You already have Freedom of religion. Freedom from religion is not embedded in the law. You are free to attack, but the other side can not defend itself. You have your lunatics on both sides, but atheïsts never started a holy war and will never do so in the future.
What about Stalin? Hitler? They were atheist. I think their comment is talking about the unfairness of a law that is literally prosecuting a man for his religious belief in his country, all he did was talk about his experience of conversion and they’re taking him to court for that? The man from the videos is not from the US.
The irony of this is Pro-LGBT will say that LGBT people just want to be happy and live the life they want but when someone else speaks about leaving the LGBT to live the life they want its wrong? What happened to letting people live the life they want and letting them speak about their life experience? If one side can do it then both sides can, otherwise its a double standard.
What they mean by be happy is take over the world Indoctrinate your kids Where heterosexuality is going to be gone All will be required to be a part of the lgbtqa+ or be jailed That's what they mean by be happy They won't be until they rid the world of the idea of heterosexuality And religion of any kind Thats what they mean when they say That they just want to be happy and live their lives

Just randomly found this video and listened like 3 times. Matthew, you're destined for greatness this is why you were delivered from the shackles of sexual immorality. July 24th passed and I am eager to hear how the court hearing went. You have a position on my prayer item list. That said, who else finds it ridiculous that one category from the list that 1corinthians 6:9 mentions, feels more marginalized. Isn't obviously that this is supposed to help us work out our salvation? We all have time to turn away from all wickedness so that we can inherit the Kingdom of God. May God be Matthew's everlasting defense in Jesus' Name. Amen.

If it was my religious view that women should be put in chains and i preached that publically and tried to get attention for those ideas, would you have a problem with that? If i publically preached about how people should and best could leave christianity specifically, would you have a problem with that?
@@JohnSmith-ko4ob The latter is just an annoyance, the former is advocation for a human right violation. You realise he is not going to prison for "sharing his journes to jesus", right? He openly held events to convert gay people out of being gay. The times where we thought being gay was an illness are long over. Just like you cannot chose what to believe, you cannot chose your sexual orientation. What he does it thus literally on the same level of telling black people to paint over their skin. That's more than a minor annoyance or a use of their right to free speach. It's hate speech. Homophobia. And sure, since he kept doing it, if he goes to prison for it, there is nothing wrong with that. On that side note, i dont think i even count as fully vaccinated anymore. I didnt get a single booster so far. Not because i think it's bad or anything, but simply because im lazy and dont often visit public places for my job or privately. Vaccinations work. The scientific consensus is clear on that, but im always happy to see all these experts who are smarter than the people who dedicate their entire life to researching a topic. Ie scientifically illiterate conspiracy theorists. I'd love you to encounter a polio or smallpox disease without vaccination. And see how well your immune system fares then.. oh wait.. you cant. We eradicated these diseases from earth, using vaccines. The reason you cannot encounter these deadly diseases (among others) anymore, which killed more people than we ever managed with wars, is science. The same science you dont know enough about to now look down upon. The same science that put a mobile supercomputer in your pocket and let you spread your death cult over the globe faster than ever.
And it is happening here in America if you pay attention. Satan is getting a larger foothold in our country and too many people are not paying attention. We Christians had better wake up before its too late. Pray for our nation.

SO MUCH ABOUT CHRISTIANS AS PERSECUTED AND AS PERSECUTORS: -Number of Christians who died in persecution in Ancient Rome: about 3,000-3,500 people -Execution of Germanic Saxons by Charlemagne in one day: over 4000 people -Number of people who died in the Christianization of Europe: several 10,000 people -Number of dead in the Crusades (Christians vs. Islam): approx. one million people -Number of dead in 30-year war (Catholics vs. Protestants): approx. 12 million people -Number of dead in the Christian conquest of Latin America: approx. 50 million people
What's absurd is that Christians want to preach "protect the children" , yet turn a blind eye to the child abuse that conversion therapy is. No one has a problem that man chooses his faith over his sexuality. The problem lies with his promotion of child abuse. It's absurd how Christians only want to protect the children when it benefits them. Doesn't sound very "Christian" to me, or does it🤔

I left the scene because it almost felt like a group-think cult. I had confusion from childhood sexual abuse at a young age. I’m glad I got healing and found my identity in Jesus. Love with Purity was what I was always seeking. It should be ok to come out of a lifestyle that you feel is detrimental to your soul.
@ansonhoward559 Sexual abuse messes everyone up sexually then drugs and alcohol. I hope you are fully healed. Pedofiles have ruined many lives. LGBT wrote the relationships content for schools in UK. Our children have had 3 years of been taught things that they shouldn't know at their age. It is recruiting and it's evil. There's a film out called Sound of Freedom. It's about sex trafficking kids and women. Some people don't want people to know what happens. There's even talk of taking children's blood to try to improve their blood. I hope you will be able to look into this film. Stay strong in Jesus 💖💪👍💜
@@Mkhan1.1.996 Sexual abuse can make people think they are gay or bisexual. When a bisexual man gets married to a woman he may see other men or women as attractive but stays faithful in his relationship with his wife. His past doesn't cause problems. He is now living a heterosexual lifestyle ❤️
@@Mkhan1.1.996 Trauma of sexual abuse needs healing somehow. I think the hardest part is to forgive the people who messed one up. It requires God's help and could take a long time. Unforgiveness injures peoples souls. Injured people hurt other people. One can become bitter or a narcissist or have rage. It's all because there is an injured soul inside that needs healing and to forgive the abuser. An abused childs life is extremely difficult they would have a lot of depression. Many die young through drugs or suicide or are in prison for violence or drug dealing or for doing to children what was done to them. There are many that are married, have children and are happy. The survivors that learn about God usually have the better lives. 👍💜💪
What a beautiful testimony. I love that Matthew said that Jesus is worthy. Yes, he is. He calls all of us out of sin. I hope you win your case. Sending a prayer your way.

@@waqaskhakid6158I love how Muslims respect Jesus but He was more than a messenger. He paid the price for our sins on the cross, through Him we have forgiveness and life eternal. We need to heed the message of this messenger.🙏
@@Archie-23so Jesus temporarily died on the cross and our sins were forgiven because of that? What a weird tale.
@@ohuntermc9321 Yes I can see it can seem weird. Throughout the Bible the death of Jesus is foretold, the Lamb who takes away the sins of the world. In Christ we are forgiven and in Him we have eternal life.
God Bless you for your testimony and faith! Michigan just passed a hate law so they can prosecute anyone speaking against the LGBTQ lifestyle. I’m praying for every person to be delivered from this spiritual stronghold🙏
I am from Michigan and no idea about this new law. Thanks for the heads up.
There is no LGBTQ lifestyle. It's just the way that some people are.
but ur ok with the homophobic lifestyle?
This is so inspiring!!! I pray now for this young man who had enough faith to allow God to deliver him from homosexuality. Coming OUT of that lifestyle is very rare, but not impossible. I really hope and pray God prospers him and takes care of him and his family.....and protects him.
It is impossible, its proven that you're sexual preference is set from birth. This guy couldve been confused or hes lying to himself lol. Also, If God loved everyone just the way they were, why would he change them.
@@Azazel0183 It's very common, actually. Jesus came to free us from the punishment of sin ("the wages of sin is death"), and free us from the power of sin, enabling us to live holy lives and live forever with him ("but the gift of God is eternal life"). This good news is for everyone, no matter what sin they struggle with!
@@scientificreactions7938 So if you have a sexual thought, you do know that is adultery, right? The punishment is death.
@@scientificreactions7938 And just because your christian, it doesnt mean you can be cured from gay. Can you be cured from adultery?

God bless this man! Praying for him and his safety. Most of all, I pray that he, the church of Malta, and all the churches of Europe never lose their true faith in God-that they will be encouraged somehow. 🙏🏻❤🇲🇹
Amazing testimony, especially near the end when he says that, regardless of how the case turns out, he counts it all joy to serve for Christ!
Such a beautiful brother in Christ! I had tears to see the liberation in his voice and the joy he encountered. Blessings to you Matthew 🙏🏽 ☁️
Just randomly found this video and listened like 3 times. Matthew, you're destined for greatness this is why you were delivered from the shackles of sexual immorality. July 24th passed and I am eager to hear how the court hearing went. You have a position on my prayer item list.
That said, who else finds it ridiculous that one category from the list that 1corinthians 6:9 mentions, feels more marginalized. Isn't obviously that this is supposed to help us work out our salvation? We all have time to turn away from all wickedness so that we can inherit the Kingdom of God.
May God be Matthew's everlasting defense in Jesus' Name. Amen.
Amen

I am praying for brother Matthew! Attacks on Christians are increasing world wide. God is on his side and righteousness prevails!
If it was my religious view that women should be put in chains and i preached that publically and tried to get attention for those ideas, would you have a problem with that?
If i publically preached about how people should and best could leave christianity specifically, would you have a problem with that?
Amen!!! 🙏🏽
@@JohnSmith-ko4ob The latter is just an annoyance, the former is advocation for a human right violation. You realise he is not going to prison for "sharing his journes to jesus", right? He openly held events to convert gay people out of being gay. The times where we thought being gay was an illness are long over. Just like you cannot chose what to believe, you cannot chose your sexual orientation. What he does it thus literally on the same level of telling black people to paint over their skin. That's more than a minor annoyance or a use of their right to free speach. It's hate speech. Homophobia. And sure, since he kept doing it, if he goes to prison for it, there is nothing wrong with that.
On that side note, i dont think i even count as fully vaccinated anymore. I didnt get a single booster so far. Not because i think it's bad or anything, but simply because im lazy and dont often visit public places for my job or privately. Vaccinations work. The scientific consensus is clear on that, but im always happy to see all these experts who are smarter than the people who dedicate their entire life to researching a topic. Ie scientifically illiterate conspiracy theorists. I'd love you to encounter a polio or smallpox disease without vaccination. And see how well your immune system fares then.. oh wait.. you cant. We eradicated these diseases from earth, using vaccines. The reason you cannot encounter these deadly diseases (among others) anymore, which killed more people than we ever managed with wars, is science. The same science you dont know enough about to now look down upon. The same science that put a mobile supercomputer in your pocket and let you spread your death cult over the globe faster than ever.
@Yamyatos
I may not agree with what you say, but you have a right to say it; and I do not believe in harming someone because they disagree with me.
Thank you Sir for making a stand for Jesus. I am very sad that Malta has taken this route. Go well brother ✝️✝️✝️🙏🙏🙏❤️
And it is happening here in America if you pay attention. Satan is getting a larger foothold in our country and too many people are not paying attention. We Christians had better wake up before its too late. Pray for our nation.

proud of lies? Ex gays do not exist
It's absurd that we need to accept everyone's 'lifestyle' and 'story' UNLESS they are a Christian. Yet they say that Christians are intolerant ???
SO MUCH ABOUT CHRISTIANS AS PERSECUTED AND AS PERSECUTORS:
-Number of Christians who died in persecution in Ancient Rome: about 3,000-3,500 people
-Execution of Germanic Saxons by Charlemagne in one day: over 4000 people
-Number of people who died in the Christianization of Europe: several 10,000 people
-Number of dead in the Crusades (Christians vs. Islam): approx. one million people
-Number of dead in 30-year war (Catholics vs. Protestants): approx. 12 million people
-Number of dead in the Christian conquest of Latin America: approx. 50 million people
Say that again!
What's absurd is that Christians want to preach "protect the children" , yet turn a blind eye to the child abuse that conversion therapy is. No one has a problem that man chooses his faith over his sexuality. The problem lies with his promotion of child abuse. It's absurd how Christians only want to protect the children when it benefits them. Doesn't sound very "Christian" to me, or does it🤔
Guys,
YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified/Pierced for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF”

He - "Behold the Breath"
Vav - "Behold The NAIL"

I left the scene because it almost felt like a group-think cult. I had confusion from childhood sexual abuse at a young age. I’m glad I got healing and found my identity in Jesus. Love with Purity was what I was always seeking. It should be ok to come out of a lifestyle that you feel is detrimental to your soul.
@ansonhoward559 Sexual abuse messes everyone up sexually then drugs and alcohol. I hope you are fully healed. Pedofiles have ruined many lives. LGBT wrote the relationships content for schools in UK. Our children have had 3 years of been taught things that they shouldn't know at their age. It is recruiting and it's evil. There's a film out called Sound of Freedom. It's about sex trafficking kids and women. Some people don't want people to know what happens. There's even talk of taking children's blood to try to improve their blood. I hope you will be able to look into this film. Stay strong in Jesus 💖💪👍💜
can you csa travma serviver being gay
Can recovery is possible csa travma serviver being gay
@@Mkhan1.1.996 Sexual abuse can make people think they are gay or bisexual. When a bisexual man gets married to a woman he may see other men or women as attractive but stays faithful in his relationship with his wife. His past doesn't cause problems. He is now living a heterosexual lifestyle ❤️
@@Mkhan1.1.996 Trauma of sexual abuse needs healing somehow. I think the hardest part is to forgive the people who messed one up. It requires God's help and could take a long time. Unforgiveness injures peoples souls. Injured people hurt other people. One can become bitter or a narcissist or have rage. It's all because there is an injured soul inside that needs healing and to forgive the abuser. An abused childs life is extremely difficult they would have a lot of depression. Many die young through drugs or suicide or are in prison for violence or drug dealing or for doing to children what was done to them. There are many that are married, have children and are happy. The survivors that learn about God usually have the better lives. 👍💜💪
My prayer is with this gentleman, may the Lord be with him through this ordeal.
Do not be afraid of them, God is with you.
May the Lord bless you in your journey Mathew. Congratulations for being strong amidst various pressures!
What a beautiful testimony. I love that Matthew said that Jesus is worthy. Yes, he is. He calls all of us out of sin. I hope you win your case. Sending a prayer your way.
Thank you for reminding me to remember that the Holy Writ tells us we're saved FROM sin--and not IN sin.
Inspirational testimony when someone gets the victory over the enemy. God bless you brother.
