Why Homosexuality Today Is Not Just Another Sin

Flag in SF Gay Pride Parade shows the intent of today's gays
If homosexuality was still just a shameful secret then it could be treated like other sexual sins like adultery and fornication as many Christians still believe. They say, “It's just another sin. Pray for them and quit picking on homosexuals like it is a worse sin than others.” Such an attitude is naive and dangerous. With a false sense of love it overlooks the widespread danger of a movement not just a personal sin. Such a view refuses to see not only the sweeping changes that the homosexual movement wishes to push upon our nation and our families but also ignores the peril the individual homosexual is in. There is no love in refusing to warn the sinner that he will face judgment if he refuses to repent. How much more the homosexual who not only will suffer for eternity but will also suffer so much in this life.

Over the course of the next few weeks I will give several reason why Homosexuality is not “Just another sin.” First we need to understand that homosexuality today is not just a sin but is a movement that must be opposed before it changes everything about our nation, families and churches.

  1. It is a movement against God's Word, God's Churches and God's People
Homosexuality in our nation today has moved from being a sin that no one talked about to one that marches in parades and parades in the corridors of congress. Homosexuals wear their sin proudly and often delight in rubbing it in the face of those who find their immorality shameful and degrading. It is not a personal sin like adultery or pornography that is hidden in secret away, but instead delights in strutting publicly and then daring you to say anything against it.

How many these lost young men came from Christian homes?
Most major cities have Gay Pride days and parades, amusement parks like Disneyland have Gay Days even President Obama, who refused to allow the National Day of Prayer Breakfast in the White House, welcomed homosexual and transgender advocates into the Oval Office in honor of Homosexual rights and to bring attention to the cause of same sex marriage.

The Hate Crimes law has been amended to include speaking out against homosexuals, this means that pastors and churches who dare to speak out against sexual immorality can be prosecuted for their “hate.” Those who passed the new Hate Crime Law say that churches have been exempted but that was a ploy to get the law on the books. The same kind of laws with the same kind of exemptions were passed in Canada and Britain and have now been used to shut down pastors and churches who dared to speak out in opposition. Even in the United States individual Christians are being sued because they spoke out or if they run a business like a Bed and Breakfast and refuse to allow homosexual immorality in their home they are being dragged into court. It is only a matter of time until the first persecution against a church in this country is brought. Even if the lawsuit is unsuccessful the cost and time it takes to fight the suit, will send a message that simply says, “We're here, we're queer and you better steer clear.”

Homosexuality as practiced in America today is a Godless political and social movement like other national movement of the past such as Communism, Socialism, Atheism or Humanism. It is determined to not only be accepted legally and socially, but to also shut down and out shout anyone who dares to disagree with it. How can real Christians not stand in opposition? It is not picking out a sin we don't like, it is fighting for a life that is under threat. If the homosexual advocates are successful God's word will be banned and His churches prevented from preaching the truth about sexual perversion and your children will be exposed to homosexual indoctrination in all public schools. Much more is at stake than not wanting to offend a gay friend or relative. Wake up or realize too late that that steamroller than just ran over everything you love and believe in was painted like a rainbow.
