Why This New California Bill Is So Dangerous To The Church

Let’s be very clear — the root agenda and intent of the immoral against God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit and the inerrant Word of God by the well financed and backed fascist, militant homosexual movement was to either be able to totally remove and erase true Christianity from the face of the earth, or to invade, corrupt and pervert what passes for Christianity thereby being unrecognizable and having no form  Biblical teachings or sound doctrines.

And the professed church sat idly by, being entertained and otherwise distracted ingesting and eating the lies of the world, of the fascist, militant homosexual movement.

Indoctrination in schools.

Indoctrination by the government and every branch of the military.

Indoctrination by Hollywood and the entertainment industry.

Indoctrination by the idols Americans and the world worship.

Indoctrination by the media.

Indoctrination in the lost churches and denominations claiming the mantle of being Christian.

And like all things in America evil uses America’s laws against itself to achieve its goals.

California is the starting place. And this will spread throughout America like a California wildfire out of control.

California government is imitating Marie Antionette, as they want to have their cake and eat it too.

When it suits them they pound their fists, spittle pouring from their collagen injected lips, they march, they holler, they protest, they litigate and go to the courts claiming the separation of church and state to remove any and all traces of God, Jesus, the Bible or true Christianity from the face of the earth — yet they have no qualms about the state dictating to the church and government not obeying the laws of the land, such as religious freedoms granted to all in the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.

Government cannot, select individuals and groups cannot cry and declare something Christian must be removed because of the separation of church and state while thus being allowed to invade the church and dictate to the church what can and cannot be preached, spoken, written about in an outright evil, doing the work of Satan, to remove the contents of the Word of God from the church.

Period.

Now the people sat idle, self-absorbed in the fascist homosexual movement growing to proportions with its lies and deceptions we are where we now are. Will the people, supposed real Christians remain idle, silent, appeasing, bowing to the Evil One and his minions and ministers still? Or will they finally get off their lazy duffs and from their slumber, from their walking in darkness with the world and put on the full armour of God and speak out telling one and all BIBILICALLY the TRUTHS of THE WORD OF GOD, not ashamed, not hiding, not omitting, not adding to, not preaching nor relaying unsound doctrines, not eating at the table of the world and its lies and deceptions.

Ah, that is the question…

Why This New California Bill Is So Dangerous To The Church
 

By Michael Brown

July 3, 2019

I also tweeted about the bill. I asked: “What? A California bill that would FORBID pastors from saying homosexual acts are sinful? A bill REQUIRING them to affirm same-sex relationships and gender identity? It has been proposed!”
 
One of my Twitter followers, a younger Christian man, challenged my reading of the bill. He insisted that it did not infringe on Christian liberties. Is he right?
 
Let’s take a look at this bill more carefully. Once we do, you’ll understand why Christian legal organizations, along with pastors and ex-homosexual leaders in California, are so concerned.
 
The Bill is Bad
The final text of the bill states this: “This measure would call upon all Californians to embrace the individual and social benefits of family and community acceptance, upon religious leaders to counsel on lesbian, homosexual, bisexual, transgender and queer matters from a place of love, compassion, and knowledge of the psychological and other harms of conversion therapy, and upon the people of California and the institutions of California with great moral influence to model equitable treatment of all people of the state.”
 
Is this really so bad? Yes.
 
First, who gave the government the right to issue a call like this? Who gave the government the right to tell religious leaders that they cannot help people with unwanted same-sex attractions pursue change? (Broadly speaking, that’s what “conversion therapy” ultimately refers to. The term, of course, is used in a derogatory way.) If ever there was an overstepping of the separation of Church and State, this would be it.
 
Second, what, exactly, is meant by “equitable treatment of all people of the state”? Based on the findings which form the foundation of this bill, it would mean affirming transgender identity and transgender “rights,” even when those “rights” infringed on the rights of others.
 
And this is not just idle talk. The bill passed it its committee vote and is heading to the California Senate for a full vote. Let’s dig in a little deeper to see exactly what California pastors and religious leaders are facing.
 
The Presuppositions
ACR 99 is based on a number of presuppositions, all introduced with the word WHEREAS. Here’s the first: “The California State Legislature has found that being lesbian, homosexual, bisexual, or transgender (LGBTQ) is not a disease, disorder, illness, deficiency, or shortcoming.”
 
Based on this, it would be wrong to believe or teach that homosexual practice is sinful. Or that homosexual desires are disordered. Or that there is anything wrong with homosexual relationships. Or that a man who believes he is a woman has any type of deficiency. And this is just the first of the 9 “WHEREAS” clauses!
 
Another clause rejects any attempts to change a person’s lesbian, homosexual, bisexual, transgender or queer identity. (This appears under the heading of “conversion therapy.”)
 
And another states that “the stigma associated with being lesbian, homosexual, bisexual, transgender or queer often created by groups in society, including therapists and religious groups, has caused disproportionately high rates of suicide, attempted suicide, depression, rejection, and isolation amongst lesbian, homosexual, bisexual, transgender and queer and questioning individuals.”
 
In other words, if you preach and teach what the Bible says about lesbian, homosexual, bisexual, transgender and queer issues and people, no matter how loving and compassionate you are, you are guilty of stigmatizing them, thereby causing them emotional and even physical harm.
 
The intent of this bill is perfectly clear.
 
The Government Telling Pastors What to Preach
That’s why Liberty Counsel issued a warning, stating, “CA RESOLUTION THREATENS PASTORS AND COUNSELORS.”
 
Specifically, the resolution “calls on religious leaders and others with ‘moral influence’ to affirm homosexuality and ‘transgenderism’ and to accept that Christian efforts to help people with unwanted same-sex attraction or gender confusion are ‘ineffective, unethical and harmful.’ As a resolution, ACR 99 does not have the force of law but will be persuasive for some policymakers. It will now go to the state Senate for a vote.”
 
That’s why the California Family Council, which is on the front lines of this legislative battle, wrote that “CA Legislators to Tell Pastors What to Preach from their Pulpits on lesbian, homosexual, bisexual and transgender Behavior & Identities.”
 
Life and Hope
And that’s why ex-homosexual leaders Ken Williams and Elizabeth Woning protested the bill. As Woning wrote, “For us, walking out our faith with biblical conviction means life and hope. Our faith has saved us from suicide and given us freedom to live with clear consciences. We too would like to be acknowledged and affirmed. … Instead, activists attack our efforts to care for like-minded friends by promoting dangerous counseling restrictions and stifling our free speech.”
 
In short, this bill would state that pastors and Christian counselors do not have the right to walk out their faith and live out their biblical convictions.
 
It would stop them from offering the fullness of the Gospel to people with unwanted same-sex attractions and gender identity confusion. And it would constitute, in no uncertain terms, a frontal assault on their — and our — religious liberties.
 
That’s why it must be resisted.
