Homosexuality: What I Believe God Says About It

BLOG DATE JULY 30TH 2007

By Darlene Osborne

First, I want to say that I hope all that read this had a wonderful weekend. It has been cloudy and rainy around here lately but I think the sun is trying to shine today.

It’s Monday, the beginning of another work-week for many of you out there and it’s also time for me to get busy on the magazine. The new issue is due out later this week. If you’ve never visited our magazine I hope you’ll take the time to do that soon. http://www.TheChristianOnlineMagazine.Com

I wrote an article for our July issue and it seems to have caused quite a stir on the net. The title of the article is, Has God Changed His Mind About Homosexuality? I have received hate mail from those who don’t agree with me but I have also received letters of support from those who do agree with me. What I wrote came straight from the Bible. One email I got from the opposing side wasn't very kind. But hey, I count it all joy.

Did you know that many believe they can be a Christian, go to church, and live in a gay lifestyle all at the same time because everyone is going to Heaven in the end anyway? I say to those that believe that, oh really? Well then tell me what this scripture means? 1st Corinthians 6:9 says, Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind. Verse 10, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. Also read Galatians 5:19-21. Be sure to read Romans Chapter 1.

Listen folks, gay people need to be saved just as much as the drunk down the road needs to be saved. And if they are going to call themselves Christians, they need to turn away from the gay lifestyle. There is no sugar coating this thing. And that is what is scaring me the most. Many are sugar coating it! Many pastors are saying, come to our church where it's okay to be gay. Well, don't believe it. It may be okay to be a gay Christian in the world's eyes but it's not okay in God's eyes.

To the gays who are really wanting to know the truth. Please accept Jesus as your personal Savior. Receive Him into your hearts by faith and read His Word for yourself. God loves you! But he wants you to follow His commandments and not the commandments of men.

There is no gay bashing here. Only the truth being told. It's all in the Bible.

I said it, and you read it here, at Darlene Osborne’s Blog.
