How To Interact With Gay Relatives. Part [4] 06/11/2024 (Morning thought)

Matthew 28:18 And Jesus came and spoke unto them, saying, all power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

[3] Should parents and family members attend a gay wedding, of a son or daughter? [4] How to deal with the situation when it is under your own roof. [5] How should the remnant people of God address the issue as it comes to our doorsteps. [6] Should gay persons and relatives be accepted as they are into the remnant church? [7] Should they be expected to remain gay, since, as is stated by some experts some folks were born with alternative tendencies, due to no fault of their own, and if so, should change be urged upon them?

[8] Is being gay or LGBTQ solely the result of learned behaviors, or can it be a scientifically proven reality, that some persons are born with those tendencies.  [9] Finally, what does The Lord have to say on the matter in question, especially since many segments of our society are currently teeming with gay, and LGBTQ individuals?

These are just a few of the haunting questions, and concerns the remnant people would have to grapple with even as we seek to win souls to God’s kingdom, for there is no doubt that we have reached a sort of crossroads, as it pertains to managing the mission of the church in an increasingly changing world.

Matthew 28:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!

How To Interact With Gay Relatives. Part [3] 06/11/2024 (Evening thought)

Leviticus 18:29 For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people. 30 Therefore shall you keep mine ordinance, that you commit not any one of these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that you defile not yourselves therein: I am the Lord your God.

And, it is now in our own backyard, for even though persons many have different persuasions, the fact is that the phenomenon has entered our churches and is forcing individuals and families to confront what is an emerging reality, that close relatives, and friends might be gay, or LGBTQ, and as such, we should be willing to follow Biblical instructions on the matter.

Mothers, and fathers of gay, or LGBTQ children will especially need to pay attention to the Bible study today, because it is a very delicate matter that must be handled with great care and wisdom that is born of God. Some persons prefer not to address the matter, but avoiding it will just give satan more room to spread indoctrination and philosophy on the issue, far and wide, as can already be observed in public schools in California.

 The following are just a few of the questions, issues, and situations persons in our day will have to reckon with, as more and more family members and friends will declare their sexual orientation to be out of the ordinary, and not in harmony with the gold standard written in the Bible. [1] How to interact in a Christlike manner with one who embraces a philosophy on marriage you might not necessarily agree with. [2] How to respect that person’s freedom of choice, when it differs greatly to yours.

Joshua 24:15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom you will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
