WOULD YOU ATTEND A GAY WEDDG?
* desiring god gay wedding *
The apostle Pl said, “Do not be ceived: neher the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexualy, nor thiev, nor the greedy, nor dnkards, nor revilers, nor swdlers will her the kgdom of God” (1 Corthians 6:9–10).
WHAT TO SAY TO A PASTOR WHO WANTS TO OFFICIATE A GAY WEDDG
If a loved one tells you he’s gay, ask God to give you wise love, urageo clary, and prayerful endurance. * desiring god gay wedding *
That is why 1 Corthians 6:9–10 lists homosexual practice along wh others. Do not be ceived: neher the sexually immoral [that is, fornitn, bee is distguished om the next two], nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexualy, nor thiev, nor the greedy, nor dnkards, nor revilers, nor swdlers will her the kgdom of God. There are those who experimented wh homosexual acts for a season — maybe they were prison, maybe they were a teenager — and don’t anymore, and there are those who celebrate and pursue as normal.
Pl’s pot is that if you embrace adultery as good and normal, or if you embrace stealg as good and normal, or if you embrace greed as good and normal, or if you embrace dnkenns as good and normal, or if you embrace homosexual terurse as good and normal, you will not enter the kgdom of heaven. J died so that heterosexual and homosexual sners might be saved. For those who have forsaken God’s path of sexual fulfillment, and walked to homosexual terurse or heterosexual extramaral fornitn or adultery, J offers astonishg mercy.
SHOULD A GAY COUPLE, ONCE CONVERTED, STAY ‘MARRIED’?
“What’s new is the normalizatn and stutnalizatn of homosexual behavr. Alongsi s cleart explanatn of the s of homosexual terurse (Romans 1:24–27) stands the dictment of the approval and stutnalizatn of . Though people know tuively that homosexual acts (along wh gossip, slanr, solence, hghts, boastg, fahlsns, heartlsns, thlsns) are s, “they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them” (Romans 1:29–32).
The new thg — new for Ameri, and new for history — is not homosexualy. What’s new is not even the celebratn and approval of homosexual s. Homosexual behavr has been exploed, and reveled , and celebrated art, for lennia.
But my qutn to you is this: Are we nsistent to not attend a homosexual weddg bee we do not affirm their sexual liftyle, yet be willg to attend a heterosexual weddg of unbelievers whose liftyle of premaral sex we also nnot affirm? Now, havg said all that, I thk is ordarily wrong to attend the ceremony of the so-lled gay marriage.
HOW DO YOU RELATE TO A GAY FAY MEMBER?
He’s talkg about fornitn, not jt homosexualy. No, I would not remend that two men or two women livg together, practicg homosexualy, rema that relatnship.
The unn of two men and two women is not gay marriage — ’s no marriage. I don’t like the ia that so many people are willg to e the term gay marriage stead of llg so-lled gay marriage, bee there is no such thg the universe as so-lled gay marriage.
A PECULIAR DISAPPROVAL OF GAY PRI
In other words, homosexual behavr is not wrong jt bee ’s mand that we don’t do . It’s not exactly the same issue when he rais alongsi homosexualy. “Mom and Dad, I’m gay.
In a world where submissn to God’s holy law is labeled “homophobia” and hate, how do we stand firm on the Bible’s clear teachg? The qutns take on add urgency when they e om arly loved fay members: whether an adult child who intifi as gay, or a fay member who stggl wh his genr — or even transns and then mands that you e a new name and new pronouns. Space don’t allow me to rehearse all of the biblil teachg related to the issu, but I would remend a few excellent books on homosexualy, transgenrism, and lovg LGBTQ+ people, as well as an article by biblil unselor Mike Emlet, “Five Mistry Prri for Those Stgglg wh Same-Sex Attractn.
