Pray for New Life Church

Monday March 5, 2007

Word out of Colorado are cutbacks at New Life Church. Lost in all the "big" news about Haggard is the big and very hurt church that still lives in Colorado Springs everyday. They need our prayers.

They'll get my prayers when they renounce their lies about God's gay and lesbian children, and not a second sooner.

As sorry as I feel for anyone who loses a job and the stability it provides for their family, my sympathies are with the gay & lesbian families who will have to live with the consequences of the Colorado amendment that Haggard and New Life supported. (Ironically, the families of New Life's fired workers will enjoy benefits they sought to deny to gay families. Working spouses will be able to carry their unemployed spouses on their own health insurance, for example.)
If the folks at New Life ha made room for the possibility that gays and lesbian might life happy healthy lives in the context of their community -- like perhaps supporting and encouraging committed monogamous relationships for gays & lesbians -- there'd be a lot fewer guys like Haggard, a lot fewer families suffering, and a lot fewer people picking up the pieces when the facade falls.
When you prefer or even require someone to be closeted and/or psychologically and spiritually tormented, you have only yourself to blame when something like this happens, because you made it inevitable. I feel sorry for New Life, because they brought this on themselves. But I feel sorrier for the people who have to live with the consequences of New Life's beliefs and actions, even though they didn't ask for them.

The satanic forces driving the sexual deviants desiring that Churches be broken to pieces over the homosexual issue are doing what they do. We are watching powers and principalies at work. I'm curious and curiouser how things are speeding up.
Where homosexuality goes, the Churches suffer.
