The Lord warned:

Wonderful Works Are Done By False Prophets In The Name Of The Lord:

Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Mat 7:16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
Mat 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
Mat 7:18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Mat 7:19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Mat 7:20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
Mat 7:21 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.
Mat 7:22 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?
Mat 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

False Prophets Will Be Numerous, And Very Successful:

Mat 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

2 Pet 2:1 [NIV] But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2 Pet 2:2 [NIV] Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
2 Pet 2:3 [NIV] In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.

1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

False Prophets Work Miracles That Deceive:

Mat 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

Mark 13:22 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall show signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.

Rev 13:11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
Rev 13:12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
Rev 13:13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
Rev 13:14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

Rev 19:20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.

Many Prefer The False Prophet:

2 Tim 4:2 [NIV] Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.
2 Tim 4:3 For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.
2 Tim 4:4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.

True Prophets Are Always In Harmony With Other Prophets Of God And Scripture:

1 Cor 14:32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.
1 Cor 14:37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.

They’re obviously not believers. Therefore, anything goes!!! What a religion.

I suspect they ARE believers...

Some people just put more empasis on other's sin while ignoring and justifying their own...

I get a kick out of a fat preacher who will publically criticize somone else for smoking...

God does put special enphasis on the sin of homosexuality...

Ultimately, God will say to some, "well done, good and faithful servant"...I suspect to others, he will lower his eyes and say, "Oh, it's you...Have a seat, over there around the corner"...

Would Jesus discriminate? Of course he would. He would discriminate between right and wrong. As Christians we are called upon to do the same thing. The word “Discriminate” has been usurped and monopolized by the left-wing secularists. We discriminate every day of our lives. We need to recapture the positive meaning of the word.

I just reviewed those verses, and this is going to backfire big time. Nobody who actually checks the verses is going to agree with their interpretation.

Trouble is, few people take the time any longer to check out the verses. Heretics have risen up for over two thousand years and was alway promptly put down. The difference now is that we have prominent Church leaders who don't know and don't teach what the scriptures state who agree with them. This lends a false air of respectablity to their position.

Unfortunately, this is true. Up until a couple of decades ago, when a person went to church or the synagogue, they could safely assume that their priest/pastor/rabbi held beliefs that were consistent with their own. They had no reason to expect something that contradicted what they had always been taught and believed. However, this is no longer the case and the danger, as scripture specifically warns us, is that these false teachers will "seem" sincere and this "new age" approach will appeal to many on the fringes.

I agree with you to some extent. Although I believe that the difference here is that these people are endorsing and condoning the act of homosexuality (obviously a sin in the Bible). I see that as different from sinning yet not trying to get others to sin with you (what we all do).
