Like almost every other day, Linda Harvey of Mission America dedicated her daily radio bulletin to attacking gays and lesbians along with LGBT-rights supporters, whom she claims are “misleading millions of people” by telling them that “they were born this way.” She warned that “homosexual behavior hurts the person involved” and “hurts all of society,” but don’t worry because God can help “any person who has a desire to change homosexuality or repent after an abortion.”
Harvey concluded by lamenting that people “believe many tales in this life that turn out to not be true.”
We need to speak up and challenge the acceptance of homosexual behavior. We need to have courage to risk from disapproval because the stakes are very high. Persuasive celebrities and politicians like our President are misleading millions of people. On this issue if you are not firmly grounded in the word of God you will be swayed by the narratives, the people who insist they were born this way, who really believe they cannot live any other kind of life and that it hurts no one. Yet the evidence is overwhelming that none of that turns out to be true. Homosexual behavior hurts the person involved and it defies God’s will. And it hurts all of society. Of course, our merciful God forgives any person who has a desire to change homosexuality or repent after an abortion so no one should ever feel hopeless. God does not give up on us so why should we? No, we let ourselves believe many tales in this life that turn out to not be true.
