I agree. But are they speaking against the word of God? Are they claiming Jesus is NOT the savior of mankind as He proclaimed? The one true Son of God? Are they singing songs that claim otherwise?
If they’re not, then I don’t personally see a problem. Jesus walked with prostitutes and lepers in his day and healed and forgave them all. We will not win this war if we do not rally around the message of loving your neighbor.
The LGBT student singing on stage about the love of Jesus Christ is doing a million times more for us than the far right individual shutting doors on those they disagree with. The day that I am perfect is the day I will judge that student, until then carry on soldier.
I judge by the same measures I expect to be judged by.
I personally try to follow the Word of God with every dot and iota. If you aren’t convicted the same way then I’ll judge you for it too because I expect to be judged by the same measure. It’s not our job to reduce the Word of God to save people, it is the Father that draws them.
Here is a true statement that should be accepted without question: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, and I am the worst of them.
If Paul the apostle is the worst of sinners what does that make you?
Mark 10:17-27 reads
17 As Jesus was setting out on a journey, a man ran up to Him and knelt before Him, and asked Him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do so that I may inherit eternal life?” 18 But Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone. 19 You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not give false testimony, Do not defraud, Honor your father and mother.’” 20 And he said to Him, “Teacher, I have kept all these things from my youth.” 21 Looking at him, Jesus showed love to him and said to him, “One thing you lack: go and sell all you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” 22 But he [a]was deeply dismayed by [b]these words, and he went away grieving; for he was one who owned much property.
If you claim to be following every “dot and iota” then let me ask you: have you even followed every one of the Ten Commandments since your youth like this rich young ruler?
Have you sold all you have and given it to the poor?
Remember that if you lie you’re even more of a terrible sinner…
Find me footage of something you think contradicts the word of God at this event and connect it back to scripture. Until you can do that I will struggle to understand how this event was negative to Christianity in any way.
Matthew 7:1-3
“Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
The point of this scripture is to warn you not to judge others. At some point in your life you will realize you do not want to be judged in the same way you judge others.
2 At dawn he appeared again in the temple courts, where all the people gathered around him, and he sat down to teach them. 3 The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group 4 and said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5 In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?” 6 They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him.
But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger. 7 When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” 8 Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground.
9 At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there. 10 Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?”
11 “No one, sir,” she said.
“Then neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Go now and leave your life of sin.”
Thank you for this. I love this community, but we often try to find the negative in everything. This is a great event, they’re praising Christ.
Yes.. it beats drag story time like someone mentioned
Speaking against the Word of God IS negative...

Is the sin of LGBT worse that adultery?
John 8:1 but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.
2 At dawn he appeared again in the temple courts, where all the people gathered around him, and he sat down to teach them. 3 The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group 4 and said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5 In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?” 6 They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him.
