Love Won Out - "Alan Chambers: I Live A Life Of Denial"

In this series of videos gay activist Jim Burroway talks about attending Focus on the Family and Exodus International's "Love Won Out" conference which promotes "gay curing" or "ex-gay" ministries.

In this segment Jim discusses a small breakout session lead by Exodus International president Alan Chambers in which Alan candidly tells attendees to expect to live a life of denial. Unfortunately this brutally honest message was only heard by a small group of Love Won Out attendees -- drastically different things were said about the reality of change in the general sessions.

I am very lucky,, I attend a GAY AFFIRMING Charismastic Church. This nonsense of teaching people to live a lie,,, is not Scriptural. There are lot's of Gay affirming Evangelical Churchs and organizations out there,, just look for them on the net! God Bless

When did following Leviticus Law determine whether one is a Christian or not?

Just because someone kills in the name of christianity doesn't mean they are following the teachings of Christ.

@jtart51 Oh, come on! The reality is that u dont believe in the so-called "Word of God". Well, u believe in bits. You cherry-pick according 2 ur level of sadomasoquism. You dont want 2 obey it NOT because u are a sinner, but because YOU KNOW there is BLATANT EVIL & INHUMANE IGNORANT things ORDERED by ur IMAGINARY friend. You know: the kind of evil & stupidity that makes every sentient & decent person blush. Christians hate when others talk about the HYPOCRISY & IGNORANCE of Christians.

@lucasboden . It's Jesus. Not "Christ". "Christ" is a Greek title similar to Hebrew title "Messiah"... something that was given to him by Paul and the anonymous writers of the synoptic gospels. Jesus, they say, was a Jew and he believed in the law of Moses. He was upset with how the law was applied. He said he didnt came to abolish the law. When he said "love thy neighbor"... Guess what? That was not HIS teaching... that was not original. He was citing the law in Leviticus 19:18. Look it up.

There is a continuem here - If people are ready to change this might be the way- Hard to know as an outsider on this issue but all kinds of changes are possible.

Why do I feel so sorry for Alan Chambers

[AMLmathieu15]

i think alan chambers you would get the hint from god, if youve prayed enough and ur still not changing, i think u should start thinking that it maybe a sign from god that your not crazy, and that u should accept those feelings.

@jtart51

THEN send me to hell then cause i'm in love.

[jtart51]

The "world" hated Christ and him calling them out on sin. The world hates being called out on sin today. Whether or not somebody can change is not the point. Reading and believing the Word Of God and obedience to it is what the Christian life is about.
