The Myth Of Neutrality - Homosex & The Silence Of The Lambs

While Christians have been busy falling all over themselves these past 20 years to be the best at apologizing for what God’s Word says about homosexuality and homosexuals, the sodomite lobby and their filthy friends have been busy taking over the culture with perverted public policy.
I remember 25 years ago when the homosexuals began their campaign to castrate the culture of manhood, they told the world – “We just want acceptance; we just want a level playing field; you just live your life and we’ll quietly live ours; we just want – neutrality!”
The Christian community (as well as the culture) bought this lie of neutrality, and began to silently tolerate homosexuality. Soon after this lie was embraced, we saw that the homosexuals did not just want acceptance but that they began to demand affirmation of their unnatural practices.
Talk show hosts were bullied into silence if they dare spoke negatively about homosexuality. Corporations began holding ‘sensitivity training’ to silence any negative talk about homosexuality in the workplace. Universities began to teach the ‘goodness’ of homosexuality; hold ‘sensitivity training sessions’ for faculty and students alike; and fire faculty that dare say anything contrary to the homosexual mantra being forced down everyone’s throat.
Today, there is not a single talkshow host that speaks negatively about homosexuality – not one! Speak negatively in the workplace and you have a good chance of being fired. There is zero tolerance at the university for a thought to be expressed contrary to the homospeak that the culture has been belittled into embracing. Talk against it openly on a university campus and you’ll be surrounded by screaming youths whose great civil rights cause for their generation is making sure one man can sodomize another.
American Christians believed the lie of neutrality. The truth is – there is no such thing as neutrality! Someone’s law is going to rule. Christians need to begin to realize this. While the Church has been busy hiding truth behind ‘love’ – a false notion of love – the wicked have been putting their law in place so that we and our children have to conform to the rule of their public policy. Whose law rules has consequences.
Now sodomy has been decriminalized. Homosexuals are able to marry in five states. Children are taught in schools that homosexuality is ‘good’ and that those who say otherwise are ‘bad.’ And two weeks ago, President Obama signed a ‘hate crimes’ bill which gives homosexuals special protected status from our federal government. Whose law rules has consequences.
We have a duty – as God’s ambassadors – to make His Law known in the land and see His Law public policy (remember, it was for over the first 200 years of our nation). The early churchmen all – without exception - consistently spoke strongly against homosexuality.
For example, early churchman John Chrysostom, who called homosexuality “a monstrous insanity,” declared in his sermon on Romans 1:26-27, “What shall we say of this madness which is so much worse than fornication as cannot even be expressed? For I should not only say that you have become a woman, but that you have lost your manhood; and have changed neither into that nature, nor kept that which you had, but have been a traitor to both of them at once; and deserving of both men and women to be driven out and stoned as having wronged either sex.”
Compare that to a well-known Christian magazine which helped aid in the neutralization of Christians in the early 1990’s when they said, “Examine your own attitude. Being squeamish about homosexuality is one thing, but having a reaction of revulsion, hostility, or violence is sin.” Today things are even worse as so-called ‘Bible-believing’ pastors are preaching sermons which are no more than parroting templates from the Metropolitan Church (a nationwide homosexual church which perverts 2000 years of biblical interpretation).
Neutrality is a myth. Someone’s law is going to rule. The only question is – whose law is going to rule? Because Christians have abandoned the public arena, the laws of wicked men rule our land – with filthy and harsh consequences. We need to honor God’s Law – not apologize for it – and proclaim it to the magistrates and to our nation. Christus imperat!
