DO GAY PEOPLE GO TO HEAVEN?
When I started wrg my new book, God and the Gay Christian, I was well aware that Christians who oppose same-sex marriage the church have long ed the Bible to fend their pot of view. As a gay Christian om an evangelil church Kansas, that stat quo has had a damagg impact on my life, which is one reason I'm settg out to change the flty perspective. Here are 10 reasons why God accepts gay Christians. * god i am gay *
1 Timothy 1:9-11 “We also know that the law is ma not for the righteo but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sful, the unholy and irrelig, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murrers, for the sexually immoral, for those practicg homosexualy, for slave trars and liars and perjurers—and for whatever else is ntrary to the sound doctre that nforms to the gospel ncerng the glory of the blsed God, which he entsted to me. Pl was speakg to the Church of Corth and he said, “do not be ceived: neher the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexualy, 10 nor thiev, nor the greedy, nor dnkards, nor revilers, nor swdlers will her the kgdom of God.
Our Christian hearts, ns the (ually impassned) argument, pel to grant full moral and legal equaly to gay and lbian people; our Christian fah, the (ually impassned) rebuttal, pels to cleave, above all, to the word of God.
They assert that the Bible f all homosexual acts as sful, stcts them to exclu om full participatn the church all non-repentant sners (cludg gay people), and morally lls upon them to publicly (or at least rolutely) nounce homosexual acts. Whout an explic directive om God to exclu and nmn homosexuals, the Christian muny’s treatment of gay persons is clear vlatn of what J and the New Ttament wrers potedly intified as one-half of God’s most important mandment: to love one’s neighbor as one’s self.
“WHY DON’T GOD ANSWER PRAYERS TO TAKE AWAY GAY FEELGS?”
* god i am gay *
Heterosexual Christians are beg unbiblil by g the clobber passag as jtifitn for applyg absolute standards of moraly to homosexual “ss” that they themselv are not tempted to m, while at the same time acceptg for themselv a standard of relative moraly for those ss listed the clobber passag that they do routely m. If heterosexual Christians are obligated to look to the Bible to terme the sfulns of homosexual acts, how much greater is their obligatn to look to the Bible to terme the sfulns of their behavr toward gay persons, pecially light of the gay muny’s ll to them for jtice? Such Christians draw no moral distctn between the homosexual gang rape the story of Sodom and Gomorrah, the i to which Pl refers his letter to the Romans, the wild sexual abandon Pl addrs 1 Corthians, and nsensual homosexual sex between lovg and mted homosexual partners.
“HELP! I’M A GAY CHRISTIAN”
Do gay people go to heaven? Do beg gay have anythg to do wh termg one’s eternal sty? * god i am gay *
Heterosexual Christians are beg unfair and hypocril by g the clobber passag as jtifitn for applyg absolute standards of moraly (and an absolute penalty) to homosexual “ss” that they themselv are never tempted to m, while at the same time acceptg for themselv a standard of relative moraly (and applyg no real penalty) for those ss listed the clobber passag that they do routely m.
IS ANYONE BORN GAY?
As there is no monstrable harm arisg om sex wh a mted homosexual relatnship, and there is signifint monstrable harm arisg om the discrimatn agast and nmnatn of gay persons, what possible biblil basis n there be for not regnizg the vast moral differenc between sex acts done wh the ntext of a lovg mted relatnship, and sex acts of any other sort? We also know that the law is ma not for the righteo but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sful, the unholy and irrelig, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murrers, for the sexually immoral, for those practicg homosexualy, for slave trars and liars and perjurers—and for whatever else is ntrary to the sound doctre.
DEAR GOD, ARE YOU THERE? A GAY MAN’S PRAYER
The Bible’s clobber passag were wrten about same-sex acts between heterosexual persons, and do not addrs the subject of homosexual acts between a mted gay uple, bee the ncept of a person beg homosexual did not exist at the time the Bible was wrten.
It is cril to our readg of the New Ttament’s three clobber passag to unrstand that while Pl would have known about sex acts that took place between persons of the same genr, he would have had no ncept whatsoever of homosexual persons. Sexual relatns between persons of the same sex certaly did occur (they are wily attted ancient sourc), but they were not systematilly distguished or nceptualized as such, much ls were they thought to reprent a sgle, homogeneo phenomenon ntradistctn to sexual relatns between persons of different sex.
Taken all together, the evince—the social ntext which the Bible was wrten, the lack of the very ncept of gay people Pl’s time, the abily of gay people to marry, the equy between how the clobber passag are applied between a majory and a mory populatn, the jtice of excln om God’s church on earth and om human love as the punishment for a state of beg over which one has no choice—nclively shows that choosg to nmn and exclu gay people based on the Bible is the morally rrect choice.
