The Bible is true and states in Lev 18:22 That mankind shall not lay with mankind; as with womankind, for it is a abomination. Romans 1 and I Cor 6;9 Nor effiminates shall enter the kingdom of Heaven. God loves you as a human but not as an unrepentant sinner to allow uoy into heaven. Repent of this evil and God will heal you with in Three years. This is spiritual warfare against the enemy of GOD and man. The enemy alays want to counteract God's Law and lead man to destruction(Hell fire. Ask Jesus to save and heal you. You must do this while the blood is running warm in your veins. If you don't when you die and see Jesus Matt 25:41 is what your going to hear. Depart from me ye cursed, Be ye casted into the lake of fire prepared for the devil and his angels. Abandoned all Hope at that point for hell is your new home for all eternity.

A gay person has no control over his/her sexual orientation. Therefore, homosexuality should not be in the same category of a thief or murderer. Now, people against them lose because you can't judge someone over something they have no control over. They are gay if they have sex or not. You do not represent Jesus Christ if you keep judging them. You only represent what prejudice ministers have taught you!

So everything in the Bible is God's word?

what is truly scary is that homosexuals think that God accepts their actions and is even pleased with their actions. He clearly states that He is against all actions that are not holy including lying, stealing, gluttony, backbiting, deceitfulness, hatred, and sex outside of marriage. and one day every knee will bow and every tongue will confess...

Good morning all,

It still baffles me that there are people who still support and/or condone what this man said across the pulpit. If, at the very least, you can not appreciate that many times his words have injured the very people that God sent to Calvary to be restored, then this whole dialogue is meaningless. And, in fact, Bishop Owens will continue to do what he has been doing for several years now and that truly is scary.

God help us all.

More on the 3-year-old child who was killed by his ANTI GAY father. The following article was featured on the tbo.com news website:

TAMPA - Even though the boy would shake and wet himself, his father, Ronnie Paris Jr., would box with the 3-year-old, slapping him in the head until he cried because he didn't want his son to grow up to be ``a sissy,'' the boy's mother testified Monday.... He died six days later with swelling on both sides of his brain.... Even Sheldon Bostic, who was Ronnie Paris Jr.'s Bible- study friend, said he warned the father several times not to play so rough with his son.

According to sptimes.com: "He kept hitting him in the back of the head," she said. "He said that the baby jumped at him."

According to planetout.com

"He was trying to teach him how to fight," the boy's aunt, Shanita Powell, told the court. "He was concerned that the child might be gay."

"He didn't want him to be a sissy," Shelton Bostic, the defendant's Bible-study friend, testified.

Now, gay brothers and sisters, 3-year-old Ronnie Paris is dead. Will you guys respect the memory of that little baby by attending a homophobic church?

Again, gay brothers and sisters, leave Bishop Owens church. Last year, a black man punched and killed his 4-year-old son because he thought the boy behaved like a 'sissy.' It was said that the man attended bible study in his community. Now, did the "word" tell that man to punch his son in the chest and kill him? Now, who do you guys think influence that man to kill his son? People like Bishop Owens!

Why do we even acknowlege this, this is one man's opinion (Bishop Owens) he is not the Creator that's who I listen to and his word says Love every one if you think someone is livivng out the the will of GOD (PRAY FOR THEM) and let God do the rest

I just want to know when is the article about the liers and the adulterers is coming out. I mean we have all this time to debate this sinful lifestyle, why not debate them all. Bishop Owens is one of the nicest, straight pastors I have come across in a long time. You individuals who claim to be Bible believing homosexuals, why don't you read the part about not putting your mouth on God's anointed and doing His Prophets no harm. You better be careful, God will get you. And I think that will be far more hurtful than anything Bishop or anyone else could do to you. What makes you any different from what you are saying Bishop did. You say that he talked about you, hurt your feelings and so on, what do you think all of this nonsense is doing to him. You are a hypercrite
and you need forgiveness also. Can we just get back to the important things. People are dying, and all we have time for is typing comments. There is work to be done, Kingdom work! Pray for Bishop, he isnt perfect either. Yes the words were strong, but hey
someone needed to hear them, just that way. And it probably needed to be that strong for the homosexuals in the congregation, how many times do you need to hear that your lifestyle is not pleasing in the sight of God? Just for the record, Bishop's apology was edited for the viewers. He was not apologizing for his sermon, only for the two words. Lets get that clear. We at GMCHC believe that homosexuality along with numerous other lifestyles is wrong in the sight of God. love you all MT

You are all hypercrites, you judge Bishop Owens for the things he said, but look at the things you are saying about him. Are you any different than him? Who ever said that "faggot or sissy" defined a homosexual? I remember growing up hearing that a man was a sissy if he cried, or if he was scared of the dark. You labeled yourself not Bishop Owens. I have been a member of Calvary since 1992, and Bishop has preached numerous sermons on addiction, and for a while I still did my thing, it was not until he preached one of those hard core sermons that I got delivered. It hurt but it was the truth and now I have been free for 11 years. Anyone who is offended by his sermon, most likely don't want to change. Why even go to a church where you know that they speak against your lifestyle if you want to continue in it. I just want to know who is going to the papers when Bishop preach about the liers and thieves. Will the sermon on adultry make front page? Everyone who speaks hatred about Bishop is not different than what they think he did. If he is so wrong, you being the christian you say you are need to pray for him and realize that just like you, he isn't perfect either. I love you Bishop Owens and keep preaching life changing messages even if we don't like how it makes us feel. The word is like a two edged sword, it cuts, so it hurts. But we are better because of it. You all pulled two words out of a forty-five minute sermon, what credit does the rest of the message get. It opened my eyes as a woman, am I a fan or a follower. Maybe you need to ask yourselves that. You only want the messages that can make you shout,but I want the one that will make me change. Lastly, can we concentrate on the individuals who are still lost to sin and stop wasting time on a subject that will always be debated. Let God deal with Bishop and let God deal with your sinful life. Because you won't receive from a man, maybe if God showed you his views on it then you will know. Its to much going on in this world right now to concentrate on trying to bring Bishop down, someone who has contributed to this area as well. Why we are wasting time typing, someone is on the street overdosing, someone is robbing a store, someone is thinking about suicide. Come on people! There's work to be done!! Love you all, MT

Gay brothers and sisters, IN MY OPINION, I don't think Bishop Owens respects you. You don't call your members a "slut", "drunk" or "faggot." He is using the same type of language haters would use against you in the street. High Scool children use that type of language. From my understanding, you guys represent the MAJORITY of his congregation. You have more power over him. USE IT! His heterosexual members don't really care because they were not disrespected by him. Of course, they will be on his side. One member went so far as to say Jesus would have called someone a "faggot." There are many other churches you could attend, in which the clergy would not disrespect you in front of people. You don't need his apology. He did not want to apologize to you, anyway!

Lets not forget. Since people seem to piont out the color of there skin (Not sure why) but it was not that long ago the bible was used to hold the Black Family down. Whatever people fear they hide behind the bible twisting its true words.

All that matters when it comes down to it is we Christians (A True Christian)Should never allow God's word to be used for spreading hate from the pulpit or anywhere.

I am not comparing African Americans to Gays I am just pointing out the bible is used for evil doings every day.

Have a great weekend All!

Look I am straight Black Man, Why in the hell do we care about what the homos are doing? HUH? Truth be told there have been some good homos in your life at some point. Wheather we like it or not, they are tax paying good and some are even great citizens. Bishop Owens was wrong for his word's yes, accept it GMCHC women. I believe he was pushed into saying what he said by the hunger for a man women at his church. To prove a point I don't believe he meant what he said And I have my own personal reasons for saying that, mine your business. However we can say they are going to hell all we want, but I am sure u have one or two up in your families that u suppose to love, why should we care whom they choose to sleep with? Don't make sense to me. Women you have these dudes doing your HAIR....come on. You break your damm necks getting to Hector. We also listen to their gospel music believe it or not, I work with several gays, yes I am a musician. But they respect me and I do them, some of our best artist and musicaan are gay come on Calvary u are not blind. If you have such a problem with the gays maybe you should leave the church and not them, because you all are judging. They can feel up the church better than we can. huh..yeah I said it. Bishop knows what is up in the church, he got alittle caught up, Bishop apologize to the church and lets move on.

"Homosexuality is wrong because if all of us were homosexuals then that would kill off our species."

That is just the dumbest thing I have ever herd. of course that would never happen. A Str8 man can not or ever be gay. you dont just turn it on and off.

God must sit up there and shake his head. I wonder how many times he said to himself "I Never Said That" Christians are Gods worse enemy.
