GOD LOVES "GAYS"

Without question, the most famous quotation in the
Bible is John, chapter 3, verse 16. We often witness
this reference at sporting events on signs that
spectators display to get others' attention. I'm not
sure that everyone watching knows exactly what
that passage of Scripture says, but for our purpose
here, I quote - "For God so loved the world that He
gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes
in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.".

In a nutshell, these words of Jesus about himself are
encouraging every one of us to know the love of the
Father who devised the great PLAN OF SALVATION
whereby we can be assured of forgiveness of our
sins, acceptance into God's eternal family, a life of
"sinlessness", and the promise of living eternally in
God's planned Kingdom! WOW! That's great!

You and I, friend, can have all of the wrongs of our
pasts erased and forgotten, and we can receive the
enablement to live better, quieter, more peaceful,
and guilt-free lives! WOW! That's great!

I BELIEVE THAT THE HOLY BIBLE IS THE WORD
OF GOD, GIVEN TO MANKIND BY INSPIRATION OF
THE HOLY SPIRIT, 3RD MEMBER OF THE GODHEAD,
FOR THE PURPOSE OF SHOWING US GOD'S PERFECT
PLAN FOR YOU AND ME!

What we know about the beginning of creation and
time as our race knows it, is that God made us male
and female, "in His image", and "after His likeness".
Despite the "fall" of Satan (Lucifer) from Heaven and
from God's grace, we have had put into effect for us
the way back into God's graces and blessings!

The Bible (Holy Scripture) says nothing about a
third or fourth gender being created by God. "Male"
and "Female" are how we began, and we were instructed
to populate and replenish the earth with offspring. In
other words, be married in holy matrimony to one of
the "opposite sex", have children, and raise (rear) a
family according to the laws and ordinances of God!
That in no way means that those who cannot or who
choose not to have children are incurring the
displeasure of God, or that those who choose to
remain celibate (such as priests) are wrong, rather,
as the Bible says, they can concentrate more on living
"the Godlife" in those states.

Scripture is replete with warnings and admonitions
against "turning the proper use of our bodies" to
other than God's original purpose and plan.

DOES GOD LOVE GAYS? YES!
Does He approve of their lifestyles? NO!
Are there those, both "churched" and "unchurched"
who claim that they are God's just as much as any
others? Yes. But their rationale is shoddy, to put it
kindly, and their belief that God will welcome into
Heaven those who choose to live contrary to His
plan, lacks merit.

HOW DO GAYS BECOME "GAY"? I propose a number
of factors, many or all of which have already been
advanced by others more schooled and knowledgeable
than myself, but I do so with compassion, and a longing
to see others "come into the light" and be God's child
in the truest sense of the word - by spiritual rebirth!

NEED I GO ON? The issue is not that God does
or does not love people, but that HE DOES NOT
CONDONE THEIR SINS OR SINFUL WAYS OF LIVING!
God says, "Whatever a (person) sows, he/she also reaps."

GOD LOVES YOU, FRIEND, AND IF YOU ARE
INVOLVED IN ANY ACTIVITY THAT IS WRONG, HE
WILL FORGIVE YOU (IF YOU ASK HIM TO), CLEAN
YOUR SLATE, AND GIVE YOU THE POWER TO LIVE
A LIFE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HOLINESS!!

Jesus said, "Whoever comes to me I will not refuse."
Again, "He who the Son sets FREE is FREE INDEED."
Still, "You shall know THE TRUTH, and THE TRUTH
WILL SET YOU FREE."
And He says, "I am the WAY, the TRUTH, and the
LIFE."

Come to Jesus Christ today, friend. Accept His
finished sacrifice on the Cross of Calvary for your
sins and mine. LET HIM MAKE YOU A NEW CREATION!

The Bible says, "If anyone be in Christ, he/she is a
NEW CREATION, old things (ways) have passed away,
YES, and ALL THINGS have become NEW."
I pray for you to become a "new creation" today.
GOD LOVES YOU AND SO DO I. Bill.

P.S. God's Word says "COME OUT" from among them
(sinners) and be separate." It's time to "come out"
for Jesus.
