homosexuality
You shall not lie with a male as one who lies with a female; it is an abomination. (Leviticus 18:22)
Some churches are not only teaching that homosexuality is ok but are appointing homosexual priests and conducting same sex marriages. By teaching that homosexuality is ok they are deceiving people, the bible says it is not ok and no unrighteous person can inherit the kingdom of God!
The BIBLE IS VERY CLEAR that homosexuality is a gross sin.
the Sovereign Lord says;If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death (Leviticus 20:13)
The apostle Paul was one of the most successful and dedicated workers for the Lord. He knew what he was talking about, what does he say about it;Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God. (1Cor 6:9-10)
Sodom and Gomorrah: An example
The cities of Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed because of their wickedness. What was their wickedness?
(Genesis 19)
Now the two angels came to Sodom in the evening as Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. When Lot
saw them, he rose to meet them and bowed down with his face to the ground.
And he said, "Now behold, my lords, please turn aside into your servants house, and spend the night,
and wash your feet; then you may rise early and go on your way." They said however, "No but we shall
spend the night in the square."
Yet he urged them strongly; so they turned aside to him and entered his house; and he prepared a
feast for them, and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.
Before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, surrounded the house, both young and
old, all the people from every quarter
and they called to Lot and said to him, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out
to us that we may have relations with them."
But Lot went out to them at the doorway, and shut the door behind him,
and said, "Please, my brothers, do not act wickedly."
Just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, since they in the same way as these indulged in gross immorality and went after strange flesh, are exhibited as an example, in undergoing the punishment of eternal fire. (Jude 7)

The head of Episcopal diocese in Conneticut OKs blessings for same-sex unionsEpiscopal priests may give a pastoral blessing to same-sex unions in church ceremonies, the head of the diocese in Connecticut announced this weekend, reversing a long-standing policy.
Bishop Andrew Smith's decision does not allow Episcopal clergy to officiate at civil union ceremonies but permits priests, through a blessing ceremony in the church, to acknowledge gay and lesbian couples who have had a civil union granted by the state.
June 2006
USA - Newly elected leader of the U.S. Episcopal Church Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori said on Monday she believed homosexuality was no sin and homosexuals were created by God to love people of the same gender. Well, it doesn't matter what this lady believes. The bible is clear that homosexuality is a sin and Paul says no homosexual can access heaven. This woman is preaching a different gospel!USA - The United Methodist church has approved ordination of gay clergy and performance of same sex marriages. This church doesn't believe God's Word!
May 2006
UK - Richard Harries, The bishop of Oxford has re-ignited the church of England row over homosexuality by claiming that same sex unions are supported by scripture. How can this man be a bishop when the bible is clear that homosexuality is an abomination.USA - A Senate panel approved a controversial proposal to write a gay marriage ban into the US Constitution.
The proposed amendment will go to the full Senate on June 5 for what is expected to be a heated debate on a ban backed by President George W. Bush.
"The American people support protecting traditional marriage, and we should give this amendment due consideration through the full legislative process," Republican Senator Sam Brownback said.
"We must continue to fight for the protection of traditional marriage."
USA - Exodus International is an organisation that works to "heal" gays and lesbians through prayer, counseling and group therapy. They have 'cured' thousands of homosexuals with about a 1 in 3 success ratio. The organisation has drawn much criticism from gay rights advocates who say it is not possible to change one's sexual orientation. Well, I think the results disprove that rubbish.
USA - Declaring the "true church of Jesus Christ now must prevail," a group of Episcopalians has launched a campaign calling for all clergy involved in the consecration of an actively homosexual bishop to be put on trial by the church.
The selection three years ago of Rev. V. Gene Robinson to head the Diocese of New Hampshire further deepened divisions that have been growing for more than three decades between liberals and traditionalists in the 2.2 million member branch of the worldwide Anglican Communion.
The national organization of Episcopal members behind the campaign 'Lay Episcopalians for the Anglican Communion' is asking 37 bishops who opposed Robinson's consecration to file for church-law indictments against Robinson and 42 bishops who consecrated him.
The group has asked for an answer from the traditionalist bishops by May 22. Ten or more bishops are needed to initiate such "presentment" proceedings
USA - San Francisco church's election for a new bishop includes three candidates who live with gay partners. Three of the seven candidates are gay or lesbian, and live openly with their same-sex partners. If one of them wins, the victory could well fracture the Episcopal Church in America and trigger a schism in the worldwide Anglican Communion to which it belongs.
April 2006
USA - Christian students in over 700 schools participate in the 'Day of Truth', designed to counter homosexual activism, specifically the "Day of Silence" which urges students to remain silent for an entire day to express support for the homosexual agenda.USA - Ohio State University (OSU) - As the leftist agenda is being pushed in USA universities, OSU makes all new students attend a "diversity seminar" where the homosexual lifestyle is celebrated and the students are put on a 'guilt trip' for having negative feelings and/or moral judgments about the behavior of these people.
USA - A bill requiring students to learn about the contributions homosexuals have made to society and that could remove gender-specific terms including "mum" and "dad" from textbooks is making progress in California.
