Six of California’s largest Christian colleges and an association of California private schools support a bill that is designed to essentially remove religious schools’ Title IX exemptions and force the LGBT agenda on them.

California Bill 1146, which has been called "the most oppressive LGBTQ anti-religious proposal in the nation," failed to pass after it was first introduced. An amended version passed the California Assembly on Wednesday, and is now before the state Senate.

Wolves...the Lord is separating the wheat from the chaff.

2 Timothy 3:3-5

Perilous Times and Perilous Men

“But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!

Not all “California Christians”, just the sellouts.
The question is whether or not these colleges are
going to be able to replace the private funds they
will be losing. Donation jars at gay bars?

Matthew 6:24:

No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

Matthew 7:13-23:

The Narrow Gate

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

A Tree and its Fruit

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

“Christian” doesn’t mean what many have made it out to mean...

In the case of these colleges - they apparently have forgotten what the word means - and it goes beyond being a “Christ-follower”.

In Acts 11 where the label is coined - used towards the DISCIPLES in Antioch. What is a Disciple, then? It implies that a person or persons are not just blind followers - but sit under the teaching of, and live the life of the one they are following.

Jesus said His disciples would be known by several things - their love one for another being one, but also that they would be known by their fruits - which includes keeping His commands.

Most of these so-called “Christian” colleges haven’t been Christian for years, even the so-called Catholic college Notre Dame. Remember they “HONORED” Obama with a honorary degree and he gave the commencement speech.

Catholic Priests persecuted at Notre Dame while abortion supporting Marxist honored.....
While a pro-abortion fanatic ( Obama ) makes a mockery of Christian doctrine by speaking and collecting honors at supposedly Catholic Notre Dame, a priest named Norman Weslin was given a less enthusiastic reception:

Beware America. This is only beginning in California. They will not stop there. Homosexuality is the new Fascism.

“...Meanwhile, the LGBTQ lobbying group Equality California is rallying its supporters by sending out an “Action Alert,” which claims that opposition to the bill is well funded, when in fact Equality California is the recipient of huge donations from AT&T, Coca-Cola, Southwest Airlines, State Farm Insurance, and other major corporations.

A $1.2 million “Transform California” campaign is in full swing, led by Equality California and the Transgender Law Center in Oakland, seeking to influence the public on LGBTQ legislation...”

"...Surprisingly, many other Christian universities were so relieved by the edit that they came out in support of the bill. As California’s Mass Resistance put it, “In the opinion of many close observers, the Christian college leaders were willing to give in because they simply don’t have the stomach to take on the LGBT lobby and Democratic machine.”

California cases go to the 9th Circuit to be rubber stamped.
