The Gay Agenda...God's instructions to man

Christians believe the Bible is infallible, which means the Bible is direct and error free communication from God the Father to his followers on the earth. In the first book of the Bible, God speaks about his intentions for man in the area of sexual behavior. Genesis 1:27 states “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them”. Later in the same chapter, he says, “God blessed them and said to them, Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it…”(Genesis 1:28). Clearly, we are made in God’s image. To say that God accepts homosexual behavior would be like saying God himself is a homosexual and he was lying when he said increase in number.

Later in the Book of Genesis, the towns of Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed by God because many of the inhabitants were unrepentant homosexuals.

Finally, in the Mosaic law, God gave Moses specific and very clear instructions. In Leviticus18:22, God says “You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination.”

The New Testament is different than the Old Testament. The Old Testament is written with a lot of priestly and civil instruction where penalties were to be administered by the people. While the New Testament does not completely ignore priestly and civil instructions, it is written with a more moral law component with the punishment element being left up to God, especially with this particular sin. Of all the sins mentioned in the New Testament, participating in homosexual acts, in an unrepentant fashion, is the only sin mentioned where God actually hands them over to their perversion. Notice Romans 1:26 -28, “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 person the due penalty of their error. And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper.” Some have argued, “there is no greater sin than the act of practicing unrepentant homosexuality.”

The Gay Agenda in America

The Gay Agenda is becoming one of the most active political action groups in America. Its mission is growing and becoming more widely accepted in the media. Prominent actors, athletes and television personalities are having. “coming–out” parties and the gay community applauds and glamorizes these announcements. The primary idea behind the gay agenda is to provide homosexuals the same legal and moral rights as everyone else. There is an overabundance of legislation that basically will require employers, including churches, to employ a certain percentage of homosexuals as their employee base and provide the same benefits as everyone else. Through state funded sensitivity training, everyone will get along. In the event of dispute, there is even legislation being developed that state funded defense funds could be established to defend homosexuals who are mistreated in the marketplace with funding coming from state tax revenue.

The Gay Agenda is clearly an attack on God’s Word. Many homosexuals like to distort God’s Word by twisting God’s intention for man. But the real reason behind the Gay Agenda has four basic components; (1). It is a conscious and deliberate open rebellion before God and Man, (2). It seeks to distort God’s image into a same sex personality (3). It is designed to violate God’s intended order for man to be fruitful and have children, and (4). It ignores the tremendous amount of Biblical admonitions to the sin itself, including Romans 1:26-28, where the Bible states that God eventually will hand them over to their degrading passions.

As Christians we are instructed to stand firm. It is the Christians job to provide a moral compass for acceptable behavior to the rest of the World. As a New Testament Christian, we do not destroy homosexuals like the leaders did in the Old Testament. We are instructed to love them and pray for their salvation....it is their sin (not the person) that we have issue with. Studies have shown that homosexuality, just like any other compulsion such as alcoholism, gambling and pornography, can be treated and rehabilitated.
