May I suggest for those of you that want to use the Bible as a weapon; instead of the guide to a personal relationship with God & our Savior; and discover (and understand what it is saying) the verse that immediately follows John 3:16. "For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him." John 3:17 NIV
If God did NOT send His Son to condemn....then what right or authority does ANY mere mortal have to do so? Think & pray about that please!
Perfect example of ho being a couple stabilizes and vastly enriches a person's life. You would think religious people would approve of gay marriage as introducing an orderly, exemplary life option to the gay community.
I find it interesting that people can say they are a Christian, but yet bash someone for their personal life, when the last time I checked Hyprocrocy, and being prejudice were not christian values. The issue shouldn't be based on their personal life, but rather on their relationship with christ, and the fact that they are putting the word of god across. Regardless of them being gay, you can't deny that they have amazing talent!
I met these guys at Atlanta Pride 2007, and I must say that they were some of the nicest people Ive ever met. I am a Christian and I could really care less about their sexual preference. That's who they are and I find nothing wrong with it. Someones sexual preference does not define who they are as a person, and what kind of relationship they have with god.
It's immoral that so many people are forced to choose between staying in the closet or leaving church. I'm glad these two have found a healthy integration of who they are - and whose they are!
Jason and De Marco, You are amazing! You're the models we were waiting from a gay couple. so beautiful, so sweet, so good christian relatioonship we wqnt to see between couples. God has blessed you because you're dedicated your lives to praise Him. I love to see what you do, how you live, guys!
I just want to say that I am gay and have a relationship with God. Nothing wrong with that!! That being said, these 2 guys are AMAZING! I just ran across them tonight and fell over. Sooooo Talented. I have goosebumps. WOW
i first saw them at a gay church in ft laud ...singing all the christmas songs ...if you think they are cool here you need to see them in person....jason
Buddha & Jesus didn't condemned homosexuality. The oldest Buddhist Theravada scripture precept on sex includes no rape, no sex with children, no adultery. Sex between single lay adults avoiding excessive promiscuity is within the good karma lifestyle. If a partner agrees for another person to be included in the relationship that is not adultery. The dueling dualists of religion have the world in flames. Jason & DeMarco represent loving-kindness & are good gay role models.
To any1hearme: Are you without sin? I didn't think so. Stop throwing stones and look to your OWN morality before judging others. You holy-than-thous are really out of control.

These two performers are openly gay and clearly in a sexual relationship (I actually watched the movie and at the very end they talk about giving each other "cock rings" if they get married and the one said to the other "no really you have a big penis"). So yes, these two are engaging in homosexual pre-marital sexual relations before marriage, and possibly with no intention to marry. All of a sudden becoming gay means you don't accept other parts of God's word as authoritative?
any1hearme... For those not as familiar with Biblical verse as you, please enlighten us with EXACT verses where our Bible explicitely uses the term "pre-marital sex" and as you wrote, "sexual immorality"? Also, point of clarification You wrote "All of sudden becoming gay..." How does one accomplish this feat of "all of a sudden becoming gay"? Does one "all of a sudden become straight"? And if so, how?
Well, apparently it's ok to skip parts of God's word. After all, you clearly skipped the "judge not lest ye be judged" part. Matthew 7:1, you might want to reread that book before you start judging others on their life or their relationship with God. That's between Him and them, not you.
...which was a reply to a post that is apparently no longer there. My apologies. But the point stands, for anyone who would choose to bash these two and their singing on the basis of their sexual orientation.

Any gay believer who truly believes that homosexuality is not a sin please please answer this question: What do you then consider sexual immorality according to the bible? Do you also not accept pre-marital sex as a form of sexual immorality? I have not once met a gay couple (believer or not) who has decided to remain abstinent before marriage (which until recently was not allowed). Even if being gay is not a sin how do you justify engaging in pre-marital sexual acts with your partner
This pair is clearly talented enough to be successful regardless of their spirituality or sexuality. Perhaps, as Christ suggested, we should let the seed grow & let the Lord sort it out.
Again, the story is about disregard for human decency, hospitality, and how out-of-control society becomes when God's covenant is not the center. And that problem includes hetero- as well as homosexuals.

The question still stands, What does God say through the Prophet Moses in Lev.18. He calls this act of homosexuality an abomination. and He commanded that it shouldn't be done. The issue with Lot willing to give up his girls was a clue of how he adopted their S.G life style of all kinds.He was just as wrong.My whole point in this is, Man always wanted to live his life apart from God since the beginning. Like Satan, because of his pride, rebelled against the LORD. Look where it got him.
Uh, oh Here we go again! Caution elite If we go word for word from our Bible then we accept: Deutoronomy 22:13-21 If it is discovered that the bride is not a virgin she is to be executed by stoning! Or Leviticus 18:19 forbids a man to have sexual relations during a wife's period. If found both are to be executed! Some verses were specific to the times and cultures. Always keep in mind that our Bible is the story of God's love for the world and the people of the world INCLUDING GAYS.

I wonder , did you read the passages in the N.T that I gave u on this topic? In Rom.2:26 where God calls it "vile affection"and in vs27 He says that the man and woman gave up the natural for the unnatural men w/ men and woman w/ woman and in vs28 God gave them over to a "reprobate mind" Please read the rest of the same chapter from 29-32 this is what we have today in our society.the same mind set. and still God word hasn't changed. Its wrong. Like all Sin its wrong. PERIOD! PEACE1
Then take a look at Judges 19, where the parallel to S & G reads nearly the same- except that the men take the woman offered to them, use her all night long, leave her for dead on the doorstep, and when her master finds her, he cuts her (probably still alive) into twelve pieces and sends them to the tribes of Israel. This after he was the one who offered her for the crowds' use!
Heterosexual or homosexual, this is about rape! Is it not just as much an abomination that Lot offers his virgin daughters without their will to be used by the crowd? This whole passage is a mess! And it illustrates how messy things were outside the covenant community (Israel-to-be) which revolved around Abraham and Issac.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Its odvious that these guys have a God given talent but It so sad that there Theology is totally wrong. its not about us being accepting of others but its about Gods HOLINESS. Nowhere in Gods word will you find that he accepts the life style of homosexuality. God does love the sinner but not the sin. Thats why Christ died. My prayer is that people truly become a student of Gods word and understand HIS characteristics. This sin isn't any worst than lying. God calls it an abomination. He said it.
Yea, sure he can and did.but that doesn't change what God has said. We ned to know what God has said and not what we want it to say to fit our own life style or selfish wants and needs. The bottom line is that we will have to stand before Him one day. He will have the final word.
Be careful e.f.combat Our Jewish prophets were completely silent about homosexuality and Jesus said NOTHING about same-sex behaviour. Over the centuries people have misused our Bible to justify and defend their own prejudices: crusades, inquisitons, slavery, aparthied, segregation, support of Hitler. We value scripture but we must be VERY CAREFUL to give PRAYERFUL ATTENTION to what our Bible says and DOESNT say about homosexuality. Our Bible is a Book about God Not a book about human sexuality.
Have you read song of Solomon? its all about sexuality, but between a man and a woman only! lets take a look @ a few old test. vs's Leviticus 18:22-20:13 its clear as day. so when did Gods commandment change? His word is clear when it come to sexuality and homosexuality. lets look @ the N.T. Yes Jesus didn't speak concering this act but He sure dealt with the woman who was caught in adultery.The Apostle Paul did in Romans 1:18-32, 1Cor.6:9-11 the word "effeminate"in vs:9 means homosexual. cont.
Also,lets go back to Sodom in Gen.19:1-9 Men young and old wanted to have Sex w/ these men which Lot refers to it being wickedness. They even wanted to rape Lot. The word"KNOW" them was meant to having sex. All you have to do is a simple word study in Hebrew and you'll see.Lot was even willing to give up his virgin girls but instead they wanted the "men" In 1st Timothy1:8-10 the word "Whormongers" means homosexual. You see, God has said that this act is wrong then and NOW! CONT.
Perhaps you should re-read that passage about Sodom and Gomorrah; if we substitute three female visitors instead, would the passage speak against heterosexual acts? No! The point of the Sodom and Gomorrah passage, as affirmed both by Ezekiel and our Lord, is how complete moral decay leads to disregard for hospitality and human decency.
Finally, Revelation 21:8 lets you know where they'll go. and its not heaven. In my humble opinion, God is very clear on this subject and all others that choose to live a life of Sin and disobedience to "His Word"They will have to pay the consequences of Eternal separation from Him in a place not made for us but the devil and his fallen angels. This is why The Lord Jesus Christ died. for yours , mine and the Sin of the whole world. Jesus said in JN.14:6 He is the "Way" no other way to Heaven
I beg you to search this out for yourself. This Sin is no worst to God than any other Sin but God gave the Law to the PROPHET Moses to give to His people and the Apostle Paul spoke about it as well. You were right about one thing, people has misused the Scriptures for their own lust and evil desires, and thats wrong. I also believe that these two guys singing and any other homosexual or heterosexual that mis uses Gods Word for their own agenda is wrong. Paul said that 1 day "Every knee will bow"
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
"and every tongue will confess that Jesus is LORD to the Glory of the Father" Its better to do it now before He bends their knee. If you read the writings of the Apostle Paul, he refers to the fact that if you are "in Christ, you're a new creation, old things have past and now things are new" You can't call your self a true child of God and continue you live the life according to your own rules. At the end of the day, GOD SAID it, I believe it, so that settles it. I'll be praying for you PEACE
