Tammy Faye's Service Conducted by a Gay Minister

"Tammy Faye", someone that almost everyone has heard of. She recently passed away and has been touted in the Christian community as someone who knows "how to die". Tammy Faye is remembered for her past with Jim Bakker and the whole PTL thing. She remarried and "made a comeback". Tammy Faye Messner's private funeral service was conducted by an openly gay minister. This, according to her second husband, was one of her "final instructions". In my opinion this speaks loads of Tammy Faye and her so called "Christian" beliefs. You either believe in the infallibility of scripture or you don't. The scriptures clearly state that homosexuality is WRONG. How can anyone who claims to be a minister of the Gospel, or just a Christian for that matter, think that it is open to interpretation?

9 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, 10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 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 and by the Spirit of our God. -1 Corinthians 6:9-11

If you truly become saved and Jesus is your Lord, you allow Him to deliver you. You STOP practicing homosexuality because God's Word says it is wrong. This is just another example of the time that we live in. Men create their own gospel to tickle the ears of the people. No where does God's Word tell us that we have to compromise to fit the times. Homosexuals can be saved, but Jesus always told people to "go and sin no more". Grace is not a license to sin. It is great to tell of the love of God, but God is also a Just God and a God of wrath.
The truth Must be told and the lies exposed. Homosexuality is WRONG! It is a SIN! God's Word says that those who practice it WILL NOT inherit the Kingdom! "Repent" means to turn away from.
