. Proverbs 30:18-19.

18 Three things are hard to me, and the fourth I am utterly ignorant of. 19 The way of an eagle in the air, the way of a serpent upon a rock, the way of a ship in the midst of the sea, and the way of a man in youth.

Okay you all I'm totally lost as I suspect he is too.

Some translations say something like. “The way of a young man with a woman.”

Anyway,the pastor is being quite creative in his interpretation.

Satan loves to quote and twist God’s word.

This person is deceived.

In my humble opinion, this verse has nothing to do with the "complexity" of human sexuality and heterosexual relationships. It illustrates the confounding shamelessness of the adulteress in verse 20. That is, the aforementioned four examples illustrate a concealed, trackless course. The adulteress wipes her mouth and denies her wrongdoing.

Of course, the senior pastor has to conveniently pull verses 18 and 19 out of context.

The “pastor” can’t even read correctly. Proverbs 30 is written by Agur....not Solomon. It’s in the first verse of the chapter.
Plus, Agur is talking about a man and a woman. If el pastor wants to see what God’s word says about sodomy he would have to go to other books of the Bible.
Get outta’ that church as fast as possible, the lad is an incompetent.

A megachurch?

A church with an audience not a congregation.

A entertainment venue.
