So What Does The LORD Say About Homosexuality and Lesbianism?
Exactly one month ago on 17th April 2012, somebody wrote to me an e-mail about an issue that was bothering and troubling him so much. For purposes of privacy I would not disclose his name. This person did not mention to me from which country he was writing to me from but I had a feeling that he was writing from the USA. So what did he write to me about and what did he want to tell me in the e-mail? And did I get back to him? And so this is part of what he wrote to me about: "Please pray for me and all my children and especially for one of my daughters who is gay. I have talked to her about this too and it isn’t right and what GODs words say. But I feel the LORD wants me to talk to her again soon. SO please say a pray I say the right things to her about what GOD’S words say. It is so sad to say so many people do not understand or read GODs words to know what GOD wants us to do. I love my daughter so much and I do not want her to go to HELL either." I responded to him then in e-mail as follows: "Amen brother, May the grace of the LORD be with you. I will pray for you in the name of the LORD. And I will shortly send you a write up which I will pray over and write which I would like you to deliver to your daughter concerning the situation you have mentioned below." I thus want to respond to him today (17th May 2012) as I promised him then. And even though this is a response to him, may the LORD God Almighty (YAHWEH, JEHOVAH), The LORD Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit guide me in my heart as I talk/write today on the above subject that is currently going on as an international debate/discussion as I respond to him and also communicate the message to the whole of the earth. I will be mentioning names as I talk about this development because Him who is in me is greater than him who is in the world and I don’t fear him/her who can only destroy the flesh but I revere, honour, glorify, praise, worship Him who is the creater of heaven and earth, the King of the Universe and I fear Him who destroy both soul and body and can throw one in in hell, I fear Him who is the only key to Heaven: The LORD God Almighty, The LORD Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. For The fear of the Lord—that is wisdom, and to shun evil is understanding. The debate/discussion has been going on for quite some time albeit quietly. But a couple of days ago the USA Vice-President Joe Biden while being interviewed declared that He has no problem with gay couples having equal rights as married couples, and that gay marriage should be allowed and accepted. And picking from the queue, his boss the USA President Barrack Obama a few days later confirmed that His view on gay marriages has been "evolving" for some time and that he fully want gay marriages to be recognized and their rights entrenched. To show how serious he was, the USA President a few days later held a massive fundraiser amongst the gay participants where millions of USA dollars were raised. And to go even further the USA President even intimated that the Marriages act of 1996 which stipulated in the USA Federal law that a marriage is defined as between a man and a woman be looked a fresh with an aim of amending it to take into account the "evolving" view and the contemporary view of accepting gay marriage as acceptable in the society and thus embracing it and protecting it. And to put you further in the picture, there is a current proposal in the school system in the USA that parents should not insist to their children that being gay is wrong and unacceptable and that those parents who are found to be doing so will be liable to punishment. And infact the school system in the USA (and probably other parts of the world) are now teaching on the need to have civil rights and acceptance of gays in the society. The term gay refer to both Homosexuals and lesbians. And the whole world including the Christian leaders and other religious leaders are now involved in this debate/discussion and implementation of policies revolving around this issue. The UK recently made it very clear that it will cut back very significantly on funding or aiding African governments and other countries which do not put in place polices to embrace and accept homosexuals and lesbians in society. The Civil rights movements (Including Human rights and some civil societies) worldwide have of late been pushing for entrenching of the rights and recognition and embracing of the rights of the Homosexuals and lesbians. Leading musicians e.g. Lady gaga have sung songs to praise and encourage homosexuality and lesbianism such as "I Was born that way!!!". Musicians like Ricky Martin, the late Michael Jackson, Elton John e. t. c are known to be open gay musicians/singers. Even a book known as "gay Bible" has been introduced perpetuating the acceptance and embracing of Homosexuality and lesbianism and the gay marriage. And shockingly even some religious leaders like Reverend Jesse Jackson and Reverend Al Shapton e.t.c have called for the embracing and protection of the rights of Homosexuals and lesbians and going further to say "This is a bold step in the right direction for equal protection under the law for all citizens. And that preachers should address the issue with their congregation on Sundays." Pastor Joel Osteen, him of the prosperity gospel while being interviewed in a famous live show recently stated that he believes homosexuals and Lesbians go to heaven. Some homosexuals and lesbians have even been ordained as church leaders in some churches, no wonder Rev Jesse Jackson was recently quoted saying that "gays and lesbians are fighting for the country and teaching American’s children. And they are even leading congregations within many churches." I now understand when the LORD said in the book of Isaiah 5:20: "Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter." And also in the book of 2ndTimothy 4:3-5 "For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry." We have now heard and read from what the leader and deputy leader of the most successful country militarily and economically in the world has to say and also a host of other world leaders and governments concerning the issue of Homosexuality and Lesbianism. We have also heard, read and listened to what some preachers of the "Word" have said concerning the issue of Homosexuality and Lesbianism. We have also now heard and listened to what some of the Civil rights and human rights movements and society have to say concerning the issue of Homosexuality and Lesbianism. We have also heard, listened and read about what some musicians and singers have to say concerning the issue of homosexuality and lesbianism. But the question is what does the LORD God Almighty (YAHWEH, JEHOVAH, ELOHIM); Him who created heaven and earth; Him who created human beings; Him who sent His only begotten son to the earth that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life have to say about this issue of homosexuality and lesbianism ? This is the main aim of the conversation that me and you are having today. To start us off lets go to the book of Leviticus 18:22 "Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable". Homosexuality and lesbianism is an abomination, it’s thus detestable in the sight of the LORD.
The position of the LORD God Almighty has not changed regarding homosexuality and lesbianism, for the LORD is the same yesterday, today and forever. His position on this has not been "evolving". And so those human beings Including some religious leaders whose position on this issue has been "evolving", I have got news for you on what the LORD is about to do to you as stated in the book of Revelations 3:14-20 "These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God’s creation. I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I AM ABOUT TO SPIT YOU OUT OF MY MOUTH. You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see. Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent. Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me." SHALOM!!! PREPARE THE WAY IN ABSOLUTE REPENTANCE, TRUTH, RIGHTEOUSNESS, HOLINESS AND FULL SURRENDER TO THE LORD YAHUSHUA (JESUS CHRIST); TIME IS ABSOLUTELY OVER; THE MESSIAH JESUS CHRIST IS IMMINENTLY COMING TO PICK HIS BRIDE!!! REPENTANCE PRAYER Precious Jesus, I acknowledge today that you are lord and savior of all mankind, and today I have recognized my shortfall, I repent and turn away from all sin. Please cover me with your precious blood, and establish your word in my life, that I may be found in righteousness and holiness and write my name in your book of life and baptize me with the power of the Holy Spirit in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen. Shalom!!! Shalom!!! Shalom!!! Kevin Mirasi |
