You can be LGBT and Christian 👨❤️👨
This is one of the most delicate, sensitive and very important topic. Thank you Pastor Mark Finley for talking about it…I’m sure and probably you know, that regardless how careful and articulate and cautious are you with your words. There will be people who will hate this message… regardless…. I pray that the mercy of God will be upon us.
Lord have mercy on us…
Your god is a psychopath... just the opposite of Jesus... there can be no mercy from a god like this.
Thank God for the Bible. What a wonderful book. All we have to do is read it and it guides us in every aspect of our lives. Amen🙏Thank you Lord.
That wonderful book has gotten hundreds of millions of innocent people killed over nothing. It's the worst book that humans ever wrote or followed. The God of the bible is a psychopathic abuser, just the opposite of Jesus. Your bible teaches "might makes right' over love.
Thank you, Pastor Mark, for your wonderful presentation as always of God's holy Word. Your sermon is both full of holy boldness and God's immeasurable love for His fallen people.
Thanks for watching. May God bless you.
Amen 🙏 pastor we living in a sick 😷 world may God open our eyes and ears and find refuge in Him 🙏
Thanks for watching. May God bless you.
I am speechless and in awe of the integrity of this sermon, Pr Mark. Hope to see you again soon...
Thank you for the message May God bless you and protect you we are waiting for you in Uganda for the upcoming evangelism of September 2023.
The message of today came at the right time.
Thanks for watching. May God bless you.
Thank you for differentiation between the love for the errant AND the sin itself. Your message is one I can feel comfortable sharing. Thank you Pastor Finley.🙏
There is no difference. Humans are incapable of separating the sin from the sinner and will only hurt and persecute "the other". Even your God can't separate the sin from the sinner and just burns sinners in hell. You're just picking on a group of innocent folks... the least powerful and most vulnerable in our society.
Thank you for speaking the truth Mark.God bless you.
Thank you Pastor Mark for speaking up about this. God bless you ❤
Thanks for watching. May God bless you.
Happy Sabbath !! This is a precious message nowadays.
Happy Sabbath!
Happy Sabbath
I’m REALLY glad to hear the church’s position on this. We must all prepare for the battle coming upon us for this stance. Cling to Christ’s example of humility while unwavering from the truth
Thank you Pastor. We need to speak up about these issues. We are a people of the Bible.
We will love our neighbour no matter who he or she is, as we are all sinners in the end and are not better than any other person, but we will condemn the sin itself but have the promis and therefore know that with the help of the Holy Spirit we can overcome any sin or habit or sinfol desires no matter what it is.
Amen. Thanks for watching. May God bless you.
Amen and amen!
Take aways: 53:56
1.God has created all himan beings in His image. Through the fall we all have tendencies, propensities toward evil.
2. God calls us to love not hate. The Christian ethic calls us to be compassionate and respectful of one another.
3. To love another does not mean we approve a lifestyle out of harmony with God’s will. The most loving thing we can do is to share the amazing grace of God that forgives our past, transforms our present, and gives us hope for the future.
4. The LGBTQ+ lifestyle is not in harmony with the Bible and according to scripture deviates from God’s will and is sin.
5. Through the grace of God all of us can experience new life in Christ through His transforming grace.
You are biblically right.
Unfortunately, most sufferers will not accept our love in Christ until they see the truth of God about their bias/confusion of identity.
as long as this is not the case, they will see us as intolerant and loveless and will not want to do anything with this God, who is unjust in their eyes.
That's why we have to pray for these people.
Also for those who have accepted Christ but are still unaware of their sinful homosexual behavior or their true identity in Christ as a created woman or man.
Du hast biblisch so Recht.
Leider werden die meisten Betroffenen unsere Liebe in Christus nicht annehmen, solange sie die Wahrheit Gottes über ihre Neigung/Verwirrung ihrer Identität nicht erkennen.
solange das nicht der Fall ist, werden sie uns als Intolerant und lieblos sehen und mit diesem, in ihren Augen ungerechten, Gott nichts anfangen wollen.
Deshalb müssen wir betend für diese Menschen einstehen.
Auch für die, die Christus angenommen haben, aber noch keine Erkenntnis über ihr sündhaftes homosexuelles Verhalten haben oder sich ihrer wahren Identität in Christus als geschaffene Frau oder Mann, bewusst sind.
SDA's are the most unloving people I ever met. @@user-ox1ph1wk6d
I grew up as a SDA, baptised at the age 14, went to the SDA school, but had to transfer to a public school to do year 11 and 12. Couldn’t afford to go to the SDA colleges so I went to a University closer to my home town. Then life happened and I strayed from the church. I have always had one foot in the door so to speak, but I had lost my way and my passion for the Lord. Its been over 30 years and I am trying to find my way back. With such a large gap I have noticed just how much the ways of the church and the people in it have changed. Including some influential people of the church. On one hand its like we should be accepting of all that come into the SDA church as that is the teachings of Jesus, to be accepting of everyone and to show them the way unto the Lord. This includes LGBTQ+ individuals. However, some of them want it both ways, that is to gain the love of Christ without changing their ways. How do we know that this is not the work of the devil to try and influence the christian community within the house of the Lord.? Its almost like how one rotten apple if left long enough will eventually spoil the good fruit around it. Plus how are charasmatic christians these days allowed to come into the SDA church and still be allowed to behave in ways that is not accepted nor taught by the SDA church. My first impression was, what has happened to the SDA church. Why are they slacking off on what use to be such high reverent standards. So much has changed, and these are just a couple of examples, which really has me quite concerned as a whole about the church and its current standards. Sometimes I wonder just what I have walked back into. Perhaps I am just looking for that old time religion that I once new and loved. However, now more than ever, I need all the help I can get to bring my family and myself unto the Lord. But if what I am seeing doesn’t bring me confidence within how the SDA churches are run these days, then what hope have my family and myself got.? If you cant trust the church and what goes on within it, then what honest hope have you got? I am an Australian and not an American, but it seems like the same thing is happening all around the world. The devil is obviously working overtime, particularly within our churches. Which can often be difficult for one to navigate their way back to the Lord, particularly when you have been away for so long. The only person I truly trust right now and have felt comfortable enough with the truth of the message is my Dad. He was the one that directed me to start watching Mark Finlay, and his sermons., along with a few other well presented speakers. I thank the Lord for his direction, as I know I am going to feel alone and quiet vulnerable when the time comes for him to sleep until Jesus comes.
I share the same views with you, I am not a born SDA but came in from churchless to catholic then SDA. What attracted me to SDA is nolonger there, is that those men of God in the rural areas are not the same as the urban pastors? Everything seems different for the last decade and this has led me to stop going to church in totality.

Timely information presented in a good way , it’s sad rainbows 🌈 is identified with LGBT and children are targeted , children have pure spirit which can be mislead. Good people like mark making videos in this topic
Thank you for speaking up my Pastor. I love and admire your passion for TRUTH as its presented in the Manual for Living, the Bible and sharing it in such a loving way.
As a fellow SDA for many years I appreciate leaders like yourself for speaking up on this matter and how our children’s minds are being filled with filth at school and in the world. However, it saddens me that you and other elders in the SDA Church are not speaking up about the infiltration of the LGBTQ+ in our church. It’s easy to speak against the things of the world. Let’s get our Church back on track.
Too late to address
@@eah-ptministries3angelsmed205 I hope not, but I know it is as it written.
@@eah-ptministries3angelsmed205who said it's too late to address? Can you do half the work this pastor has done?
@@nancyoni1234. Too little, too late. About this should've been spoken 20 or 40 years ago when the gay movement was small. Now they gained enourmous power, and they are unstoppable at spreading they'r moral misery. And this is just a soothing feather at they'r arm pit. Any questions?
Mark Finley is playing his part. He is preaching to the church and the outside world. If the SDA church chooses to ignore him, don't blame him.
This long overdue. What will GC do about SDA Kinship? The universities? The hospitals and churches ?
Excellent presentation !
Your explanation was presented in a very loving way for those struggling with this issue.
I was not aware of the Bible scriptures that deal with this.
Thank You
Great sermon! If only the SDA colleges and hospitals would follow this teaching.
arent they following this teachings? scary
God bless you Ps. Mark Finley for you humility, love, and for sharing God's Word truthfully in undiluted ways with so much grace. God is love and no form of any sin will enter into His kingdom. 🙏

Thank you God bless you as well 🙏
There are still some men and women in the SDA church that are standing for Bible teaching dispite the wind of change to a more safe way with the world. It is easier to stand with the world than to stand now in the minority, but we ought to fear God not the world.
Don't wait for the church to take a stance on anything though, keep your faith in God and follow his ways always even when it is not popular with the world as we look forward to his second coming.
🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
00:33 🙏 Out of concern for society, its impact on the church, and the Next Generation, the speaker addresses LGBTQ+ issues from a biblical perspective.
02:43 📚 There's concern over the promotion of LGBTQ+ content in schools through books and media, potentially influencing children's values and mental health.
08:12 📺 The LGBTQ+ community aims to influence mainstream culture through media representation and normalization of their lifestyle.
11:28 ❤️ Christians are called to love and accept all individuals, but not necessarily affirm lifestyles contrary to biblical teachings.
18:44 💑 God's plan for human sexuality is the union of male and female in marriage, revealing His image and promoting procreation.
24:05 🌈 The Bible highlights deviation from God's plan, including homosexuality, while promoting faithfulness in marriage.
26:47 📜 Leviticus contains moral and ethical standards, including prohibition of same-sex relations, supporting biblical principles beyond ceremonial laws.
29:09 📜 The biblical passages in Leviticus condemn male homosexual activity without exceptions.
30:58 🧬 Researchers find no evidence for a "gay gene," suggesting homosexuality may result from a combination of genetic, environmental, and social factors.
36:20 💡 The power of Christ's grace can transform and overcome any human tendencies, including those related to sexuality.
46:36 📖 The Seventh-day Adventist Church affirms its biblical position on marriage as a lifelong union between man and woman, and it does not condone any form of sexual activity outside of marriage.
52:33 ❤️ Having an LGBTQ+ orientation does not justify acting upon it; God's grace enables individuals to choose righteousness over sinful actions.
Thanks for watching and for your effort in putting this comment. May God bless you.
God will order his angels to protect you wherever you go praise God praying for everyone everyday God bless you all
Thank you for your prayers.
I was raised in the Seventh-Day Adventist Church by my earthly hero, my mom. I am now 56 and remain an Adventist. I know, and believe in the Word of God, in what God says about All of the sins that He finds abhorrent. I love Pastor Finley and appreciates him preaching God’s Biblical Truths. It sure would be refreshing however, if he, as well as other pastors would speak to the abhorrent attitudes from people whom say they are Christians. There is a rise in this country of Christian Nationalism, and there are many on the Evangelical right that are saying there should no longer be a separation between church and state. As a country, we went through, and are still going through, many whom are encouraging fascistic policies. These warnings should also be preached, because those pushing this dangerous ideology are also doing it with an agenda to control every man, woman,and child in the image they want us to espouse. Where have the all the pastors been in denouncing the last president for his blasphemy. If my SDA pastors feel the Lord wants them to preach on the agendas set up by the LGBTQ+ community, then I ask them to also preach on the real dangers of many trying to turn our nation into a neo-fascistic one led by people who are attracted to authoritarianism. God bless Pastor Finley and each of you who have written amazing comments regarding this important sermon on such a hot-topic issue.
Thank you, Pastor Mark Finley.

Please read Romans Chapter 1. It doesn't seem too complicated to me. Our society started down this anti-Christian path beginning in the Sixties with the Sexual Revolution, Feminism, abortion, Playboy, Hollywood, removing prayer & Bible from the schools, etc. etc. The rejection of God and morality in our culture will always lead to sin and moral debauchery. Proverbs 14: 34

"There is no sin, that God's grace can not deliver us from".. AMEN!
Amen. Thanks for watching. May God bless you.
@@xHidden1x Jesus Said :
"All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come."
Why is it so?
Because when anyone grieves the Holy Spirit that convicts for his or her sins they lose the power to confess their sins. and we all know that if any sin is not confessed under the great sacrificial blood of Jesus Christ it will remain in the heavenly books as unforgiven.
Wanted to share as I heard from Ps Randy Skeete. Such a beautiful understanding about the "unforgiving sin" I just paraphrase it. Where sin abounds grace of God much more abounds. .. His mercies endures forever.
I fully believe your message and believe we should learn all the text you shared and the SDA beliefs you brought to our attention. Where can we get a copy of that? Or an you send me a copy of it. Thank you and pray for me to have God’s love written in my heart and his Law guiding me moment by moment
