The “holy spirit” doesn’t prompt you to take stances contrary to God’s word.

she said, it was due to the Holy Spirit’s prompting over several decades, not to mention personal experience, study and Scripture.

Hmmm. Let me think about that for a minute. Ok, I thought about it. NO. She must read a different Bible than I do. I would like to know what scripture she is talking about? I have never seen it.

A lot of these women pastors just be out there smoking the wacky weed or something I don’t know.

I am not positive either, but this may be part of the “seeker sensitive” movement. It might include a number of different issues, but this might be one.

I’m going to sound like Eric Cartman from South Park but here goes. I have a feeling the “seeker Sensitive” movement came from a bunch of hippies who were smoking weed and thought it would be a good idea to start a church. They did and that is how seeker Sensitive came about. Now those hippies smoke weed before doing a “church” service.

By the way, I have seen a few videos of seeker sensitive churches, since I would never go there in person. It reminded me of three ring circus. The only thing missing, was the fat lady singing. 😀

I was hoping they would mention scripture. Yet there was none. They’re going by feelings.

I think it’s called having a “Jezebel Spirit“ in their church.

She and her ilk are being deceived by Satan. She is opposing God’s Word. Dangerous and eternally corrupting for her and those who agree with her.

As Jesus spoke about in Revelation. This is the spirit of Jezebel infesting a mainstream church. Not a church to attend nor support with tithes and offerings, as it celebrates sin rather than preaching repentance and salvation.

Have any of these so-called LGB.... preachers read Romans 1? Romans 1, written by the apostle Paul and inspired by the Holy Spirit, makes it plain than homosexual behavior is a SIN.

If your church tolerates and presents LGB.... preachers ------------ find another church!

.......................................

The Holy Spirit would prompt no such thing against the Word who is Jesus Christ Himself. It’s blasphemy. She is under a demonic delusion. Someone earlier mentioned a Jezebel spirit, which it probably is. This woman has no business leading a flock.

All sinners even ABSDTLBGQQ or whatever are welcome in the church, BUT they need to REPENT of their sins! Not declare that God is wrong, and that they will continue to do whatever they want.

We were warned over and over.

Matthew 7:15

15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Acts20:

28 “So guard yourselves and God’s people. Feed and shepherd God’s flock—his church, purchased with his own blood[h]—over which the Holy Spirit has appointed you as leaders.[i] 29 I know that false teachers, like vicious wolves, will come in among you after I leave, not sparing the flock. 30 Even some men from your own group will rise up and distort the truth in order to draw a following. 31 Watch out! Remember the three years I was with you—my constant watch and care over you night and day, and my many tears for you.

Galatians 1: 6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:

7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

9 As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
