The Recent Events in Orlando: Don’t Be Deceived

By now, most will have heard about the attack at the Pulse Nightclub, which is a gay nightclub, in Orlando, Florida, that occurred last Saturday. Although the mainstream media would like people to believe their version of events there are several facets to this tradgedy that must be looked at in detail. It should come as no surprise to those that view Southwest Prophecy Ministry’s Website that both Hillary Clinton and Mr. Obama wasted little time in trying to use the incident to call for more gun control even though the shooting took place in a gun free zone. It should be noted that the terrorist attack in San Bernandino, CA also took place in a gun free zone. That is not a coincidence. However, let me get to the back to the title and why I am writing this article in the first place.
Let me be blunt. I have seen in the last few years a very dangerous trend has occurred within the Church which is a softening of its stance on homosexuality and other sexual sins in general. The trend has progressed to the point that some Bible-believing churches have unwittingly fallen down the slippery slope of heresy. It should be spiritual instinct for real Christians to go to GOD’s Word to know what our Heavenly FATHER has commanded and instructed about any subject. For HIS Word is not only inerrant but all sufficient, Amen. The Book of Leviticus is where we will go to first.
Leviticus 18:22-30 (KJV throughout)”22Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. 23 Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion. 24 Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you: 25 And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants. 26 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations; neither any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you: 27 (For all these abominations have the men of the land done, which were before you, and the land is defiled;) 28 That the land spue not you out also, when ye defile it, as it spued out the nations that were before you. 29 For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people. 30 Therefore shall ye keep mine ordinance, that ye commit not any one of these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am the Lord your God.”
Fornication is sin but GOD in HIS Word clearly spells out to the Jewish people that homosexuality is not just a sin, yea rather, it is an abomination! Men lying with men and women lying with women are acts that constitute a defying of GOD’s created order. Fornication is for sure a sin also but GOD made man to be with woman.
Genesis 1:27-28 “27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.”
Ephesians 5:3 “3But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints”
Praise GOD for HIS Word! However, to hear a sermon today based on that passage from Leviticus a believer will have to visit many different churches to do so. Many churches, who fancy themselves as Bible-believing, either don’t preach about homosexuality at all, i.e. dodge the issue to not offend anyone. Or, they skirt the issue another way, by saying all sin is sin, and that we have to love the sinner. Yes, we are to reach the sinner, or homosexual. However, how did The LORD JESUS CHRIST treat the woman at the well in John 4? HE confronted her about her sin and probably by most churches’ standards today was not sensitive enough or was offending in the way He directly confronted her about her sin. The LORD JESUS CHRIST is our perfect example to follow. Therefore, we are to confront and resist sins no matter where they fall in the rebellion spectrum and yes that means hurting feelings and offending sinners because in doing so, a Christian will be loving them by confronting them about their sins, which is what is killing them and condemning them to hell.
When I first heard about the events down in Orlando, my first thought was that Obama and all the allies of the homosexual movement would see the incident as a two-pronged sword to both try to further legitimize homosexuality and push for all sorts of treasonous gun control measures. One only needs to look at Obama’s statements after the incident that he certainly wasted little time in politicizing the attack. I find it interesting, though not surprising,how he always does this after a tragedy, whether it is the BP oil rig explosion, or Sandy Hook, or the attack on the Pulse Nightclub. It is not about reaching out to those that experienced hurt or loss, it is all about exploiting the incident to further his political agenda. He seems to have a history of doing that spans his entire political career.
My great concern now is that this attack in Orlando is a false flag attack meant to accomplish several things at the same time. One, it comes right on the heels of Obama’s misstep of trying to push the transgender/bathroom, i.e. gay agenda down everyone’s throat just like gay marriage. One only need look at what is happening to Target, Inc. to see where the majority of Americans stand on this subject, and it is not where Obama and the gay lobby stand. Second, Obama and the Left’s unending desire to take every firearm away from the American People is another aim of this attack along with tapping into everyone’s cell phones. Remember San Bernandino and the subsequent attempts by the Government to get Apple. Inc. to hand over their encryption codes? Third, this is another attempt by the Left to attack the true Church and further legitimize the perversion known as homosexuality. Remember the deadly shooting at the African American Church in South Carolina last summer? Right after the incident, The Confederate Flag became something worse than the Nazi Symbol even though most of the men who fought under that flag, including my ancestors, were not part of that horrible evil of slavery.
Brothers and sisters, be ye not deceived! Do not let some mealy-mouthed pastor tug on your emotions. Yes, all of us should mourn for the 49 gays that were murdered because they died in their sins and will now die eternally. We should also pray for the 51 survivors that The HOLY SPIRIT will convict them, and they will turn to JESUS who alone can set them free from the bondage of homosexuality. However, we can do these things without giving legitimacy to a sin GOD calls an abomination in HIS Holy Word. I can only imagine how Obama and his allies will now attack CHRIST’s Bride, the true Church, in order to get her to give her stamp of approval to this perversion.
One thing though the Left has a problem with in this attack is that facts about attacker do not play into their plan, for he was Muslim and gay. http://www.palmbeachpost.com/news/news/orlando-shooter-omar-mateen-was-gay-former-classma/nrfwW/ Actually, I happen to be privy to just how prevalent homosexuality is within the Muslim Religion due to a deployment to Afghanistan and from the research done by Dr. Scott Lively, who has been on the vanguard of fighting the good fight against the whole Gay Movement. Here are some websites from Dr. Lively, http://www.scottlively.net/ http://www.defendthefamily.com/. I highly recommend you view these websites in light of the recent events.
In conclusion, let me reiterate that we are to reach all those that are lost with the Gospel, as per Mark 16:15. However, we obey The LORD’s Great Commission by confronting the sinner, not edifying them in their sins.
