I am well familiar with those verses. I have lectured, taught and preached them many times. They deal with one of the multitudes of sins which are washed away and forgiven as a result of repentance and acceptance of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This man clearly states that homosexual conduct is a sin, that he has repented of that sin, accepted Jesus’ grace and he does not do it any more. This is exactly what Jesus calls us to do. (”Repent and believe” - it’s the very first imperative Jesus preaches in the book of Mark. Every Christian has a similar story although each had their pet sins to repent of. The fact you are judging this man for sins repented of and forgiven makes me assume YOU are not a Christian.

I never watched the video (and, still haven’t), so, I assumed he was still homosexual. Better title would have been, “Former same-sex attracted pastor...”.
No, I’m not a Christian. I’m converting to Chassidic Judaism.

Why would you believe this guy? Come back and talk to me in a couple of years and I’ll reconsider. Also I hope he is no longer a pastor.
