The Christian businesses that have stood up to the gays certainly are certainly not idolizing their business(es). Give the unrighteous an inch and they will take you leagues, not miles.
Imagine the Founding Fathers having the mind of trying to “lobby” King George III. Where would that have gotten them? (Many others did attempt this route. All they got in return was more tyranny.)
Direct the question of helping other Christians in need at Church leadership, because that is what is needed most. Suggestions such as this (with all due respect to Father Z.) only serves to divide further.
As I said, when these Christians lose their business and have no place to live, no food to eat, are you going to help them..
That part in the bible that says, if a Christian brother and sister comes to us in need and we turn them away, where is the love of God in your heart, is not just for leadership, its for all Chrstians, all of us ... Not just leadership...
