OMFG they replied.
Timothy Meyer,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us.
In your e-mail, you surmise that we are bigots, which is defined as:
big·ot n.
One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics
and is intolerant of those who differ.
The Truth is that we cannot tolerate lies or accept falsehoods in any form,
therefore we aggressively speak the Truth by utilizing the Sword, which is
the Holy Bible, to cut through these lies and falsehoods. Although we do
not prohibit people from speaking their mind when in discussion with us, it
is meaningless to tolerate views or opinions that have no foundation. Jesus
clearly stated in John 14:6, "...I am the way, the truth, and the life: no
man cometh unto the Father, but by me." He is our foundation. We tolerate
no other way.
I agree, religion is a choice. We call upon all people to reject religion
and embrace Jesus Christ. Religion destroys, Jesus Saves! He is the the
only hope for the sinner on his way to hell.
You stated, "There are many homosexuals who live increadibly upstanding
lives, sometimes in fear of being cast out and shunned by people who share
your cause." I wholeheartedly disagree-- this cannot be further from the
Truth. Someone living in sin, openly and publically celebrating it, and
commiting abominable sexual acts are not living "incredibly upstanding
lives". The same can be said for an adulterer.
Our methods are no different then those used by the disciples in Christ's
day. We use biblical evangelism to reach the sinner, and God's Word is
certainly not propaganda, but the Truth.
Just as religion is a choice, so is homosexuality. People choose to
practice Catholicism, just as a person chooses to practice sodomy or to rim
another man's behind. I don't deny the fact that the desire exists within
the person to worship a statue of Mary, or to put a penis in another man's
anus, but simply because the desire exists does not make it right. We all
have had wrong desires. I'm sure you would agree that the pedophile has
wrong desires that are 'real'.
God's Word clearly states:
"Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination."
Leviticus 18:22
"For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women
did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise
also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one
toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving
in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. And even as
they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a
reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;" Romans 1:26-28
Homosexuals like any other sinner need to be warned of the damnation to
come. If we did not do so, we would not love them (you). Jesus warned of
hell many times over, if fact, He spoke more about hell then heaven. "And
fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but
rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell." Jesus
Christ in Matthew 10:28
You stated, "There have been homosexuals in the past who have
quote "converted" to being straight, but they are merely bisexual, and will
sacrifice any homosexual urges they have since they recieve the same ammount
of pleasure from both sexes." The Scripture declares in 1 Cor. 6:9-
11, "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God?
Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor
effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor
covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the
kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are
sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the
Spirit of our God." The point: Jesus Christ can set the homosexual free
from the bondage of sin.
You argued further, "most times, they even just do it so people like your
orginization will merely get off their backs and treat them like human
beings." That's not the reason a person is changed, rather because Christ
set them free! I agree, homosexuals are human beings made in God's image,
and were created to love and serve Him, just as everyone else.

May you become broken before God for your sins while there still is time.
We will pray that you be freed from the bondage of sin, and that you come to
know our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Thanks for writing us.
