" 'Pride' Is Even More of a Sin Than 'Gay'!! "

Seems that many have stopped calling them "Gay Pride" Parades...it's just "PRIDE Parades" now.  

Why is this?? Could it be that the LGBTQs realize that the word "Gay" is an immediate turnoff to most people, whereas "Pride" is far more benign, and is often seen as a virtue by many?? (Hey, who's not proud of SOMETHING, right??)  I don't know.  Maybe LGBTQs are employing slick marketing tactics now to try to sell us on the "normalcy" of their sin.  If so, I have to admit...dropping the word "Gay" is a pretty clever move.

However, what they don't realize is that, Biblically speaking, PRIDE is even more of a sin that being GAY is!!

There are FAR more references in Scripture to God hating pride and resisting proud people, far more examples of pride UNDOING people in God's Word, far more of warnings against pride than there are references to God being against the sin of Homosexuality. (He IS against it, mind you...it's just that PRIDE is far more common and so Scripture gives it more REBUKES.)  Unaware, however, the Gays continue to march, choosing now to hide the LESSER sin (the LGBTQ lifestyle) but still glorying in the GREATER one (Pride.)  They are the only ones who DO glory in their sin this way, by the way...there are no "pride parades" for any OTHER sin but THIS sin.  Sad.  When have you seen an ADULTERY Pride Parade?? A THIEVES Pride Parade?? MURDERERS?? (Well, there was "Murderers Row" when Lou Gehrig was "PRIDE of the Yankees," Lol!!  But, I digress.)

Because you see, on the other hand, there are STRAIGHT folks who ALSO need to learn that being proud is even more of a sin than being GAY  is.

A local Rabbi is leading a protest against our local minor league baseball team because they're having "Pride Night" this Saturday night.  If anyone should be protesting, it is CHRISTIANS because "Pride Night" (so I hear) is now replacing what used to be "CHRISTIAN Night" at this stadium!!  But THIS Christian, for one, will NOT be joining the Rabbi's protest because HE (the Rabbi) comes across as VERY proud and arrogant. And you can't oppose Pride with Pride, we are called to "speak the truth in love" as Christians and this man's appeal to join his protest was proud to its core. 

Truth WITHOUT love.

We will never be able to persuade gay folks that there's a better way if we hypocritically have THEIR attitude.  Oh, I know that SOME gays will condemn you even if you're as humble as can be when you tell them their lifestyle is sinful, but those who are persuadable MAY respond if we show that we care enough to not be arrogant!!  The old saying goes that "people don't care how much you know until they know how much you care"...but let's remember, these people may be hellbound for the sins of "Gay" AND "Pride."  But they're still PEOPLE.
