Kim Burrell under fire for comments about gays and lesbians
SF Gate ^ | 01.02.17

NEW YORK (AP) — Gospel singer Kim Burrell says she makes "no excuses or apologies" for a sermon at a Houston church where she referred to gays and lesbians as perverted.

A tape of Burrell preaching at the Love & Liberty Fellowship Church began circulating online. She said that "the perverted homosexual spirit, and the spirit of delusion and confusion, it has deceived many men and women." She referred to specific homosexual acts as perverted.

Meanwhile, Burrell is scheduled to sing a duet with Pharrell next Thursday on the talk show "Ellen," where host Ellen DeGeneres is one of show business' most prominent lesbians. They are supposed to sing "I See Victory" from the soundtrack of the new movie "Hidden Figures."

....she referred to gays and lesbians as perverted.

WELL, that is what GOD calls it........

Leviticus 18:23
“‘Do not have sexual relations with an animal and defile yourself with it. A woman must not present herself to an animal to have sexual relations with it; that is a perversion.
Leviticus 20:12
“‘If a man has sexual relations with his daughter-in-law, both of them are to be put to death. What they have done is a perversion.(NIV); their blood will be on their own heads.

Jude 1:7
In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire.(NIV).

KJV for the Jude reference uses FORNICAITON - that might upset the Godless Liberal Wacky Marxists even more.....

King James Version (KJV) 7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

If one searches the KJV Bible for FORNICATION you get 35 Bible results.

From Yahoo Search

What is the most common Bible translation in English?
Best Answer: Although it is claimed (and probably true) that the NIV is currently the best-selling English bible, it is probably true that the King James Version is still the most common English translation - that is, it is probably still the most *owned* version (NIV has only been around for about 30 years)

In this past election, small-town America got sick and tired of being governed by people who don’t know the difference between a boy and a girl.

No Ellen deserves the criticism.

Ellen is still trying to identify as a 16 year old adolescent boy..........

Homosexuality is the very definition of perversion, although in truth, it is far worse than that.

The primary goal of the homosexual agenda is to legalize sex with children. That is what they ultimately want to achieve.

Eventually, they will try to make homosexual acts mandatory among all people. This is what they consider utopia.

How’s that for right and wrong, bud.

She said that she has never discriminated against gays and lesbians. "I love you and God loves you," she said. "But God hates the sin."

Someone tell me how that isn't biblical...

She’s got the right to witness wherever God jolly well leads her to go. Even Ellen.

She never said she HATED homos. In fact Christianity preaches (asserts that Jesus directed) to love your enemies.

She loves them enough to tell them that the devil has got them pinned down but Jesus will pick them back up.

The divine directive to witness knows no gender. As the formal leader of a local church congregation, I assert that the biblical thing is for a man to do it. However, couples can also minister together, like Aquila and Priscilla of the bible.

God bless this gal’s witness.

I hope we don’t get into a “tastes great/less filling” debate over bible translations in English. There are die hard King James aficionados. I’ve never met a die hard NIV aficionado yet.

The original Greek is “porneia” from which we get our modern word “pornography.” In modern times, “fornication” has come to mean illicit heterosexual activity, and “perversion” for more unnatural activities. The NIV has probably done the right thing here with 20th century modern English.

being fat does not constitute gluttony if it’s not extreme- the gluttony denounced in the bible was where the rich people have ‘vomitoriums’ where they coudl stuff themselves to bursting- then vomit, and stuff themselves some more— and repeat as many times as they liked- I highly doubt that Kim does this

Her size is from
1. always eating
2. never moving beyond bed, bathroom and kitchen.

She will have tremendous health problems and will probably either be institutionalized for care when she ages and can't take care of herself or she will die young.
She LEARNED that behavior from family and relatives. It didn't suddenly appear at 25 years of age.

She could get all the help she needed from Weight Watchers. Weight Watchers works.

Homosexuality is UNNATURAL. It is a perversion of sex.

100% correct.
There have ALWAYS been these perverts in human history...always.

Unfortunately now we have to have them in our face! It's LEGAL. YUCK!
Making some aberrant behavior legal DOESN'T make it right.

Somehow I doubt she will preach the truth to ellen on her show. She is there for the publicity.

She might not have to say anything more — it’s well known what she said. As for publicity, is that bad?

Actually, gluttony is not necessarily about eating too much. It is about putting created things before God.

In fact, it is only partly about food... my understanding is that Bible scholars believe that gluttony implies a much broader definition and includes anything that may be necessary for life but is done to an excess and to the point where it becomes the focus of one's life. Overeating is a good example because food is after all a good thing that is necessary for survival. Sleep and relaxation are necessary for daily rejuvenation and to relieve stress but laziness is relaxation taken to an extreme. Gluttony is often used to describe people of living with a ‘sense of entitlement’, having loose morals, and being unrestrained with what they do.

This is no different than telling people she voted for Trump and despises lefties, then going on the View. If they would have her, it is a forum the same as Ellen.

Preach that and then go on Ellen? She deserves the criticism.

Billy Graham went on the Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In show. One of the hosts asked him if he should expect a lot of criticism for being on their show, since they were known as an irreverent program.

With a smile, Billy replied, "Perhaps, but they criticized Jesus for eating with Publicans & Sinners."

At the very end of the program, with the credits starting to scroll up the screen, they asked Billy if he had "any words for all those folks out there in Television Land?"

Billy turned and looked straight into the camera and said, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have eternal life."

And the program ended.

OUTSTANDING!
