Why are many LGBTQIA+ people far more likely than “straight cisgenders” to be socialists? In Isaiah 5:1–5, God offers the start of an answer:

From the opposite side of the equation, Marxists embrace the LBGTQ movement because it is a useful tool.
Homosexuals are the tools and the Marxists are the tool wielders.
As an aside, the Marxists are also tools. Behind them is a collective cabal that is using the Marxists to establish a dictatorship. This cabal isn't interested in collectivism or politics. It is interested in pure power.
This was explained clearly by Chairman Mao (who was not a true believer in Marxist/Leninist doctrine) when he said that communism was just a way of strengthening his totalitarian grip on China by replacing the thousands of Chinese religions with one single ideology--communism.
Yes something must be destroyed if it cannot be assimilated or bent to their will. They are succeeding in all 3 however.
We either accept all of Deuteronomy and start stoning people for homosexuality alongside men who cut their hair or we dont.
Jesus denied carrying out the law by preventing the stoning of a adulteress woman, claiming " let him who is without sin throw the first stone".
It has opened the gatway for all sinners to defend their sins with " You cant judge me, only God can, so take your bible elsewhere".
So, where does Christianity stand today? Can anyone speak out against sin without running into people who can quote one or 2 scriptures and throw your accusations out the window?
the answers. - Matthew 7:6, Matthew 10:16, 2 Corinthians 6:14-18
The LGBTQ movement has bent many church denominations (like the United Methodist Church) to their will by basically reinterpreting Scripture to say that homosexuality is not a sin.
I have read their arguments and they bend Scripture into pretzels to reach the desired conclusion. For example, the old favorite that Sodom's sin was "lack of hospitality." If that's the case, God might soon nuke some hotel chains that are letting their standards slip.
Thanks for writing that very accurate summary. I’ve had several people look at me like I’m nuts when I’ve tried to explain that very scenario. Some people are simple-minded.
Atheistic totalitarian authoritarian fascism - new world order.
The article talks about Isaiah 5 regarding property, and that’s fine, but since we’re talking Isaiah, what is coming is more like Isaiah 6:
Isaiah’s Commission
6 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord, high and exalted, seated on a throne; and the train of his robe filled the temple. 2 Above him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying. 3 And they were calling to one another:
“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty;
the whole earth is full of his glory.”
4 At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke.
5 “Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty.”
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. 7 With it he touched my mouth and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.”
8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?”
And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”
9 He said, “Go and tell this people:
“‘Be ever hearing, but never understanding;
be ever seeing, but never perceiving.’
10 Make the heart of this people calloused;
make their ears dull
and close their eyes.[a]
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their hearts,
and turn and be healed.”
11 Then I said, “For how long, Lord?”
And he answered:
“Until the cities lie ruined
and without inhabitant,
until the houses are left deserted
and the fields ruined and ravaged,
12 until the Lord has sent everyone far away
and the land is utterly forsaken.
13 And though a tenth remains in the land,
it will again be laid waste.
But as the terebinth and oak
leave stumps when they are cut down,
so the holy seed will be the stump in the land.”

When I am confronted by people who point to severe measures required in the Old Testament, I point them to the New Testament as being the clarification of all Scripture.
It is useless to explain the concept of context in understanding the Old Testament. Defenders of LGBTQ are not interested in context.
A lot of our current problems would not exist if pastors would be clear from the pulpit about what Scripture says about homosexuality. But they often skirt the issue so as to not offend.
And socialized medical care and of course Gun Control!
Amen!
Right on! Many pastors believe Christians should “stay in their lane” and not criticize sinful behavior
A person who had the opportunity to explain to a sinner how he could be saved but refused to do so (for whatever reason) might be in very deep trouble.
It's a little like a lifeguard who is too busy flirting with the girls on the beach to notice a drowning child just off shore.
I wouldn't want to be in their shoes.

Ping.
Same here.
When people who haven't studied Marxism hear you speak of what Marxists are doing in America to destroy our system of government, they think it sounds a bit like a conspiracy theory.
That's just human nature I guess.
People who don't scratch beneath the surface when doing their homework (if they even do their homework) think everything is just hunky-dory.;-)
My own brother is what I would call a lazy thinker. He has always thought I am just making mountains out of molehills. I stopped talking with him about it. He's a very smart guy in his own way...just not studious.
Yeah and I don’t think guys like Tim Keller Russell Moore Beth Moore and their types are Christians. They so all they can to destroy faith with their woke message with Jesus sprinkled on the top
I am a former NYer. I know he has brought many souls to Christ.
Thankfully guys like Shane Idleman and Franklin Graham are good faithful servants to the Lord Jesus Christ.
Their reasoning goes like this: We do not want to alienate homosexuals or trans people so we just won”t talk about it from the pulpit. Jesus calls us to be salt and light in a wicked culture. Some pastors like Jeffries from Texas have grown because they speak out on social and cultural degredation!
God can use anything and anyone to bring people to Christ. Keller pushing Dems and woke ideology as he minimizes abortion is not something a follower of Christ would do.
