Homosexuality and the Bible (2 of 4)
by Ernest Easley
Please take your Bible and turn to Romans 1. We're thinking these days under the general heading: The Moral Collapse of America for America is sick! This nation was built on a moral and spiritual foundation, and that foundation is crumbling. The time has come for a restoring of our moral values! I believe for the moral collapse to become the moral climb...it's time we stop rejecting and refusing the Word of God and to re-establish the Bible in all we do for morality is not determined by the vote of the people, it is determined by the Word of God...Romans 3.20, ''by the law is the knowledge of sin.'' Now, for the next few weeks...I want to...
Are People Born Gay? What Does the Bible Really Say about Homosexuality? (5 of 5)
by Jason Dees
Are you born gay? In April of 1997, Ellen DeGeneres, the lead character of ABC's Sitcom Series Ellen, became the first openly gay lead character in television. I don't know if you remember the episode. Many of you don't remember the episode because there was so much backlash in the Birmingham market that the ABC affiliate did not even air the show that night. We liberals up in Huntsville did air the show, but it was big news across the whole country that there was an openly gay woman playing an openly gay woman in a TV Sitcom. That was 1997, 16 years ago. And today it is very clear that the cultural landscape has totally...
Homosexuality, the Bible, and Southern Baptists (22 of 26)
by Stan Coffey
INTRODUCTION: Earlier this month the Southern Baptist Convention in Indianapolis, Indiana denied representation to any church sanctioning the lifestyles of practicing homosexuals or who had ordained homosexuals to the ministry. The convention also approved an amendment to the constitution of the convention which would bar representation of such churches in future conventions. Homosexual behavior is not new on the world scene. Many of the Roman emperors were homosexuals. Such behavior is also mentioned earlier in the Bible in the book of Genesis in a case of cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. It is interesting to note...
Homosexuality - Is It a Choice? (3 of 4)
by Steve Jones
Introduction: Little junior said to his dad, ''Why is the grass green?'' Dad said, ''I don't know.'' Junior asked, ''Why is the sky blue?'' Dad said, ''I don't know.'' Junior said, ''What makes the sun rise?'' Dad said, ''I don't know.'' Junior said, ''Dad, I hope you don't mind me asking you all of these questions.'' Dad said, ''No son, if you don't ask questions how are you ever going to learn anything.''Today we want to pose a question and hopefully do a little better with the answer than Dad did for junior! The question on the table today is this: IS HOMOSEXUALITY A CHOICE? If you're new to us this morning you should know that we're in...
A Christian Response to Homosexuality
by Rick White
Introduction: While ministering in a church in Edmond, Oklahoma in 1976 I was one of two ministers that received an emergency call from a young woman late one Friday evening threatening to end her life in suicide. Her plea was heart breaking, saying that she was beyond help. As we pleaded with her by telephone to consider the hope and help that Jesus Christ offers to all of us, she ended the conversation abruptly , saying that if we really cared we would come to the club from where she was calling. It was nearly midnight when we arrived in the parking lot of the club Free Spirit. It was an old Episcopal church building, where at one time a...

Marriage Matters (4 of 6)
by Roger Thomas
Introduction: Sometimes I feel like Rip Van Winkle. You remember the lazy New Englander from the Washington Irving story. Rip fell asleep while squirrel hunting. He woke up twenty years later thinking only a few hours had passed. But everything had changed. Children grew up. The colonies fought and won the Revolutionary War. Van Winkle slept through it all. He woke up a stranger in his own hometown. Sometimes I feel like Rip Van Winkle! Sometimes I feel like I fell asleep on the couch watching ''I Love Lucy'' and ''Father Knows Best.'' I awake to ''Will and Grace'' and ''Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.'' I can remember when the great...
