Church Mounts Billboard Atop Gay Bar Telling LGBT Community 'God Takes Pride in You'
Christian Post ^ | 7/6/18 | Leonardo Blair

A Disciples of Christ Church in San Diego that describes itself as "radically inclusive" has purchased a billboard atop a gay bar with a message to the LGBT community, declaring, "God takes pride in you, so do we!"

The Mission Gathering Christian Church first promoted its billboard endorsing gay pride on Twitter last month as something that the Bible would also treat as that which is "right and good."

"If you're looking for a sign... This is it. Our message of PRIDE coming in July. Check us out then join us to 'do what is right and good...' Deuteronomy 6:18," the church tweeted.

"And thou shalt do that which is right and good in the sight of the Lord: that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest go in and possess the good land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers," the full text of the Scripture in Deuteronomy says.

It wont be long before Christianity ceases to exist. More churches everyday are embracing homosexuality, which means they are embracing sin.

Exactly - as opposed to this reaction, which is cheering them as they march into hell. Why is that compassionate?

It’s strange that Jesus’ message wasn’t one mainly of inclusion. The default was soundly set at EXclusion, but for his grace and its activation.

Correct.
It’s been watered down since He left & here’s the result.

Isaiah 5:20 and 2 Timothy 4:3 apply.

It is impracticable, in practice illegal for churches to call out the abomination in this day, so I suppose they felt if they can’t beat’em join’em. :-|

It was Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve

According to Jewish mythology, it was Adam and Lilith. Lilith appears as Adam's first wife, who was created at the same time (Rosh Hashanah) and from the same dirt as Adam—compare Genesis 1:27. (This contrasts with Eve, who was created from one of Adam's ribs: Genesis 2:22.)

Lilith is often envisioned as a dangerous demon of the night, and for all of us familiar with Cheers, Frasier Crane's wife fit that description. ;^)

The sign should have said: God loves you. God hates what you have become. The time to change is NOW.

Well that is pretty cool!.... about the people getting saved. The group in question hanging pride billboards, well... They must mean a different God than Jesus... cause they are preaching a message other than what is found in the Bible.

DoC ping.

Sexual perversions are apparently the new normal in some DoC churches.
