Homosexuality

The following statment is the official statement adopted in 2004 by the executive board of directors:

Whereas one of the by-products of the increasing mood of permissiveness in our society is a growing awareness of a community not previously recognized, namely, the practicing homosexuals in our midst, and

Whether the result of moral looseness, social instability or physiological change, the number of homosexuals seems to be increasing.

The Bible speaks out strongly in condemnation of sin and unrighteousness in all forms. The Scriptures explicitly pronounced judgement on sexual deviance. Old Testament law condemns a man lying with a man as a woman. It also condemns a woman lying with a woman as a man. The first chapter of Romans refers to the guilt of mankind expressed in shameful worship, perverted passions and corrupted minds.

Nevertheless, we must remember that all men regardless of their offenses need God's love as manifest in Jesus Christ. All too often we have both overtly and covertly rejected the person of the sexual deviant. All people, regardless of their sexual orientation are welcome to attend worship services. Church membership will be denied if you are currently practicing any sexual deviant behaviors outside of marriage. We define marriage as being a hold union between one man and one woman.

Therefore, we resolve as Word for the World Family Church

1) to stand firm in the belief that the Holy Scriptures condemn practicing homosexuality and give no basis for approving this as an acceptable lifestyle, and
2) to extend the healing ministry of the entire Christian community to individuals who seek forgiveness and deliverance from the sin of homosexuality.
