FIRST-PERSON: Y ED, GOD LOV GAYS
* god loves you in a gay way *
Some morn Bible translatns say that “homosexuals” will not her the kgdom of God, but neher the ncept nor the word for people wh exclive same-sex attractn existed before the late 19th century. While the Bible rejects ltful same-sex behavr, that’s very different om a nmnatn of all gay people and relatnships. Requirg that all gay people rema celibate is at odds wh the Bible’s teachgs on celibacy, which are ground Scripture’s re affirmatn that God’s physil creatn is good.

Mastream nomatns like Prbyterians and Epispalians now orda openly gay clergy, and there are seeds of change evangelil church as well.

They’re hearg pop culture and maybe even their schools that homosexualy is a perfectly legimate liftyle that not only should be tolerated but celebrated and explored.
