Can believers of Jesus Christ assist or promote productions that showcase homosexual acceptance?

I would like to know if the word of God means abstain from all appearance of evil relates to those believers of Jesus Christ who are marketable and beckoned to help in productions that clearly showcase homosexual acceptance. Should they do the production and set aside their religious faith as it is just fictional characters or is their evil intent behind bringing these productions to the mass population... meaning subliminal messages.

Me too!
Well, I can't say that I would not allow a homosexual IN the congregation but I would not allow any person who is open about any sin to be in leadership OVER the congregation. But I would most definitely invite any and all to come hear the word preached, taught, delivered, served, or however you want to describe it. After all, we are made clean by the word of God and if we don't allow them to dawn the doors, how will they (sinners, not just homosexuals, get clean?)

Now Now.. don't think that I am saying that the ONLY way for a person to hear or receive God's is in the four walls. If I believed that, I wouldn't have a internet ministry...LOL
yes I did get off topic.

I'll give you the answer to your question in one word.

Question: Why is it allowed?

Answer: Hypocrisy.

I hope this helps.
HEYYYY was my one word answer not good enough LOL
I do not think that the word or the action of hypocrisy is the reason why the church allows the homosexuality to go on. I mean the definition of hypocrisy is the intent to deceive. But since this has been going on since before times and it has been allowed I think fear and ignorance has played the biggest part in these actions. Remember we were not around when the book of Revelation was written and it speaks several times regarding the sin of homosexuality and the church turning a blind eye to it. In Austin, where I live in the black churches 70% of the male musicians are outwardly gay and the pastors accept it because they are talented and we must love them through this situation. Is it acceptable to God, well most pastors I have spoken with do not want the blood of that person on their hands, what if they hear a message and change their lives? Again these are just reasons that dispute that pastors and choirs, and usher boards allow homosexuality not to intentionally deceive, (how can a person be deceived by what they see openly) but because of fear and ignorance.
Do you examine every person who is talented in your congregation as to whether they are living a sin-filled or sinless life. The job of any pastor is to deliver the truth. How many times have you been in fellowship with a person who could praise God a person who had the ability to play an instrument and sing then later came to find out they were gay, did that take away from your service? All I say is that no one can practice deception to what is in front of a person's eyes. And again how many have questioned the pastor of that house only to find that it is happening all over the world? There is a lot of repentance that needs to go on in pulpits not just on the level of homosexuality, so with that being the case I know that it must start with me.
Because they hold the truth in unrighteousness not in righteousness!
No! We as chidren of God should not take down what we know the Bible teaches just to support something that clearly does not support God's word. We have become to watered down in our understanding of scripture and have taken to many tect and twisted it to our own desire. Therefore we should not participate.
This is a very interesting subject that goes beyond homosexuality. The real issue is does the word of God allow for the appearence of evil to be incorporated in our lives. The word plainly inform us to abstain from anything that is not of God. This id difficult to do when we live in a society that the foundation has a cord of disbelief sewn into the fabric of our culture. Pick up the newspaper, turn on your TV or computer the evil of our culture opens its doors to you.

The homosexal issue has faced us since the church opened its doors. In the african-american experience we always know the gay individual in the choir or playing the piano, but looked the other way. Is God please with this action? Our networks, public schools, gyms, sporting teams,etc. have their presence and we still look away.

Paul struggles when he writes that we should be separated but yet participate in our society as good Christians. How do we continue to be acceted by Him? Great subject!
Leviticus 20:13
13If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

Now here is a chapter in the bible homosexual love to use to call Jesus a liar by twisting the word of God into making it their own.

Matthew 19: 10-12
10His disciples say unto him, If the case of the man be so with his wife, it is not good to marry.
11But he said unto them, All men cannot receive this saying, save they to whom it is given.
12For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there

(It is clear in this chapter that Jesus was referring to the concerns of divorcement,) Now take a look at other verses before verse 10 and 11, 12.
Matthew 19: 7-12
He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.
9And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.
10His disciples say unto him, If the case of the man be so with his wife, it is not good to marry.
11But he said unto them, All men cannot receive this saying, save they to whom it is given.
12For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.

Now as for the word eunuchs it has a totally different meaning than homosexual
God never say anything about eunuchs with eunuchs meaning homosexual activities stop twisting the word of God making it your own.

Proverbs 3: 5
Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding
Isaiah 55:8
8For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.

2 Timothy 4:3-4
3For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables

1 Timothy 4
1Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils

Leveticus 18: 22-24
You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination. Also you shall not have intercourse with any animal to be defiled with it, nor shall any woman stand before an animal to mate with it; it is a perversion. Do not defile yourselves by any of these things; for by all these the nations which I am casting out before you have become defiled.

The anus is a delicate mechanism of small muscles that comprise an exit-only passage with repeated trauma friction and stretching the sphincter lose it tone and its ability to maintain a tight seal. Consequently anal sex leads to leakage of fecal material that can easily become chronic.

The potential for injury is exacerbated by the fact that the intestine has only a single layer of cells separating it from highly vascular tissue that is blood. It is much easier to establish infection organisms in feces, and mixing of bodily fluids.

It is clear that there are serious medical consequences to same sex behavior.


Romans 1: 25-29
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:
27And 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.
28And 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;
29Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness,

Jude 1:7
Just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding cities, which likewise indulged in sexual immorality and pursued unnatural desire, serve as an example by undergoing a
punishment of eternal fire.

Romans 6:23
23For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord
Reconciled in Christ

19 For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, 20 and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross.
21 And you, who once were alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled 22 in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy, and blameless, and above reproach in His sight— 23 if indeed you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which was preached to every creature under heaven, of which I, Paul, became a minister. Colossians 3:19-23

12The night is nearly over; the day is almost here. So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light. 13Let us behave decently, as in the daytime, not in orgies and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and debauchery, not in dissension and jealousy. 14Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the sinful nature. Romans 13:12-14

11But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a slanderer, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat. 1 Corinthians 5:11

16So I say, live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature. 17For the sinful nature desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the sinful nature. They are in conflict with each other, so that you do not do what you want. 18But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under law.
19The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. Galatians 5:16-21

I copied and pasted these scriptures because as students of GOD's word we can rightly divide the word of truth. It is the popular belief that we can live any kind of way and still inherit the kingdom, however Jesus tells us in Revelation that this is not so. My final scripture submission is this not only applies that homosexuality wrong but adultery and fornication are wrong also. And I would be careful of anything that would teach others to practices these acts also, but many of our Christian believers are caught up in soap-operas...hmmm?

14"Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city. 15Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.
18I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book. 19And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book. Revelation 22:14-15; 18-19

Blessings on you.
Man you hit the nail on the head with Gods word. I love that. It cant get any plainer than that.

11But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a slanderer, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat. 1 Corinthians 5:11
