LGBT Activists Vow to Shut Down Christian Ministry, 'Your Faith be Damned'

No longer content with widespread acceptance, activists are fighting to eliminate any program aimed at helping those struggling with same-sex attraction or gender identity

OKLAHOMA CITY, April 3, 2018 /Christian Newswire/ -- "The level of hatred and bullying is not like anything we've seen," says Stephen Black, who lived as a gay man for 8 years, over 35 years ago, and now Executive Director of First Stone Ministries is in the crosshairs of gay activists.

Black is the author of a ground-breaking book that reveals that 70-percent of people who want freedom from a destructive same-sex lifestyle find it. In Freedom Realized Black and his colleagues examined 25 years of case files and found incontrovertible evidence that people can and do change.

On April 6, First Stone Ministries (firststone.org) is hosting a public screening of the documentary film, Tranzformed: Finding Peace with Your God-Given Gender (tranzformed.org/). "This documentary is about 15 people who were unhappy as homosexuals and transgendered and wanted more in their relationship with Jesus Christ," says Black. Gay activists have already sent death threats to a Michigan pastor and his family and are now setting their sights on Black.

Gay advocate and protestor, Sara Cunningham, vowed to close First Stone Ministries (she appealed for a $25,000 grant from Starbucks for her mission). Her goal is to mobilize and eliminate any mention of the possibility of change, even if people want it and even if it means a transformed life. "To agree to disagree on this issue and this type of ministry is no longer acceptable," says Cunningham. But Black sees it differently, "In the last ten years, there has been an increasing attack on the gospel-centered message of freedom from homosexuality." Activists are intent on shutting down any counseling that leads to new life in......

The rabid dogs continue to get more rabid. They will do anything to shut down different points of view on the ‘gay/transgendered’ situation.

One of my friends is ex-gay. It’s like any addiction, people struggle with it, but it is a self-destructive lifestyle and it can be overcome.

Of all the misfits in the progressive coalition, the homosexuals are the nastiest, most violent of the whole steaming pile.

Same here, I will generally do without, if they are the only option.

I have a friend who lived as a lesbian for 50 years.

Went to visit my Mom and this woman walks up gives me a hug like she knows me and a kiss on the cheek.

I was stunned.

This was a friend I hadn’t seen a couple years. She lost all her weight, quit drinking and drugs and is reborn.

She looks back at all the wasted energy, unnecessary anger, etc and wonders how she ever got that crazy.

She discovers men and dates frequently.

She is way happier and doesn’t deal with the drama of her former “Community”.

Yeah.

Gender is "fluid" unless you want to "flow" back to your normal gender.

It's all about "choice" unless you choose to get your lifestyle in harmony with your faith commitment.

It's absolute "self-expression" unless the self you want to express is Christian (or Jewish or even just natural.)

It's "tolerance" and "acceptance" except for somebody who wants to be "cisgender" and straight.

We all have to welcome "change" unless the change is have the sexual normalcy you could recognize in any healthy thriving animal.

We have to fight this --- for the honor of God and the future of the human race.

A gay friend of mine confided in me that he was tormented by his sexuality, that he hated the promiscuity of the lifestyle and his inability to establish a close, personal relationship with anyone. He committed suicide.

Only one way to deal with rabid animals. They have asked for it.
