Give Up On Gays

Posted
Editor, Times-Union:

(1) Many, many letters to the editor ago, you fulfilled your God-given command to warn homosexuals that God, the Creator, regards that practice as an abomination.

(2) Please be obedient now to Jesus' command in Matthew 7:6: "Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces." God does not want His word (the Bible) to be trampled under homosexuals' feet. His word is far too precious for that. That is exactly what they do. Please obey God by giving up on them. They show by their brazen attitudes that God has possibly given up on them and will no longer draw them to Himself (Romans 1:24,26,28). So you are wasting your time on hardened people whom God has possibly abandoned.

(3) Instead, proclaim the true gospel to people who have not hardened their hearts. Don't just invite people to add Jesus to their lives because they want to go to Heaven - that is not the true gospel. Rather, declare the absolute holiness of God, the utterly wretched sinfulness of every man in light of God's perfect holiness, and our blessed Savior's shed blood as our only means of salvation, which God so graciously provided, so that He could be both just and the justifier of the ungodly sinner (Proverbs 17:15, Romans 3:26).
