Time for a DNA test.
Ah, homos... They are simply tools.
A tool of the left to criminalize Christianity,
and used by Christ as His “winnowing fork”, separating the wheat from the chaff.
his 15-year-old son ...responded with an even more direct word to his father: “Dad, I’m gay.”
______________________________________
Oh yes, in Mexico 15 year old girls celebrate becoming a little woman..
in America 15 year old boys tell their Dad’s that they are homosexual..
Its all relative...
Yeah, right! He had no clue his son was gay, just announced his change of heart and presto, out of the closet!
Meanwhile, the Methodists edge nearer to an outright denominational split over this issue and progressive Methodists’ disruptive radicalism, born of their inability to change the church’s teaching on it.
I don't have to judge homosexuality. God has already judged it to be a sin.
We also know that the law is made not for the righteous but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sinful, the unholy and irreligious, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers, for the sexually immoral, for those practicing homosexuality, for slave traders and liars and perjurers—and for whatever else is contrary to the sound doctrine that conforms to the gospel concerning the glory of the blessed God, which he entrusted to me.
The words of Paul to Timothy. I will trust Paul over Cortez.
But outside of repentance, turning from his sin, and acceptance of Jesus Christ as Savior, Mr. Cortez's son has NO hope . . . just like me. Unfortunately, what the latter part of chapter 1 of Romans says is that homosexuality is a sign of a person's rejection of God. Mr. Cortez changing his mind makes not one nit of a difference to anything, except maybe his on relationship to God.
I’m gonna hazard a guess here that this “pastor” was not ruminating on the beach without a cause that put the thought in his mind. In this case, the cause was his own child where the father had suspicions and indications that he could not face. This is simple human rationalization and it’s been the First Way of humans over the entire span of time. Not likely to change, either...
“Ah, homos... They are simply tools.

Well said and right on point. Worth repeating.
Go get ‘em Al.
The sad thing is pastors who flip their Biblical positions because of their own children. If they hold fast to the Biblical teaching they should step down.
I am not SB....So maybe someone who is can answer a question... Can the Association remove this congregation and/or pastor?
I’m Southern Baptist and every church is autonomous. I’ll have to check on the Association Bylaws.
If the Convention goes along to get along. . .I’m leaving the denomination.
So if the son had said “dad I’m an adulter” he would have cried and changed his mind on that?
Or “dad I am a pedophile”
What a weak man, who so easily turns his back on God’s Word.
Not as long as you're living under my roof your not....
“What a weak man, who so easily turns his back on God’s Word...”
... and takes his congregation with him.
