Freedom March Orlando, September 14, 2019 [Freedom March is] a public pushback [sharing the message] that people can be free not only from homosexuality and transgender lives but from anything. That it is through the power of the Holy Spirit, and it’s through the grace of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. The heart of God for LGBTQ people […]
A half-truth masquerading as the whole truth becomes a complete untruth. —J. I. Packer— Key point: Influential pastor J. D. Greear recently posted an article on his blog titled “Three Ways We [in the Church] Go Wrong When Discussing Homosexuality.” Greear himself went wrong, however, in numerous statements he made in his article. It is vital […]
The whole truth is generally the ally of virtue; a half-truth is always the ally of some vice. —G. K. Chesterton— Key point: J. D. Greear’s sermon and blogpost on homosexuality are ominous for several reasons, not the least of which is the unbiblical direction they are taking Southern Baptists and the rest of the evangelical […]
J. D. Greear’s recent sermon on Romans 1:24-32, which he preached at his church on January 27, 2019, underscores the need for believers to know and uphold what the Bible says about homosexuality. Greear, after all, isn’t just a pastor, but also the current president of the Southern Baptist Convention. His words should have provided […]
The Gay Rights Movement Itself Shows Us Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some […]
The God of this world is riches, pleasure and pride. —Martin Luther— If I had only one sermon to preach it would be a sermon against pride. —G. K. Chesterton— Key point: The sin of pride is at the heart of all other sins. Remembering this when we look at the sin of homosexuality, we cannot […]
Nothing is so offensive to the unregenerate mind as a message of coming judgment for sin. But the chief reason is precisely that people involved are sinners. I fear for our world and its cities. On the whole, cities are noisy places. But I have gone out at night on a holiday weekend or on […]
At the last minute, on August 31, 2018, California Assemblyman Evan Low pulled AB 2943 from consideration in this year’s legislative session. Had it become law, this bill would have made it illegal to counsel or provide therapy for anyone wanting help to overcome unwanted same-sex attraction, in every instance where money was involved, such […]
Client Rights and Government Wrongs, Introduction Harm doesn’t come from a therapist who operates with compassion and a desire to help a client who is seeking help. Harm comes as a result of being told we have to live with these unwanted desires and have no hope of change! In my case, therapy was an […]
Our government is supposed to protect our First Amendment rights—freedom of religion and expression. But the government is telling me I can only be a faithful Christian within the four walls of my church. That’s impossible and it’s unjust. What would Rob and Curt say if the government told them they could only be who […]
In the public debate over same-sex marriage, advocates of natural marriage have defended God’s design for marriage in numerous ways. For example, we have talked about every child’s critical need for a mom and a dad. Sadly, divorce is real, and it leaves many kids without a mom or without a dad. Even so, in […]
The basic problem of the Christians in this country in the last eighty years or so… is that they have seen things in bits and pieces instead of totals. —Francis Schaeffer— Key point: Some might wonder why a Christian organization must hold unyieldingly to biblical tenets of marriage and sexuality when the world is so hostile […]
Marriage exists to bring a man and a woman together as husband and wife to be father and mother to any children their union produces. It is based on the anthropological truth that men and women are different and complementary, the biological fact that reproduction depends on a man and a woman, and the social […]
Borrowing from President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, we can say without hesitation or fear of overstatement that Friday, June 26, 2015—four years ago today—is a date which will live in infamy. On that day, five of the nine Supreme Court justices in the United States handed down what is perhaps the most outrageous and egregious […]
We call marriage a sacrament because it is a sign of God and His creation. It’s the definition of the word creation. We’ve got to restore this and teach it in the churches. We’ve got to take this simple little nugget of truth and build on it so that eventually we permeate public consciousness with […]
Marriage is what one man and one woman establish when, forsaking all others and pledging lifelong commitment, they found a sharing of life at every level of being—the biological, the emotional, the dispositional, the rational, the spiritual—on a commitment that is sealed, completed and actualized by loving sexual intercourse in which the spouses become one […]
