In March 2012, Matthew V posted a vio on YouTube suggtg that "beg gay is not a s, " and that the Bible "do not nmn, lovg, mted same-sex relatnships.

His aim is not to prent new rmatn, but to synthize gay-affirmg arguments and make them accsible for a broar and younger dience.

Six biblil passag directly addrs homosexualy, and V sists that none addrs same-sex orientatn as we know today. Pl Romans 1:26-27 is not referrg to monogamo, gay relatnships, but stead to ltful excs and the breakg of ctomary genr rol.

The tone of God and the Gay Christian is que different. Unlike others who advote rpectful dialogue on this divisive issue, V charg that those who do not affirm same-sex relatnships are sng by distortg the image of God and are sentially rponsible for the suicis of many gay Christians.

From this perspective, he says, one n still affirm gay relatnships. One of the ma weakns of God and the Gay Christian is that V's methodology of biblil terpretatn clash wh the high view of the Bible he claims to hold.

Like V, I also me out as a gay man while I was a stunt. Intertgly, a chapla gave me a book om a gay-affirmg thor, John Boswell, claimg that homosexualy is not a s. Like V, I was lookg for biblil jtifitn and wanted to prove that the Bible bls gay relatnships.

I pletely agree wh V that many gays, lbians, and other same-sex attracted people have stggled to rencile their fah and sexualy whout much help om the church. Some church are unwillg to talk about homosexualy, aaid that will open up a n of worms. Other church only talk about the immoraly of , while neglectg to discs how the transformative msage of the gospel is also for gays and lbians.

We are not ready to addrs the issue of homosexualy (or even sexualy general) if we have not first reemed biblil sglens. V lims the power of God by actually believg that there is no possibily for gays and lbians to marry someone of the oppose sex. We have failed to offer Christ to the gay and lbian muny.
