“The state of Homosexuality and Perversion in America”
I know no one is going to comment on this topic but, I’m going to talk about it anyway. I'm truly bugging out over some of the bull CRAP I’ve been subjective to this past week. First of all, my phone was blowing off the hook regarding the recent “Meet the Faith” show on BET concerning “Men on the down low” and “homosexuality”. From the gay male author who appeared on the show to the coming out basketball star, John Amaechi. I didn’t see this broadcast of “Meet The faith” but was summons to BET’s web-blog concerning the show and this topic. I must say, a lot of people (Christians especially); was heated with the “so called” Prophet, who was suppose to thoroughly represent the church, who DID NOT! From some of the statements I've read, and according to what I was told; this prophet could not and did not refer to one scripture from the KJV of the Bible and stuck with one comment which was, “Sex outside of marriage is a sin”. My one source was so disgusted, he couldn’t watch the conclusion of the show.
Then on CNN’s broadcast, they were highlighting; “Homosexuality in America”. This segment included Bishop Carlton Pearson who wants to “rewrite the theology of the charismatic world” by preaching a “Gospel of Inclusion” asserting that Christ’s death conclusively reconciled all mankind to God — whether we realize it or not — and that the only separation between man and God’s grace is subjective, illusionary, and exists only in unenlightened minds. Due to Pearson’s theological paradigm shift — popular among the pagan-set — he’s now getting national media attention. But Carlton’s agenda now is driven by his aberrant theology, and it’s insidious. It’s not that he’s deviously helping, say, the homosexual repent, of his sins in order to get right with God. No, that’s not necessary any longer. What Carlton wants to see is, homosexual leaders infiltrating Evangelical churches in order to corrupt them: Pearson said, “He hoped gay leaders would ‘build silent bridges’ by joining the staff of ‘heterosexual churches’ and gradually convincing them to accept the gay lifestyle”? I was shocked and appalled. Bishop Pearson further stated, “He reconsidered the gospel that he was preaching concerning damnation for the sin of homosexuality; because his best friend told him that he was gay, and he wasn’t going to just cast him into the lake of fire”.
Then on fox news the following day, their segment included a homosexual student who wants to maybe sue his school, plus insist on an apology by its board, because a photo of him kissing his boyfriend in the mouth was blacked out of the school’s yearbook. Please, this is not only inappropriate for two males, but it would be just as inappropriate and disrespectful if it were a male and female. There should have been policies, guidelines and procedures in place; regarding what the school was going to accept, and support in the form of payment and exposure.
While I am truly overwhelmed by these subjects, I feel America and society are doing a good job of shoving "homosexuality", "the down low" and the state of this issue, down our throats. And individuals, who live this type of (homosexual) lifestyle, feel as though they are being judged by Christians and the church. While these judgments’ are often supported by scripture, I won't refer to any here, but will leave a couple for you to read, if you so choose too. I just want to address this “judgment” issue because this word is used a lot, especially in defending the homosexual lifestyle. The church is supposed to speak out against such issues; for silence gives consent, when the scriptures clearly state for the Christian believer; “You are the salt of the earth; you are the light of the world; a city that is set on a hill cannot be hid; neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel but give light unto all that are in the house” (Matthew 13-15). Surely not by demonstrating hate toward an individual but a hate for the sin. Homosexuality is one of the biggest tricks of the enemy, deviously calculated to destroy God’s purpose for man and woman. I won’t just say that, “God created Adam and Eve, NOT Adam and Steve” but without a man and a woman pro-creation is impossible and anything outside of that; is not natural, real or ecological. And there are those who believe that deliverance from a homosexual lifestyle is “bullshit” when this is the way one chooses to live; if this is the case then homosexual individuals choose to live and practice a perverted truth. Yes, their truth becomes perverted because they have distained, distorted, changed, and misrepresented the gender God created them in the wound. That is why it states in Jeremiah chapter 1:5; “before I formed thee in the belly, I knew thee; and before you came out of the womb, I sanctified thee”. This is why, you have the woman trying to look and dress like a man and the man trying to look and dress like a woman, its PERVERSION! This is why you have woman trying to bop and man trying to switch, it’s PERVERSION! The man in this lifestyle, imitate the animated characteristics of a female and the female, the male; it's PERVERSION! That spirit of homosexuality is trying to distort what God created. I can get real graphic in this teaching here but I won’t. This so called “down low” is a deep seed of confusion for the man because he wants to live this double-sided freakish nature, unsatisfied and or un-connected with the cohesiveness of contact in a natural act. And who better for the enemy to use as an example than author Terry Macmillan’s husband, because Terry Macmillan holds the audience of a million readers, the majority, being female. The devil wanted to falsify her groove by debasing her union and infiltrating her mate. These types of lifestyles are dully supported by scripture but lack a serious misunderstanding with interpretation. The principalities of this world are deep, with this “down low” state of existence, because the enemy’s goal is to influence man in acting out with such actions through his thoughts and imagination.
So... I’ve heard many acts of defense regarding the homosexual lifestyle, one being that, it is defined in the Old Testament under the old covenant and does not apply now, but uh ah, it is also defined in the New Testament for the new now. I was taught that; all scripture is inspired by God, and is profitable for correction, instruction and for righteousness; and that we are saved by faith, and that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. Once you hear the truth, the truth is what God holds you accountable for. It’s easy to quote scripture in order to condemn one’s lifestyle but it’s not about that; it’s about being wise and productive, and praying that when the truth (which is the Word of God) is heard, it is clearly understood, and through prayer it is fully received, in order for deliverance to permeate a homosexual lifestyle.
I touch on this subject briefly in my book “Conversations Of A SISTAH” The Truth And The Myth About Praying For A Mate; when I was asked by this one producer (who had read my book), if I was homophobic? I thought this was a really strong question, especially since the definition means; hatred and or a fear of homosexuals. One can only hate what they don’t fully understand, and I had the teaching on the subject of homosexuality many years ago, when the revelation simply blew my mind. And when my mentor taught on this subject then, it was not as popular and in ya face as it is now. I don’t hate homosexuals, I just know the truth; and the truth will always be supported by accuracy, reality and fact. When I taught on this subject in a seminar/workshop last year; many women were delivered and set free from a homosexual lifestyle; they became aware of the truth; I simply dispelled all of their myths. It was not a popular seminar but neither is the truth. And the reason the media continue to debate the subject of homosexuality, is because they’re looking for something new, they're looking for something different, but the Truth, the Word and the Light will always remain the same; today, tomorrow, next month, next year and forever more.
What’s your truth regarding homosexuality? I’d like to know....
Tonight as I watch “ROOTS” on TV ONE I am saddened. I see what black people had to go through in this country. I watch White Christians kill and lynch in the name of Jesus. I see them rape black women but use the Bible as a reason not to marry a black woman.
In the late 1800s I saw slave masters disown their or mixed babies because they were different…you know different, not white. In 2007 I see black families disown their “Gay” black babies in the name of a fictional fairytale written by the white man long before slaves were brought from Africa.
I see these same ignorant Negroes in the south of our nation today standing shoulder to shoulder with the white people they claim to hate so much, on the subject of homosexuality. They “VOTE” to keep marriage between a man and a woman. They vote!!! You know vote, the thing that about 150 years ago blacks weren’t allowed to do per the white man. Now that Negroes can vote, they vote to oppress yet another minority…the gay minority. And yet these Negroes vote with pride to oppress another minority because they’re different, you know Gay… that kind of different. The same way whites oppressed blacks during slavery for being different, you know Black… that kind of different.
So the white people taught the black people about Christianity and the Bible….and then used it against them to keep black people oppressed. Now in 2007 its the black peoples turn to play master and use the very tool that was used against them…the holy white man’s Bible…to oppress yet another minority.
