HOMOSEXUALITY – QUEST FOR RELIGIOUS IDENTITY – 2

2 Timothy 3:1-5; Romans 1:19-27

Exposition

Though homosexuals have their own deity – “the god of perverse sexuality”, their membership is open to everyone irrespective of sociopolitical or religious background. They are not part of the Kingdom of God; they belong to the opposite kingdom. Paul placed them among the host of people he classified as unjust and who would not inherit the kingdom of God (1 Corinthians 6:9-10).

Homosexuals must understand that they are not Christians or saved saints as long as they keep to that habit. They need to open up for help. Many people who suffered the sin of homosexuality in the first century Church were helped. It is a lie to believe that, once you have the tendency for same-sex attraction, you are bound to die a homosexual. Never! You can be helped. Paul indicated that some homosexuals and other sinners who turned to the Lord were helped (1 Cor. 6:11). Jesus does not turn away; all who genuinely came to Him would be washed, cleansed, and set apart to please Him! Those who live in Churches and practice homosexuality have not seen the Lord; they belong to a different religion. This is a call unto repentance, a call to the kingdom of God.

Prayer Guide: Pray that the Lord will help all those in the church who find themselves entangled in homosexuality.

Memory Verse For This Week: Leviticus 20:13 (NKJV) – If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them.
