To the five doves.

 

Like most of you I am comparing current affairs to the template of God's word. I am detecting a match. I am noting the signs of the times and comparing them to the Bible's description of the end times. You do not have to be numerologist or even a theologian to conclude that these are the last days. God is making preparations for His church to join Him. Satan Is making preparations to keep as many as he can from ever coming into the inheritance God has prepared for those who love Him and are obedient to His will.  Satan has his traps set in every area of life. Regretfully, many willingly run to the traps and apparently are happy to be snared.

  One of the most obvious is the world's embrace of homosexuality. It is a phenomenon that I never foresaw. The bible says that the believer is not ignorant of Satan's devices. I write this to help you to come to an understanding of  what is really happening. You are going to have to come down on God's side or answer to Him. You are without excuse.

  Homosexuality is a disgusting, abhorrent, unnatural, perverted way of life. Don't call me homophobic. That is not a phobia. That is an opinion based on the word of God.

  If you call yourself a Christian, and that opinion upsets you, you need to get your bible down off the shelf, get out your concordance, and see what God's views are. Don't embrace what God condemns. Settle in your mind the difference between love and lust. Don't confuse the two.

  God has very specific instructions in His word on how to handle sin in the church. Welcome the sinner in. Teach the sinner God's ways. Let the word of God bring the sinner (homosexual) to repentance. If he/she does not repent, then several of the mature brothers go to him/her and show that person the way the Lord wants him/her to go. If they still reject what God has to say on the subject and persist in the sin you   renounce him/her from the pulpit, and expel them from the church. What you do not do is elevate this person to be a Sunday school teacher, or an elder, or even a pastor.

  These are the last days. Satan's traps are baited and set. Don't be caught condoning what God has condemned.
