Ok, so here’s the scoop; back in January of 2006 in the piece Brian McLaren on the Homosexual Question: Finding a Pastoral Response the leading Guru of Emergence Christianity whispered:

I  hesitate in answering “the homosexual question” not because I’m a cowardly flip-flopper who wants to tickle ears, but because I am a pastor, and pastors have learned from Jesus that there is more to answering a question than being right or even honest: we must also be . . . pastoral…

 Most of the emerging leaders I know share my agony over this question… Frankly, many of us don’t know what we should think about homosexuality. We’ve heard all sides but no position has yet won our confidence so that we can say “it seems good to the Holy Spirit and us.” …

Perhaps we need a five-year moratorium on making pronouncements. In the meantime, we’ll practice prayerful Christian dialogue, listening respectfully, disagreeing agreeably. When decisions need to be made, they’ll be admittedly provisional. We’ll keep our ears attuned to scholars in biblical studies, theology, ethics, psychology, genetics, sociology, and related fields.

Then in five years, if we have clarity, we’ll speak; if not, we’ll set another five years for ongoing reflection. After all, many important issues in church history took centuries to figure out. Maybe this moratorium would help us resist the “winds of doctrine” blowing furiously from the left and right, so we can patiently wait for the wind of the Spirit to set our course. (Online source)

Well, for those who are practicing a homosexual lifestyle, or like me have family members who do, and you wonder what “scholars in biblical studies” and “pastoral” pastors like Brian McLaren believe God says concerning homosexuality, you can now take heart. Seems that now you only have two more years to wait! Yep, by then McLaren feels that he and his fellow deceivers in the Emergence rebellion against Sola Scriptura will finally have received the delusion they’re busy seeking through the “Christian” brand of transcendental meditation they call Contemplative/Centering Prayer.

Unfortunately for these Emerging fools—regardless of their pious blather—they are already lying to you when they tell you they cannot say “it seems good to the Holy Spirit.” The truth is God the Holy Spirit has already spoken quite clearly in the Bible; none of us, in our sin, will enter Heaven aka the Kingdom of God — Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God (1 Corinthians 6:9-10).

I humbly suggest that you don’t wait for these Emergent apostates mystical musings; no instead, won’t you please listen to the following from my friend John Lanagan. Hear him as he tells us that he and his wife have repented of “this sexual sin” of homosexuality. You see, I happen to know that John wants you to understand that in Jesus there really is hope for the hopeless:

We belong to Jesus Christ, and we rely on His Word. When I was thirty eight years old, I was informed my father had AIDS. I discovered that he had had a secret life for decades. Once having learned this, much of his misery, his desperate drinking, and his fear and anger began to make sense. My father sobered up in his later years, went to a psychiatrist who convinced him homosexuality was normal, and died of AIDS in the late 1980s. He was in a coma the last three days, and I hold to the hope that Christ came to him.

While I hadn’t known about my father’s secret sin, he never knew about mine. In the early 1990s, I traveled to New York, prepared to fully commit myself to a lifestyle I never did feel right about. I could not seem to escape it. It was a demonic dimension of drag queens, transsexual bars, and drug and alcohol drenched nightclubs. While I am not purposely trying to provoke anyone, neither am I going to deny there is something very strong and very evil behind our nation’s ever-escalating celebration of sexual perversion.

The Lord in His mercy sent a Christian couple to the shelter where I was staying. They knew exactly what I was up to, and ministered powerfully to me. For years the Lord helped me as I fought this thing. Until now, I have given my testimony and told how the Lord delivered me from being addicted to alcohol, heroin, and life on the streets. I have always been ashamed of the sexual sin that I have committed, and the enemy has used this as a weapon. So I have stayed silent, fearing rejection from my fellow believers.

My wife has waited patiently for me. “Hurry up,” she says, “let’s get on with it.” There is hope in Christ, and she is not ashamed. Time is short—and how times have changed. People are growing up being told that any kind of sexual sin is perfectly normal. Homosexuality and other offenses unto God are celebrated. We are truly in the time spoken about in Isaiah 5:20: Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.

As His people, there must be no backing down. Homosexuality is sin, and all the sit-coms and pro-gay movies in the world cannot change that. Sin is sin, and it is appalling how some Christians ignore unmarried heterosexuals who attend church but blatantly live together. Know anybody like this? Despite the world’s celebration of homosexuality, many do not want to be in such bondage. I don’t have all the answers. But I know the One who does.
