The words sound off with so many bells and alarms going off like a nuclear bomb headed for the area. God’s wake-up call for the many evil hearts of the world, their desires and the burning lusts that resound inside the human flesh is to repent and come to Him. Even with such strong arguments as these, many who are of the blind world will not see but change the text to fit the personal’s lusts for today’s culture. For instance, it is said in many homosexual circles that Sodom and Gamora was about violent rape and orgies and God is against violent rape and unconsented sex but that He wants love expressed between two people who want to express themselves not only in physical sex, but with the love that two people, any two people, carry with them…show more content… The one who is the confused is not of the Light, but portrays to the wicked world, “And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light” (2 Cor. 11:14 NASB). This wicked world is in need of strong, mature Christians to make aware the ways of the devil, “in order that Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes” (2 Cor. 2:11 NASB). “The sounds of the world that cannot see truth or refuses to see it, believe that homosexuality is a status and not a behavioral issue.” “The status is that everyone is what they feel, and no one can judge. Of course, as a world living in the opposite of truth, it misses the truth of behavioral issues as the main point.”
From the beginning, in the garden, Satan asks a question, and it is the question that mankind has been asking ever since; “Now the serpent was more-crafty than any of the wild animals the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God really say, 'You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?" (Gen. 3:1 NIV). So, the mixing of the black and white lines of truth become grey and the question appears again in this day and time, “Did God really…show more content… It has, in some churches, shut the outside world out and put the church people tightly secure inside as to not be touched by the sins of the world. This is the wrong attitude, as each person must be presented with the good news of the Gospel and an understanding that people living in sin are in need of relationships to draw them to the Living Water as they thirst.
For a Born-Again Believer, it is to know right from wrong and present the truth to the world as Jesus did, surrender self, go, follow Him. Instead, the church has received such a back lash because of this stereo-typing that it feels that it has to except the sin with the sinner and allow people to live openly in sin. Michael L. Brown, PhD, in his book “Can You Be Gay and Christian?” speaks on the issue of how teenagers, from the ages of sixteen and nineteen, viewed the church. It states that “91% of those interviewed thought of church as ‘Antihomosexual’ and not only them but 80% of churchgoers did as well.” Could this be true? Is the church the reason young people are committing suicide? It seems that the truth, as spoken in scripture, is that a sin that festers and is allowed, will draw an agitation from Satan or his demons. Paul even mentions it as the thorn in his side in 2 Cor.
