And I have no doubt that as a committed Christian, Senator Ted Cruz used this opportunity (as did Christ) to tell them of repentance. Even the most vile of sodomites can be reliably and permanently cured with God-centered reparative therapy. The first step is to come clean and admit the sin and pray for forgiveness. Senator Cruz does not advocate a "big tent" nor did he (nor will he) budge an inch on the issue of sodomy. Cruz's meeting with the sodomites was no different than Christ's meeting with prostitutes.

Sure, I have a number of people around me who could use the Gospel and they have heard it from me, but they have rejected it all the same (of course, in a nice way to me). And so, after a while, you can only say it so many times when someone tells you it would be better to simply disagree and leave it at that.

There are a whole lot of people like that ... and so, in the end, you’re left with the same person you started with, when you started with the Gospel.

Now, that’s not a reason for not telling them, but it’s just to say that with the larger majority of them, you’re going to have the same person you started with.

There are a few success stories with gays, but for the most part, if you start with a gay person, and tell them the Gospel, you’re going to end up with the same person, afterwards. The real question is what do you do afterwards? Do you disown them and have nothing to do with them? I say no, but you still treat them as a person.
