Homosexuals

WHAT THE BIBLE TEACHES ABOUT HOMOSEXUALS

A Covenant Kingdom Identity Teaching

Section 1 — Naming the Sin

There is no softer way to say this. The Bible names homosexuality an abomination. Not an alternative lifestyle. Not a misunderstood identity. An abomination — which is the strongest language the Word of God uses to describe something He finds utterly detestable in His sight.

The word in Hebrew is toebah. It does not mean "unwise." It does not mean "culturally awkward." It means something that provokes God to revulsion — something He looks upon with wrath, not with sympathy. That is what God calls homosexuality. And if God names it that, a true Christian will name it that.

What are called "gay people" in the world and in the modern church is not a neutral designation. The word gay was stolen from the English language and repurposed to make something vile sound cheerful. The more biblically accurate term is sodomites — derived from the city of Sodom, a city so thoroughly given over to this particular sexual perversion that God rained fire and brimstone from heaven and buried it. You can't find Sodom on a map today. God made sure of that.

And if the God who did that is the same God on the throne today — and He is, for He changes not — then everything that God said about this sin, everything He prescribed for it, everything He prophesied would come upon a nation that embraces it, still stands. His Word has not been updated. His law has not been revised. His position on homosexuality has not changed. It is the same today, yesterday, yea and forever.

Section 2 — The Law of God: What God Commands

God does not leave His people guessing about where He stands on homosexuality. He put it plainly in the Law — stated twice, once as a prohibition and once with the penalty attached.

Leviticus 18:22 — "Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind: it is abomination."

Leviticus 20:13 — "If a man also lie with mankind as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them."

Deuteronomy 23:17 — "There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel."

Two things stand out from these passages. First, this is not a suggestion. God does not say, "I would prefer you not do this." He says it is an abomination and they shall surely be put to death. Second, the penalty is stated in the same breath as the prohibition. God does not separate the declaration from the consequence. He names the act and names the punishment in one sentence. That tells you how serious He is.

Some will come back and say, "That's the Old Testament. That doesn't apply anymore." We will deal with that objection squarely in Section 5. But understand this up front: you don't get to cross out the parts of God's Word you don't like. The same Bible that tells you Jesus loves you tells you that homosexuals shall surely be put to death. Both statements are in the same Book, under the same Author.

The Law also made clear that this applied to the sons of Israel — to God's covenant people. There was to be no sodomite among them. Not tolerated. Not integrated. Not accepted. Absent.

Section 3 — The Reprobate Mind: Romans 1 and the Origin of Homosexuality

Some people think homosexuality is simply a sin like other sins — something a person chooses, and can unchoose, like lying or stealing. The Apostle Paul goes much deeper than that in Romans 1, and what he reveals is sobering. Homosexuality is not just a sin. It is a judgment — a curse God allows to come upon a people who have already rejected Him.

Romans 1 lays it out in sequence. First, a people knows God. Then they refuse to glorify Him or be thankful. They become vain in their imaginations. Their foolish heart is darkened. They profess to be wise and become fools. They exchange the glory of God for idols. And then — because of all of that, as a consequence of all of that — God gives them over.

Romans 1:24 — "Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves."

Romans 1:26-27 — "For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet."

Paul repeats the phrase "God gave them over" or "God gave them up." This is not an accident. Paul is hammering a nail. When a people despises God and rejects His truth, God does not beg them to reconsider. He releases them into what they have chosen. He opens His hand and lets them fall.

Romans 1:28 — "And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient."

The word reprobate means disqualified, condemned, adulterated — a mind that no longer functions in the direction of truth. Paul is saying that homosexuality is what happens when a civilization that once knew God decides it no longer wants to retain Him. The reprobate mind is God's answer to that rejection.

Three translations of verse 28 say the same thing with different force. The King James says God gave them over to "a reprobate mind." The Amplified says "a base and condemned mind to do things not proper or decent but loathsome." The New American Standard says "a depraved mind to do those things which are not proper." Reprobate. Base. Condemned. Depraved. These are not the words of a God who considers homosexuality a neutral variation. These are the words of a God pronouncing sentence.

And what flows out of that reprobate mind? Read the rest of Romans 1 carefully. Paul lists what comes with it: unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness, envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity, whispering, backbiting, hatred of God, despitefulness, pride, boasting, inventing evil things, disobedience to parents, covenant-breaking, absence of natural affection, implacability, unmerciful. Homosexuality is not an isolated sin. It is the visible tip of a whole iceberg of God-rejection. When you see it rising in a society, what you are seeing is a civilization that has gone to war against God — and what you are not yet seeing is the mass of corruption underneath the surface.

So when the modern church says a man can be a homosexual and a Christian, they are claiming something the Word of God explicitly forbids. By scriptural definition, a homosexual is a Christ-hater. God gave them over because they did not retain God in their knowledge. That is not a condition compatible with being a follower of Jesus Christ.

THE BODY PAYS: DISEASE, PLAGUE, AND THE WAGES OF SODOMY

God did not design the human body for sodomy. What the sodomite community does to itself is not a lifestyle — it is a medical catastrophe, and the body renders its verdict the same way God's Word does. These are not anecdotes or moral judgments dressed up as medicine. These are documented, clinical findings from doctors, including homosexual doctors speaking about their own community.

WARNING! Explicit

Tim LaHaye, in What Everyone Should Know About Homosexuality, records what hospital emergency rooms were already seeing: one doctor, an acknowledged homosexual himself, reported a sharp increase in rectal abscesses and intestinal infections. Damage to the wall of the intestine leads to peritonitis — a life-and-death situation. A ripped colon. Doctors removing whiskey glasses, bananas, Coke bottles, and objects surgically impacted so deeply in the rectum they could not be removed any other way. Warts surgically removed from the anus — described by one surgeon as "a dead giveaway of their sexual style." Sphincter muscles destroyed by repeated fisting, producing anal incompetence — the permanent, involuntary leaking of stool. A near epidemic of syphilis and gonorrhea of the throat, because the throat, as one doctor noted, is as vulnerable to venereal disease as the rectum.

That is a small portion of what goes on in the sodomite community. It is never discussed by the politicians who champion them or the media that promotes them. What is presented to the public is the image of persecuted, misunderstood people. What the emergency rooms see is the consequence of a reprobate mind expressed through a body God never built for those acts.

Then there is AIDS. Some have said AIDS would stop homosexuality. It has not. The parallel is Genesis 19: the men of Sodom were struck blind, and still they groped for the door, still trying to get to Lot's men. Nothing stopped them. The same principle holds today. AIDS has not stopped it because this is not a rational behavior that responds to rational deterrents — it is, as Romans 1 names it, a burning lust that operates beyond ordinary human self-preservation. When a man continues behavior he knows will kill him, that is not a lifestyle choice. That is a reprobate mind.

AIDS swept through the sodomite community because the acts that define that community are precisely the acts most efficient at transmitting it. The body cannot be fooled by political language. Call the behavior what you want — the disease follows the behavior, not the label. God wrote His verdict in the Law. The body registers the same verdict in the flesh. Neither the Law nor the body has been persuaded by decades of rainbow flags.

The wages of sin is death — and in the case of sodomy, the wages are paid on the installment plan, in emergency rooms, in surgical theaters, in AIDS wards, and in the grave.

Section 4 — "Pride": What Scripture Says About the Word They Stole

They took the word pride and built a month around it. June is now what the antichrist world calls Pride Month — a month in which the sin of sodomy, along with every other sexual perversion attached to it, is celebrated, elevated, and pushed in the face of every man, woman, and child in this nation. Transgenderism. Lesbianism. Bisexuality. All the perversions the world has invented names for — they celebrate them all under the banner of "pride."

They also stole our rainbow. The rainbow is a Christian symbol going all the way back to Noah. It is God's covenant sign. And the sodomites have taken it, plastered it on their banners and their flags and their corporate logos, and turned it into the symbol of their abomination. It is time for us to take it back and use it openly, because it belongs to God's covenant people.

Search the Word of God for the word pride. Do a thorough word study. Every single place it appears in Scripture — every one — it is used negatively. Not once is pride mentioned as a virtue. Not once as something to cultivate or celebrate. Every time, it is condemned.

Proverbs 8:13 — "The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate."

Pride is listed alongside arrogancy, the evil way, and the perverse mouth as things God hates. The fear of the Lord — the true reverence of God — produces hatred of pride. And these sodomites are calling what they do "pride." They are doing the very thing God says He hates, and they are doing it proudly.

Proverbs 11:2 — "When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom."

Proverbs 14:3 — "In the mouth of the foolish is a rod of pride: but the lips of the wise shall preserve them."

Proverbs 16:18 — "Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall."

That is where we get the saying "pride goeth before a fall." But notice the actual text says something stronger: pride goeth before destruction. Not just a stumble. Destruction. There is a haughty spirit permeating America right now — a pride in this sin that is being forced into every sector of society, every industry, every school, every screen — and there is no doubt where it leads. Destruction. That is not my opinion. That is the Word of God.

Proverbs 29:23 — "A man's pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit."

Mark 7:20-23 — "And He said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: All these evil things come from within, and defile the man."

Jesus puts pride in a list with fornications, murders, thefts, blasphemy, and foolishness. All of it coming from within the heart of man. The devil does not have to whisper in your ear to produce this. It comes from within. And all of it defiles the man. There is nothing in this list that is neutral. There is nothing in this list that God views with approval. Pride — including the pride these sodomites flaunt — is in the middle of that list, and Jesus puts it right where it belongs.

The warning for this nation is sober. They are proud of their sin. They are proud of their shame. And the Word of God is unambiguous about where that goes: destruction. We are watching it happen in real time. The judgment of God on a nation that is proud of what God calls abomination is not coming — it is already here. The people just can’t see it.

Section 5 — The Death Penalty: God's Prescribed Remedy

The Bible prescribes the death penalty for homosexuality. Not imprisonment. Not counseling. Not sensitivity training. Death. And any church, any minister, any Christian who claims to believe the Bible while refusing to say that is not standing on the Word of God — they are standing on their own feelings.

We have already read Leviticus 20:13. Read it again, because it cannot be read too many times:

Leviticus 20:13 — "If a man also lie with mankind as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them."

Their blood shall be upon them. That means their death is their own fault. God is not being cruel. God is executing judgment upon those who have violated His covenant law. The execution of judgment falls on them by their own choosing.

And in Romans 1:32, after Paul has laid out the full description of what the reprobate mind produces, he says this:

Romans 1:32 — "Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them."

Worthy of death. Paul takes the Law of God and confirms it in the New Testament. This is not abrogated. This is not overridden. This is affirmed. These things are worthy of death. And notice the second half of that verse: not only those who commit such things are condemned, but those who have pleasure in them — those who approve of them, cheer for them, celebrate them, vote for policies that protect them. The man and woman who sits in their church and claps for sodomite acceptance is under the same condemnation as the act itself.

There is a common objection that needs to be answered directly: "That was the Old Testament. Jesus changed all that." No, He did not. Jesus said in Matthew 5:17-18 that He did not come to destroy the Law or the prophets but to fulfill them, and that not one jot or tittle would pass from the Law until all was fulfilled. The Law of God regarding homosexuality is not a ceremonial ordinance. It is a moral law — the same category as the prohibitions against murder and theft. The death penalty for murder did not vanish under the New Covenant. Neither did the death penalty for sodomy. The ceremonial ordinances, the rituals and blood sacrifices ended, not the laws on sodomy.

God does not issue a death penalty for things He takes lightly. When God says "they shall surely be put to death" — and says it in the same breath in which He names the act — He is making clear that this is not a minor infraction. This is a capital offense under His law. The modern church's refusal to say so does not change what God has said. It only reveals that the modern church has crossed over into the territory of those who, knowing the judgment of God, have pleasure in them that do such things.

Section 6 — Sodom and Gomorrah: God's Historical Judgment

We get the word sodomy from a city. That city is Sodom. And you cannot find Sodom on a map today because God destroyed it — thoroughly, completely, and without apology.

Read Genesis 19. The men of Sodom — old and young, from every part of the city — surrounded Lot's house and demanded that the two visitors be brought out so that they could have sexual relations with them. These were men seeking men. Not a fringe element. Not a few bad actors. The city. Every part of it. That is what that city had become.

And even when God struck those men blind — blinded them supernaturally as a warning — they did not stop. The blind men were still groping for the door, still trying to get in. That tells you something about the nature of this thing. It is so entrenched, so deep, so thoroughly a possession of the reprobate mind, that physical blindness did not stop it. Nothing stops it short of God's remedy.

God rained fire and brimstone from heaven on Sodom and Gomorrah. Both cities. Buried. Burned. Destroyed. This is not a story from the God of wrath who was replaced by the God of love in the New Testament, a lie told by those who want to strip God of His justice so they can keep sinning without consequence. The God who destroyed Sodom is the same God on the throne today. He says so Himself: He is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

And the God who destroyed Sodom owes Sodom an apology if He does not deal with America. Because what happened in Sodom — the thing that brought fire from heaven — is now being celebrated with government endorsement, a month dedicated to its pride, and transgenders reading filthy propaganda to your children in the school libraries. God is not mocked. What a man sows, he reaps. What a nation sows, it reaps.

Gibeah and the Tribe of Benjamin

The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah is not the only time this sin triggered the judgment of God within history. There is a second account that carries its own distinct warning, and it hits even closer to home because it happened inside Israel — among God's own covenant people.

In Judges 19, certain men of the city of Gibeah — sons of Belial, the text calls them — surrounded a house at night and beat on the door. They demanded that the man inside be brought out so they could "know" him. Know has the same sexual connotation it carried in Genesis 19 with the men of Sodom. These Benjamite sodomites were making the same demand the men of Sodom made when the angels came to Lot's house. The pattern is identical because the sin is identical.

Judges 19:22 — "Now as they were making their hearts merry, behold, the men of the city, certain sons of Belial, beset the house round about, and beat at the door, and spake to the master of the house, the old man, saying, Bring forth the man that came into thine house, that we may know him."

The man inside was a Levite — a priest. Guests and holy men were to be protected under the customs of the day. The host went out and begged them not to do this wickedness. But they would not stop. What followed was the rape and murder of the Levite's concubine through the night. When morning came and her master found her collapsed at the door, he took her home, cut her body into twelve pieces, and sent the pieces throughout all the borders of Israel as a declaration of what had been done.

All Israel assembled against Benjamin. They demanded that the tribe hand over the sons of Belial who had committed this abomination. Benjamin refused. The tribe closed ranks around the sodomites and chose to defend them rather than surrender them to righteous judgment. That decision made the entire tribe guilty. It transformed a local sin into a tribal war.

The resulting battle nearly wiped Benjamin off the map. The eleven tribes of Israel came against them and did not stop until the tribe of Benjamin was reduced to six hundred men. All the cities were burned. The women and children were killed. This is what happens when a people decides that protecting sodomites within the camp is more important than the law of God. The sin does not stay contained to the original offenders. It spreads its guilt outward to everyone who shields it, defends it, and refuses to give it over to judgment.

That pattern is playing out in America right now. The sin is not being hidden. It is being defended from the highest levels of government, cheered by corporations, taught to children in schools, and blessed from church pulpits. Every institution and every individual that closes ranks around this abomination rather than naming it and judging it according to God's Word is doing what Benjamin did. And God dealt with Benjamin without apology.

Section 7 — God's Rod in History: Judgment on a Nation That Defies Him

God's judgment is not always deferred to eternity. Sometimes it arrives in real time, right on schedule, right where the defiance happened. Those with eyes to see it will see it. Those who have been given over to a reprobate mind will call it a coincidence and miss it entirely.

The fires that swept through California decades ago came right on the heels of that state's court ruling in favor of sodomite unions. God's judgment on California for that defiance came in the form of fire — which is not a foreign concept in the Bible when it comes to the sin of sodomy, because fire is exactly what came down on Sodom.

And then came Hurricane Gustav. In a particular stroke of divine precision, that storm struck New Orleans during Southern Decadence weekend — the city's annual sodomite festival — for the second time. The storm's own name, Gustav, means the rod of God. A rod of God landed on Southern Decadence. If you cannot read the message in that, the problem is not with your eyes — it's with your willingness to see. They happen all the time, even unto this day.

These things do not happen by accident. God is not a passive observer. He is the Lord of history, and when a nation that once served Him throws open its doors to the abominations He condemned to death, He responds. He has always responded. He destroyed Sodom. He nearly wiped out Benjamin. He is responding to America and our European kindred nations.

The judgment that is already upon this nation is only the beginning. We have been warned. We have been given time to repent. We have not repented. We have gotten worse. We have elected leaders who endorse this perversion, hold inaugural balls for sodomites, use the Bible they place their hand on — that same Bible that prescribes the death penalty for homosexuality — as a prop while promising to advance the sodomite agenda. God is not going to be mocked. The judgment is coming and it is coming larger than anything we have seen yet, to the point where no one will be able to argue about what it is.

We pray for our nation, and we pray Psalm 83 — not timidly, not as a suggestion, but as a declaration of what God has already said will happen to those who devise plans against His people. What has been done will be done again. The confusion of Babel, destruction of Sodom, the routing of Midian, the judgment on Benjamin — God can do it again and He will.

Section 8 — The False Church: Mystery Babylon and the UCC

The great apostasy of the American church is not that it has abandoned Christianity altogether. It is that it has repackaged God, renamed His doctrines, and reversed His judgments — all while keeping His name on the sign above the door. That is more dangerous than outright atheism, because it deceives people into thinking they are hearing from God when they are hearing from the enemy.

A denomination called the United Church of Christ voted — by a margin of 409 to 210 — to condemn the Christians who stood against sodomite protections in Dade County, Florida. When Christian ministers and citizens rallied to repeal an ordinance that would have forced Christian schools to hire sodomite teachers, the United Church of Christ called their opposition "fanatical prejudice," "a reactionary movement," and "the violation of civil rights." They accused Christians of generating hatred. They made not a single mention of the murders being committed by the homosexuals they were defending.

This is not a Christian denomination. This is what Revelation 18 calls Mystery Babylon. Read it:

Revelation 18:2 — "Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird."

And then comes the command:

Revelation 18:4 — "Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues."

Come out. That is not a suggestion. It is a command. God is calling His people to separate from the religious system that has become the habitation of devils. When a denomination votes two-to-one against the Word of God and in favor of the enemies of God, it has identified itself. It has put on its name tag.

Romans 1 describes exactly what these denominations have done. They took God as He is, and they remade Him. They changed the glory of the incorruptible God. They told their congregations that the homosexuals are "our own people," that they "come from our churches, our homes," and that Christians must accept them. That is the creature attempting to create God in its own image — the precise inversion of creation.

And notice what Paul says follows from that in Romans 2:1 — he warns those who judge others for the very thing they themselves are doing. This is not a condemnation of righteous judgment. It is a condemnation of hypocrisy. We had an example of this: a prominent anti-communist minister, very vocal against sodomites, who was later found to be involved in that very practice himself. That is what Romans 2 warns against. Christians who stand on the Word of God and judge according to God's law are not condemned by these verses. Christians who condemn sodomy from a pulpit while secretly practicing it — that is the target of Paul's rebuke.

The true Church of Jesus Christ does not stand with the enemies of God. It does not vote to shield sodomites. It does not call the Word of God "fanatical prejudice." It stands with God's law, it names what God names, and it calls people to repentance — not to acceptance. Any church that has done otherwise has removed itself from the category of "the true church" and placed itself squarely within Mystery Babylon. Come out of her.

— — —

Section 9 — Answering the Objections: The Deceptions They Use

The soft church of America has built up a whole inventory of objections to every one of these positions. Our people have heard these objections so many times that some of them have started to believe them.

"Jesus Never Condemned Homosexuality"

Jesus is the Word of God. John 1:1 — "In the beginning was the Word." He did not need to repeat every law personally from the Sermon on the Mount; He affirmed the entire Law (Matthew 5:17-18). Moreover, the God of Leviticus who prescribed the death penalty for sodomy is the same God who became flesh in Jesus Christ. When they say Jesus never condemned homosexuality, they are cutting Jesus off from the God He is. You cannot separate Jesus Christ from the Father.

"Judge Not That Ye Be Not Judged"

This is the most abused verse in all of Scripture. Read what it actually says in context. It is a prohibition against hypocritical judgment — condemning someone for a sin you are committing yourself. It is not a blanket prohibition on moral discernment. Paul says explicitly in 1Corinthians 6 that the saints shall judge the world and shall judge angels — certainly they are capable of making decisions about things in this life, because how we live is a witness, and by our actions the world is judged, just as Noah judged the world in his day by building the ark. Malachi 3:18 commands God's people to "discern between the righteous and the wicked." David said in Psalm 139 without shame, "I hate them with perfect hatred that hate Thee, O Lord, I count them mine enemies." God searched David's heart and found nothing wicked in it. Christian people not only have the right to judge according to God's law — they have the responsibility.

"God Is Love — He Accepts All"

The same Book that says God is love says that God gave homosexuals over to a reprobate mind because they rejected Him. The same Book that says God is love says they shall surely be put to death. You do not get to take half of what God says and call the other half obsolete. The love of God is inseparable from His law. God gave us His law because He loves His people and wants to protect them. A father who refuses to discipline his son does not love him — he hates him (Proverbs 13:24). God's law is an act of love for His covenant people. Accepting what God calls an abomination is not love — it is rebellion dressed up as compassion.

"The Law Has Been Nailed to the Cross"

The moral law of God has not been abolished. What was nailed to the cross was the certificate of debt — the penalty that stood against us for our violations of the law (Colossians 2:14). Jesus paid the penalty. He did not dissolve the standard. The prohibition against murder was not nailed to the cross. The prohibition against theft was not nailed to the cross. The prohibition against sodomy was not nailed to the cross. The law, the statutes, and the judgments of God existed in the days of Abraham — before Moses, before Sinai — because they are the expression of God's holy character. They do not change because God does not change.

"You Can't Legislate Morality"

Every law ever passed is the legislation of someone's morality. The question is always whose morality. The early American colonies legislated the morality of God's Word, and sodomy was a capital offense from the earliest days of settlement. Our ancestors did not view that as backward or cruel. They viewed it as the protection of their communities, their families, and their covenant with God. What our generation calls "progress" they would have called capitulation to the enemies of God.

"LOVE THE SINNER, HATE THE SIN" — WHY THIS FORMULA IS NOT SCRIPTURAL

The popular Christian maxim "hate the sin, love the sinner" is theological error, capable of bringing the wrath of God on those who hold it. Scripture does not leave this to inference. Eight times, in both Testaments and in the deuterocanonical wisdom literature, the object of God's own hatred is stated as a person, not an abstraction:

Psalm 5:5 — "Thou hatest all workers of iniquity." Not the iniquity in the abstract — the workers of it. And when Christ speaks the judgment of Matthew 7:23 — "Depart from Me, ye that work iniquity" — He is echoing Psalm 6:8, while Psalm 5:5 has already established God's disposition toward those very men: He hates them. Jesus does not tell the wicked "I hated what you did." He tells them to depart from Him, personally.

Psalm 11:5 — "the wicked and him that loveth violence His soul hateth." God's own soul hates the man, stated twice in one clause.

Malachi 1:3 / Romans 9:13 — "I hated Esau." A named individual and his line (posterity) — not a named sin.

Jeremiah 12:8 — "therefore have I hated it" — His own heritage, His own people; the antecedent is a people, not a practice.

Hosea 9:15 — "there I hated them" — Israel herself, by name, at Gilgal.

Sirach 12:6 — "the most High hateth sinners." Not their sin — sinners, the class of persons, stated as the direct object.

Sirach 27:24 — "even the Lord hates him" — the hypocrite, singular, personal pronoun.

Wisdom of Solomon 14:9 — the cleanest refutation of the formula available: "the ungodly and his ungodliness are both alike hateful unto God." Scripture puts the sinner and the sin side by side and says both are hated alike. If they were meant to be separated, this is exactly the verse that would have said so — and instead it says the opposite.

Eight verses, no ambiguity. The wicked man himself, not merely his wickedness, is repeatedly and explicitly named as the object of God's hatred. "Love the sinner, hate the sin" must erase the direct object of these sentences to survive contact with them.

The corrected doctrine comes from Abraham's intercession for Sodom: Abraham's concern was for the righteous who might be found within the wicked city — he interceded to spare the righteous, not out of love for the wicked themselves. He didn't love the wicked. The entire "hate the sin, love the sinner" formula is a modern softening with no scriptural warrant, one that causes believers to defend or excuse the wicked instead of standing with the righteously wronged.

2Chronicles 19:2 is the direct proof text (and it’s not just about anti-christ Jews): "Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate the LORD? therefore is wrath upon thee from before the LORD." Loving those who hate the Lord — not merely their sin, but them — is itself what brings divine wrath.

Apply it directly to the sodomite question: God does not hate the act of sodomy and stand neutral toward the sodomite. His Word has already settled that. The sodomite is not a sinner to be loved while his sin is condemned. He is a worker of iniquity. The wrath of God abides on him, not merely on what he does. "Love the sinner, hate the sin" is not a gentler form of Christianity — it is a departure from it.

Section 10 — What Our Forefathers Knew: Early American Sodomy Laws

We are told by the antichrist system that opposition to homosexuality is a recent phenomenon — a remnant of ignorance that civilization is finally overcoming. That is a lie. Sodomy has been condemned in every Christian civilization throughout history, and in early America it was not just condemned morally but prohibited by law — capital law.

In Jamestown, Virginia, in 1610 — America's first permanent settlement — the governor, Sir Thomas Gates, issued the colony's laws. Among them: "No man shall commit the horrible and disdainable sins of sodomy upon pain of death." That was the law in the first permanent English settlement in America. Not counseling. Not a fine. Death.

The Code of Plymouth in 1636 listed eight offenses punishable by death. Sodomy was one of them. The Massachusetts Bay Code in 1641 included laws against sodomy alongside heresy, witchcraft, blasphemy, and bestiality. Rhode Island Colony in 1647 had similar laws. New Haven Colony in 1656. Virginia in 1661. New Hampshire in 1680. Pennsylvania in 1682. New York, South Carolina, Delaware, and Georgia all passed laws against sodomy, some calling it by the old legal term "buggery." The Georgia Colony of 1732 made it a crime.

These were not fringe elements. These were the founding legal codes of the communities that became the United States of America. And where did they get those laws? From the scriptures. From Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13. They took the Word of God seriously enough to write it into law.

In 1993, Congress passed Public Law 97-280, which declared the Bible to be the Word of God and stated that Americans should follow its principles and teachings. The Congress of the United States acknowledged on record that the Bible is God's Word and should govern American life. And that same Bible advocates the death penalty for homosexuality. That same Bible was what every president placed his hand on to be sworn into office — including those who have publicly endorsed and advanced the sodomite agenda while their hand rested on it.

We have not moved forward. We have moved backward — away from the law of God and toward the judgment of God.

Section 11 — They Recruit: The War for the Next Generation

Homosexuals cannot reproduce. A man and a man cannot produce a child. A woman and a woman cannot produce a child. They have no biological legacy. Their lifestyle, if left entirely to itself, ends with them.

So what do they have to do? They have to recruit. They have to evangelize. They have to normalize their lifestyle in the minds of the young, so that the next generation does not look at it the way the Word of God looks at it, but looks at it the way the world now wants them to look at it — with acceptance, with celebration, with pride. Your children are their recruitment pool.

They have been moving the temperature up slowly, like the frog in the pot that does not jump out because the heat is raised so gradually. Just a few decades ago you could not have had a same-sex kiss in a major studio animated film. Today they brag about it. Disney puts the first animated same-sex kiss in a major cartoon — during Pride Month — and they are "very proud of that." This is deliberate. This is a strategy. Desensitizing. And it has worked, because we as Christians have allowed it to continue, doing nothing, saying nothing, keeping quiet so as not to offend anybody.

Consider who is teaching your children right now. If your children are in a government school, you do not know for certain what your child's teacher believes, practices, or promotes. There are homosexual teachers in first-grade classrooms openly enough that a first-grader knows about it and communicates it to her parents. Think about that. That is the person shaping your child's worldview five days a week. That is the person they look up to, the authority in the room — and that person is living a life that the Word of God calls an abomination and prescribes the death penalty for. Sending you child to public school is consent given to the State to do whatever to your child, including vaccinations.

Homeschooling is not an option — it is a duty. You are responsible before God for what goes into the minds and hearts and blood of the children He placed in your care. You cannot outsource that responsibility to a government institution staffed with people who are committed to the normalization of sexual perversion. Pull your children out. Teach them the Word of God. Teach them what God calls an abomination. Teach them what happened to Sodom. Teach them what the Law says. Because if you do not, the world will teach them something else, and they will believe it.

The interracial mixing agenda runs alongside this same strategy — the slow normalization of what God has not sanctioned, pushed through media, entertainment, and education, a little at a time, until the outrage diminishes and the next generation accepts it as normal. We see the same hand at work. The same antichrist system that wants to blur the line between man and man wants to blur every other line God has drawn.

Section 12 — Come Out of Her: Separation, Standing, and the Kingdom

God's command to His people regarding Babylon is not passive. It is not "stay in there and try to reform it from within." It is: come out. Separate. Be not partakers of her sins, that you receive not of her plagues.

If your denomination voted for the protection of sodomites. If your church told you that homosexuals are "your own people." If the pulpit you sit under will not stand and declare plainly that homosexuality is an abomination and that the Word of God prescribes the death penalty for it — you are sitting under Mystery Babylon. You need to come out of her. Not eventually. Now.

And coming out is not enough on its own. There is a positive duty as well. Revelation 18 says to reward Babylon as she has rewarded you — double. To work for her destruction, not just to escape it. God will use the instruments of His people — Christian Israel, the true remnant — to bring the judgment He has decreed. You are not called to simply survive the collapse. You are called to advance the Kingdom. Overcome. Occupy. Endure.

What does that look like? It looks like standing. It looks like saying from the pulpit what God says from His Word, without softening it, without qualifying it, without adding the disclaimer that makes everyone comfortable. It looks like fighting the sodomite ordinances when they come to your city, the way faithful ministers fought and defeated them in Dade County, in Colorado, in every community where God's people decided they were not going to let Sodom move in.

For a kingdom to exist, four things are required: a King, a Law, a People, and a Land. Jesus Christ is the King. His Word is the Law. We are His people — the covenant people, the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, who have formed the multitude of nations prophesied to Abraham, the Anglo-Saxon, Germanic, Scandinavian, Celtic, and Kindred people of the Christian West. And we were given a land — 2Samuel 7:10 says God appointed a place for His people Israel and planted them, that they might dwell in their own place and be disturbed no more. We were given the choicest land in the world from sea to shining sea. Self-sufficient. Unprecedented. The greatest nation in the history of nations.

And we squandered it. We traded God's law for man's law. We traded the theocracy our ancestors had in the 1600s — godly Christian communities governing themselves by the Word of God — for a man-made government that now mandates the acceptance of abomination and persecutes the ministers who preach against it.

But they are not going to win. God is laughing. Psalm 2 says the Lord laughs at the conspiracies of the nations. Psalm 83 is being prayed over this nation, and God who stopped the tower of Babel with confusion can stop the tower these people are building right now. He who routed the Midianites in confusion can route these forces in confusion. The Word of God says they are going to tread down the wicked. It says the wicked shall be ashes under the soles of our feet.

We are the people of God's covenant. We are not leaving. They plan to wipe us out. The Lord is laughing. And so are we.

Stand. Preach. Teach your children. Come out of Babylon. Advance the Kingdom. And name what God names — without apology, without qualification, without the softening that the world demands and God never authorized.

Homosexuality is an abomination. God said so. It is a curse upon those who reject Him. God said so. It carries the death penalty. God said so. And the God who said so is the same God on the throne today. He has not changed. His law has not changed. His judgment has not changed.

Let those who have ears hear what God says.

APPENDIX A

Key Words: Hebrew and Greek Definitions

What the Bible actually says — in the original languages

The words chosen by the Holy Spirit to describe this sin are not vague or gentle. The original Hebrew and Greek go further than most English translations convey. Every word below comes directly from the biblical text. These definitions are your anchor when the world tries to reframe the language.

Hebrew Words — Old Testament

H8441 TOEBAH — Abomination (to-ay-baw')

Definition: A disgusting thing, abomination, abominable; used both in the ritual sense (unclean food, idols, mixed marriages) and the ethical sense (wickedness, moral depravity)

This is the strongest word of revulsion in the Hebrew vocabulary. God does not call homosexuality a mistake or a weakness. He calls it toebah — something that provokes Him to disgust. Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13 both use this word. There is no softer translation. Abomination is the word and it is the right word.

H6945 KADESH — Sodomite (kaw-dashe')

Definition: From H6942 (to be separate); a quasi-sacred person — technically a male devotee by prostitution to licentious idolatry; a sodomite, an unclean one

The word carries the ugly irony of being "set apart" — but set apart to paganism and satanic ritual, not to God. This is the male temple prostitute who served the fertility cults of Baal and Asherah. Homosexuality and paganism have always traveled together. Deuteronomy 23:17 forbids the kadesh from among the sons of Israel. Good kings — Asa, Jehoshaphat, Josiah — were commended specifically for purging the kadesh from the land. Their presence in a nation was a mark of deep apostasy.

H2154 ZIMMAH — Wickedness / Lewdness (zim-maw')

Definition: A plan, device; usually in a bad sense — a wicked purpose, lewd device, wickedness, heinous crime

Used in connection with sexual abomination. What God's law prohibits is not merely impolite behavior — it is zimmah: a purposeful, devised wickedness. It is not a slip. It is a deliberate course.

— — —

Greek Words — New Testament

G733 ARSENOKOITES — Defiled with Mankind / Sodomite (ar-sen-ok-oy'-tace)

Definition: From G730 (arrhen — a male) and G2845 (koite — a bed); one who lies with a male as with a female; a sodomite, homosexual

Paul uses this word in 1Corinthians 6:9 and 1Timothy 1:10. It is not a cultural artifact or an obscure term — it is built directly from the Leviticus prohibition (a male + a bed). Paul knew exactly what he was writing. The arsenokoites will not inherit the kingdom of God and is placed in the same list as murderers and kidnappers in 1Timothy 1:9-10. There is no escape hatch in the Greek.

G4205 PORNOS — Fornicator / Male Prostitute / Whoremonger (por'-nos)

Definition: 1) A man who prostitutes his body to another's lust for hire; 2) a male prostitute; 3) a man who indulges in unlawful sexual intercourse

This word appears repeatedly across the epistles and in the book of Revelation. It is translated "fornicator," "whoremonger," and "sexually immoral" in various versions, but the core meaning is the male who sells or gives his body to sexual uncleanness. 1Corinthians 6:9, Ephesians 5:5, 1Timothy 1:10, Hebrews 12:16, 13:4, Revelation 21:8, 22:15 — all use this word. In every case, pornos is excluded from the kingdom of God and assigned to judgment. Revelation 22:15 places them outside the holy city. Revelation 21:8 places them in the lake of fire.

G766 ASELGEIA — Filthiness / Lasciviousness (as-elg'-i-a)

Definition: Unbridled lust, excess, licentiousness, lasciviousness, wantonness, outrageousness, shamelessness, insolence

This is the word for a lust that has shed all restraint and all shame. It is not merely sinful desire — it is desire that no longer cares who sees it, that flaunts itself, that demands approval. The modern homosexual movement has made aselgeia its identity: shameless, outrageous, proud. This is the word Paul and Peter use for exactly that condition. Galatians 5:19 lists it among the works of the flesh. 2Peter 2:7 says Lot was vexed by the aselgeia of Sodom.

G167 AKATHARSIA — Uncleanness (ak-ath-ar-see'-ah)

Definition: Impurity in a moral sense; the impurity of lustful, luxurious, profligate living; used of the impurity of idolatry

Romans 1:24 says God gave them up to akatharsia through the lusts of their own hearts to dishonor their own bodies. This is the state God releases a people into when they reject Him — a deep moral uncleanness that spreads through the body, the household, the community, and the nation.

G96 ADOKIMOS — Reprobate (ad-ok'-ee-mos)

Definition: Not standing the test, not approved; rejected, worthless; that which does not prove itself such as it ought; unfit, unqualified, disqualified

Romans 1:28 — God gave them over to a reprobate (adokimos) mind. This is a mind that has been disqualified. It failed the test. It no longer processes truth correctly because it has been given over by God. The reprobate mind is not just confused — it is condemned to its own disorder. It will call evil good and good evil because it has lost the capacity to tell the difference. This is the condition God assigns to a people that refuses to retain Him in their knowledge.

APPENDIX B

Scripture Reference Index

Organized by Theme — with brief identification of each passage's role

I. The Law — God's Explicit Commands

Leviticus 18:22 — "Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination."

The direct prohibition. Two sentences. Zero ambiguity. The act is named and it is called toebah — abomination.

Leviticus 20:13 — "If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them."

The prohibition with the penalty. Both parties are held accountable. The death penalty is stated in the same breath as the act. Their blood is upon them — meaning their execution is their own fault.

Deuteronomy 22:5 — "The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto Yahweh thy God."

Cross-dressing is an abomination. The gender confusion of the modern transgender movement is not a new confusion — God addressed it in the Law and called it abomination using the same word He used for sodomy.

Deuteronomy 23:17 — "There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel."

No kadesh — no male pagan temple prostitute — was permitted among the sons of Israel. Their presence in the land was apostasy. Period.

Deuteronomy 23:18 — "Thou shalt not bring the hire of a whore, or the price of a dog, into the house of Yahweh thy God for any vow: for even both these are abomination unto Yahweh thy God."

"Price of a dog" is a Hebrew idiom for a bisexual male prostitute in pagan temples. Paganism has always included homosexuality as one of its core practices. God forbade even the money from such practices from entering His house.

— — —

II. Historical Accounts — Judgment in Real Time

Genesis 19:1-25 — Sodom and Gomorrah destroyed.

The men of Sodom — old and young, from every quarter — demanded the two visitors be brought out for sexual use. Even struck blind they groped for the door. God rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed both cities utterly. The word sodomy comes from this city. The cities no longer exist on the map.

Isaiah 3:9 — "The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves."

A people that declares its sin openly the way Sodom did — proudly, publicly, without shame — has pronounced woe upon its own soul. This is a perfect description of Pride Month.

Judges 19:22-30 — The outrage at Gibeah.

Sons of Belial in the Benjamite city of Gibeah demanded to "know" a Levite guest — the same sexual demand made by the men of Sodom. The tribe of Benjamin protected the offenders and refused to give them up. All Israel came against Benjamin and nearly destroyed the entire tribe. Defending sodomites makes you guilty with them.

1Kings 14:22-24 — "And there were also sodomites in the land: and they did according to all the abominations of the nations which Yahweh cast out before the children of Israel."

The presence of sodomites in the land is listed alongside high places, idols, and pagan groves as part of Judah's apostasy. Homosexuality and false religion walk together. Always.

1Kings 15:11-12 — "And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh... And he took away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made."

Asa was commended as a good king specifically because he took the sodomites out of the land. Their removal was an act of faithfulness to God.

1Kings 22:46 — "And the remnant of the sodomites, which remained in the days of his father Asa, he took out of the land."

Jehoshaphat, son of Asa, was also commended as a good king. He finished the purge — removing even the remnant of sodomites his father had left. Good kings remove sodomites from the land. This is the biblical model of godly civil leadership.

2Kings 23:7 — "And he brake down the houses of the sodomites, that were by the house of Yahweh, where the women wove hangings for the grove."

Josiah, one of the greatest reforming kings, demolished the houses of the sodomites that had been built right next to Yahweh's temple. They had gotten that close. Josiah tore them down. The lesson: the closer sodomy gets to the house of God, the more urgently it must be demolished.

— — —

III. New Testament — Confirmation and Expansion

Romans 1:24-32 — God gave them up / God gave them over — three times.

The fullest New Testament treatment of homosexuality. Paul traces it as the consequence of a people rejecting God: they knew Him, refused to glorify Him, changed His truth into a lie, and God gave them over to vile affections and a reprobate (adokimos) mind. Verse 32 adds that those who approve of what the sodomites do are equally under God's condemnation.

1Corinthians 6:9-10 — "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind... shall inherit the kingdom of God."

"Abusers of themselves with mankind" translates arsenokoites (G733) — the sodomite. "Effeminate" translates malakos — the soft, womanish man who takes the passive role. Both are named. Neither inherits the kingdom. There is no version of Christianity that includes a practicing homosexual in the kingdom of God.

1Corinthians 5:9-11 — "I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators... not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator... with such an one no not to eat."

Paul commands separation from those who call themselves Christians but practice sexual immorality. "Love the sinner, hate the sin" is not a biblical position. The biblical position is: do not eat with him. Do not keep company with him. Separate.

Galatians 5:19-21 — "Now the works of the flesh are manifest: Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness... they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God."

Lasciviousness (aselgeia) and uncleanness (akatharsia) are works of the flesh. They exclude a person from the kingdom of God. This is not Old Testament law. This is Paul writing to the churches under the New Covenant.

Ephesians 5:3-6 — "But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints... For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person... hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God."

Not once named among you. That is the standard for the people of God — not tolerance, not acceptance, not "they're nice people." Not once named. Paul goes on to warn: let no man deceive you with vain words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience.

1Timothy 1:9-10 — "The law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient... for whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars..."

"Them that defile themselves with mankind" is arsenokoites again — the sodomite. Placed in the same list as menstealers (kidnappers) and liars. This is how God classifies it in His law. The law exists for people like this.

Hebrews 13:4 — "Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge."

God defined marriage as a man and a woman. That bed is undefiled. Anything else — God will judge. Not might judge. Will judge.

Jude 1:7-8 — "Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities."

Sodom is set forth as an example. The phrase "going after strange flesh" is going after what is unnatural, forbidden, against the created order. These filthy dreamers despise dominion — they reject the authority of God over their bodies and their lives. The vengeance is eternal fire.

2Peter 2:6-8 — "And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an example unto those that after should live ungodly; and delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked."

God made Sodom an example on purpose. The destruction was intended to be remembered. Lot was tormented in his soul every day by being surrounded by their unlawful deeds. That is what a righteous man feels in Sodom — torment, not tolerance.

— — —

IV. Judgment — Final Accounting

Revelation 21:8 — "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death."

Whoremongers (pornos — G4205) go to the lake of fire. The second death. This is the final judgment. There is no soft version of this verse. The sodomite who does not repent ends in the lake of fire.

Revelation 22:15 — "For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie."

Outside the holy city. Dogs — a term for male prostitutes in the ancient world — are placed outside with sorcerers and murderers. Outside is not a neutral position. Outside is where the condemned are.

Malachi 4:1-3 — "For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble... and ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet."

The proud and the wicked — those whose pride in their abomination brought them to destruction — become ashes under the feet of God's people. That is the end of Gay Pride Month.

— — —

V. Prophetic Warnings — Signs and Patterns

Nahum 3:13 — "Behold, thy people in the midst of thee are women: the gates of thy land shall be set wide open unto thine enemies: the fire shall devour thy bars."

A prophetic sign of a nation in collapse: when the men become as women, the gates open to the enemy and the fire comes. Multiple translations confirm it — the Ferrar Fenton renders it: "The men in your midst shall be women!" The Dutch Staten translation says the same. When men abandon their God-given nature and role, the nation's defenses fall. We are watching this happen.

Isaiah 3:9 — "The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul!"

A nation that has stopped hiding its sin and now parades it openly — that nation has brought woe upon its own soul. The declaring of sin as Sodom is the Gay Pride parade, the corporate rainbow, the first-grade teacher, the inaugural ball for sodomites.

Psalm 139:21-22 — "Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate Thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against Thee? I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies."

David said this before God and then asked God to search his heart for any wicked way. God found none. A man who hates the enemies of God with perfect hatred is not wicked — he is aligned with God. Christians have been taught that hatred is always sin. David corrects that. Hatred of what God hates is not sin. It is faithfulness.

Psalm 83:1-9 — The conspiracy of the nations against God's people.

A prophetic psalm concerning the nations that conspire against the covenant people. It is being prayed as prophecy because it is prophecy. God who stopped Babel with confusion, who routed Midian in the night, can do it again.

2Samuel 7:10 — "Moreover I will appoint a place for My people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in a place of their own, and move no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as beforetime."

Spoken to David about a future planting — a future land for the covenant people. Applied to the westward migration of the Israelite people into their appointed land. The wicked plan to remove them. God says they are not leaving.

— — —

VI. Separation — What God's People Are Called to Do

Numbers 16:21 — "Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment."

God's command when the wicked are about to be judged: get out of their midst. Do not be standing next to them when the judgment falls. The same principle as Revelation 18:4.

Revelation 18:4 — "And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues."

The command to come out of Mystery Babylon — the false religious system that has endorsed, blessed, and institutionalized what God condemned. If your church blesses what God cursed, you are sitting in Babylon. Come out.

Ephesians 5:11 — "And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them."

Not just avoid them — reprove them. Expose them. Name them. The Christian duty is not silent withdrawal. It is to shine the light of God's Word on what the darkness is doing.

1Corinthians 5:11 — "But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator... with such an one no not to eat."

The man who calls himself a Christian brother while living as a sodomite is not to be kept company with. Not to eat with. The "love the sinner" position that refuses to separate is directly contrary to this command.

— — —

VII. Pride — Scripture's Verdict on the Word They Stole

Proverbs 8:13 — "The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate."

The fear of God produces hatred of pride. Pride is not listed here as a small failing — it is listed alongside arrogancy and the evil way as something God hates. The movement named itself after the thing God says He hates.

Proverbs 11:2 — "When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom."

Pride comes first. Shame follows. They are proud of their shame, which makes the shame worse, not better.

Proverbs 16:18 — "Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall."

Destruction. Not just a stumble. The Pride of this movement is a sign of imminent national destruction. God has not changed the order of operations.

Proverbs 29:23 — "A man's pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit."

Jesus puts pride in the same list as murder, adultery, and fornication. All of it comes from within the heart of man — no devil needed to put it there. And all of it defiles.

— — —

VIII. Final Statements — No Ambiguity Left

There is no such thing as a Christian homosexual.

Homosexuality is a satanic and pagan characteristic.

God did not make any of His children that way. It is a choice, and the choice is condemned.

God will never accept a homosexual who does not repent and turn.

The penalty of homosexuality is death — in this life by God's law, and at Judgment Day by His final word.

Those who accept, defend, celebrate, or have pleasure in those who do it share the condemnation (Romans 1:32).

"Love the sinner, hate the sin" is not a biblical position. It is a modern invention designed to produce inaction while the sin advances. The biblical position is: separate, reprove, do not eat with him, do not keep company with him, name what God named, and stand without apology on what God said.

He that hath ears, let him hear.

WHAT THE CLASSICAL COMMENTATORS AGREE ON

The covenant identity framework is not the only tradition that has read these passages plainly. The great classical commentators of the Reformed, Wesleyan, and evangelical traditions — men such as John Gill (1697–1771), Adam Clarke (1762–1832), Albert Barnes (1798–1870), Joseph Benson (1749–1821), Heinrich Meyer (1800–1873), the trio behind Jamieson-Fausset-Brown [Robert Jamieson (1802–1880), A.R. Fausset (1821–1910), David Brown (1803–1898)], John Wesley (1703–1791), E.W. Bullinger (1837–1913), the annotators of the Geneva Bible (1560 edition), and in the modern era John MacArthur (b. 1939) — differ from us on many points of covenant theology and true Israel identity. But on the question of what these specific passages say about homosexuality, they cannot escape the text any more than anyone else can. And they do not try to. On this question, the pulpit and the study agree across centuries.

On Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13: Without exception, these commentators affirm that the act is called abomination in the strongest possible terms and that the death penalty was the prescribed civil judgment of God's law. Gill calls it "a most unnatural and abominable sin" and affirms the death sentence as just and righteous. Clarke calls it "the most abominable of all unnatural crimes" and does not flinch from the penalty. The Geneva Bible notes that the prohibition is grounded in "the law of nature" itself — meaning God built the case against it into creation before He ever wrote it in Leviticus. Barnes confirms the capital sanction and offers no revision of it.

On Romans 1:24-28: All of them read "vile affections" as sodomy and lesbianism explicitly. All of them read "God gave them over" as a judicial act — a deliberate, sovereign decision by God to release a people to the degradation they chose. Barnes: "God left them to follow the wicked propensities of their own hearts... the fair and full meaning of this passage is that God abandoned them to this vice as a punishment for their idolatry." Wesley: "God gave them up — by withdrawing His restraining grace." Gill: God gave them up as a direct punishment for their contempt of Him. MacArthur identifies the three-fold "gave them over" as progressive divine abandonment — each stage representing God releasing a civilization deeper into its own chosen corruption. Meyer notes that Paul's use of the aorist tense in "gave them over" indicates a specific, definite judicial act, not a gradual drift.

On "Reprobate mind": Barnes: "a mind destitute of conscience; an abandoned mind." Clarke: "a mind rejected of God." Gill: "a mind void of judgment." All of them agree — the reprobate mind is a mind that God has cast away, not merely a confused mind that needs more information. It is under judicial sentence.

On 1Corinthians 6:9 — arsenokoites: Gill, Clarke, Barnes, JFB, and MacArthur all identify this Greek word as referring directly and specifically to those who commit homosexual acts — built, as it is, from the very Leviticus text that condemns it. None of them soften it into a vague category of sexual immorality. They name it.

On Sodom and Gomorrah: Every one of these commentators identifies the sin of Sodom as, centrally, the sin of sodomy. None of them accepts the revisionist reading that Sodom was destroyed for inhospitality. The men wanted the men. The text says it. The commentators say it.

The point is this: you do not have to be a covenant identity teacher to read these passages correctly. The mainstream pulpit has always known what they say. What it has failed to do — especially in the modern era — is say it. The knowledge has been there for centuries. The cowardice is new.
