NBA veteran center Jason Collins comes out as gay in Sports Illustrated article.
Everyone, it seems, supports Jason Collins coming out of the closet and proclaiming to the world that he is a gay man.
Truth is truth, and if Jason is gay, and he wants the world to know it, so be it. After all, we live in a free country, and we are free to choose any lifestyle that we desire as long as it doesn’t harm our neighbors.
President Obama, former President Bill Clinton, Kobe Bryant, Billie Jean King, Martina Navratilova and many others (many of whom are gay as well) all support him in his coming out. They say of him that he is brave and is doing society a great service. White House spokesman, Jay Carney, called Collins' decision courageous and said the administration views it as another example of progress and evolution in the U.S. as Americans grow more accepting of gay rights and same-sex marriage.
I’m sorry, but they are all wrong. The Bible states in Leviticus 18:22; You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination.
For the past fifty or sixty years, Americans seemed to have had the "live and let-live attitude" toward homosexuality. The truth be known, this phrase should be stated; the "sin and let-sin attitude." In other words, “I won’t notice your abomination if you won’t notice my abomination, and we can abominate all we want and no one will be the wiser. It is all about what feels good.” I believe that this same attitude was prevalent just prior to the flood. God wiped out all of mankind except for Noah and his family because of sin. This attitude was prevalent in Sodom and Gomorrah, and we know what happened there.
To a greater degree than the abomination of homosexuality itself, is the abomination of our Nation refusing to acknowledge God as Sovereign. The fact of us saying that we have evolved into a people that knows better than God is the root of our problem. With this faulty attitude things will get progressively worse. We can already see the decline of our Nation’s morals of what was once a great Nation.
“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth.” ~Romans 1:18
“For this reason, God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature, and the men, likewise, gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error. And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done.” ~Romans 1: 26-28
In order to remain safe and secure one must have an anchor point and mine is the Holy Scripture and Truth. I am not homophobic. I have friends who are probably gay. I haven’t discussed their sexual behavior any more than I would discuss the sexual behavior of my heterosexual friends or their toilet habits for that matter. But, I’m not so ignorant that I call what is right wrong or what is wrong right. That would be refusing to acknowledge God as Sovereign. Human beings sin, and that is bad enough, but for one to say that a sin isn’t really a sin it a very deceitful abomination. If your anchor is set on a lie, you will be lost and adrift forever.
