I know I said I was going on a post hiatus but I was skimming through my subscribe sites this morning when I came upon this interesting one from Wintery Knight:
Robert Gagnon debates gay activist Jayne Ozanne on Bible vs homosexuality | WINTERY KNIGHT
In all honesty I don’t think I could listen to the audio from this debate. I was able to make it through WK’s summary and, holy smokes, this woman is not only delusional but also an agent of satan himself. She exhibits the worst traits of both the modern Western church and modern Western christian women all at once. Like many Western churches she “interprets” scripture to fit the mold of her feelings and modern Western culture. Reading through the summary you can see that she simply argues her point for the sake of argument and has zero desire to actually do any learning. These are exactly the same traits my wife exhibits, albeit in a more common realm for the christian woman: The headship of husbands, a favored subject churches and wives have decided to reinterpret.
Now I only mention women here because the subject is a woman, but plenty of men have jumped the train of modern reinterpretations, and this woman will be readily accepted by many compromised churches, most of which will be headed by men.
This is all just part and parcel of the church of the West, as a whole, loosening its standards. The more I think about it the more I attribute it to literature that is not the bible invading the church, but that’s a post for another day, after much more thought.
I would put it in a nutshell like this: “Fear of cancellation before fear of God. Always.”
That’s a fantastic nutshell, too, because its absolutely true! No one wants to be the odd man/woman out, so just go with the flow. You don’t have to feel uncomfortable amongst your peers, just in your prayer closet, but you can always read some book written by some guy/gal who can help that fade away too by justifying what makes you uncomfortable and turn it into a Godly virtue! Its the perfect setup!
Yeah but we have the Bible to strike back against these pagans.
We can say, the Bible clearly outlaws homosexuality, if you are not on board with that then that means one of the following:
1) you hate what the Bible says about homosexuality because you have not been born again, you are on Satans’ side in the war between God and Satan, you hate the holy and righteous word of God because it declares you to be a sinner who needs to repent IMMEDIATELY
2) you hate what the Bible says about homosexuality because whilst you are a Christian, you have foolishly allowed yourself to be corrupted by this wicked world which is pro homosexuality. God despises your compromise with the unbelieving world, repent or he will discipline you for your sin.
