Why Being Gay Is Okay

Christianity was intended to be a safe space for "whosoever believes in Him." Unfortunately too many humans have attempted to make it an "exclusive club" for the straight, the beautiful and/or the physically perfect. The results have turned God's safe space into a judgment zone. In its most tragic manifestation, people of various walks of life have been driven to despair, disillusionment and even suicide. Here's an attempt to undo a little of the damage. This article uses scriptural proofs in a fun way to enumerate God's love for the LGBT community, and by extrapolation, for us all. Let's open our minds and entertain the concept of a God who asks simply that we love Him above all else, and love our neighbor just as we love ourselves.

Here are the Top 10 ways We Know God Loves Gay People (with Bible Scriptures!)

10 - God and Gay both start with a "G".

9 - God knew we would be gay before we were born - and He made us anyway. - (Jeremiah 1:5; Isaiah 49:1; Romans 8:28-31). He let LGBT people write some of His favorite Gospel songs, direct some of His favorite choirs and called many to television and megachurch ministries.

8 - LBGT = Loved By God Truly!

7 - He structured salvation such that every man who wants to be a Christian must learn to love a man named Jesus. - (John 14:23).

6 - Jesus never said anything against homosexuality and He approved gender reassignment surgery. - (Matthew 19:12)

5 - God uses rainbows in the sky to show his love and covenant of peace with humanity. - (Genesis 9:13) There's even a rainbow around His throne. - (Revelations 4:3)

4 - He published David and Jonathan's tragic love story in His best-seller, the Bible. - (1 Samuel 18:1-4; 1 Samuel 20:40-42; 2 Samuel 1:25-27)

3 - In the Beginning, all humans were created intersex. - (Genesis 1:27; Genesis 2:21-23)

2 - He designed a FABulous wedding in the Holy City of New Jerusalem and invited all his children (male, female and intersex) to come dressed in a gorgeous bridal gown. - (Revelations 19:5-9; Revelations 21:9-11)

1 - And the top way we know God loves gay people? God IS LOVE. - (I John 4:16; John 3:16)

"For With God Nothing Is Impossible" Luke 1:37

The Message (MSG) John 3:16-18
16-18"This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. God didn't go to all the trouble of sending his Son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was. He came to help, to put the world right again. Anyone who trusts in him is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust him has long since been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why? Because of that person's failure to believe in the one-of-a-kind Son of God when introduced to him.
