The homosexual lobby and supporters are a vocal and violent group of
people. They use all types of methods, including violence, to silence
those who oppose their sin. An Oklahoma legislator,
Rep. Sally Kern, R-Oklahoma City, life has been threatened, not to
mention the other vitriolic messages and harassing phone calls she has
received for speaking out against homosexual conduct. Those who oppose
the behavior are called various names, including homophobe, but in
reality, it is the homosexuals who fear the truth. That is the reason
that they are trying to silence her. Confront them with truth and they
attack like rabid dogs. Unlike rabid dogs, which can’t help themselves,
the homosexuals can choose to change their behavior since they chose to
engage in degenerate behavior.

In Genesis 13:13 we learn of the ungodly nature of the men of Sodom
13 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD
exceedingly. There can be no doubt the reference is to the
wicked and sinful practices of all kinds of ungodly sexual behavior with
what follows in Chapter 19:5-15. That begins a description of the
conduct of the wicked men of Sodom, and what they desired to do to the
other men.

Homosexuals try to explain verse five (And they called unto Lot,
and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night?
bring them out unto us, that we may know them.) in various ways,
but the Hebrew word is male or a man as opposed to daughters in verse 8,
females or women. The word wife in verse 15 is opposite of the word for
male. Those engaging in sin go through all types of mental contortions
in an attempt to make their practices acceptable.

God made it clear to the Jews that homosexual conduct is an abomination
Leviticus 18:22, Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with
womankind: it is abomination. The penalty for such
conduct was death (Leviticus 20:13) because it was wicked and still is
in this day in spite of words to the contrary. The proponents of sexual
deviancy should be thankful that the death penalty isn’t the remedy for
their conduct as it was under the Old Testament Law.

Politicians are pandering to the homosexual lobby for nothing more than
votes. Such conduct is called selling oneself to the devil. It is as
Jesus said, For what is a man advantaged,
if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?
(Luke
9:25) It is bad enough that politicians pander to and excuse homosexual
conduct, but there are sympathetic church members who welcome them with
open arms with no teaching that they must repent and change their ways.
Loving someone using the biblical definition is one thing, but open
acceptance of sinful conduct is quite another for any church, no matter
the name on the sign board. Paul told Timothy to withdraw from the
corrupt amongst them and refrain from the other ungodly behavior
perverse people teach and practice. (I Timothy 6:3-5)

Considering the fact that true love is
expressed by Paul in I Corinthians 6:9-11: Know ye not that the
unrighteous shall not inherit the
kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither
fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers
of themselves with mankind, 10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards,
nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. 11
And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but
ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our
God. Had Paul not warned them
of their behavior, he would not have shown them the love of Christ,
which he said he possessed. God’s love does have requirements if one is
to stay in his grace and favor, and God’s true love points out the fatal
nature of sin. Part of faith is believing the teaching that if one
deliberately returns to the old behavior, salvation will be lost. (See
II Peter 2:1-22)

God’s Word is true and the lady in Oklahoma
spoke the truth about the homosexuals and their behavior. They need to
do as James said, Submit yourselves therefore to God.
Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. (James 4:7)
In Sorting It Out, they thereby can end
practicing Sodom and Gomorrah.
