You're going to see. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Hello friends, Greg Kockel here for stand to reason.

Thanks for being part of the show today.

We are launching into our new year here and I'm just thinking this is January 9th.

I think, no, it must have been February.

I'm trying to think of the first day

that I started broadcasting in 1990, a different millennium. I think it was February 10th or something. I'll have to check that out.

Not sure. But anyway, we're launched out here and glad that you've joined me. I have an article I want to start with here that

is a little bit stunning for me to read because I have been talking about how evangelical accommodation to homosexuality in the church is a kind of bellwether or a watershed of sorts, a marker historically that we're in deep trouble.

Because as I pointed out, along with a number of other controversial issues, there is no ambiguity

here about what the scripture teaches regarding this behavior or these kinds of relationships.

In fact, it teaches against it so aggressively

that it says in 1st Corinthians chapter 6 verse 9

that people who engage in these kinds of things not just

the sexual state of homosexuality but other sexual sin which is is in many cases

rampant in the church today.

They will not inherit the kingdom of God.

They are not in the kingdom.

These practices are evidence that they're outside of the kingdom.

And so we've talked about that, been talking about it for decades actually,

because the point needs to continue to be made because Christians are confused and all around them

there seem to be movements to affirm

gay relationships
