I can't believe I'm going to say this, but..............
If you won't allow someone on the platform to sing because they trim their hair or wear a touch of make-up, why would it be ok to allow them on the platform when you know they are openly gay?
That doesn't mean they aren't welcome in your worship services. I can come to your services with my short hair and make-up and even in slacks. Most of you would welcome me with open arms. And then pray that God would get ahold of me and shake those things out of me. I can chuckle when I say that, but you know it's true. LOL. So if you can welcome someone else who does not live the lifestyle you believe in, surely you could also welcome someone who lives the gay lifestyle. That does NOT mean you would give them a position of authority - absolutely not. But surely you would welcome any sinner.
