John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
There are a lot of different things that people look at regarding Christianity. Usually our faith is perceived from our past experiences. A "positive" experience with a Christian, for example, casts a "positive" light on the faith.... (belief). On the other hand, something "negative" that was experienced will certainly be looked upon as unfavorable with regards to Christ. This unfavorable experience often can come from the news media, which, in America, is notorious for casting a negative slant on Christianity.
A news article about homosexuals in the priesthood is certainly negative. God does not create homosexuals.... That's simply a lie put out by the devil. There are no homosexuals on this planet.... (Does that sound like a radical statement? It's not. People have homosexual behavior, because they believe the lie that has been told to them... and therefore act accordingly!) The whole homosexual movement in the U.S. is a farce. It's simply the work of the enemy, and we must look at it that way.... They are trying to pervert the entire society of America by forcing their belief system upon the rest of us. They need deliverance... Christ delivers.
Homosexuals will tell you that they are "created that way"..... and they believe it to be a fact. It's not. However, there is a difference between "facts" and Truth. Jesus is the Truth the life and the way. (John 14:6) The Bible is the Truth and it never changes. ....Facts can change, but the Truth is forever constant. The fact is that homosexuality is an oppression.... The fact is that they can be delivered from that oppression..... The Truth is that only Jesus can set them free. (John 8:32)

This is not written to say that I hate homosexuals... I don't. But I can say that homosexual behavior is of the devil, who is the enemy of our soul. (James 4:4) It's his mission to destroy us by what ever means he can. Acts 13:10 speaks of the devil with these words: ".... thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?" Many people under the influence of homosexuality, I believe, long to be set free, yet don't know where to go or how to go about it......
Our mission, as believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, is to set the captives free. All hindering spirits, all curses, and all lies can be broken by the name of Jesus. His Word will not return void. (Isaiah 55:11) ...I believe Him, because God cannot lie. (Hebrews 6:18) The Truth stands forever... Jesus is the Truth.
