Desmond Tutu's God Seems to be a 'Different Type' of God
Christian Post ^ | 8-6-13 | Janet Parshall

Posted on 08/06/2013 8:27:53 PM PDT by ReformationFan

No sincere follower of Jesus would ever wish hatred, violence or discrimination against anyone. But behaving in a way that honors God is not the same as declaring that God must somehow changed His mind on sin. Tutu is an ardent supporter of gay rights and said that he "would refuse to go to a homophobic heaven." "No," he said, "I would say sorry – I mean, I would much rather go to the other place. I would not worship a God who is homophobic and that is how deeply I feel about this." The former Archbishop may have been heroic on his work to end racism in Africa, but his recent statements on homosexuality show an utter lack of understand of what Scripture says on the subject of sin and sexuality. The Bible is not ambiguous on how marriage is to be defined– one man and one woman. There is no confusion on who designed sexual expression and where that mystical act is to be enjoyed and confined – within marriage. No pre-marital sex, no extra-marital sex and no same-sex expression. God makes this issue very clear because He loves us - and has our welfare at heart. Unfortunately, Desmond Tutu's remarks were political not biblical. They were also very damaging because they fail to acknowledge the seriousness of sin. They likewise fail to affirm the completed work of the Cross. All of us are great sinners in need of a great Savior. His love is meaningless without His law – and that does not make God homophobic. It makes Him holy.

In Dante’s The Divine Comedy, the last ring of purgatory before he steps into Heaven is populated with people who have same sex attraction. Hmm.

How could a man named Tutu be homophobic?

Isa 56:4-5
4 For this is what the Lord says:
"To the eunuchs who keep my Sabbaths,
who choose what pleases me
and hold fast to my covenant — 
5 to them I will give within my temple and its walls
a memorial and a name
better than sons and daughters;
I will give them an everlasting name
that will not be cut off.
NIV
What does Mr. Tutu think is pleasing to his Creator?

I hope God is taking note of Rev. Tutu’s opinion, and making appropriate adjustments.

Gay rights as in denying the right of freedom and apostasy from perversion.

Yes, his god is the god of this world.

Tutu’s words are blasphemy.

He mocks God by suggesting God is afraid of queers. He ignores the clear words in the Bible condemning homosexuality.

Tutu advocates for Satan - he has made his choice.
