POPULAR CULTURE’s OPINIONS DON’T CHANGE GOD’s WORD: EXCERPT FROM “THE FATHER’s HEART ON HOMOSEXUALITY”..
*God's Immutable Laws Dismantles The Lies Of Popular Culture Every Time! But Will We Reject The Truth Of The Scripture To Have It Our Own Way, To The Detriment of Civil Society"?
Facebook Family: Please stop demonizing, indoctrinating and politicizing about the LGBTQIA community and the various issues that must be addressed from a human, moral and scientific standpoint..
Because, if we're going to "coexist" for the purpose of "civil society", being a "good neighbor" that takes on the belief that "it takes a village", means we ultimately should not be isolating and polarizing ourselves from one another based upon race, religion, sex, or creed.
"Bible-Believing Christians" or the Christian Community (Christendom) should NOT have strong opinions, preferences or personal world views that differs or is incongruent with what God's Word (The Holy Bible) says about "how" we should be governed, and what we should embrace as "truth"!
There is such a thing as "cultural truth" in the context of a person's beliefs, experiences and values, which makes certain things a reality "to them".
Because, the fact that all too often, it's unprincipled and scatterbrained ideologies, ontologies, or philosophies of people that governs what they think (their "lens") concerning various issues — not just LGBTQIA community; which at some point becomes indefensible and irreconcilable — logically speaking, from the standpoint of providing a substantive argument or justifiable reason for supporting "it"...Whatever the "it" is!
But, its also important to explain the difference between "biblical truth" and "cultural truth", which represents both the natural and the spiritual laws and principles that governs "biblical truth" and all of life that "are" inerrant, immutable and infallible; know matter who, what, how, or when the culture or society says different; based upon the limitation surrounding our own human experience and "personal feelings".
Sadly, no matter how "well meaning" and heartfelt some of our experiences may be, dramatically altering, changing or lowering the standard of both our "human and civil rights" to appease "an experience" that is historically and scientifically disproven or false — without empirical evidence, is dangerous, devastating and demoralizing to people (generally speaking), practitioners, and those "personally impacted" by the said issue, because it provides NO REMEDY for their pain, no matter what any proponent has to say about it.
THIS is why "I believe" Almighty God inspired our "flawed Founders" of the United States of America, to incorporate the Judeo-Christian ideals concerning "the right of conscience" to be placed in our founding documents..
The fact that many "secular" academicians, scientific bodies, and practitioners are now calling "proven science" (that which is: empirical, observable, and historically accurate) unimportant or irrelevant to "how" we treat a minority of the population that desires — "special laws", "special treatment", and a "radical redefinition" of what is much deeper than "personal preference" and "lifestyle choice".
So, we should NOT confuse the difference between "racial prejudice" (being "born" black) and "dissenting agreement" around LGBTQIA issues (being "born" gay) as a fundamentally sound reason for forcing "special rights" and "blanket protections" around these things that requires much more: Divine Wisdom, balanced judgment, and principled decision making that's "less" controversial and inconsistent in many respects..
Should the LGBTQIA Community be "ignored", ostracized or silenced? ABSOLUTELY, NOT!
Should the changing of laws be done to appease some politician or religious "soap box"? ABSOLUTELY, NOT!
BUT, it's ONLY the "extreme ideologies" and "aggressive postulating" by proponents or opponents alike, that tries to force our choices onto others, which needs to be confronted and intentionally "weeded out"! WS-3
