imagesI know that I am going to get hate mail for this, but I don’t care. When I was a child, adult men were the leaders of the Boy Scouts. I didn’t have a father around, so many of the men sort of “adopted” me, and showed me how to become a law-abiding young man. These great men taught me Godly and moral principles. I could relate to them. Then slowly, the men disappeared and soon they were replaced by Den Mothers who took the place of Godly men as role models. Now I find out that the Den Mothers are giving way to Gay people trying to impose standards that oppose God‘s will. The sad part is that this is not an isolated instance, we see this type of moral decay happening in every mainstream institution. It’s nothing short of the repeat of Sodom and Gomorrah. Here we go again.

The saddest part about this entire situation is that while I expect the secular world to accept this, many Christians will too. They will say that I hate homosexuals because I oppose their lifestyle and don’t want them teaching the next generation that sin is OK. I will be labeled a hypocrite for defending what the Bible says while others insist that I accept these evil standards. The bottom line is that like so many other sins people condemn, homosexuality is a sin, and we don’t need someone who does not believe that it is teaching our youth. The degrees of sin are the same, so would you want an active serial burglar teaching moral issues like thou shall not steal? Of course not, so why is this so different. Because we have blended the standards of the world into the Bible and focused more about not hurting the feelings of a sinner than turning them down the path of righteousness. I’d rather hurt their feelings now and see them turn to the Lord than give the kudos and know that they’ll spend an eternity in Hell.

So in short, let the hate mail begin, I don’t care. I would rather be hated for preaching on the Bible than popular opinion. After all, I won’t be judged on political correctness, but the stance I take for God.
Don’t accept the philosophy because it flatly contradicts God’s word.

Proverbs 17:15 He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD.

Proverbs 24:24 He that saith unto the wicked, Thou art righteous; him shall the people curse, nations shall abhor him: 25 But to them that rebuke him shall be delight, and a good blessing shall come upon them.

Malachi 2:17 Ye have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet ye say, Wherein have we wearied him? When ye say, Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and he delighteth in them; or, Where is the God of judgment?

Tomorrow the Boy Scouts of America make the historic decision on whether or not they will allow gays into their ranks. I run a huge risk of being called a Homophob among other names, but I think they’re making a huge mistake, like so many other Christian organizations, they are folding under the pressure of secular values.

I do not hate homosexuals, but like any other sin, it needs to be confessed and turned away from, not to try to make it acceptable (1 John 1:9, If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.)

Once again, I want to state that I do not hate homosexuals, I just wish that Christian Organizations would stop allowing what the world believes to be right change their values.

Yip, this is the shortest blog I’ve ever done, but I ask for prayer for the BSA to stand the moral ground.
