It is a spirit that causes Schizophreia, it is a spirit that causes autism, it is a spirit that causes sexual confusion.
There is no woman who was ever born that should have been a man! There is no man ever born that should have been a woman. When we look at the DNA of any of these transexual people it does not lie, the lie is in the mind of the person. It is lies and confusion that comes from the evil spirit world of satan. Where is this spirit world? It is here on the earth, within the people that have not been born again, that have not become a new creation. It is the spirit and the wisdom of the world. It is against the wisdom of God.
‘Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes And clever in their own sight!’ Isaiah 5:20-21
Before the flood of Noah the Bible says that every intention of the heart of mankind was continually evil. This had to be to the point where evil was accepted as normal. A kind of they did not know any better. They had rejected God and His word, they did not pay God any attention. They were not at all mindful of God, but pursued life to their own agenda, without God. They rejected the preaching of Noah. right up till it was too late and the rain fell, and the water came up from below. Only eight people survived, because of the faith of Noah, the father.
In these days, political correctness is man saying that I should be able to do and live whatever life I choose, without any mindfulness of what is right before God! This is the same as at the time of Noah. I know that in this free country, with freedom of speech, that I can be arrested and be covicted as guilty because of stating homophobic views. Even though they are not homophobic they are Christian truth, God’s truth. In this the law is opposed to the truth; the law of the Lord God almighty.
I am not anti LGBT, it is a life choice that they have made, to live in sexual immorality as far as God’s word goes. As a man of God I recognise that I have a duty to warn and teach the truth of God’s Word, no matter what the consequences may be. God’s word speaks speciffically abot this kind of sexual immorality. It is an error in the way that they think. It is a way that the world thinks, that is opposed to the way that God thinks, the way that God planned things to be.
God is not going to force his ways, or His will upon anyone. He will let us know the truth, and we can choose. If we choose the way of the world God will let us do what we want. Just because God does not strike us down for wrong doing does not mean that He is OK with it. Below, when it says that God gave them over to degrading passion. It means that God let them do what was in their hearts to do.
‘For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error.’ Romans 1:26-27
The act of sodomy/buggery began to be decriminaliesd in 1967, By the legalisation decriminilising homosexuality. By 2003 the legal age for homosexual relationships between men was lowered to 16, in line with hetrosexual law. God’s word is very clear about these types of relationships. They are an abomination to Him. There are not many things that the word of God says are an abomination to Him. The reason is because He created man as male and female, for each other.
Romans 1 is very clear about sexual relationships, and what is acceptable to God. Not just Romans but it is mentioned in other places too, which we will look at. There is a story in the Old Testament, when God came to have a chat with Abraham, to let him know what was planned for two cities, Sodom and Gomorrah. Which has much to show about what is God’s view about sexual morality as far as homosexuality is concerned. It ells of the men of that city wanting to have sexual relations with two new men to the city. This is where we get the name of the sin of sodomy from.
‘And the Lord said, “The outcry of Sodom and Gomorrah is indeed great, and their sin is exceedingly grave.’ Genesis 18:20
The outcry of these cities that is great the exceedingly grave sin Is shown up to be homosexuality. We can speculate about other sin but this sexual sin is the one thing that is shown up. Much later on in history there are other sexual sins and sacrifices that the caananites and moabites as well as other nations had adopted as a normal way of life. These things or lifestyles were so abhorrent/evil in the sight of God that the Isaelites were told to completely destroy every living thing in those places. These practices included beastiality.
‘For they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.’ Romans 1:25
It is a spirit of sexual immorality, It is not a sin against God, it is a sin against their own bodies. God wants to protect man so much from this kind of sin against our own bodies because He knows how much damage it can do to us. More than anything it is a desire that separates us from God. In doing so it opens up our bodies to sickness and disease, that the devil wants to bring upon us, to, if possible, destroy our bodies before we become new creations in Jesus.
It is a sin of worship of the creature rather than God. A sexual relationship as God had planned between men and women is honouring of God. To go after strange sex, gay sex, is to deny the will of God. to go against creation, and the purposes of God. Yes it is a sin against our own bodies, but it is abhorrent to God, because it is not what He created us for. The reason that He made us male and female.
Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, 1 Corinthians 6:9 NASB1995
God is love and He loves every single person in their sin. He loves us so much that He did not want us to remain enslaved to the sin that we have become entangled in. He sent His Son Jesus, to set us free. God says that homosexuality is a sin, how can someone continue in this sin and also call themselves Christian. The Word says that to be saved we should repent. That means to turn away from sin, and follow the Lord.
Instead the world has said that this sexual immorality is normal. The world has said that homosexuality is no longer a sin but it is good to allow people to be able to express their sinful desires without prejudice. There has to be prejudice where sin is concerned. In God’s eye sin is sin. Adultery is sin, so is lying. It seems to be OK to commit adultery, and lie, but it is not, especially to the people to whom these sins are committed against.
The world will continue to gravitate away from what is right and true and good. The world will continue to promote, as good, and acceptable things that are against the word of God. It will continue to do this to the point of it being against the law to promote what is true, and right and good, as far as the word of God says’.
As the world and people endeavour to legalise things that are against what is right, and go against the morality of God, God will not be angry, He will not pass judgement on their world. The word of God says that He will allow them to do what they want. But as this is a sin against themselves they will receive into their bodies consequences of the sin. Which can be interpreted as sexually transmitted diseases.
‘For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error.’ Romans 1:26-27
Now again I have to say that God will not and does not judge, nor should we. God calls all to repentance, not judgement. There will be a judgement day, but until then God is patient, not willing that any should perish. The truth is that without repentance and acceptance of the forgiveness of God through Jesus, There is a judgement to be faced by the LGBT community. Really if someone with homosexual tendancies really repents, they will renounce those desires. The trouble is ir is rarely recognised that those desires are a spiritual deception.
All of us, when we first come to Christ have at least a couple of sins that we are engaged in. I would say that all of those sins to one extent or the other involves an element of selfishness. A thing that I have noticed when people talk about sexual immorality, usually use the words,’sexual prefence. Sex between a man and a woman is normal. It is the way that God created us. Then people say, “ that their sexual prefernce is!” Those very words, ‘my sexual prefence is!’, is a statement of selfishness, that they don’t agree with what is right and proper.
‘being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful; and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them.’ Romans 1:29-32
The following is a statement from the LGBT UK website.
Our campaign will bring LGBT communities together to challenge prejudice, raise awareness and change hearts and minds in wider society. We have seen from recent campaigns, such as the LGBT inclusive education campaign, that when our communities come together we are able to mobilise policy-makers, LGBT communities and the wider public under the banner of Equality Wins.
What this is saying is that LGBT people have the right to be classed as equal to the ’normal’, hetrosexual world. It is a challenge to the ordinance of God. As such it should not be allowed that they be discriminated against. I agree, they have as much right not to be discriminated against, as black people or white; as obese people or the very thin; As women and as men; As children and even the old. Everyone has the same rights not to be discriminated against.
Equality can never win, not the equality the world promotes. Real equality comes through the Gospel, Jesus came that all might have abundant life. LGBT and political correctness does not promote equality. It promotes division. It highlights differences. It is people saying that ‘WE ARE DIFFERENT’ and you have to accept that. The laws of political correctness are called, ‘diversity and inclusion.’ (different, and make acceptable)
We all have the right to choose what we do in life, it was God that gave us free will.
The trouble is that it does not matter how many laws are put in place, there will always be some sort of prejudice, because it is human sinful nature. Prejudice is heightened because of people drawing attention to it. This is a fact. The more that we highlight our differences the more discrimination is highlighted. We can drive discrimination and prejudice underground, but that does not get rid of it. It is still there, but it is hidden. Every now and again it raises its head, and so we make a gigantic thing of what human nurture is really like without God.
Many Christians have become so affected (and infected) by political correctness that they neglect to speak the truth, out of fear of upsetting someone. Others make apologies in advance of speaking the truth. So by doing it negates the power of the Gospel. There is no dicrimination with God, He will accept everyone who repents and accepts Jesus as Savior. It does not matter how big or small our sin has been. On judgement day basically it will be did you choose life or death? We will get what we chose.
