I think about her from time to time. And her husband, who was having a terrible time with his health and health
care. I remember when she left the first time, and made a thread about it detailing some reasons why, swearing
she was never coming back. Of course a number of people weighed in... she did not wait long before she was
arguing with anyone who said anything she did not like, which was just about everyone. I will never forget
@tourist 's post to her. I didn't get it at first: of course, you have nothing to do with the way people speak to you...
or something very much along those lines. Any way, I have called N6 out on his propensity to exaggeration a number
of times. Obviously he sees nothing wrong with it, and others -those who side with him when he is against me- brush
it off as if dishonesty is acceptable. I see through such tactics. Perhaps they have no idea how transparent they are.

Friends, we must love the LGBT people enough to tell them that homosexuality will be judged, while also letting them know that God loves them and wants them to be saved. We Christians are God's representatives here on earth, and thus we must learn to love like He does: relentless against sin, but loving towards people.
Let's all boldly share the gospel so that our gay friends can be saved. from 'Christian Today'.
In fact, there are numerous accounts of people who previously identified themselves within the LGBTQ+ community who have experienced a transformation through Jesus Christ. They now have chosen the identity of Christ rather than be identified by their sexuality – we recommend reading some of their stories – CHANGED Movement.
Churches should welcome and reach out to the LGBTQ+ community in the same way they would for anyone else – we are all sinners in need of the forgiveness and grace of God. It is a scandal that many within the LGBTQ+ community have, at times, been made to feel so alienated from the church by an excessive focus on this issue while often being far more accommodating to other areas of sin.
However, this does not mean the church should redefine the boundaries of marriage or affirm the practice of LGBTQ+ relationships. The church can wholeheartedly maintain the biblical model of marriage and sexuality while remaining completely accepting of the LGBTQ+ people in the church. This is not endorsing or affirming sinful behavior – it is simply ensuring that everyone should be treated equally within the church – an issue does not have to become an identity.
...from 'The Coming King'.

Fair enough. But some churches are actually encouraging their agenda of perversion.
Churches Embrace Pride Month With Drag Queen Story Hour, Queer Proms And Gay Concerts
https://dailycaller.com/2023/06/11/...ag-queen-story-hour-queer-proms-gay-concerts/

Then we have people like Amy Grant also encouraging them in their perversions.
‘Gay. Straight. It Does Not Matter’: Amy Grant Takes Her LGBTQ+ Support One Step Further In New Interview
https://pridesource.com/article/amy-grant/

Pretty soon everyone will be going along with this agenda.

I don't think any sincere Christian would say we shouldn't love and accept everyone; but we shouldn't be accepting of the behavior. Unfortunately for many gay people who want to be accepted, LGBTQ+ activists have made it their mission to force Christians to affirm their perversions no questions asked. I'm all for things like the Changed Movement, at least based on what I read at their website; but the shepherds also have to guard the flock against wolves—gay or otherwise.

Could Dallas Jenkins be any more transparent? Looks like he's in full damage-control mode. The video is basically a two-hour commercial and sales pitch.

From one hour one minute on to past 1:09, Dallas and various show characters are talking about,
showing and explaining scenes from season three. Nothing at all what you say it is. Not surprising.

The gathering is for the saved, the mission field is the world. I think scripture makes this pretty clear by the instructions Paul gave the churches.

The Chosen is infused with modern culture and emotional manipulation.
No one here likes words put in their mouths, somehow it is fine to do that to Jesus.

And Yes @ResidentAlien follow the money.

Great video. He completely gets it. The only language The Chosen, Inc. understands is $$$. If the funds start to dry up they might repent; otherwise, not likely.
