I agree that we should be able to give a response. However, we must remember that this was an interview. It is my opinion that as a journalist she was attempting to give him a chance to confirm or deny the rumors. That does not in any way negate her responsibilities as a believer, but we must consider the context of their conversation. Additionally, if we consider the fact that this man is by no means ignorant to the gospel and what it says, we have to again reference Romans 1:21-28 (specifically the reprobate mind). More than anything this should serve as a warning to anyone straddling the fence. Your opinion is valuable and I thank you for opening this dialogue. I pray that it will a blessing to others in the future. Please continue to visit us at SOTF:)

Yes I agree. But, please note that I said in addition to prayer was the need to prepare ourselves to give an answer… which I do not believe was accomplished in these segments. Now…, though I do agree with you that we cannot know the heart of a man, I also know that the goal of any good communication is to either inform or persuade your listener/viewer to act, what better example of this than the Gospel, right:) Speaking for myself, I just don’t believe either was accomplished effectively here. Instead, the takeaway for me was the dispelling of a rumor in the Christian community, and lost was an opportunity to witness to a fallen brother, believers who are caught in the same lifestyle, and non-believers that may come across this post (seeing that this post will live on in internet time and eternity…). No harm, no foul, and most definitely an opinion shared in love:)

We cannot be sure of the intentions of the interviewer. However, we can view this as an example of apostasy, or falling away from the truth (2 Thessalonians 2:3). He once believed and has chosen to deny the truth of God. It is rebellion, so we must pray for Him as well as those folowing him.

Based on his responses, one can deduce that he has embraced gay theology which tauts that God’s “real” anger in Sodom and Gomorrah was directed at the promiscuity prevalent in the city, and not the homosexual behavior itself. After seeing this interview I am really saddened by the fact that; 1) this young man who obviously has a large following has allowed him self to intellectualize his own sin, and 2) the interviewer knowing her questions beforehand, did not better prepare herself to engage in what is a obviously a battle for his mind and soul. As God’s people not only do we need to pray, but we also need to study to show ourselves approved. At the end of the day, the outcome of the this interview served what purpose? The dispelling of rumor? An opportunity to advance heresy?

This is so sad. Amidst the fancy words and his attempt to speak eloquently…the bottom line is sin is sin–no matter how you dress it up. I will pray for this young man, who so obviously knows that the sinful acts he commits is wrong.
