Robert: Real Love (Different Stories #8)
This episode contains discussion of childhood sexual abuse, depression, and suicidal thoughts.
Sometimes God breaks into our lives in the most unlikely circumstances. Robert was sexually abused by a teacher at school, forced into becoming a Christian, and went on to marry a woman and lead a church - all while being same-sex attracted and not truly knowing Jesus. From there things fell apart, and Robert began living as an out gay man. Only later would he come to know the love of God for the first time, and give his life to Christ.

    "We at Living Out do not accept gay couples. But we will use the best filming equipments to act cool and draw cute graphics to embed our exclusion into a soft pillow. We do not care how much gay couples, who refuse to break up, want to follow Jesus. It does not even in the slightest matter if they are nice to their children or parents, to others, homeless etc. Everything stops counting once they decide to stay in their relationships. That's why we would never record a story of a non-celibate gay. In addition, nobody at Living Out can exactly describe what drives god so angry that he would torture gay couples endlessly for something that did not cause even the slightest harm. That's who we are. How great!"

    Wouldn't teaching folks to make a bridge between collectivism and individuality be the best way? Help children discern between situations where the collective good is the highest good and those where individual sacrifice is counterproductive, unnecessary or even a lie? It seems to me that this longing for a return to pre modern values has a heavy bent towards nostalgia. As Simone de Beauvoir said, nostalgia isn't what it used to be!

    Jesus doesn't change you're right. But we can change, because HE changes US! Its not Him saying "come as you are stay as you are!" He's saying "Come as you are and let me transform you into a new creation". You really need to be convicted over your sexuality and ask him to change you, and He will.

Unfortunately nowadays people just gives excuses for not commit themselves to God ways. We need to endure temptations, pain, and many many more struggles . We really need to rely on Jesus to gives us strength and hope through difficulties in life. May God keep using to help those with the same struggle you go through. Peace

    Gracias por publicar la entrevista. Como iglesia necesitamos revisar como estamos abordando el tema de la soltería y el matrimonio: requerimos cuestionarnos sobre si nuestra visión de ambos estados de la vida tiende a ser mas cultural o situacional que bíblica. Es sumamente importante porque no son temas abstractos ni lejanos: tiene que ver con la vida de personas y de futuros creyentes. Que Dios nos ayude a tener convicción y volver a su Palabra, para ser mas eficaces en la evangelización, ser testigos al mundo y también, para ser iglesias sanas. ¡Les animo a que sigan realizando esta clase de trabajo!

  • @Jointknight

    Andrew I'm pretty sure you've decontextualized the passage on divorce and marriage. I could be wrong, but it seems like what's really being said is that the sexual conflict between men and women often comes to a bad end due to the incongruity of sexual interest between men and women. Which is why the disciples suggest it is better not to marry. the point being in particular that if you cannot divorce your wife when she is uninterested in sex you have really have no recourse, or conversely if the man is a tyrant and that's an issue because you can't legally get rid of the problem. You have to find a way to make it work. By suggesting this is about 'choosing celibacy' you're ignoring the fact that they don't have a good reason to not to find agreement. Any and every reason means I can choose to get out if it's 'not working well.' I understand that you may find that this is not explicitly stated, and that's a fair argument that I could be reading into this more than is there. But I think this is a problem likely because you have never had the position to make a marriage work, and this is all too common for married men and women. there are of course other reasons marriage doesn't work, but this is by far the most common, which is essentially the man wants more sex and more exploratory sex and the women wants less which is almost always the case. When you are looking at Paul's statement, he is essentially sacrificing a married life for what you could call more or less a career, while that's not exactly what's going on it's comparatively very similar. There's no room there for marriage. When again looking at Matthew Christ saying the same thing that a house divided will fall which is the proof of why it doesn't work. when you are in the honeymoon period, no matter your love for God, your wife takes precedence by caveat and in truth. Same thing when nesting which is why duty in the first year of marriage was given leave, and when you're sons or daughters reach age of reciprocation your love for them is unrivaled, nepotism isn't just a fancy word people throw around, it's very for real. I hope this helps.

    If you delete or reject the messages sent from the messenger of Malachi 3:1 you reject Jesus and will automatically be blacked out from the Holy Spirit until you either repent or wait too late and die with the wicked. Selling anything using the gospel is PURE EVIL! Malachi 2 PROVES Malachi 3:8-11 is prophetic instruction for the thieving fake ministers to return the money and God will end Covid. But all the fakes love money more than listening to God. Murderers! Mathew 19:12 🏳️‍🌈 Eunuchs that are born that way are transgender. 🏳️‍🌈 Eunuchs made that way by others were abused. 🏳️‍🌈 Those that choose to live like Eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven are bisexual people that choose partners of the same sex but opposite in gender. I am Elijah of Malachi 4:5-6. Acts 3:22-23 says it will come to pass that anyone that fails to listen to me will be utterly destroyed from among the people. Anyone collecting money for ministering in any way is now blacked out from the Holy Spirit and will be until they either repent or wait too late and die. Same goes for anyone teaching same sex marriage is a sin when it is not. Male or female is determined by gender, located in the brain. I am the forerunner to the return of Jesus, who was transgender and will return as a woman. Most of the famous prophets from the Bible were transgender as well, including David and Joseph. STAY OUT OF THE FAKE CHURCHES IF YOU WANT TO LIVE. You choose to go there then you are supporting their evil and will also be held accountable... Everyone still has a gender when the kingdom of heaven touches down. ........
