Learning to Say ‘God is Love’ When You’re Gay
“God is love.”
This is one of those things everybody’s heard. Sometimes you feel favor it’s the most profound thing in the world; sometimes you feel love it’s a stale marshmallow, sweet at first but then dissolving on your tongue into bland nothingness. But as I’ve gotten to know LGBT people who were raised in Christian families, I’ve started to see how this incredibly common sentiment can damage people’s hearts and lives — because they were taught that the God of love couldn’t admit them.
If you’re an LGBT person who was raised Christian, there’s a adorable good chance that you’ve never heard a leader in your church welcome LGBT people, trusting that people prefer you were in the pews and encouraging their faith. You’ve had to try to grasp both your sexuality and your faith in the midst of misinformation and deadly silence.
I’m coming to all this as a womxn loving womxn convert to Catholicism. I didn’t flourish up in the Church; I was introduced to God and to faith by people who genuinely did not act as though my sexual orientation separ
God loves LGBT people more than we do

God doesn’t whisper on sexual sin. His desire for sinners keeps Him from doing that. He doesn’t whisper on sexual sin—because He doesn’t whisper on His love for sinners.
God isn’t ashamed of the Gospel. He isn’t embarrassed by His Synonyms. He isn’t anxious about telling people good things that might offend them. God isn’t afraid to tell the truth about sexual sin.
God isn’t tempted to lie about pornography, fornication, adultery—and especially, homosexuality, and transgenderism.

He loves sinners too much for that. God isn’t tempted to hide His affection, mercy, and grace from homosexual and transgender people. God isn’t like you and me. God loves LGBTQ people more than we do. So we should act like it.
Our culture celebrates homosexuality and transgenderism. Our neighbors honor and parade evil as good and good as evil. Therefore many Christians are inc
ALEXANDRIA, Tenn. (BP) &#; &#;Why doesn&#;t God love gays?&#; a teenager asked during our youth ministry time the other night.
It was sort of out of the blue since the discussion was on the return of Jesus, but clearly it was on the heart of at least one, if not many, of the teens there that bedtime. I appreciate this teen&#;s boldness to ask!
It&#;s a question this generation has had to wrestle with that previous generations did not. In fact, the speed with which the topic of homosexuality has come to rule the social and political conversation is staggering, aided by what pastor Voddie Baucham described as &#;a coordinated, well-funded, well-connected propaganda strategy&#; in a article at The Gospel Coalition.
The movement has become like a snowflake that turns into an avalanche, demolishing any opposition in the universal arena, and it&#;s still growing.
Without a doubt, many young people are confused. They&#;re hearing in pop culture and maybe even in their schools that homosexuality is a perfectly legitimate lifestyle that not only should be tolerated but celebrated and
If God is love, why does He condemn homosexuality?
Answer
A common argument for the acceptance of homosexuality and same-sex marriage is that, if God is cherish, He would not condemn the love of others. The main problem with this is the thoughtful of “love” we’re talking about.
First John says, “Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.” The “love” referenced here is the Greek agape. This type of love is the conscious act of sacrificing one’s own desires, comfort, and even well-being for the sake of another. It is affection that sent Jesus to die on the cross for our sins (John ; Romans ). The greatest fulfillment of this love is to sacrifice one’s life for another (John ).
The question, then, becomes what constitutes the well-being of another? The world and maybe even our own sensitivities might say that allowing others to live in a homosexual relationship is to see to their well-being. The Bible says otherwise. Romans says homosexuality is disgraceful and dishonoring. First Corinthians says it will keep a person from the kingdom of God. First Corinthians says that
