God will not put up with this !



TO TOLERATE HOMOSEXUALS IS EVIL.
This is what we get when we FAIL to OBEY God.
For it is written: Those who support homosexuals are against our Heavenly Father and His Son Jesus Christ.
These anti Christ people only bring destruction on us ALL.
I have NO sympathy for homosexuals!

Homosexuality is a "Mark" of disobedience.
Someone once asked The answer is in the definition of "REPROBATE". And the reason"why" is given in the Bible.

God has a cure for homosexuals.

"Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect
that God is just,
that his justice cannot sleep forever."

Ned Flanders and Reverend Lovejoy can finally make it legal.

The Episcopalians need to rebrand to increase membership. It should be the “Very Gay Church of America”. Everyone will know who they are.

I have been attending a PCA church for several years. I was an Elder in the PCUSA and left in the mid 90’s, never looked back.

Gays will not FLOCK to any Church outside of the chance to have their ‘special day’ codified by a former Christian rite. They will not be spending any excess time in the pews on Sunday. After all the rest stop hook ups all happen after midnight on the weekends and getting up early with an injured rectum is difficult.

Or so I suspect.

I guess the Lord already ruled out water, that's why we have the rainbow as a sign. The real rainbow, that is, not the gay rainbow with it's limited colors. So when he destroys us as he must, then I guess fire or ice would do. If the Lord withholds judgment, then I think he owes Sodom and Gomorrah an apology

African Christians come to America as missionaries, because they consider America a large mission field.

I left ELCA when they went the way of the US Episcopals.

Any church belonging to the World Council of Churches is apostate.

Wesleyan and Nazarene are still largely OK.

He said never again will he destroy ALL man kind with water, but the quake (as in the days of Noah) will force all the liberal areas of the U.S. under the ocean (water will rise due to land displacement), and most muslim countries will never be seen again. There's also meteorites/hail storms (fire and brimstone)and plagues to get the rest of them inland.

Notice the liberals are gathering together in liberal areas (because they can't stand living in conservative areas anymore). The conservatives are moving into Conservative areas (to get away from the liberal fascism and filth).
The sheep are being separated from the goats - the wheat from the chaff, so Gods people will escape the deluge and not be harmed.

"Then I heard another voice calling from heaven, "Come away from her, my people. Do not take part in her sins, or you will be punished with her." ( Revelation 18:4)

The Episcopal Church has just identified itself as an apostate church.

Fine. Let the Episcopalians do what they want to do. It's on them.

The question is -What's going to happen to religions that object to performing gay marriages?

We were getting signatures to get the marriage amendment on the ballot and we asked a bunch of old women if they would sign. They refused. Outside in the parking lot there was always a vehicle with left leaning stickers on it.

From that day we left. Told the rev why too.

Persecution, for all but Islam.
