Please take a sound feed off your sound board and don't use the on camera microphone - the sound on the video tape leaves a lot to be desired.

If your video cam doesn't take an external feed, see if you can take a sound feed onto a computer and use Audacity to record the feed and use that in the video editing.

HAIL SATAN!!! : )

This is Gospel reductionism at it worst. The whole message of her "sermon" is based more on what she believes (wrongly) the text does not say than on what it does say. Whenever the word homosexual originated is irrelevant, there clearly were words that were used to refer to those whom we now call now homosexuals. This woman has no business preaching.

@opt4living What a heartwarming story. Now haul your evangelical arse to a more suitable video and bugger off. Kisses!

@baddave62 Dave, you're right, opinions don't matter. What's important is what God's Word says. If you read it, you'll find that He love you too:)

I wasn't a homosexual, but I was a womanizer, drunk, and glutten. I committed a host of other sins and Jesus wiped the whole slate clean when I asked Him to. He has performed many miracles in my life and He WILL do it for anyone who allows Him to. He truly sets His people free. Ask Him and He will lead you in the way to go. God Bless You:)

As you might guess, people who watch this video don't give a flying f$%& about your opinions.

Only since 1940s? Try reading Lev 18:22, 20:13; 1Cor 6:9; and 1Tim 1:10. Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Heb 13:8). Jesus loves homosexuals just as much as any of US other sinners (ALL have sinned). But, He loves us all TOO much to leave us that way! He did not condemn woman caught in adultry, but He did tell her to go sin no more. Preach The Word for people to be set free. Be a manpleaser and be condemned for leading astray. You choose. God said choose life. Selah.
