I am not so sure. With the stakes revealed as existential, gays have seemed to quickly recognize that while Christians may prefer to decline to bake wedding cakes for gays, unlike Islam, they do not want to kill gays. Christianity alone of the major faiths regards all people — including gays — as having an innate dignity and worth conferred by God. And the genuine and open-hearted shock and mourning by Christians and services by churches for those killed and wounded in the Orlando attack marks as lies the usual propaganda by the Left that Christians hate gays.
False “Christians” mourn for 49 murdered homosexuals but not for the 60 million children murdered by our government (because the people ARE the government), by abortion.
Re: “And the genuine and open-hearted shock and mourning by Christians and services by churches for those killed and wounded in the Orlando attack marks as lies the usual propaganda by the Left that Christians hate gays.”
Yes. You are correct. I disdain the media turning this into a “gay” narrative. This is about 49 Americans murdered, not “gay” Americans, or “Afro- Americans”, not “German” Americans - just Americans. I don’t agree with their sin choices, but I don’t wish them dead or murdered. That’s Westboro Baptist idiocy. We are all SINNERS. It is by God’s grace alone that any of us can be forgiven.
I don’t know this man that made the crosses, by hand, nor do I know his motives - God alone knows. But, those crosses are a symbol of Christ’s love who died for sinners - while we were yet sinners. I say, “God bless him” for demonstrating love for hurting and mourning families. God will judge in good time. The calling of Christians is to preach the truth of the Gospel, in season and out, with grace, love, and mercy, remembering that we are all sinners saved by grace.
I’m sure there were people in the Twin Towers or on those planes that slammed into the towers on 9/11 who were not believers, who were possibly homosexual - it doesn’t matter - they were Americans outrageously murdered. We can and should mourn with those remaining behind. That doesn’t mean we condone anyone’s sin - we simply weep with those who weep and mourn with those who mourn with the love of Christ.
