Gay apostolics?

Hey all, Jeff here. I know that I haven't posted a lot lately. As usual I've been busy with school, which I am thankful for. I do read the posts quite often and you all are a great bunch of people. I'm just not as opinionated as I used to be and don't post as often as I should I suppose.

I was curious about something. What do you all think about the gay apostolic movement that has been going on? There is the National Gay Pentecostal Alliance out of Michigan, the Reconciling Pentecostals of AZ and FL, and the New Life Community Church in Indiana run by an ex-UPC minister, Randy Duncan, who I understand is a great friend of the Manguns out of Alexandria, LA.

Re: Gay apostolics?

I think most here agree with the bible. What does light have to do with darkness?


Gay apostolic is an oxymoron.


you cannot be gay (active in the gay lifestyle) and saved. If a person is a practicing homosexual and wants to be saved, they need to repent, find a good church and stop sinning.


any other questions?

That sums it up rather nicely!

I don't think that we should dismiss these people so readily.

Dismiss? What do you propose? That we accept them as fellow Christians?

Re: Gay apostolics?

Well I'm not sure because the Holy Ghost moves in areas where sometimes we are not willing to go ourselves. We in pentecost are quick to judge a person by labels not knowing the lives of the individuals. I'm certainly not here trying to stir the dust. I'm just trying to understand.

Practicing homosexuality is not a "label" used to judge anyone. It is an act, a sin, and one that is specifically discussed in the Bible. The act has already been judged in clear terms.
