Bishop Harry Jackson has urged pastors
to fight the “radical homosexual agenda.”
Speaking at the Family Research
Council's (FRC) Watchmen on the Walls conference, Jackson, a minister
at the Hope Christian Church in Beltsville, Maryland, said pastors
need to “lead the people” in fighting the “radical homosexual
agenda that is trying to take over the nation.”
Wearing a camouflage shirt and pants,
Jackson told the crowd that church leaders need “to bring a New
Testament apologetic on why homosexuality is not the will of God, why
God didn't make anyone that way, and why it's all right to speak out
and keep on speaking.”
“We're not just fighting a political
battle, but we're dealing with principles and powers and this present
darkness in the land,” he
added.
Jackson was a leader in speaking out
against marriage equality in Maryland and Washington, D.C., where gay
and lesbian couples won the right to marry legislatively. Voters in
Maryland later upheld the law approved by lawmakers.
First of all, let's just add, NOM pays this anti-gay fascist 20K a year to preach his hate.
Secondly, he just said Jesus is a liar, not exactly the place a so called Christian should want to find themselves.
See, Jesus did say something about homosexuals, he did so by using the terminology of the day...and just to torment those Christians who seem to like following this blog, just so they can try and set me straight (pun intended) I'm not telling you what he said, instead I'm gonna let you stew awhile over it.
Let's see if your smart enough to figure it out!

and God didn't make anyone black either . . .
Jesus called them eunuchs (Matthew 19:10-12). But it all starts with Matthew 19:3-9 when a disciple asked Jesus about divorce. It’s amazing what sticks in your head having gone to a private Christian school.
Almost correct...
Matthew 19:12:
For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.
Interestingly enough, born eunuchs is also the terminology the Romans used too in referring to homosexuals...their description:
Men born without a sexual desire for women.
An apt description from two cultures (and there were others as well) since neither the Jews or the Romans had a single word for homosexuals.
He called them People. Jesus didn't have a "name" or "word" for homosexuals. After your reply I went to the Bible I got from my grandparents (I love doing research) and went to a verse that has always stuck with me and do my best to keep... Ephesians 4:32
"And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you." If life could only be that simple.
