MESSAGE TO REV. JIM CUNNINGHAM FROM THE GAYCHRISTIANSURVIVORS.COM VISITOR'S COMMENTS PAGE:
"Do you know how harshly Jesus is going to judge you when you stand at the Great White Throne? You are one of those He says proclaim His name but He knows them not. You know in your own heart in the King James Version that God says homosexuality is a sin. You cannot change Gods standards just by lying to yourself and others here on earth. You are making a very bad decision." - Danny
Danny, I have received your reply from the GayChristianSurvivors.com website.
All you've done is give me your own personal, condemning, biased opinion. Do you know how harshly Jesus is going to judge you for daring to presume the power of God who alone has authority to condemn? Furthermore, the words "homosexual" and "homosexuality" do not occur anywhere in the King James Bible, however Jesus spoke positively about homosexuals three times in the Gospels, including His discussion of believers being separated from unbelievers in the last days, "I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left." - Luke 17:34.
Like so many other self-righteous heterosexists using God's name to hide behind (in violation of the 3rd Commandment), you've given ZERO biblical proof to refute my biblical argument on my site. If you think that something on my website is false, then why don't you say what it is and prove from the Bible why you think it is wrong, rather than taking impotent potshots at me? I'll tell you why you didn't use the Bible to defend your Nazi beliefs. It's because: 1) the story of Sodom & Gomorrha is a story about an attempted gang rape of angels and says nothing about homosexuality; 2) Ezekiel 16:49-50 states specifically why Sodom & Gomorrha were destroyed and it says nothing about homosexuality; 3) Leviticus 18 & 20 condemns heterosexual men who fornicate with males but say nothing about homosexuals, 4) Romans 1 condemns heterosexual married men who leave their wives to fornicate with men but says nothing about homosexuals, 5) 1st Corinthians 6:9-11 talks about effeminate men but says nothing about homosexuality, 6) and Jude 1:7 talks about the people of Sodom & Gomorrha committing fornication and attempting to sexually assault the angels but says nothing about homosexuality.
It is YOU who have added "homosexual" to the text of the Word of God because of your own heterosexist lust.
So, since NONE of those verses talk about homosexuality, what NEW bible verse have you found that condemns homosexuals? What verses will you now pervert to make God appear to be a lustful bigot like yourself?
The Scriptures (1st Timothy 1:7) warned about people like you, "desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm." You have no idea what you are talking about; you are preaching from your lust for the opposite sex and you are blinded by it, so that you have left the Faith altogether to preach the doctrines of the Devil as it is written in 1st Timothy 4:1-3:
"Now the Spirit speaketh expressly that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their conscience seared with a hot iron, FORBIDDING TO MARRY!"
Here we are at the Latter Times, Danny, and same-gender marriage is the only form of marriage that fallen Christians like you have waged a war against.
I assure you that it is you that has made a very bad decision, and you will give account for every homosexual soul that you pushed into the Lake of Fire by turning them away from Christ through your disgusting bigotry, as it was spoken by Jesus Himself and written by Matthew in 22:13/15:
"Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in... Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves."
I have not changed God's standards, Danny; you and your kind have invented your own standards based on your own biased opinions, and have inflicted them upon the Body of Christ, claiming YOUR standards to be GOD'S standards.
I save souls. You destroy them. Tell me, Danny, which of us is doing the will of the Father in heaven?
Rev. Jim Cunningham, D.D. King James Bible Ministries International

Pastor,
I read your response to Danny. I am sure your Master, Jesus, would not have eviscerated him as you did. You invite all opinions, and in this case, when his opinion was given you angrily attacked him. Since you are an advocate of men who lay with men, regardless of their reason why, I reasoned that you would be much more tender to these men when their opinions ran contrary to your opinion, than you were to Danny.
You call it hate when others attack the mindset and behavior of men who lay with men, because they are not heterosexual. Yet, to me you were a worse example of hateful reaction, because as servants of Jesus, we should react as He would react when confronted by opposition to our understanding of the Biblical position.
As an evangelist, part of my calling is to teach Christian leaders, which I am attempting to do here. It seems to be a given that Danny is not as familiar with Scripture as you are, and that He is not charged with being a Christ like example, as you and I are charged.
Since you are trying to influence others to be merciful and understanding of those who are different and think differently from them, you may want to set a better example. It was Jesus who took the beating, not those who did not understand. By His example, we are the ones who take the beating, not the Dannys of the world - 1 Pet 2:15-21. God supports obedience to His ways. He does not support ministers pushing the sheep away. See His reaction to the Pharisees when they pushed the sheep away.
God would not call this hate mail. To Him this is Love mail.

Wow, that's what you took away from this? That I didn't correct him with a bouquet and a kiss? I'm afraid that I must respectfully disagree with your process of keeping order in the Church. When speaking to "sinners" and "the Lost", Jesus and the disciples were kind and merciful and tender (unlike the Old Testament prophets who screamed hellfire & damnation & curses at sinners); BUT, when speaking to religious hypocrites who are claiming to speak in the name of God, who ought to have known better, Jesus and the disciples HARSHLY LAMBASTED them and called them out in front of everyone (I quoted just two of the many tongue lashings by Jesus in my reply), AND Paul ordered us to do the same. Jesus even made a whip and BEAT people in His Temple, Paul said that when he found that Peter was teaching false doctrines, "I WITHSTOOD PETER TO HIS FACE!" in front of the whole church. What the Church teaches is a matter of life and death; there is no room for nonsense. The commander in a battlefield does not tell a willful soldier, "Gee, it would be so nice of you if, ya know, you might stop shooting the innocent villagers; I mean, I don't want to offend you or anything, but it's not a very nice thing to do." I would admonish you to put the focus on the message not the messenger, otherwise no one will get anywhere. And you are greatly mistaken if you confuse discipline or correction with hate. All I can assume is that you approve of the evil that was said by that attacker - blaspheming the Word of God and pretending to defend God's Word - since your only comment was against my correction of him. You clearly do not consider it important to concern yourself with the New Testament command to "contend for the Faith", and you would rather allow that wolf to attack and slaughter the Father's sheep for fear of not correcting him nicely enough. I'm afraid you would make a poor shepherd. The BIBLICAL duty of a shepherd is to protect his flock at all cost against ravening wolves and prowling lions. If you think that that is arrogance, then you will need to take that up with my Father. He made the rules. And He made me the shepherd of this flock under His Son Jesus Christ. Now, if you'd like to discuss the issue that was raised by Danny, that is more appropriate to this forum. If that is not acceptable to you, well, there are other flocks with shepherds who will gladly let you run your own way without warning you of the wolf for fear of offending your sensitivity.
