“HILLSONG COM OUT IN SUPPORT OF ACTIVELY GAY CHRISTIANS”
It’s cril to note, that Ted Haggard is a homosexual pastor, but perhaps wasn’t when Chris Hodg was trag unr him. Still Chris Hodg was fond of g this relatnship to advance his own credibily until 2006 when he (Haggard) was volved a homosexual sex sndal. It is tertg that many Christians take lerally the referenc to homosexual acts, while terpretg other text wh great flexibily.
The biblil thors were referrg to homosexual acts performed by persons they assumed were heterosexuals. A chief text ed to nmn homosexualy is the Sodom story (Genis 19:1-29), often terpreted as showg God’s abhorrence of homosexualy. It should be noted that not all of the men of Sodom uld have been homosexual or there would have been no need to stroy them.
Although the tradnal terpretatn of the Sodom story fails as an argument agast homosexualy, there are several other Old Ttament passag that do nmn homosexual acts. Aga, should be noted that the passag do not al wh same-sex orientatn nor is there any reference to genal love between lbian or gay persons.
TOP EUROPEAN RDAL: CHURCH TEACHG ON GAY PEOPLE ‘NO LONGER RRECT’
Of thoands of Old Ttament passag, only two make explic reference to homosexual acts: Levic 18:22 and Levic 20:13.
Ironilly, though, his book, The Unhappy Gay, the Levil laws are one of the chief rnerston of his arguments.
The Bible never addrs the issue of homosexual love, yet do have several betiful exampl of same-sex love. This ought to strike as very odd light of the great threat to Christiany, fay life and the Amerin way that some would have believe homosexualy is.
