I SUPPORT THE LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY!

this shocks many people, even people i know. my friends, my family, and people from my church. and let me tell you why i do.

my question is this: why do people have so much hate in their heart for the LGBTQ+ community? an answer i get very often is “because it is a sin”, but, do we not sin daily? we make mistakes and we sin, just like everyone else. who are we to judge? that’s our Father’s job.

i accept everyone the way they are! all are welcome here!

... Read moreThe LGBTQ+ community often faces misunderstanding and hostility, even within religious circles. This article emphasizes the importance of love and acceptance, challenging the notion that being LGBTQ+ is sinful. It's crucial to foster open dialogues about faith and sexuality, recognizing that everyone makes mistakes and deserves compassion. Many Christians are reevaluating traditional beliefs, advocating for inclusivity within their communities. Engaging with LGBTQ+ individuals can lead to enriched lives, as understanding diverse experiences helps cultivate empathy. As societal norms continue to evolve, faith leaders and communities are encouraged to embrace a message of love, focusing on the core tenets of Christianity. This shift can create a more welcoming environment for all, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. By learning about the struggles faced by LGBTQ+ individuals and prioritizing acceptance over judgment, we can work together to build a society rooted in love and understanding.

I love that you think that way. My girlfriend and I have been together for 2 years and there has definitely been some hard moments from people who disagree with who we are. Thank you for spreading this positivity!! <33

A text box summarizes that 'homosexual' wasn't in the Bible until 1946, verses are about power/abuse/ritual law, and modern scholars say none condemn consensual LGBTQ+ relationships.
A text box discusses Leviticus 18:22 & 20:13, explaining 'abomination' meant ritually unclean, not morally evil, and it was about ancient Israelite purity laws, not consensual same-sex relationships.
