NOTICE: As I referenced in my last post on the subject, this is my second (and hopefully final) post regarding this particular issue.
Next, I'm putting this at the beginning of this post, because those of you with ADD might not make it all the way through. There is no hate of any kind contained within this post. Twist and turn all of my words if you'd like, but you're not going to get away with saying that my words or my intent are hateful.

There's an old "school of thought" that basically goes
like this, "If you ignore em, they'll go away!". Well, we've
been ignoring and ignoring and ignoring and ignoring and I'll tell you what...
There must have been an active decision made by those who refuse to let
it go, to not go away ON PURPOSE.
For the first time in the history of the United States ,
we're trying to treat the homosexual community as a type of ETHNIC GROUP. Which
the LGBT folks are NOT. They don't deserve "special rights" or
considerations because they choose to have lustful encounters with members of
their own gender.
I say that if they want to do that kind of stuff, they should go right
ahead. No government, nor "morally conscious group of
individuals" should have the right to tell you what to do with your
private parts. Seriously, go on.... Live it up while you can... I
know that hasn't always been the position in the U.S. , but now, why not? God
gives each one of us SOVEREIGNTY. He lets us decide what to do with it.
God has never once forced anybody on this planet to COMPLY with His
commands. And make no mistake about it, they're commands. Just because
an individual disobeys doesn't make it any less of a command.
Ok, so now that nobody really cares what you do in your bedroom,
maybe now they just want respect? Ok, but not CORPORATE RESPECT.
Nobody should be FORCED to respect someone because they're a homosexual,
inasmuch as nobody should be forced to respect someone because they're black or
asian either.
So we're out of your bedroom and you're eligible for the same
"respect" as everyone else on the planet is. Now what do you
want? I know! You want to invade something that God created for 1 man and
1 woman to share.... You want to get MARRIED! See, this is where you
cross the line. Share your bed, thoughts, dreams, money, time and
whatever else it is that you want to share, BUT DO IT OUTSIDE OF MATRIMONY.
From the 1828 Webster's Dictionary:
Matrimony - Marriage; wedlock; the union of man and woman for life; the nuptial state.
From the 1913 Webster's Dictionary:
Matrimony - The union of man
and woman as husband and
wife; the nuptial state; marriage; wedlock.
From the 1963 Webster's Seventh New Collegiate Dictionary:
Matrimony - The union of man and woman as husband and wife
From the 2014 WordNet Dictionary:
Matrimony - The state of being a
married couple voluntarily
joined for life
Marriage - Two people who are married to each other
See? That's what happens when the people "perpetrating
the crime" go to work at trying to turn their demented form of
"love" into something that is EQUAL to something else, that is
considered Holy, Sacred and Special. They take that special relationship
between a man and a woman AND
GOD and they DEFILE IT
and water down the meaning.
For the past 4-5 years, the homosexual community, which has been
lead primarily by The Huffington Post and Google (yes, that's right, I said
Google) has been getting louder and louder and louder by the DAY. I
thought I had enough, when in 2012 I caught the last half of a Dateline show
about how there was this mother of a 6 year old BOY. And (long story short) this BOY was
having emotional problems and one day the mother decided to buy her SON girls
clothing. Well, miraculously, the BOY now felt better dressing and
looking like a girl, so the mother decided to let her SON LIVE LIKE a girl. Now before some of you
start thinking things like "well maybe he was born in the wrong body"
or "you never know, it could happen", you have to understand that as
of the broadcast date of this show, the BOY was now 10 years old. They
have it RECORDED and right out of this BOYS mouth, that "Maybe I want to
be a boy" and HE is asking HIS mother what HE should be! So much for
"born this way"... I've maintained all along that homosexuality
is a mental problem, disorder, etc. Fact is, the American Psychiatric
Association used to TEACH THIS FACT in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of
Mental Disorders, at least up until 1974 when the association became full of
homosexual doctors, that had the motivation to have this FACT turned on it's
ear. After all, you wouldn't want a psychiatrist with a mental disorder
treating you, now would you? Look, this fact is common knowledge among
mental health PhD's and is recorded in numerous places that you can read for
yourself on the internet. The "gay activists" of the time also
wanted to have a say in what our DOCTORS said and did. Isn't that just
wonderful?
Like I said at the beginning of that last paragraph, "I
thought I had enough when...." Except apparently I hadn't actually
"had enough" quite yet. Or perhaps I just hadn't been lead by
The Holy Spirit to say something about it until now. A few days
ago, the 2014 Winter Olympics began. On day one, I was in the kitchen
washing my hands and I overheard Bob Costas speaking with someone about what Russia and
President Putin "thought about" and was going to "do about"
all of the homosexuals that were participating in the Olympics. And then
the next day, I overheard that the United States
was sending over Brian Boitano and Billy Jean King to be the "U.S.
Ambassadors" to the Olympics. Are you kidding me? The United States thought it was a good idea to turn
this international event into their opportunity to call out Russia on their
stance regarding homosexuals? Oh, perhaps you don't understand.
Both Brian and Billy Jean are two of the most blatantly homosexual
"sporting related figures" that the Unites States has ever
"produced".
And because of this "Homocentric Olympiad", it's turned the media into a "Coming Out Party Outlet"... Since the 2014 Olympics began, I've seen the following individuals ride the "coming out rail", in order to ensure their relevance for at least 1 more day. Conner Mertens, Ari-Pekka, Michael Sam, Ellen Page, M.K. Nobillette, Casey Stoney & Ryan Dolan.

So why was this the straw that broke the camels back? I'm
not certain. What I do know, is that the LIBERALS are going CRAZY in
order to promote the nonsensical concept of TRANSGENDER EQUALITY, as if a "Transgender" is some
kind of new GENDER. It isn't. They'll try to convince you that it
should be, but if you've got a minimum of 10 brain cells left if your head,
you'll know better.
So let's get down to business...
You've read it before and I'm going to repeat it for you again:
1. GOD SAYS THAT HOMOSEXUALITY IS WRONG AND THAT IT IS A SIN
2. YES, GOD ADDRESSES GAY MEN AND LESBIANS DISTINCTLY AS SINNING
3. JESUS NEVER "BLESSED" ANY UNION
OF A GAY SOLDIER AND A BOY
God absolutely CONDEMNS homosexuality as a sin EVERY TIME IT IS MENTIONED!
Leviticus 18:22 - You shall not lie with a male as with a woman.
It is an abomination.
Leviticus 20:13 - If a man lies with a male as he lies with a
woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to
death. Their blood shall be upon them.
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 - 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 homosexuals, nor
sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers,
nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom
of God .
Romans 1:26-28 - For this reason God gave them up to vile
passions. For even their
women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.
Likewise also the men,
leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men
with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves
the penalty of their error which was due. And even as they did not like to
retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do
those things which are not fitting;
And if that's not bad enough, God even tells us that those who
would SUPPORT the homosexual agenda are also in big trouble with him too!
Romans 1:32 - Though they know God's decree that those who
practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give
approval to those who practice them.
It's one thing to be TOLERANT of things. It's another to
push God's Word aside in favor of your own thoughts, feelings and interpretations... To those of you I'll call "confused christians", your feelings are irrelevant when they contradict what God has to say on the matter.
In case you're not aware (I've been teaching this extensively),
there are an estimated 38,000 Christian Denominations -- Each one it's own
RELIGION. Like it or not, "Liberal Christianity" is something
that's become increasingly shoved into our faces over the last 5 years or so.
They teach that Jesus loved everybody equally and he is accepting of any
and all ways that we have, that he understands and accepts us for who we are
and there's nothing wrong with what you do, as long as you're happy and don't
hurt anyone while you're doing it". Well what Bible do we get this
from? Is that out of the original Hebrew or Greek? Perhaps it's in
the Aramaic? Maybe we can derive this from the Latin Vulgate? No,
no, no AND no. It's not in the Bible. Never has been and never will
be.
God goes out of His way to express for us in the most clear and
concise way possible, to let us know what He deems to be a SIN and tells us in
no uncertain terms that PERFORMING HOMOSEXUAL ACTS IS SINFUL BEHAVIOR.
The solution to this problem (and the CORRECTION to the false
teachings) can be found in the clear words of Paul in the book of Galatians:
Galatians 5:16-25 - I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you
shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts
against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to
one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led
by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are
evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry,
sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish
ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and
the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past,
that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. But
the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ's
have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the
Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
And that last underlined verse answers the next part of this puzzle...
"Should practicing homosexuals be allowed into our churches, should they be allowed to fellowship with the "weak sheep" and should they be allowed to get married to other practicing homosexuals?"
"Should practicing homosexuals be allowed into our churches, should they be allowed to fellowship with the "weak sheep" and should they be allowed to get married to other practicing homosexuals?"
I don't know how to be more clear about this, so let me be even clearer with the answer...
If you are a "practicing homosexual", meaning that you happily and willingly have relations with a member of your own gender, then how can you even THINK that you're saved? God tells us to REPENT AND SIN NO MORE. Sure, sin still happens, but the question is, "are you sinning on purpose?" If you are an unrepentant sinner, then NO, you should not be allowed to fellowship with the "weak sheep", you should not be permitted to fellowship with REPENTANT members of the Church. GOD SAYS SO HIMSELF...
2 Corinthians 6:17 - Therefore "Come out from among them And
be separate, says the Lord."...
Don't you know that the word SANCTIFICATION actually means to
"become separate"? If God has not sanctified you (separated you
for Himself), then how can you claim to be a disciple of Jesus Christ?
How can you claim to be a Christian? Indeed, how can you claim to
be saved?
And then of course we go back to "A loving god wouldn't agree
with you Pastor Keith!". Really? Is that what you think of
God? Your "god" apparently doesn't have moral absolutes.
The God of the Bible does. What's a "moral absolute"?
It means that morality is something that is not subject to change.
In other words, God wouldn't say in Leviticus that homosexual behavior is
an abomination and then say in another book something like "homosexuality
is equal to any other form of love".
And don't think for one second that I don't realize what I'm
telling you is POLITICALLY INCORRECT. It is however BIBLICALLY CORRECT
and to be honest, I know which one I prefer. The more politically correct
viewpoint would be something like "there's nothing wrong with two people
just loving each other. Besides, doesn't God tell us not to be
judgmental?" See, that question can only be asked when the "god"
you worship doesn't have moral absolutes. The homosexuals and their
supporters want to convince you that their behavior should be
"normalized", and they'll use things like "society",
"common sense" and "basic human rights" as a means to get
you to agree with them.
So what's the answer? Look... "Society"
doesn't always get it right. The majority of Nazi Germany agreed with
Adolf Hitler (and not by force). So what "society" believes
isn't really worth anything. As for "common sense", what do I
know? To me, it's common sense to flush the toilet when you're finished,
but walk into any public restroom on any given day and you'll see something
that shouldn't be there. So "common sense" doesn't mean too
much either. So what about "basic rights"? Well, as far
as I can tell, we all have basic human rights in the United States . It would seem
to me that the homosexuals are looking for SPECIAL RIGHTS that protect their
unholy and vile passions. And that's the part that upsets me.
Think about it like this... If tomorrow, the "Tea
Party" comes out and says something like, "Our group is the only
group still in existence in the United
States that still believe in the values that
our founding fathers had in mind when they formed this country. Because
of this fact, we want only politicians in office who believe as our founding
fathers did and we want our ideas to not only be included, but also accepted."
Yeah, that would go over really well, right? Liberals just love the
Tea Party, right? No, they don't and it would NOT go over very well.
I can't make this any easier, The liberals want laws passed that protect
peoples sexual behaviors and to redefine marriage and then require that
everyone else accept it.
And you know what that means right?
Well, it means that homosexuality is now being
promoted (and has been for a few years) in schools, TV, and
movies as "normal" and "healthy" behavior and a
"lifestyle choice".
So what does this mean for our children?
Well, if you're letting society and the public school system be in
charge of your kids, then you can look forward to a new generation of children
that only thinks about how to satisfy their lusts and that either doesn't
believe in God at all, or has created a "god" of their own, that is
accepting of who they are. Trust me, this isn't speculation, it's already
happening all around us!
And that brings me back around to politics. I see all of
these different "groups" banding together around certain things and
then it SHOCKS ME, to see that their political leanings don't match their
values. This happens, because so many people don't understand the political
landscape in the United
States . Here's a quick and easy guide
to help you understand it.
1. If you value GOD over everything else, you're a conservative,
not a liberal.
2. If you value the traditional FAMILY, a group that must contain a
MOTHER and a FATHER and possibly some children, then you're a conservative, not
a liberal.
3. If you believe that the government is there to SERVE US and not
us to SERVE THEM, you're a conservative, not a liberal.
4. If you believe that the Constitution of the United States is
the most perfect governmental document ever created by any country since the
creation of the world and that fact is proven by the fact that it has lasted
longer and stood the test of time longer than anyone else's in history and it
remains so, BECAUSE IT DOES NOT CHANGE, then you are a conservative, not a
liberal.
5. If you believe that it's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to take care of
your family, then you're a conservative, not a liberal.
6. If you believe that every single individual has and SHOULD HAVE
the right to fail or succeed based on their own abilities and merits, then
you're a conservative, not a liberal.
7. If you believe that you have a right to privacy and that the
government has made it so that just about everything about you is public
information and you don't like that, then you're a conservative, not a liberal.
So if you're on the opposite side of any of the above items, then
you're a liberal.
In future elections PLEASE vote for the CORRECT candidate!
Oh yeah, that reminds me...
SOCIAL JUSTICE IS NOT A BIBLICAL OR GODLY CONCEPT. As a
matter of fact, most of you have NO IDEA WHAT SOCIAL JUSTICE (as experienced in
the United States) MEANS...
And the liberals don't want you to know! Well I know and I'm going
to tell you now....
Social Justice (in the United States) - The idea that the Rich White Men in the United States have lived very
well for the past 200 or so years and now it would be only JUST to TAKE THAT
AWAY FROM THEM and GIVE IT to other ETHNIC GROUPS. For more on this
subject, see Payback for being held back, payback for glass ceilings, payback
for slavery, payback for land theft, payback for not being White.
If you are in support of social justice, you clearly don't put God
or His Word first. Because that whole concept CAN NOT BE FOUND ANYWHERE
IN SCRIPTURE! As a matter of fact, The Bible says the opposite...
Romans 12:19 - Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give
place to wrath; for it is written, "Vengeance is Mine, I will repay," says the Lord.
Trust me, if any of those things listed as "payback" are
indeed outside of God's Will, He will take care of it FOR YOU.
Trust me, if I ever ran for President of the United States ,
I think that I'd probably lose. I'd lose not because I'm uneducated
(which I am not), not because I'm a Christian and not because I'm a Pastor, I'd
lose because I'd care LESS about how everyone had different opinions and ideas
and MORE about doing the RIGHT THING. You
see, that's what a TRUE LEADER does. A
true leader doesn't do and say things that are popular. A true leader doesn't do or say things that
will make people love him. A true leader
is TASKED with making the tough decisions. Decisions that aren't always popular, but need
to be made in order to get his people where he needs them to be!
Anyone born before 1963 KNOWS that the things that I write to you
are true. It's not so today. What was known as fact has become
unpopular. What was known as fact has become suspect. What was
known as fact has been discredited in order to make room for the ideas and
aspirations of those who don't want to live under the rule of God.
Here's a letter written by Noah Webster (the creator of the
Webster's Dictionary) that sums up everything in this post nicely...
In my view, the Christian religion is the most important and one
of the first things in which all children, under a free government ought to be
instructed. . . .No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian
religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and
privileges of a free people…
Any system of education, therefore, which limits instruction to the arts and sciences and rejects the aids of religion in forming the characters of citizens, is essentially defective. . . .
An attempt to conduct the affairs of a free government with wisdom and impartiality, and to preserve the just rights of all classes of citizens, without the guidance of Divine precepts, will certainly end in disappointment. God is the supreme moral Governor of the world He has made, and as He Himself governs with perfect rectitude. He requires His rational creatures to govern themselves in like manner. If men will not submit to be controlled by His laws, He will punish them by the evils resulting from their own disobedience.
Webster, Noah, Letter to David McClure,
Make no mistake... And especially to the atheists reading, God IS in charge, even though you can't see him. Remember, we can't see gravity either. Should we say that gravity is superstition then?
To the people who would call themselves "Christians" who
disagree with what is in this post, I would have you SERIOUSLY check yourself,
before you say that I'm wrong. Read this next passage and tell me how you
fit into the equation:
Luke 14:25-33 - Now great multitudes went with Him. And He
turned and said to them, "If anyone comes to Me and does not
hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and
his own life also, he cannot be My disciple. And whoever does not bear his
cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple. For which of you, intending to
build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has
enough to finish it --- lest, after he has laid the foundation, and is not able
to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, saying, 'This man began to build
and was not able to finish'? Or what king, going to make war against another
king, does not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand
to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? Or else, while the
other is still a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks conditions of
peace. So likewise, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has cannot be
My disciple.
Allow me to simplify it for you, so that you are not confused...
1. Jesus is not talking about "hating" as if to DESPISE
your family members, He's drawing a comparison saying "In comparison to
how much you love your family, it should be AS IF you hated them, in comparison
to how much you LOVE ME. Also, in comparison to how much you love your
life and being alive, you should hate that in comparison to how much you LOVE
ME as well".
2. Jesus is not telling you that you need to "bear your
cross" inasmuch as you are crucified with nails through your wrists and
feet. He's telling you that you're going to have hardships and have
difficulty in the world if you choose to follow in His footsteps. (LOL, I can't
think of too many churches that are teaching this)
3. Jesus is not telling you to "forsake all that you
have" inasmuch as you "sell all of your possessions". He's
telling you that IF you're going to be His disciple, you should be WILLING TO
GIVE UP everything that is WORLDLY, in order to BETTER AND MORE FULLY FOLLOW
HIM.
This has been at the forefront of my Discipleship training for the
past 2 years and to date, has been the single biggest help in assisting NOMINAL
CHRISTIANS to discover that they've been using the name Christian in vain!
Remember all of the words in RED are right out of the mouth of God Himself.
Jesus says "IF YOU'RE NOT WILLING TO DO THESE THINGS AND PAY
THE PRICE, THEN YOU CAN NOT BE MY DISCIPLE".
What's the "price", you ask?
Matthew 10:22 - And
you will be hated by all for My name's sake. But he who endures
to the end will be saved.
Matthew 24:9 - Then
they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be
hated by all nations for My name's sake.
Does that match up with what you learned in church or about Jesus? Isn't it enlightening to actually SEE what
Jesus said for Himself? Isn't it
interesting to see that most Pastors are afraid to teach you the truth?
So I would then ask.... If you're not willing to do those
things, do you STILL believe that you're a Christian?
If you answer YES, then you're the single biggest reason for the
downfall of "civilization as we know it". Thanks for that.
It'll bring Jesus here sooner... :)
Matthew 24:42 - Watch therefore, for you do not know what
hour your Lord is coming.
So there you go...
It's time for those of you who don't agree with me to call me a bigot...
But am I really?
Let's see what Webster had to say about that word in 1828:
Bigot - A person who is obstinately and unreasonably wedded to a particular religious creed, opinion, practice or ritual. The word is sometimes used in an enlarged sense, for a person who is illiberally attached to any opinion, or system of belief.
There are 2 things I'd like to point out...
1. First of all, the fact that I appear to be "illiberally attached" to what I've shared with you today, could make you believe that I'm being a bigot...
2. So the question has to be asked... Am I being illiberally, obstinately and unreasonably wedded to what I've shared with you today?
LOL....
How could I be? See, you think that I'm sitting here in judgment, when all I'm doing is being the messenger! God is the one that has declared homosexuality to be a sin, NOT ME. With all of the "luke warm christians" out there, it's part of my responsibility as a Minister to share God's Word with you AS HE INTENDED IT TO BE UNDERSTOOD.
Revelation 3:14-16 - "And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write, 'These things says the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God: "I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth."
Remember what I said earlier, red letters equal the Words of Jesus HIMSELF. Does that sound like the made up, make believe "god" that many of you have created for yourself? You know, the one who only exists in your mind? You know, the one who accepts any and all ways?
For the nominal christians reading this, here are the 1st and 2nd commandments for your convenience:
Exodus 20:3-6 - You shall have no other gods before Me. " You shall not make for yourself a carved image --- any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
For those of you who supposedly love Him, don't you get it yet?
Sigh...
