In essence, we have become a culture who now worships itself as God, not only in mind and body, but also in destiny and purpose.
Many sanction this new “religion” through feeling and experience by pronouncing all truth to be relative.
We are a people driven, controlled and consumed by our feelings.
Very often, truth becomes established according to our experiences. Self-obsession and rebellion against the rule of God has blinded many.
Faithful followers of Christ Jesus are commanded to “come out from among these rebellious people” (2 Corinthians 6:17-18).
Believe it or not, we do not have to respond to every feeling or emotion that comes along. Experience must always be subservient to the principles outlined in God’s Word.
Often, very often, after our radio broadcast, or content offered and posted to our web site or Facebook, the His Way Out Ministries office phone rings off the hook. Members of the LGBT community (if not gay activists) call to log their displeasure regarding the content of our articles, broadcasts, and more specifically the message and position of His Way Out Ministries.
Frequently, calls began with, “I’m a Christian. I go to church.”
Admittedly, each incoming call takes a bit for me to finally jump in and offer a reply (if you know what I mean?).
Seizing the moment to jump in between the caller’s last statement and taking a breath, I ask, “Can you offer a Scripture which clearly defines homosexual practice as being OK with God?”
Each time, the immediate response has been and continues to be, “No, there are none!” My reply?
“Did you hear what you just said?”
I have been very fortunate to have met many men and women who have emerged from homosexuality. When I view and consider the personal difficulties they have had to face, the incredible courage they have displayed not only in facing many difficulties but also in confronting a culture that too often uses every opportunity to deny the validity of their values, goals and experiences, I stand back in awe.
In my opinion, it is these men and women, former homosexuals and those still struggling, who present a model of everything good and possible in Christ Jesus.
Today, the battle that rages, is not over just a person’s sexuality, but rather over which spirit will claim that person’s allegiance. There is no doubt, the cultural and political battle over homosexuality has become in many respects the defining moment for our society.
The more important aspect of this battle is not the political one; it is the one for the individual human soul.
“Love, and the unity it attests to, is the mark Christ gave to Christians to wear before the world. Only with this mark may the world know that Christians are indeed Christians, and that Jesus was sent by the Father.” – Francis Schaeffer
By speaking truth, you can impact and change the future for many.
Be a professing Christian who adheres to and applies the truths of Scripture to our world as never before.
