Anthony Venn-Brown Gay Pentecostal Preacher pt1

[RevJhow12]

That doesn't matter, if I remember correctly I used the word "gay" because the comment before mine used that word and I was commenting on their comments. Either way God dose not create people to be homosexuals because God hates homosexuality.

[RevJhow12]

This is the most ridiculous thing that I have ever heard! God did not make anyone gay because God clearly states that he hates homosexuality. You have a choice to partake in this SIN and this is exactly what it is, sin. To say that God looks over something like this is crazy because the truth is that he dosent.

1 Corinthians 6:Do not be misled. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men kept for unnatural purposes, nor men who lie with men, 10 nor thieves, nor greedy persons, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit God’s kingdom. 11 And yet that is what some of YOU were. But YOU have been washed clean,

[kebey18]

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

Genesis 1:27

Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. Genesis 2:24

He that is wounded in the stones , or hath his privy member cut off , shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD.

Deuteronomy 23:1

show me anywhere in the bible where it says it is ok to engage in homosexuality

[absoluteresolute]

He needs prayer - he is flaunting God and living in sin. He can argue it till he's blue in the face, but he needs to repent his sin and follow Jesus - gay is sin. Sex outside of marriage between man and woman is SIN.

[MrRedFredSaid]

Lawdy how did this precious gay man ever manage to go undetected in the closet? He's as gay as Christmas. Bless him.

[BibleGeeek]

I can almost guarantee that this guy still speaks in tongues. The primary evidence of being filled with the HOly Spirit is a holy life. If you are violating I Cor 6:9, you make hell your eternal abode. This guy needs to repent and believe the gospel. He needs to place his every morsel at the foot of the cross. 

[LivinginHoliness]

eviticus 20:13 - "If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads." Not only is it written in the old testament  but also in the new testament in romans 1:26-27 that homosexuality is not tolerable by God.Alot of churches and people because this is america and we have freedom to believe and do what we will think because the man has said its okay then its fine with God.But homosuxuality

[EmilieSagae]

@LivinginHoliness

ALSO:

1 Corinthians 11:4-16

"Any woman who prays or prophesies with her head unveiled brings shame upon her head, for it is one and the same thing as if she had had her head shaved."

Mark 12:18-27 states:

If a man dies childless, his widow is ordered by biblical law to have intercourse with each of his brothers in turn until she bears her deceased husband a male heir.

[steffyb528]

@EmilieSagae yeah so? and not just have intercourse but to marry and only if the one she's with dies should she marry the next brother, but what's that got to do with anything?

[hipstermi]

@EmilieSagae

"ALSO:

1 Corinthians 11:4-16"

Yes we all know these biblical quotes.

I am curious why conservatives, Christians, and Republicans seem to "forget" what the Bible says about divorce and affairs. Yet you guys wanted to elect McCain (many affairs, on wife 2) elected Reagan (affair, 2 wives)

Why don't you guys protest say Rush Limbaugh the way you do gays?

Your holiness seems very selective.

[LivinginHoliness]

@EmilieSagae so if your quoting scripture then you forgot that in those same verses actual verse 15 say that but if a woman has long hair it is a glory to her,for her hair is given to her for a covering. and

to comment on mark 12:18-27 if you read states that if the mans brother dies and leaves his wife behind he should take her as a wife and if that man dies then the other brother dies.Never talks about marrying more than one or divorce.And this was a plot for the sadducees to try

[LivinginHoliness]

Respond to this video...

 continued to try and trip up Jesus it easy for us to hide behind false security that the devil gives to make us think we are fine the way we are.But God never made us to live the life that the majority of us live.God calls us in to repentance and conversion when Jesus died on the cross for our sins and was risen again now that salvation is already here all we need to do is grab hold of that salvation how.Through repentance through Jesus Christ our Lord

[tonymers]

he looks like pervert...sick ....hate gay propaganda...God have Mercy...

[creditcard09]

it is not logical to be pentecostal and gay

..its an abomination

[lafilleMalvina]

This man was in a serious struggle trying to find truth and answers for himself, this man would have BECOME straight if that's what God told him to do...and yet God let him be as he is.

All of you that believe in God know that God can make miracles happen, beyond our imagination... so why did he not change him into the "correct" version of a man if that's what is says in the bible?

[wkmitchell]

@lafilleMalvina "why did he not change him into the "correct" version of a man if that's what is says in the bible?"

It's called freewill :)

[LivinginHoliness]

@lafilleMalvina because read romans 1:21-24 and God gave us free will but along with free will is sure punishment for we shall be judge by our works.Its a decision you have to make to let God into your heart for real because if you let God into your heart then you will live His word and do what his word.Gods word is clear.Tell me how a person can say they love God and go against what the Lord says.The same way you have to freedom to choice to live for God that man does and chooses not to

[lafilleMalvina]

Ok people, so like this man said, he was "driven" to find an answer, he asked GOD to show him the correct path and went through therapy, and sought to be right with God... doesn't this make you wonder, wouldn't God have changed him into heterosexual if he wanted him to be straight? Wouldn't he have rid him of his homosexuality?

But infact, after all that this man went through...God let him remain a proud GAY human being......

[LivinginHoliness]

@lafilleMalvina Your reason is very illogical dont you think.Because this world is corrupt full of murder hatred and violence God causes to rise and set on the good and the evil but that doesnt me because he permitts it and didnt change it its okay the word is what you need to base it on and not everyone that says Lord Lord shall enter the kingdom of heaven.serving God is more than saying i love jesus or knowing verses in the bible its about a real encounter and relationship with our living GOd

[asimpleinstrument]

Continually practicing a homosexual lifestyle without any conviction is very strong evidence that you are not born again. Jesus said, a good tree does not produce bad fruit. Anyone (gay or straight) who continually lives in and practices sin without conviction must accept that it is highly unlikely that he or she is born again. If you're born again, it is very, very, very difficult to continually practice a sinful lifestyle. Those who are born again, go to heaven. Those who are not, don't.

[danthrplgst]

OK, first off it's not a fucking lifestyle...a choice or anything else that your misguided pastor or parents pumped into your head. It's a sexual orientation that is IN-BORN. If you honestly think that anyone would CHOOSE to be gay then you're sadly out of touch with reality. Perhaps if you allowed the Spirit, instead of pastors with agendas, to guide your reading of scripture you could free yourself of your sin...particularly, the sins of pride and arrogance.

[asimpleinstrument]

Ok, if it's not a lifestyle, it's a sin that is practiced continually. 1 John 3:9, "No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God." Also, I don't have a pastor, and the pastor I had never spoke about homosexuality in detail. He just said it was a sin like any other. My younger brother is gay, yet I still love him, but don't approve of the sin he practices continually. I speak the same toward any sin that's practiced.

[asimpleinstrument]

Yes. I, like any other born-again Christian, am positionally free from sin by the blood of Christ (Rom 6:22). In this life that I live, I am not perfectly sinless because I, like anyone else, have a sin nature that influences me to sin. However, I am not controlled by sin nor do I "practice" sin, like a homosexual or a professional thief, or a person who practices fornication, or adultery or any other sin. We are free in Christ, but not to abuse God's grace and practice sin (Gal 5:13).

[asimpleinstrument]

If you are a true child of God there's a difference between practicing sin & sinning without planning it -- although both are sins. It's possible for a child of God to sin (without planning it) but not possible for a child of God to plan and continually practice sin without feeling convicted. The job of the Holy Spirit is to convict us. When Christians sin because they are not perfect, they are able to go before God and ask for fogiveness; but practicing sin is an abuse of God's grace.

[questionsamson]

How can one sin without planning?

"If you are a true child of God there's a difference between practicing sin & sinning " what is the differance?

Why would God create sin in the first place if he had to test us?

"When Christians sin because they are not perfect, they are able to go before God and ask for fogiveness"

Why are christians the only ones?

[asimpleinstrument]

@questionsamson One example of sinning without planning:  you are in your car waiting for the light to turn green. A beautiful girl in a thong bikini runs across the street and passes right in front of you and you looked at butt but immediately turned your head and asked God for forgiveness. There. Now, planning sin: if I go to a strip joint and PLANNED to go inside and observe the women. Simple?

[myGodis1lord]

@questionsamson first of all christians arent the only ones, God gives everyone the freewill to choose. and anyone could choose God over the world and the things thereof. Second of all Again God gives us free will to choose him or not to choose him. Again God wants ppl to choose him, not to make ppl choose him

[GibsonLesJosh]

@danthrplgst i agree with you it is, as you put it, "IN-BORN". But hey, so are a large amount mental disabilities, like down syndrome. so what you are telling me is that homosexuality is a mental disabilities?

[danthrplgst]

@GibsonLesJosh Dude...don't try and bait me by asking such a nonsensical question. You know as well as I that homosexuality is not a mental disorder. As for using Down Syndrome as your example. Down Syndrome is not a mental disorder; it is a spectrum of both physical and mental disorders, of which developmental delays of varying degrees is one, caused by the addition of a 3rd another chromosome at site 21.

[GibsonLesJosh]

@danthrplgst lolololololl u mad bro?

[danthrplgst]

@GibsonLesJosh No, but after looking at your profile I realize the source of your comment, you're a kid with no understanding of psychology or social issues. I'm not going to debate this issue with a 14 yo. YOu should find some kids your own age or go to a local GLBT center and ask them to explain this to you.

[GibsonLesJosh]

@danthrplgst no im a metal head :D psychology is powerful shiznit brahski. what the hell is a glbt? and i think ur mad. and really usher. lol you have no understanding of music.

[LivinginHoliness]

@asimpleinstrument not high unlikely it is impossible for anything unclean to enter the kingdom of heaven.the bible says we need to be born again born into the spirit and to live in the spirit on who practices sin is a son of the devil and it say in romans 8 if someone lives in the flesh they cant please God.hebrews 10:26 is even more clear that if you willing sin after receiving the knowledge of the truth (jesus christ)is the way the TRUTH and the life there no longer remains a sacrifice.....

[LivinginHoliness]

@LivinginHoliness for your sin why because jesus was that sacrifice and if when you willing sin your are in rebellion to God there no longer is the sacrifice which is christ meaning there is no salvation.there are to types of sin sins of ignorance and sins of rebellion we all ignorantly sin every day with thoughts action and other things thats why we need to constantly pray and ask for forgivness and direction but when we go against the word of God we are rebellious to God that sin equals death

[asimpleinstrument]

He became a Chistian to be freed from homosexuality. This is not a valid reason. We seek God to serve Him out of gratitude for the price He paid on the cross for us. From that point God takes care of our sinful patterns and conforms us to His Son, Jesus. (Rom 8:28-29).

[lisalizapop]

A HOT DEMONIC MESS

[lisalizapop]

you know good and well no one called him to preach not being gay

[WeSpeak]

AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!!

[chadsummers01]

This is yet another example of the great falling away Paul spoke about that would occur just before the return of Christ.

[lisalizapop]

amen chadsuumer01

ur on point

[danthrplgst]

glad you know what his point is, because anyone with an IQ past 70 is wondering.

[avb7]

silly man Larry......now finally I've found out how you heard about me.

[shekinahgloria]

You don't need electroshock or conversion programs, you just need to get genuinely saved!

If any man be in Christ he is a new creature, the old has gone!

No one who abides in Christ sins and no one who sins has seen Him or knows Him.

If he were truly in Christ he would have a new nature and the sinful ways of his past would have been crucified with Christ. Not saying he'd be perfect or never struggle, but he certainly wouldn't been living an active homosexual lifestyle.

[danthrplgst]

spare me...another short-bus kid...do you even realize saying trash like that is what drives people AWAY from the church. You cause souls to fall away...think about it...think about what you will say to God when he asks you "why did you not preach love to my sheep who wandered...instead you pushed them further away"

[shekinahgloria]

Yeah, calling people retarded is a great way to "preach love to my sheep".

If quoting scriptures (WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT I HAVE DONE ABOVE) were an offense to God then He'd be a confused hypocrite but since God is true and man is the liar we know that when God says WITHOUT HOLINESS NO ONE WILL SEE MY KINGDOM He meant it.

If the goal is to fill church pews then invite an NFL team and cheerleaders to come entertain- if it's to lead people to heaven we must preach holiness!

[freeze391391]

@danthrplgst its funny i saw this comment first and agreed with it then read the first part and it totally threw me for a role

[derrickheard]

you ant no preacher

[thor9541]

HE may be alot of things but pentacostal he is not The Devil is a liar from the pits of hell

[prophetdon112]

funny god said nothing to him about the sin in his life.

[talltangirl]

Gay+Preacher=OXYMORON!!!!

ma si vergogni!!

SHUT UP YOU DAMN CHRISTIANS!!!youre everywhere!!!you are all like damn gnats!

[holyghostrad]

1 Corinthians 6:9

Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders

the bible is clear about homosexuality...i'd like to know what he has to say about what God thinks about it!

[lgtplanters]

The word "homosexual" was not in an English translation of the Bible until the 1950s. When will people start understanding the Bible was not written in English, in the last few decades, or in our culture? The six main passages used to denigrate homosexual have absolutely nothing to do with committed homosexual relationships, but either with pagan Cannanite practices (see "abomination" in any Bible dictionary) or cult prostitution. Think context, think Hebrew and Greek.

[asimpleinstrument]

Rom 1:25-27, "For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due. Here, the word "homosexual" is not used, yet homosexuality is clearly expressed, and the act is called an "error" for which a penalty is given.

[Anchormike]

This guy is very sick!

[Lookingforfourfor]

Ohhh man...Leave it to the pentecostals to do this sort of thing

[garythedog]

anthony...very good for you..im glad you have decided to be yourself...im a pastors son here in the good old united states....i dont happen to be gay...but love gay persons...i live in gay neighborhood...and rent to a gay man...all my love ...richie!!

[thor9541]

He is not a preacher he needs to repent and be saved I hear folk say thier born that way but honey you can be Born Again!

[valeodude27]

PLEASE say this prayer with me. "God forgive me of my sins BUT I still want to have sex with men. Amen" This is why Christians are such a joke to the world. You supposed to be seperate from the world. Plus who in their right mind would go to a church with a gay preacher???

[ShuraBorodin]

who in their right mind would go to church (period)?

[valeodude27]

That's a good question. I don't go to church now but I remember going to church as a kid and watching the power of god coming down on our church service. Then all of a sudden it stopped and people started leaving the church. Last time I went back after a couple of years of not going the number of people dropped from about 70 or 80 on sunday night to 20 or 30. I just think that if your not going to church for the right reasons then there's no point in going. You need to go to worship God first.

[masorlie]

What does the Bible say about homosexuality?

The Bible says that it is SIN !

[philippeclement]

Agree to 200% I think this man just wanted to be "normal" like the others because he feared mans look more than the look of God. But at no point was he convicted of SIN, as you say. By conviction of sin, he could have come to repentence and only then will the mirical take place, God will give him a new nature with new desires.

[acillisspirit]

his just being like the rest of em christians, hypocrites!!!

[WillDeBEAST07]

if we weren't hypocrites, then we'd be perfect. and nobody is perfect but God

[WillDeBEAST07]

also we are supposed to strive not to sin (thus not beinga hypocrite). and if a Christian does not strive to become like Christ (who is without sin) then his salvation is not real

[goofballexpress]

hahaha. hehehe. my willy is warped!

[nativeman65]

omg u cant be gay and a preacher what in the world are u nuts read the bible for crying out load

[moneyman651]

ok im alittle slow so let me get this straight... HES A PENTECOSTAL AND HES GAY!!!!!!!!!! JESUS GOD FORGIVE US. do you people not read the bible where it says that this stuff is a SIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MikeyFlorida]

God forgive us all. This man for any trespasses he's done, you for judging him, and myself for judging you. we are all guilty. Do you understand that virtually all studies on homosexuality conclude that genes play a huge role in one's sexual orientation? if you listen to this guy talk you will see he has lived a very difficult life in trying to fight off something that is physically in his DNA. or is it a sin for some people to even be born? let's not judge, and let's not be bigots.

[AnonymousBChurch]

MikeyFlorida, the Bible COMMANDS US TO JUDGE: "Judge not according to appearances, but JUDGE RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENTS". John 7:24.

Why not quote the whole passage in Matthew 7:1-2: "Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again."

So we are to JUDGE, not according to appearance but righteously, and what stand we judge others we will be judged by. So START JUDGING!

[guitarstrummer9009]

So it's ok to judge someone because they are different from you? How would you show Christ through yourself if you "start judging"? Chrisy never judged like you self-righteous Christians.

[Psalmist100]

oo wow your slow....sin is in our DNA too... THATS WHY WE REPENT!

[FabianWilliam]

Don't oversimplify. Sin is not in us, sin is in the world. There's a difference there. And also if sin were in us, then that would be part of God's creation. The only thing that even comes close to sin in us is the God given opportunity and ability to sin.

Many people have tried to change from gay to straight. God has not changed them. It has been there in every nation at every time. Plus among animals. It appears to be natural. God obviously does create people gay.

[TracyMcSpacy]

This man is very self-assured, particularly being Pentecostal, having never lost his faith throughout all. His mentioning a "rehab" for gays reminded me of the movie "But I'm A Cheerleader" where a girls parents send her off to get "fixed" mentally~ a comedy. I admire his bravery, cliché as that word has become.

[SP567]

Very nice. A good look at this author and his beginning. Thanks.
