The Bible vers aren't about nmng homosexuals, gays, lbians, or transgenr people. Rather, read God's lovg warng and grace for those who have strayed om His will for sex * what if god is gay *
A mon argument for the acceptance of homosexualy and same-sex marriage is that, if God is love, He would not nmn the love of others. The world and maybe even our own sensivi might say that allowg others to live a homosexual relatnship is to see to their well-beg.
Romans 1:26 says homosexualy is disgraceful and dishonorg. First Corthians 6:18 says that sexual immoraly, cludg homosexualy, is a s agast one’s own body. If homosexualy rults a dishonorg, harmful separatn om God’s blsg, then the lovg thg to do is to stay away om .
WHAT DO GOD THK ABOUT GAY PEOPLE?
What if I told you God is gay? / Do you thk belligerent bible-belters / Would still holler hate speech to the hilltops / In His name? / Or do you thk they would reread the * what if god is gay *
That beg said, those wh homosexual attractns are sperate need of love. Even if they agree wh the Bible that homosexualy is a s and rolve not to seek fulfillment of their sexual sir, they mt still fd love other relatnships—the self-sacrificg love of agape and the iendly pannship of phileo.
The need for love is no different for sgle heterosexuals than is for those wh homosexual attractn. If God is love, why do He nmn homosexualy?
Pope Francis was recently asked about his views on homosexualy. Persons wh homosexual tennci are children of God. Crimalisg people wh homosexual tennci is an jtice.
10 REASONS GOD LOV GAY CHRISTIANS
* what if god is gay *
This isn’t the first time Pope Francis has shown himself to be a progrsive lear when to, among other thgs, gay Catholics. As a biblil scholar, I would suggt that church lears who e their cultur and theology to exclu homosexuals don’t read Scripture refully.
IS GOD BLACK AND GAY
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. * what if god is gay *
Those who would exclu homosexuals om God’s kgdom choose to ignore J, turng stead to the Old Ttament – most particularly to Genis 19, the stctn of the ci of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Their terpretatn of the story is that is about homosexualy. Levic 18:22 and 20:13, for example, are not about “homosexualy” as we now unrstand – as the rg, lovg and sexual relatnship between people of the same sex.
Christians – no matter which church they belong to – should follow Pl and extend to the heterosexual-homosexual distctn.
