Greetings! We are so glad you have come to check out our site. If you are GLBT and have been told that God doesn't love you, that He hates you, that you are an abomination, then you are in the right place because we want to tell you the truth - God's love is just as much for you as it is for every other person. No one is excluded from His far-reaching love.
The truth is that not one of us is acceptable to God in our own right, by our own merit. There is not one action we can take that will cause us to rise above ourselves and become worthy of the sacrifice of God's Son for our sins. We are told that even our righteousness, the little bit we have, all we can muster in our own strength, is filthy rags to Him, unacceptable. [Psalm 14:3, Psalm 53:3, Isaiah 64:6, Isaiah 9:17, Jeremiah 8:6, Romans 3:10-12]
Wow! That's a real downer! But, you see, there's more to it than that. God very purposefully chose to put us all in the same boat, to cause us all to be in the same condition - lost. We are all lost. Every man, every woman, every child. We are part of the human race and therefore partake of the human condition. The New Testament puts it like this: "He concluded us all under sin." [Galatians 3:22]
Don't think that because you are GLBT that you are somehow not like the others in terms of your standing before God. We all fall short. "For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God." [Romans 3:23]
So everything the Bible has to say about God's deliverance, His salvation, is just as much for us as it is for everyone else. No matter what anyone has told you or made you feel, God loves you. It's as much a fact for you as it is for anyone else. Embrace that thought. Talk to God about it. Be frank. Get real. Don't think God cares one bit about how well you put words together. Just talk to Him. Ask Him what He thinks. Forget what you've been told. Reach out to Him. He promises if we draw near to Him that He will draw near to us. We have a section on our site that addresses new and hurting Christians, those who have been raised in the church and then thrown away because they were GLBT. This section is called Getting Started. Additionally, for those who want to dig into the Word of God on any topic we have a section called Particulars . Come check us out. If we can be of assistance, please feel free to contact us.
