Church Mounts Billboard Atop Gay Bar Telling LGBT Community 'God Takes Pride in You'
Christian Post ^ | 7/6/18 | Leonardo Blair

A Disciples of Christ Church in San Diego that describes itself as "radically inclusive" has purchased a billboard atop a gay bar with a message to the LGBT community, declaring, "God takes pride in you, so do we!"

The Mission Gathering Christian Church first promoted its billboard endorsing gay pride on Twitter last month as something that the Bible would also treat as that which is "right and good."

"If you're looking for a sign... This is it. Our message of PRIDE coming in July. Check us out then join us to 'do what is right and good...' Deuteronomy 6:18," the church tweeted.

"And thou shalt do that which is right and good in the sight of the Lord: that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest go in and possess the good land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers," the full text of the Scripture in Deuteronomy says.

The word “Church” is misused an awful lot!

What confuses homosexuals, atheists’ et. al. Christians can love them and disagree with the way they live their lives without judging them. They just can’t get their minds around that.

Democrats, who hate God, want to create a “Church” that makes their own god in their own image.

I thought it was right after “Blessed are they that hate Me so much that they ignore My warnings against these abominations”? No?

Go ahead. Stand in opposition to God. The same God that obliterated Sodom and Gomorrah. See where you stand when you are before Him, whether or not Christ is at your side.
