The problem is most were mere decisions and not true conversions. This is the case with all mass evangelism. Ive been there and done that as a kid, but it didn't change my life. Most folks who've done that very thing can say the same.

Nor do I intend to cast any doubt on those professions which have been made. However the Bible makes it abundantly clear that the homosexual lifestyle is sinful, and to allow our view of that sin to diminish is absolutely wrong. If the church will not stand up in this day and clearly declare what is right in the light of God’s word then who will? Personally I would be delighted if I never had to mention the issue of homosexuality again, yet with the increasing promotion of that lifestyle, and the failure of so many preachers to denounce it, I sadly have no doubt that it is something which I will have to return to in the future.<br /><br />P.S. Any further point you may wish to make on this matter will be taken a lot more seriously if you leave a name and do not hide behind the anonymity of the internet.<br />Andrew McDonaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12071641869008237196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3191785679024598411.post-65087735123109655312013-10-07T06:08:08.293-07:002013-10-07T06:08:08.293-07:00I hope there will be a follow up article that comm...I hope there will be a follow up article that commends Jay Lowder for giving a clear presentation of the Gospel that led to well over 200 making decisions for Christ over the week, all achieved without a single mention of homosexuality. This is EXACTLY why people don't want to be associated with the church these days....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
