A California pastor is looking for a job after facing backlash over a church sign that affirms the biblical definition of gender and marriage.

Pastor Justin Hoke of Trinity Bible Presbyterian Church in Weed, California, posted a new church sign in early January. The sign read: "Bruce Jenner is still a man. Homosexuality is still sin. The culture may change. The Bible does not."

If you are stuck in a church that has jettisoned truth (God's Word), come out. Do not be a partaker of her plagues. This pastor has been blessed by God.

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.

Doesn’t he know? The only thing considered a sin in California is being a conservative.

Conservatives will soon need “sanctuary city” status in California.

The Bible is not around to keep up with what’s trendy. God is Old School. WAYYYY Old School. Better to be right with God than right with the dumbmasses.

I was discussing this last night with some Christian friends. We agreed with what the sign said and firmly disagreed with the church leaders for firing the pastor for his improper thoughts.

A Baltimore based pastor does a radio spot every day on a local talk station. The same day this story happened, he was talking about the shameful Mattel toy company caving in to the homosexual agenda and making same sex Barbie products to satisfy a couple of perverts.

One of the sodomites, as the pastor called them said “love is love.” The pastor responded “and sin is sin.

I’m no scholar, but I’m not sure that being a homo is sinful. I’m pretty sure committing homo acts is.

Trinity Bible Presbyterian Church in Weed, California . . .

Pastor Hoke's overseers are either smoking weed or they have apostatized from the faith. Which is it?

Committing homosexual acts makes you a homosexual, just like committing adultery makes you an adulterer. Homosexual thoughts does not make you a homosexual. Jesus Christ can save men from all of these things...

*If you are stuck in a church that has jettisoned truth (God's Word), come out. Do not be a partaker of her plagues. This pastor has been blessed by God.* I agree 100%. He was blessed by God when he spoke Biblical Truths. Doubly blessed, because he suffered in God's Holy Name. Sit nomen Domini benedictum

so a man who dreams and is desirous of having sex with another man is not a homo?     I did not know that.

In our modern socialist progressive workers paradise I have learned that there is no such thing as a firm sin or Heaven or Hell. Rather it’s what people want to believe and especially what he government tells them to believe.

Whatever we want to believe in is the Truth.

Other great cultures, such as the Roman Empire and probably many others, probably went through identical periods before they fell flat on their face and overtaken.

If he does not act on his inclinations, then he has not sinned.

Just a few years ago, it was still listed as a mental disorder with an ICD-9 code. Before then it was a medical problem for a over a hundred years, backed up with loads of research.

But a very very strong lobby, against the American Psychology Association got it taken out.

I liken it to other obsessive compulsive behaviors, but the problem is that the lobby is so strongly against any thing anti gay, that you don’t dare come out and say it.

You’ll lose your job, you’re position, your office etc.

Let the rest of the world bring it up, and expose the data showing the hurt and morbidity associated with it.

We all people struggling with their sexuality. But in the end it’s not a genetic condition...it’s a choice.
