“Increasing Number of Christian Artists Adopting Gay Theology”
by Prophecy New Watch
August 29th, 2014

Another artist in the genre of contemporary Christian music has openly declared her homosexuality. Vicky Beeching, a talented worship leader from Great Britain, made the announcement one week ago to the dismay of many Christians who have enjoyed listening and worshipping to her music. Her songs, “Glory to God” and “Breath of Life”, are sung at worship services all around the world. Beeching made the revelation in an interview with the “Independent” newspaper of London.

Beeching joins a number of Christian artists of late, who have openly admitted their homosexuality. In the “Independent” interview, she recounted the story of her life spent in mental anguish because of her secretive same sex attraction.” I feel certain God loves me just the way I am, and I have a huge sense of calling to communicate that to young people” stated Beeching. For the past year, Vicky Beeching has been urging churches to amend their doctrine concerning same sex unions.

These attempts to effect doctrinal change have some conservative Christian leaders concerned that this is only the swell of a massive wave barreling down on the church, seeking to force the “gay agenda” on evangelicals. Scott Lively, an evangelical attorney and evangelist, sees this onslaught as a harbinger of coming events. Lively, in a recent WND article, stated that he expects to see “attacks on Christians in America like we have never seen before”, as those seeking the approval of homosexuality by the church, go on the offensive.

The past 40 years have witnessed a domino effect as one institution after another has fallen to the relentless” gay agenda.” Just last year, the Boy Scouts succumbed to the “steam roller” of gay activism and now, “one last barrier to ‘gay’ cultural hegemony remains: the Christian church,” continued Mr. Lively.

In his brochure, Not ‘just another sin”, he, argues that a” dangerous and modern heresy called ‘gay theology” is infiltrating the church at an alarming pace. Many believers who are afraid of being called intolerant are trivializing homosexuality and calling it just another sin.” His assertion is that from Genesis to Revelation, the Bible teaches that “homosexuality is not just another sin, but is in fact a form of extreme rebellion” against the sovereignty of God.

While acknowledging that Jesus does indeed love the homosexual, Dr. Michael Brown, Christian author of the book ”Can You be Gay and be a Christian!”, explained in a Charisma blog post, that Jesus reached out to sinners in His day and changed them by His presence and words rather than affirming them in their sin. Jesus teachings and life were to be transformational to the sinner. Dr. Brown urged Christians to pray for Vicky Beeching’s repentance.

“I appeal to you, Vicky, to go back to God once again, to recognize that His Word really is clear in terms of homosexual practice, and that you can advocate for freedom and wholeness in Jesus without advocating for homosexual practice. (In fact, if you advocate for homosexual practice, you will bring people into bondage, not freedom.),” continued Brown.

Finally, Pastor Kris Vallotton, in an earlier Facebook post, explained that his many years of pastoral counseling has” taught me that when you define yourself by your temptations or your passions (instead of managing your appetite and resisting temptations); there is no bottom to that cesspool! The truth is that we all have temptations and appetites that are not healthy and must be managed, or we will live with a deep sense of shame no matter what values our culture tries to validate because God has written His own values on our hearts."

If the church is to stand against this “gay theology”, individual Christians must arm themselves with the truth of God’s Word as they face another attempt to dilute its message of salvation and hope for sinners in need of forgiveness and transformation!

Looking for His glorious appearing! Titus 2:13
