New Study Finds 30% Of Millennials Identify As LGBTQ

Romans 1:22-25 and “Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. 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; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.”

If you have any sense at all, and fear God, then you cannot deny that the p[receding passage of Holy Scripture condemns the homosexual lifestyle and the LGBTQ movement. In God's Kingdom the gross sin of homosexuality is not okay. I didn't say that, God did!

I was saddened today when I read the following horrible wicked news:

Nearly a third of millennials identify as LGBT, study finds

by Asher Notheis, Breaking News Reporter | November 08, 2021

Roughly 30% of millennials in the United States identify as LGBT, according to a recent study conducted by Arizona Christian University.

Among the 30% of millennials who identify as LGBT , 39% of those between the ages of 18 and 24 said they fall into that category, according to the results of the study, which surveyed 600 people between the ages of 18 and 37 and was overseen by George Barna, the school's Cultural Research Center's director of research. 

"The generation is redefining sexuality, their own and how to perceive and respond to the gender identity and sexual-orientation choices of others," the study, which was published as part of the Foundation of Freedom's October issue, said. "With that have come new ideas and choices regarding marriage and family. Consequently, a social institution that used to be a safe harbor has now become a battleground." ...

Dear reader, we have nothing to fear as Bible-believing Christians! We are already on the winning side in Jesus Christ. Job 20:5, “That the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite but for a moment?” The triumphing of the wicked is short, because we all have a short time to live on earth, and then the judgment! Hebrews 9:27-28, “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.” I thank God for the cross of Calvary! I thank God for the sinless Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, my blessed God and Savior!!!

Ecclesiastes 12:13-14, “Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.” As we just read in God's holy Word, man's WHOLE DUTY is to fear God and keep His commandments. It doesn't get any simpler than that friend. Perhaps you are a college student and are trying to figure out which courses you want to take. Many young people have difficult with choosing a career, and what path they want to pursue in education. That is normal and fine, but young person, please make sure that you don't leave off the MOST IMPORTANT THING IN LIFE, which is to FEAR GOD AN OBEY THE HOLY BIBLE!!!

Man's whole duty on earth is to FEAR GOD and KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS!!! I love that. I love simple things. We are warned in Ecclesiastes 12:14 by Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived, that God will hold all mankind accountable for the good and evil which we have done. Hebrews 4:13, “Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.” No one can escape the judgment of almighty God. Do you fear Him dear reader? I do. If we fear God, then we will obey Him, because we know that we will be held accountable. In fact, Jesus warned in Matthew 12:36 that men shall give account to God, even for our idle words spoken. How much more shall we all be held accountable for lying, hurtful words and filthy communication! 

Having said that as introduction, the homosexuality community ought to fear God. Colossians 3:5-7, “Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience: In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.” Notice that the Apostle Paul says in Verse 7, “In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.” Paul is speaking to the believers in the church at Colossi. Every Christians at one time was living in sin in the world. None of us are shining examples of God's righteousness! Dear reader, if you are a homosexual, God loves you unconditionally. God desires for you to come to Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, so you can be forgiven by faith and have eternal life. God doesn't demand that you give up your sins to be saved, because then eternal life would be a trade or an exchange. God simply asks that you come to Christ as an ungodly sinner, putting your complete trust (resting) in Christ alone.

Jesus is the only begotten Son of God, the Christ (John 20:31). Jesus died on the cross in your place and mine, paying our debt of sin which He did not owe (2nd Corinthians 5:17). JESUS PAID IT ALL!!! Jesus paid for our sins with His precious blood (1st Peter 1:18-19), to redeem us from the consequences of sin (Romans 5:8-9), which is to be punished by God's wrath in Hell forever and ever (Revelation 20:11-15; 21:8). 

It is sad and tragic that so many young people today identify as Lesbian Bisexual Gay Transgender Queer (LGBTQ). I am not a preacher who bashes gays. I don't do that. God loves everybody, and so should we. Any preacher who teaches that God hates anybody is preaching heresy! John 3:16, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” Did you read that? God loves THE WORLD!!! That means you dear reader, no matter WHO you are. God loves the worse sinner! God loves the vilest criminal! God hates their sin! We ought never reject the sinner with the sin, nor accept the sin with the sinner. To do so is sinful.

Something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it! How much did Christ pay for the sinner? His life for mine!!! How could it ever be??? Jesus paid that same price for YOU!!! WHEW! WHAT A GREAT GOD!!!! Christ died for the ungodly:

Romans 5:8-9, “For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.”

As you just read, some men would die for a righteous man. A few men would even die for a good man. But who would die for a murderer, pedophile, homosexual, adulterer, rapist or vile career criminal? JESUS THAT'S WHO!!! Christ died for THE UNGODLY. That means you and me friend. We are all ungodly sinner the Bible says (James 2:10; 1st John 1:10).

For God so loved the world,

He gave His only Son,

To die on Calv’ry’s tree,

From sin to set me free;

Someday He’s coming back,

What glory that will be!

Wonderful His love to me!

The beautiful thing about God's simple plan of salvation is that you can have it right now for absolutely free. Most people fail to understand God's plan of salvation. Most people have been wrongly taught by false religion that you must DO SOMETHING to get to Heaven. But the Bible teaches the opposite! The inspired Holy Bible teaches that Jesus has already DONE everything required to satisfy the wrath of an angry God against sinners, so that all we need to do is accept God's free gift. What saith the Scripture? Romans 6:23, “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

Dear young person, God loves you just as you are, in your sins and messed up life! But you cannot go to Heaven without a Savior. You and I deserve to be punished in Hell forever for our sins. Literally, we deserve to burn in the fires of Hell forever and ever. I don't think any human being can really grasp such a horrifying thought, punishment without end. But that is only because God is perfectly holy and 100% righteous, and we are sinful and finite in our understanding. Death is the penalty (the wages we have earned) for our sins! That includes the “second death” in the lake of fire and brimstone (Revelation 21:8). BELIEVE IT! The Bible says it, so if you are wise you will believe it! I DO!!!

That is why I received Jesus as my personal Savior in 1980 at age 13. I didn't want to go to Hell. I wanted to go to Heaven forever to be with Jesus, having fun and enjoying all the blessings of God (Romans 8:32). Did you know dear reader that the Bible contains 7,497 promises from God to man? Yes, it is true!!! God is more than awesome!!!

My hope is built on nothing less

Than Jesus Christ, my righteousness;

I dare not trust the sweetest frame,

But wholly lean on Jesus’ name.

On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;

All other ground is sinking sand,

All other ground is sinking sand.

The ONLY reason why I am going to Heaven is because of what JESUS did through Calvary's cross to pay for my sins. Christ DIED on the cross. He was BURIED. Three days later He RESURRECTED from the dead according to John 19-20 and 1st Corinthians 15:1-4. I tell people that I am as narrowminded as the Holy Bible! Amen!

If you do not know 100% that you are saved. I mean a born-again child of God, then you need to settle that right now! Simply admit to God that you are a guilty sinner. Romans 3:19-23 teaches that God's Old Testament law (including the Ten Commandments) was given so that when we broke them, we would realize how horrible we are as sinners! God gave His law to give us THE KNOWLDGE OF SIN (Romans 3:20b). Romans 3:23a says, “For all have sinned.” Simply come to God oh sinner! Take God at His Word as recorded in the Bible!

If you will simply receive Christ's sacrifice on the cross as payment for your sins, resting your faith in the resurrected only begotten Son of God (Hebrews 4:10-11), then you will be immediately, irrevocably and eternally saved (Romans 10:13). Once saved, always saved! The new birth is a one time event, which cannot be undone, no matter how much sin you commit. Romans 5:20-21, “Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.”

No one has God's permission or blessing to commit sin (Romans 3:31), but when we do, God's grace will abound more, so that every believer falls IN GRACE, never FROM GRACE! Only a Christ-rejecter can fall FROM GRACE, missing their only ticket to Heaven (Galatians 5:4). Jesus desires for all men to be saved (John 5:40; 2nd Peter 3:9).
