Dedication
To politicians running for office or attempting to stay in office
who are more concerned for God's vote than man's and His Laws
than man's. If you exist out there, I dedicate this booklet to you.
Special acknowledgement to my Colonel friend who inadvertently
inspired me to write this. May he and all Christian soldiers be
mindful of the need to be obedient to our Great Commander and
Master, the Lord Jesus Christ, and uphold His orders concerning
homosexuality.
INTRODUCTION
Intolerance of, Discrimination Against and the Death Penalty for
Homosexuals is Prescribed in the Bible!
To make known such a truth is to draw fiery, condemning rhetoric and
screams of bigot, hater, radical, neo-nazi, unloving, unchristian,
intolerant, etc., from people who are, themselves, intolerant,
bigoted and so simple minded that they would condemn and oppose a student
giving an accurate book report simply because they do not like the contents
of the book that is being reported upon.
Any student of the Holy Scriptures, known as the Bible, can read (and
report) the Bible Scriptures that oppose and condemn homosexuality.
The wise and honest will not condemn such a student, knowing that the
student didn't write the book. The foolish and dishonest will. In the
short run, such slanderous tactics may stop the reporting but in
the long run it will not. For truth will ultimately prevail, no
matter how many truth bearers are stoned.
The truth is, the Bible advocates discrimination against, intolerance
of and the death penalty for homosexuals. Read the following
Bible Scriptures and then go to your own Bible and look up the
passages for yourself.
"If 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."
Leviticus 20:13 KJV
"Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is an
abomination." Leviticus 18:22 KJV
"Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the
kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor
idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor HOMOSEXUALS,
nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor
swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God." I Corinthians
6:9,10 NASV (Emphasis added)
"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all
ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in
unrighteousness;
Because that which may be known of God is
manifest in them;
For God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from
the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the
things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that
they are without excuse:
Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God,
neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and
their foolish heart was darkened.
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
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:
And 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.
And 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;
Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness,
covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit,
malignity; whisperers,
Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of
evil things, disobedient to parents,
Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection,
implacable, unmerciful:
Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things
are WORTHY OF DEATH, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them." Romans 1:18-32 (KJV Emphasis added)
Is it not apparent that the Bible Scriptures advocate
discrimination, intolerance and the DEATH PENALTY
concerning homosexuality? Then is not the Title of this writing
true? If the very title made you angry, then this author must ask
you the same question the Apostle Paul once asked: "Am I
therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?"
Galatians 4:16 (KJV).
For those who hate the truth, anyone who proclaims it they will also
hate and will consider such a one an enemy. They will accuse their enemy
of HATE and INTOLERANCE when in fact, it is they who hate and cannot
tolerate the truth. For such people no amount of reason, patience
or love will make the truth palatable to them unless they first
repent.
There are others who may not hate truth but are so far removed or
confused concerning it, that when it's heard, it sounds RADICAL
and EXTREME. Many in America's Judeo-Christian church
world fall in this category. Because such people have been taught
that being a radical or extremist is evil, they tend to reject any
truth that, to them and their surroundings, seems radical or extreme.
Once this author spoke to a political science class at a University
and was billed as a right wing extremist. So the question was
asked of the students, "How many Christians are there in the
audience?" About half the hands went up. Next it was asked,
"How many radicals, extremists or intolerant people are in the
audience?" and not one hand was raised. What a contradiction.
All the people who claimed to be followers of Jesus Christ also
claimed not to be what He was. Frankly, He was willing to
withstand public scorn and ridicule for truth (Matthew 27:40,41),
offend people if necessary (Matthew 15:12) and even die for what
He believed in. As for tolerance, he would not tolerate such
people as the money changers and actually confronted them
physically. (John 2:14,15) Obviously, He was a radical and an
extremist to the virtuous, so-called Christian in the Jude-Christian
churches, it all seems to unchristian.
The truth of the matter is, in one respect, homosexuals are far
more virtuous than are the lukewarm, cowardly, goody two shoes,
praise the Lord Judeo-Christians. Homosexuals are willing to:
- Promote their life style
- Endorse public scorn and rejection if necessary
- Rally to the aid of another homosexual
- Fight any who oppose their life style and
- As we shall see in this writing, are willing to prescribe the
death penalty to those who oppose them.
Unlike the modern day, lukewarm Judeo-Christian, they are
radicals and extremists. To Jesus they are far more acceptable
than the lukewarm Judeo-Christian. "I know your deeds, that you
are neither cold nor hot; I would that you were cold or hot. So
because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you
out of My mouth." Revelation 3:15,16 (NASV)
This writing will be opposed as much by those who call
themselves Christians as by homosexuals. They will try to reason
or explain away these Bible verses that discriminate against and
prescribe the death penalty for homosexuals. So in this writing,
their futile objections and explanations will be answered.
The enclosed news article is a good case in point of the lukewarm
and un-Biblical manner the Judeo-Christian world is coping with
homosexuality. They sign petitions and become part of the effort
of Colorado for Family Values but notice what their values are:
"These documents mean that homosexuals will continue to enjoy
the same basic constitutional rights and protections as any
American citizens," he said, reading from a prepared statement.
"They'll have the right to free speech and free assembly.
They'll have the right to do business and act politically. They'll
have the right to live with whomever they wish. They'll have the
right to
safety in their property and persons. And they'll have every legal
redress for violence against either themselves or their property,"
he said."
Now the historical record shows, forty years ago, the family
values in America would never allow homosexuals to have free
speech, free assembly, safety, etc., and thus the homosexual was
afraid to come out of the closet. Now lukewarm Judeo-
Christians consider it family values to allow them to do so. Such
values are not Bible values, for the Bible allows those who
continue in the sin of homosexuality, no such rights. (Please
understand that it is not wrong for Christians to sign petitions to
stop the advancement of homosexuals, but to stop at that point and
thus fail to pursue the true Bible values and to condemn those that
do is to be lukewarm.)

To the homosexual, it should be said that you've made great gains
in promoting your lifestyle. You have and continue to fight
courageously. You want to eliminate discrimination and
intolerance against homosexuals and have fought hard to eliminate
any laws that would discriminate against you. DON'T YOU
BECOME LUKEWARM HYPOCRITES LIKE THOSE SO-CALLED CHRISTIANS IN THE
CHURCHES.
Go after Bible Law, also. Demand that the Bible be outlawed
as hate literature or some such thing. At the very least, demand
that these Bible Scriptures that discriminate against you be removed. It
shouldn't be that hard. The so-called Christians didn't put up much
of a fight when a few black robed individuals demanded the Bible be
removed from their schools, so it shouldn't be that hard to remove
it entirely or at least those Bible Scriptures that oppose you.
Perhaps you could start off by promoting a law of man that
demands all Bible translations be revised to eliminate
discrimination, intolerance, and advocation of the death penalty
concerning homosexuals. (I'd suggest you start this way and wait
to eliminate the entire Bible until later.) Do it in the name of
love, peace and harmony. In fact, you could even do it in the name of
Christianity using the cross and a passivist, effeminate-looking
Jesus on a banner for such a crusade. Maybe you could use a
slogan such as, "Jesus loves homosexuals, why don't you?" on the
banner and those who opposes you, you can label as haters,
radicals, extremists, bigots, etc. It shouldn't be that hard to do.
You'll have plenty of help from the liberal media and
there are plenty of whoring-type politicians that will fall all over
themselves to help you as long as you'll vote for them.
At first, you could do this on a state by state basis. The law could
be written in many different ways. Perhaps you could make it so that
all Christians or churches have to certify they will use only the
revised, non-discriminatory Bibles. Most churches are state
incorporated and thus will do what their masters, such as the
Secretary of State, tells them. Maybe all churches should register
with the Secretary of State certifying all members have the
sanitized Bible version. Any church that refuses can then be
hauled into court by the state attorney general's office. The judges
(who may fear the homosexual crowd more than God or who may
be one themselves) will then uphold state imposed fines against
that church and the pastor of that church.
Don't worry about the other churches rallying to the cause because
they don't want to offend anyone and risk a drop in attendance (bad
business you know). Besides, tell them that Romans chapter 13 says
they have to obey the authorities.
Later, the law could be expanded to
require all Christians to register their Bibles and all unsanitized
Bibles be confiscated least one falls into the hands of an extremist
and he begins to believe and someone gets hurt.
You homosexuals should think about this project very seriously.
You can do it. You've showed more courage and fight than those
so-called Christian soldiers who oppose you by trying to strike
down pro-homosexual city ordinances that you've worked so hard
to get. You really believe in your life style. They don't even
believe or promote all the Bible Scriptures concerning
homosexuality. You don't see them advocating the death penalty
for homosexuality, do you? Then obviously they don't fully
believe their Bibles so they won't fight that hard when you
demand the revision of their Bibles.
Think about it. For the truth is, unless you take action along these
lines, you stand in danger. For someone's liable to start reading
and believing the Bible as it now stands. If that happens, then it's all
over for you.

INTOLERANCE, DISCRIMINATION and LAW are three
words that go together.
In the spring of 1991, I was a guest speaker for a psychology class
at Colorado State University during what has been called their "Gay
Awareness Week".
During such a week, there is a lot of rhetoric concerning
intolerance of and discrimination against homosexuals. I polled
the class to see who was in favor of the concept of discrimination
and intolerance. No one was in favor of such things. Next, I
asked the class how many were in favor of LAW and ORDER
and many were. But just as it's impossible for order to exist
without law, so is it impossible to have a law without intolerance
and discrimination.
Law By Its Very Nature is Intolerant and Discriminatory.
For example, suppose one was driving down a city street and entered a
school zone area with a flashing light and a sign that said "Speed
Limit-20 mph" and parked near the curb is a police car and its driver
is using a radar gun. There are two things that are certain. The 20mph
law is intolerant and discriminatory. The patrolman WILL NOT TOLERATE
you going 30 mph and WILL DISCRIMINATE AGAINST YOU if you go 30 mph,
i.e., he will pick you out of all the drivers, pull you over and punish you
for violating that law.
Thus, with simple reason, it is easily understood that law, by its
very nature, is discriminatory. For most it's simply ignorance to claim
to be for law and against intolerance and discrimination.
FOR HOMOSEXUALS IT'S HYPOCRISY for them to say they
are against discrimination and intolerance because they actively
work to promote laws such as city ordinances that are designed to
protect them against discrimination and intolerance. Yet, when
one realizes that law, by its very nature, is discriminatory and
intolerant, one realizes they are in reality promoting discrimination
and intolerance all under their hypocritical guise of being against
such.
How tolerant are they of organizations such as the Boy Scouts,
who oppose the life style known as homosexuality? Suppose a
man or woman's Christian religious convictions forbid them from
hiring a homosexual to work for them. With so-called, anti-
discrimination, gay rights ordinances, such religiously based
actions would not be tolerated and such a person would be
punished (or discriminated against) by the very law homosexuals
promote in the name of tolerance.
One church in Boulder, Colorado dismissed a choir leader
because he or she was a homosexual. As a result, the
homosexuals in the area protested mightily. Now, there are
homosexual churches in the land that hire preachers to teach from
their pulpits.
Suppose a minister who openly preached the Bible
Scriptures that proclaim the death penalty for homosexuality
applied for a preaching job, or choir director's job, at one of these
churches. Do you honestly think he would not be discriminated
against? Yes, he would be discriminated against by a crowd who
would not tolerate his preaching, a crowd who proclaims to the
world they are against discrimination and intolerance.
The truth is, discrimination and intolerance is a way of life. It's
just a matter of what we are going to be intolerant of and who we are
going to discriminate against.
For example, in 1988 a city ordinance was proposed by the Fort
Collins City Council that would have forbidden discrimination
against homosexuals in the area of housing and employment.
This author and the church he pastors, actively opposed the
ordinance and helped, in part, in defeating it. Later in the year, a
laundry operator refused to take some dirty clothes of mine that
were left at the laundry business to be cleaned. He explained that
he did so because I opposed the above mentioned city ordinance
and that he was against intolerance and discrimination. He was
surprised to find that I did not take offense at such an action.
How could I, I had fought for his right to discriminate? When it
was explained to him if I had been a homosexual and the city
ordinance had passed, he wouldn't have had the right to
discriminate against me, it caused him to think. Until that point,
it had never occurred to him that his actions were themselves
discriminative and intolerant.
Again, the truth of the matter is, it's just a matter of what we are
going to be intolerant of and who we are going to discriminate
against. For to have order, there must be law and with law comes
discrimination and intolerance. We must then determine what is
proper discrimination and intolerance.
Return to Table of Contents.
Obviously, if discrimination and intolerance is inherent in law
itself, then to have proper discrimination and intolerance, we must
have proper law.
Discrimination and intolerance is prevalent everywhere and in
everything about us. Take, for example, the field of physics. As a
physicist studies creation in a physics laboratory, he observes
how, for instance, a magnet functions. He observes how a magnet
discriminates concerning what it will pick up. There are some
items it attracts and some it will not and even some it repels such
as a similar pull of another magnet. The physicist records the
discrimination and intolerance of a magnet and calls it the law of
physics.
The chemist in the chemistry lab does likewise. There he
observes discrimination and intolerance. He sees cations will
bond with anions but not with other cations. He observes how
water and oil will not mix and he records all this under the laws of
chemistry.
The zoologist also observes discrimination and records the
biological law of kind after kind. Sparrows don't mate with
robins, one species will not tolerate another in its living domain,
etc.
No one calls such discrimination and intolerance in the physics or
chemistry lab or the zoology field as improper because it is all just
part of existing law known as the law of physics, laws of
chemistry and so forth.
But where did this existing law come from? Obviously from the
One who created physics, chemistry, zoology and etc. Regardless
of how some may believe the creation occurred (evolution, the big
bang theory or Bible Creation), few will deny that the present
existing laws come from the creator, or God. "For the invisible
things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen,
being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal
power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:" Romans
1:20 KJV
Now, no physics instructor would tell his or her students to go do
a lab experiment with magnets only this time ignore the laws of
physics or reverse them. No chemistry instructor would do so
either least there be the danger of great harm coming to the
student in the way of an explosion or deadly fumes, etc. Yet, the
universities of our land are full of psychology and sociology
instructors who would have their students believe they can ignore
the Creators Laws on sexual morality or reverse those laws or
make up their own laws and not suffer harm. This is particularly
true concerning the subject of homosexuality where young people
are lead to believe they can make up their own law, that is, choose
their own sexual preference. They are not being told there is the
existing Law of their Creator, God that is not to be disobeyed
without grave consequences.
So, where do we find that Law? In
the Bible. Thus, with it comes proper discrimination and
intolerance.

By a joint resolution of both houses of the United States
Congress, it has been declared that the Bible is THE WORD OF
GOD and that we need to apply its teachings. This is in the
congressional record known as public law 97-280 approved
October 4, 1982. Following is a reprint of it.
PUBLIC LAW 97-280-OCTOBER 4, 1982
Joint Resolution
Authoring and Requesting the President to Proclaim 1983 as the
"Year of the Bible".
"Whereas the Bible, the Word of God, has made a unique
contribution in shaping the United States as a distinctive and
blessed nation and people;
Wheras deeply held religious convictions springing from the
Holy Scriptures led to the early settlement of our Nation;
Whereas Biblical teachings inspired concepts of civil government
that are contained in our Declaration of Independence and the
Constitution of the United States;
Whereas many of our great national leaders-among them
Presidents Washington, Jackson, Lincoln, and Wilson-paid tribute
to the surpassing influence of the Bible in our country's
development, as in the words of President Jackson that the Bible
is "the rock on which our Republic rests";
Whereas the history of our Nation clearly illustrates the value of
voluntarily applying the teachings of the Scriptures in the lives of
individuals, families, and societies;
Whereas this Nation now faces great challenges that will test this
Nation as it has never been tested before; and
Whereas that renewing our knowledge of and faith in God
through Holy Scripture can strengthen us as a nation and a
people: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled, That the
President is authorized and requested to designate 1983 as a
national "Year of the Bible" in recognition of both the formative
influence the Bible has been for our Nation, and our national need
to study and apply the teachings of the Holy Scriptures."
Approved October 4, 1982
Note that it is already law that the Bible is declared to be the Word
of God and is to be applied. Now, if the Bible is the Word of
God, then the Laws it contains are the Laws of God or are the
existing Laws of the Creator. We have already noted how
existing Laws of the Creator in other areas bring about proper
discrimination and intolerance which no one with wisdom would
dare refuse. Then, so it is with the Laws in the Bible on
homosexuality.
However, those Laws the homosexuals and their foolish allies will
not tolerate and, in rebellion to the Law, they do as the Bible says:
Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God,
neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and
their foolish heart was darkened.
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
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:
And 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.
And 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;
Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness,
covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit,
malignity; whisperers,
Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection,implacable, unmerciful:
Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things
ARE WORTHY OF DEATH, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them." Romans 1:21-32 KJV (Emphasis added)
Notice in verse 32 of Romans chapter one it says, "Who knowing
the judgment of God, that they which commit such things ARE
WORTHY OF DEATH..."
We have already seen that the Law of God prescribes the death
penalty in Leviticus 20:13.
"If 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."
Some may say such a law is cruel and evil but the Bible says
otherwise.
"But we know that the Law is good, if one uses it
lawfully, realizing the fact that law is not made for a righteous
man, but for those who are lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly
and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who kill their
fathers or mothers, for murderers and immoral men and
homosexuals and kidnappers and liars and perjurers, and whatever
else is contrary to sound teaching." I Timothy 1:8-10 NASV.
Remember, it's already a Law of the land that the Bible is the
Word of God and is to be applied.
HOMOSEXUALS WOULD HAVE PEOPLE TO BELIEVE
THEY ARE AGAINST THE DEATH PENALTY but in reality
they are only against the death penalty for homosexuals. Many of
them would have their opponents die.

The following headlines were in a special report from the Family
Research Institute.
"GAY LEADER CALLS FOR 'AIDS TERRORIST ARMY' to
kill Non-Homosexuals (from the Wall Street Journal) (1) That
report gave the details of a Wall Street Journal interview with
homosexual leader Larry Kramer who founded ACT UP and has
been called Mr. Gay, USA in the interview is quoted as saying,
"It hurts me to say I think the time for violence has now
arrived...I'd like to see an AIDS terrorist army, like the Irgun
which led the state of Israel." (2) (History shows the Irgun was one of the first international terrorist bands started in the mid
1930's by Zionists. The Irgun considered its cause so just that the
many hundreds of men, women and children killed by it were
deemed a necessary price.)
Gay revolutionary Michael Swift has been reported as saying,
"If
you dare to cry faggot, fairy, queer at us, we will stab you in your
cowardly hearts and defile your dead puny bodies." (Does this
sound like tolerance to you?) "We shall raise vast private armies
as Mishima did, to defeat you. We shall conquer the world
because warriors inspired by and banded together by homosexual
love and honor are invincible as were the ancient Greek
soldiers...We shall be victorious because we are fueled with the
ferocious bitterness of the oppressed who have been forced to
play seemingly bit parts in your dumb, heterosexual shows
throughout the ages. We too, are capable of firing guns and
manning the barricades of the ultimate revolution. Tremble hetero
swine, when we appear before you without our masks." (3)
Urrashi Vaid, who has been called a "mainstream" gay leader and
has been executive director of the National Gay and Lesbian Task
Force, has also endorsed proposed militant strategies. (4)
Not only has the death penalty been promoted by homosexuals, it
is also apparent the death penalty comes with diseases connected
to the homosexual life style. Yet, homosexuals do not mind
promoting their lifestyle which, in reality, is to promote the death
penalty.
Because Leviticus 20:13 is an existing Law of our Creator, the
God of the Bible, then it's a fact of life that DEATH will be the
judgment for violating that Law. It becomes then just a matter of
who and how many are going to die.
WE CAN HAVE GOD'S LAW ON HOMOSEXUALS AND
THE JUDGMENT OF THE DEATH PENALTY IN AMERICA
and when or if we do, far fewer will die.
In the final analysis, there can only be God's Law or man's law.
Man's law (or more accurately, man's decree) according to public
law 97-280, should be in line with or in accord with God's Law
for there to be blessings as a nation of people. "Whereas the
Bible, the Word of God, has made a unique contribution in
shaping the United States as a distinctive and BLESSED nation
and people". (Emphasis added) (5)
History shows that the early settlements had the death penalty for
transgression of the Law concerning homosexuality. For
example, the following was in the General Court of Connecticut
1650: "By the General Court-Code of laws, established within the
Jurisdiction of Connecticut-1650...If any man lies with mankind
as he lies with women, both of them have committed abomination,
they both shall surely be put to death. Leviticus 20:13." (6)
History shows we were blessed as a nation and there was little
homosexuality and all the ills, heartaches and deaths that
accompany it.
According to article entitled, Arguments Against Gay Rights
Legislation, twenty five states now have or have had CRIMINAL
SODOMY LAWS. (7) Now, if states already have CRIMINAL
SODOMY LAWS and if once in America, our forefathers
enforced God's Law on homosexuality and since public law
97280 endorses God's Law and basically tells us and allows us to
do likewise, then we, today, can and should have God's Law
concerning Homosexuality (and its judgment of the death
penalty). All it would take is Christians with half the guts and
zeal the homosexuals have in spreading their life style, to start, state
by state, (as the homosexuals have done) in getting such legislated.

Let's go back to the scenario of the school speed zone
and its 20 MPH speed limit law. If one goes through the zone at
30 MPH and is never stopped, never ticketed and never fined, i.e.,
punished, then essentially the 20 MPH speed limit law is
worthless. Likewise, for the Judeo-Christian crowd to say they
are against homosexuality because Bible Law is against it and yet
refuse to advocate the judgment for violation of that law, is to
consider and render that Bible Law as worthless. In other words,
their argument against homosexuality rests upon something they
have deemed as worthless and consequently all their arguments
and feeble resistance (including trying to resend the gains
rightfully made by the homosexuals) are worthless. At best, all
they can do is fight on the defense and never do they go on the
offense to stop and eradicate a lawless behavior.
The fact that the death penalty exists among us in the form of
disease, serial murders, childless and grandchildless families
(which brings the death of a family name or lineage) due to
homosexuality, shows that Leviticus 20:13 is a Law. It's just a
matter of who and how many are going to die. For as the
Scripture says,
"Be not deceived, God is not mocked: for
whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap". Galatians 6:7
KJV
As a nation, people will reap the judgments of violating His
existing proper Law with its accompanying proper intolerance and
discrimination. After all, the Bible says not only is the
homosexual worthy of the death penalty, but also those who give
approval to it. "and, although they know the ordinance of God,
that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not
only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who
practice them." Romans 1:32 NASV.
The fact that as a people we have opted to follow His existing Law
in other areas is further testimony to the fact that we as a society
can do likewise with homosexuality. We have, for instance,
instituted the death penalty for first degree murder and for
kidnapping which is in accordance with God's Law. "But if a man
come presumptuously upon his neighbor to slay him with guile;
thou shalt take him from mine alter, that he may die." Exodus
21:14 KJV."and that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be
found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death." Exodus 21:16
KJV. Though the homosexual would have society believe
otherwise of his perverted lifestyle, the Bible, interestingly
enough,
categorizes him with the murderer and kidnapper. (See I
Corinthians 6:9,10 and I Timothy 1:8-10)
History shows that prior to the kidnapping of the Charles
Lindberg baby, kidnapping was a very prevalent, real threat to the
wealthy. After the death penalty for kidnapping was instituted,
however, that crime dried up in a hurry. The same would be true
concerning the crime i.e., the breaking of God's Law dealing with
homosexuality.
Return to Table of Contents.
CRIME, GOVERNMENT AND REVIVAL
We have seen how homosexuality is a violation of God's Law as
it's revealed in the Bible. In I John 3:4 (KJV), we read that sin is
a violation of Law.
"Whosoever commiteth sin transgresseth also
the law for sin is the transgression of the law."
In light of the
definition of sin, another word that could be used for sin is crime.
For example, according to the Bible, kidnapping and/or murder is
a "sin" but governmentally, we generally refer to it as a "crime".
Now, regardless of whether judges, legislators or politicians
decide to decree that such is not a crime or that such is allowed by
a constitution or by freedom of choice, or whatever man can
dream up, it is still a violation of the LAW OF GOD which is a
sin or a crime.
The Bible (which public law 97-280 says we are to apply) shows
the role of government is to punish criminals, referred to in
Romans 13 as those who do evil. "For rulers are not a cause of
fear for good behavior, but for evil. Do you want to have no fear
of authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the
same; for it is a minister of God to you for good. But if you do
what is evil, be afraid; for it does not bear the sword for nothing;
for it is a minister of God, an avenger who brings wrath upon the
one who practices evil." Romans 13:3,4 NASV.
In other words, proper Godly government is intolerant of evil
doers (i.e., criminals or sinners) and properly discriminates
against the same by upholding and enforcing the Creator God's
already existing Law. This is the role of government and when
the people of the land repent, they demand that just that be done,
revival takes place and consequently a healing of the land. "and
My people who are called by My name humble themselves and
pray, and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I
will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin, and will heal their
land." II Chronicles 7:14 NASV.
Such a revival and a healing of the land will never come so long as
we allow politicians to court and/or fear the homosexual votes, or
judges to rule against God. Or, as long as the people remain
apathetic to the lies that homosexuals have a right to choose their
own life style or, what two people do in the privacy of their own
home is of no concern or, as long as so-called Christians refuse to
demand the enforcement of their God's Law.

ANSWERING THE OBJECTIONS
TO THE ENFORCEMENT OF GOD'S LAW ON HOMOSEXUALITY
(The objections are not in any particular order.)
1) Jesus Never Condemned Homosexuality.
It could just as well be said that Jesus never specifically
condemned
kidnapping or beastiality but most would not be so foolish or
dishonest as to say He does not condemn such acts. Jesus
endorsed the "Law" when He said "Think not that I come to
destroy the law or the prophets: I have not come to destroy, but to
fulfill." Matthew 5:17 KJV. Nowhere or at any time did He
condemn the Law of God, but rather upheld it. In the process He
then upheld the death penalty. He did condemn the laws of the
Pharisees that made the Law of God of no effect (Matthew 15:6)
just as people do today.
2) Jesus Advocated Love Not Hate.
This is said in such a way as to accuse those who want God's Law
enforced in
society as being haters and without love. The greatest
commandment is: "...Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all
thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind." Matthew
22:37 KJV. Jesus Christ is our great God and Savior (John
20:28, John 1:1,14). He gave us His definition of love: "If you
love me, keep my commandments." John 14:15 KJV. Thus, for a
people to keep the commandment of Leviticus 20:13, is to love
their God.
3) Judge Not.
This bit of Scripture, normally flaunted by those who do not
even claim Scripture, has authority and yet they
try to use it to condemn those who advocate the Laws of
Scripture. Judging is a whole other study but suffice it to say,
Jesus also commanded His followers to judge. "...judge
righteous judgment." John 7:24 NASV. If judging is so wrong,
why do we allow criminals such as murderers or kidnappers to be
judged?
4) The Law is No Longer in Effect in Christianity. It Was Unrighteous and Against Us and Has Been Replaced with Love and Grace.
This argument mistakes the old Law Covenant made
with ancient Israel at Mount Sinai with its many rituals and animal
sacrifices. For the Laws, Statutes and Judgments of God which
existed even before then (Genesis 26:5) still exist today. That
Law with its statutes and judgments the Bible calls righteous
(Deuteronomy 4:8) and is what the Christian Scriptures teach is
good for use in such crimes as murder, kidnapping,
homosexuality, etc. "But we know that the Law is good, if one
uses it lawfully, realizing the fact that law is not made for a
righteous man, but for those who are lawless and rebellious, for
the ungodly and for sinners for the unholy and profane, for those
who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers and immoral men
and homosexuals and kidnappers and liars and perjurers, and
whatever else is contrary to sound teaching." I Timothy 8-10
NASV. Remember Jesus said His followers were not to think
He came to abolish it (Matthew 5:17). (For more information on
this subject, we recommend our 6 part cassette tape series entitled,
The Law for an $18.00 offering. Order)
5) What People Do In The Privacy Of Their Own Home Is Their Business.
If this is true, then why does
society have laws concerning gambling in homes, or prostitution
services being performed in homes? God's Law on
homosexuality said nothing of whether it was done privately in a
home or publicly on a park bench.
6) This Is America And You Have The Freedom To Choose An Alternate Life Style Known As Homosexuality.
Our forefathers did not fight and die in
1776 for anyone's right to practice homosexuality least why
would they have upheld criminal sodomy laws and why would
even today 25 states have criminal sodomy laws? Certainly Jesus
did not die so as to give one the freedom to be a homosexual
anymore than He died to give one the freedom to be a murderer.
"Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the
kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor
idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor
thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers,
shall inherit the kingdom of God." I Corinthians 6:9,10
NASV
7) We Cannot Legislate Morality.
All legislation is of a moral or immoral nature. Law, by its
very nature, pertains to morality. It's just a matter of who's
morality we are going to enforce or legislate, God's or man's?
8) Homosexuals Can't Help Themselves. They Are Born That Way. They Are A Poor, Misunderstood And Persecuted People, Etc., Etc.
So man categorizes them, but the Bible says they are
a people with a reprobate mind worthy of death. "And 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. And 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; being filled
with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness,
maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity;
whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters,
inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, without
understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection,
implacable, unmerciful: who knowing the judgment of God, that
they which commit such things are WORTHY OF DEATH, not
only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them."
Romans 1:27-32 KJV (Emphasis added)
Concerning reprobate minds, consider the following report.
"New Jersey: The six leading serial killers in the U.S. are: Donald
Harvey (37 victims), John Wayne Gacy (23 victims), Patrick
Kearney (32 victims), Bruce Davis (28 victims), Corli-Henley-
Brooks (27 victims), & Juan Corona (25 victims). The NY Times
quotes detectives as saying all were "motivated by a sense of
shame after having (homo) sexual relations with their victims."
(8) Regardless of what causes people to choose this life style,
applied Bible Law will stop it and cure it once and for all.
9) The Bible Teaches Homosexuals Can Come To
The Saving Grace Of Christ.
This is true according to I Corinthians 6:11 (NASV).
"And such were some of you; but you
were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the
name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and in the Spirit of our God."
However, the record seems to indicate that once people get deep
into the sexual perversion of homosexuality, few ever choose to
repent and turn back from it. Regardless, this still does not mean
society cannot institute the death penalty for this crime just as it
has for the crime of murder. No one says a murderer cannot
repent and come to Christ nor does society allow such a
conversion to stop the death penalty from being carried out.
(Concerning homosexuality, once society puts into force God's
Law and judgment concerning this crime, it would be from that
moment forward that it would apply. It could be dealt with as Ex
Post Facto Law and still there would be a trail and evidence just as
the Law of God requires.)

Because Leviticus 20:13 is the existing Law of our Creator God,
there is the judgment of DEATH. If we as a society refuse to
repent and acquire righteous government to punish this crime with
the death penalty, then even more will die. For this author not to
so warn or so state would be for me, in principle, to fall under the
condemnation of Ezekiel 3:17-21 (NASV).
"Son of man, I have
appointed you a watchman to the house of Israel; whenever you
hear a word from My mouth, warn them from Me. When I say to
the wicked, 'You shall surely die'; and you do not warn him or
speak out to warn the wicked from his wicked way that he may
live, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood I will
require at your hand. Yet if you have warned the wicked, and he
does not turn from his wickedness or from his wicked way, he
shall die in his iniquity; but you have delivered yourself. Again,
when a righteous man turns away from his righteousness and
commits iniquity, and I place an obstacle before him, he shall die;
since you have not warned him, he shall die in his sin, and his
righteous deeds which he has done shall not be remembered; but
his blood I will require at your hand. However, if you have
warned the righteous man that the righteous should not sin, and he
does not sin, he shall surely live because he took warning; and
you have delivered yourself."
Homosexuals will continue to spread their form of death and will
continue to recruit the people's sons and daughters and threaten
and carry out their threats against any who oppose them.
Consider the writings of their own prophets.

Homosexual Activist Outlines Goals Of Homosexual Movement
by Michael Swift, "Gay Revolutionary"
(from the Gay Community News, Feb. 15-21, 1987,
reprinted from The Congressional Record)
"We shall sodomize your sons, emblems of your feeble
masculinity, of your shallow dreams and vulgar lies. We shall
seduce them in your schools, in your dormitories, in your
gymnasiums, in your locker rooms, in your sports arenas, in your
seminaries, in your youth groups, in your movie theater
bathrooms, in your army bunkhouses, in your truck stops, in your
all male clubs, in your houses of Congress, wherever men are with
men together. Your sons shall become our minions and do our
bidding. They will be recast in our image. They will come to
crave and adore us.
Women, you cry for freedom. You say you are no longer
satisfied with men; they make you unhappy. We, connoisseurs of
the masculine face, the masculine physique, shall take your men
from you then. We will amuse them; we will instruct them; we
will embrace them when they weep. Women, you say you wish to
live with each other instead of with men. Then go and be with
each other. We shall give your men pleasures they have never
known because we are foremost men too, and only one man
knows how to truly please another man; only one man can
understand the depth and feeling, the mind and body of another
man.
All laws banning homosexual activity will be revoked. Instead,
legislation shall be passed which engenders love between men.
All homosexuals must stand together as brothers; we must be
united artistically, philosophically, socially, politically and
financially. We will triumph only when we present a common
face to the vicious heterosexual enemy.
If you dare to cry faggot, fairy, queer, at us, we will stab you in
your cowardly hearts and defile your dead, puny bodies.
We shall write poems of the love between men; we shall stage
plays in which man openly caresses man; we shall make films
about the love between heroic men which will replace the cheap,
superficial, sentimental, insipid, juvenile, heterosexual
infatuations
presently dominating your cinema screens. We shall sculpt
statues of beautiful young men, of bold athletes which will be
placed in your parks, your squares, your plazas. The museums of
the world will be filled only with paintings of graceful, naked lads.
Our writers and artists will make love between men fashionable
and de rigueur, and we will succeed because we are adept at
setting styles. We will eliminate heterosexual liaisons through
usage of the devices of wit and ridicule, devices which we are
skilled in employing.
We will unmask the powerful homosexuals who masquerade as
heterosexuals. You will be shocked and frightened when you find
that your presidents and their sons, your industrialists, your
senators, your mayors, your generals, your athletes, your film
stars, your television personalities, your civic leaders, your
priests
are not the safe, familiar, bourgeois, heterosexual figures you
assumed them to be. We are everywhere; we have infiltrated your
ranks. Be careful when you speak of homosexuals because we
are always among you; we may be sitting across the desk from
you; we may be sleeping in the same bed with you.
There will be no compromises. We are not middle-class
weaklings. Highly intelligent, we are the natural aristocrats of the
human race, and steely-minded aristocrats never settle for less.
Those who oppose us will be exiled.
We shall raise vast private armies, as Mishima did, to defeat you.
We shall conquer the world because warriors inspired by and
banded together by homosexual love and honor are invincible as
were the ancient Greek soldiers.
The family unit-spawning ground of lies, betrayals, mediocrity,
hypocrisy and violence--will be abolished. The family unit, which
only dampens imagination and curbs free will, must be eliminated.
Perfect boys will be conceived and grown in the genetic
laboratory. They will be bonded together in communal setting,
under the control and instruction of homosexual savants.
All churches who condemn us will be closed. Our only gods are
handsome young men. We adhere to a cult of beauty, moral and
esthetic. All that is ugly and vulgar and banal will be annihilated.
Since we are alienated from middle-class heterosexual
conventions, we are free to live our lives according to the dictates
of the pure imagination. For us too much is not enough.
The exquisite society to emerge will be governed by an elite
comprised of gay poets. One of the major requirements for a
position of power in the new society of homoeroticism will be
indulgence in the Greek passion. Any man contaminated with
heterosexual lust will be automatically barred from a position of
influence. All males who insist on remaining stupidly
heterosexual will be tried in homosexual courts of justice and will
become invisible men.
We shall rewrite history, history filled and debased with your
heterosexual lies and distortions. We shall portray the
homosexuality of the great leaders and thinkers who have shaped
the world. We will demonstrate that homosexuality and
intelligence and imagination are inextricably linked, and that
homosexuality is a requirement for true nobility, true beauty in a
man.
We shall be victorious because we are fueled with the ferocious
bitterness of the oppressed who have been forced to play
seemingly bit parts in your dumb, heterosexual shows throughout
the ages. We too are capable of firing guns and manning the
barricades of the ultimate revolution.
Tremble, hetero swine, when we appear before you without our
masks."
History shows, however, that it is just a matter of time before
courageous men rise up and do what unrighteous government
refuses to do. (Judges 20, I Samuel 15:33, Numbers 25:4-11 are
just a few Bible historical accounts that attest to this fact.)
There will be far less death and suffering if society simply
enforces Sodomy Criminal laws in every state in the union in
accordance with His righteous, existing Law. The facts of this
writing show it can and should be done. Pray Christians take
the initiative and do so least a worst judgment of death befalls us
as a nation.
