The Levitical books were written in the context of that time, a nomadic people moving through a desert towards their promised land, the laws applied to an era with NO to limited medical care, grabbing the Levitical books and asking us to observe them is to show ignorance of the new testament. the Laws were not destroyed , they were superseded. The Colossians speak of eating unclean meat, and observing or not observing holy days.

This life is simple, let the gays be gay and let the others live live as normal. I can't stop anyone from being gay but I'll be damned if anyone is going to force me to associate with them or like them. The gay pastor is definitely confused, the Bible passages were taken out of context, old testaments verses written to reflect the society at that point in time. People should leave the gays alone, let's not use religion to convince them or any other thing, leave Judgment to God and control only the things we can control.

That's true....sad really.



Good...



Misreading scripture....are we?

Everybody practiced slavery back then.What God was doing here was prescribing laws for the treatment of slaves.
Besides, slaves were subject to the laws of Israel....and a Jew could be punished for harming a slave...but let's go on.




First, you are misreading the whole purpose of the verse.According to the article Slavery on the Christian Think tank website....this may refer to marriage...not slavery.Plus...there are verses stating that the lass is not to be mistreated.



Well...this refers to intimacy contact....not other forms of contact.



The altar is centrally located....at the tabernacle.Plus...the neighbours were likely to be Jews.And anyways....Christ's sacrifice negates such.



Can you work for 24/7 without dropping? NEXT!



Shellfish do accumulate all sorts of pollutants....and anyway....God no longer judges us by the Law....



You think that God ain't merciful?



Ah well....you go ahead! (We are not under law).



Some American footies are now made of synthetics. What's the issue.?





Well....Iam born again...and I still think you as a gay man are worthy of God's love.

The question is.....are you ready to please God..? Not the homophobes or the people who like gays.....God?

Are you willing to trust God even if it is irrational.

I know....I may not be gay...but I have lots of desires for the opposite sex.Yet God gave me these desires....and says I can only have one wife.Isn't fair to me....but I have to trust God somehow that he means best.

And anyway.....this life isn't all there is.

Apologies to anyone I may have hurt. Christianity is a difficult and unreasonable religion.....but then again....it commands us to believe that God loves us.....even when it does not seem so.

May modify this post....my internet connection is iffy.

The bible says a man will leave his father and mother and be with a woman not to be with a man and like wise a woman will leave her father and mother house and be with a man. Who ordained this idiot to be a pastor. If is those days in the old testament they would have stoned you to death but now if catch u say u come toast me and u be man as I be man I go bust your brain with anything

I believed you are not a gay right activist.
My question for homosexual people is: if we all join them, Shey we ll not hinder reproduction of human beings?
If we ll hinder reproduction, then every homosexual is mentally unstable!

Oroyi pamilerin.... I dont like judging people, but when you come and claim you know how to quote the scriptures, then quote it well, and dont quote it to suit yourself.... Mr. Macaulay, why dint you quote Romans 1 vs 16 to 32? Oh, that passage speaks against Homosexualism right? I guess, you dont have the new testament in your own version of the Bible, so keep looking for answers to your rhetorical questions..... #Not all who says to me Lord, will enter the kingdom of Heaven.... #

Gay Nigerian pastor, Jide Macaulay took to facebook to write a letter to homophobes this morning. Read what he wrote


Open Letter to Homophobes
Far too many people play God and dehumanize Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, Trans, and Intersex people throughout the world, in every culture, race, background etc.
The discrimination is so bad that it leaves many LGBTI people wondering and asking questions. This letter to Homophobes is being reproduced to answer many questions people have asked me.
Both heterosexuals and homosexual people, People of all faith have claimed that homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22 and cannot be condoned under any circumstance.
Dear Homophobes,
Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your bigoted rhetoric, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, they are clobbered with Leviticus 18:22 which clearly state it to be an abomination...End of debate.
I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God's Laws and how to follow them.
1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighbouring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?
2. I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?
3. I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness - Lev.15: 19-24. The problem is how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.
4. When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odour for the Lord - Lev.1:9. The problems are my neighbours. They claim the odour is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?
5. I have a neighbour who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2. Clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself, or should I ask the police to do it?
6. A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination - Lev. 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this? Are there 'degrees' of abomination?
7. Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle-room here?
8. Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev. 19:27. How should they die?
9. I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?
10. My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev.19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? Lev.24:10-16. Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair, like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)
I know you have studied these things extensively and thus enjoy considerable expertise in such matters, so I am confident you can help.
Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging.

The Other Child of the living God.

Can those laws be overlooked including all the sins in Galatians except homosexuality?

I mean why are these other laws not with life sentences too or is there a Bible verse that place homosexuality in a different level to other sins?

Ezekiel 16:49
"Look, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: She and her daughter had pride, fullness of food, and abundance of idleness; neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.

50. "And they were haughty and committed abomination before Me; therefore I took them away as I saw fit.


I wonder why christians are equating gayism with sodomy.
With these^^^ Nigeria is already sodom.


Then, why did your country criminalised gayism and left adulterers, abusers etc?.

To think that GEJ legalised prostitution and he was praised by myopic people for his act against gays.
Yes my country, not the Church left those other ones. Before GOD, a liar , fornicator and homosexual are all guilty.
