Chickens Don't Eat Chicken

Making of US What They Are

There has been a lot of hullabaloo lately about Chick-Fil-A's stand for marriage.  Apparently, they had the gall to assert that marriage was instituted by God as being between one man and one woman.

Now, there are various campaigns set against Chick-fil-A calling for boycotts in an effort to pressure them to conform with the demoralized social standards of this day.

Even supposed "Christians" are rushing forward to profess their love & acceptance for the homosexual lifestyle in order to avoid the fray.  Many of the same are stating that they too will join in the boycotts against Dan Cathy's (Chick-fil-A's President) stand for God's word.

But you know what?  Chickens don't eat chicken anyway! 

"Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them." Romans 1:32

What does the above Scripture text really say?   God indicates here that we can know certain truths about those who support sexually perverse lifestyles.  They "do" the same acts as those in sexual sin and "have pleasure" in those who do them.

So let's set one thing straight (no pun intended).  According to God's word - there are no Christians standing in support of homosexuality.  When you see self-professing Christians in support of such things, you can know without a doubt that they are not what they claim.  Rather, they are in fact one and the same as the sexually perverse.  Such are not "Christians" trying to show love.  They are in fact sodomites hiding behind a veneer of Christianity.  They "know the judgment" God has pronounced against those who do such things; yet, they not only do the same abominations, but take pleasure in others who do.  When you see someone standing up for their "homosexual friends" and supporting "homosexual rights", you are looking at a sodomite who still needs to be born again - even if they call themselves a "Christian".

I could provide an endless listing of companies who openly, publicly, and proudly endorse gay rights.  However, there are very few who will openly, publicly, and humbly stand behind God's words.  So, what is the big deal if Chick-fil-A chooses to stand with God when there is a plethora of companies who stand against God's words?  The world is aiming to make of us what they are: sodomites.

"But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter: And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? Bring them out unto us, that we may know them

And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him, And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly. Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof. And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door." Genesis 19:4-9

When the angels of the Lord came to visit Lot and redeem him from this damned city, the men of Sodom surrounded Lot's home and pressed into it to reach them.  Their objective?  They wanted to "know" the angels who had come to visit.  This is the same word used to describe a man being joined to his wife to become one flesh.

Some claim that the people of Sodom were just upset that Lot wasn't being hospitable and introducing the visitors to the city.  Yet Lot's response makes quite clear what these men wanted; he calls their request "wicked" and offers instead to give them his virgin daughters.  The men of Sodom wanted to rape the visiting angels so that they could make of them (the angels) what they (the men of Sodom) were.  The nature of these Sodomites was so aggressive and violent, that they almost broke down the door of Lot's home to get to them.

While many assume that the people of Sodom just thought these visitors were men, they could have very well perceived that these were messengers from God.  It was then very important for them to put out the light of God in those messengers so that their own degradation would not be exposed.  This is exactly what people are trying to do to Chick-fil-A...and what many will try to do with you if you let them.

One thing you should realize is that there is no middle round with that spirit.  There is no such thing as having your own viewpoint or perspective...and there is certainly no such thing as "truth."  You have to be one of them (either by open profession or silent compliance) or they will come against you with a fierceness.  You sure cannot come in bringing the light of God's word in the midst of their darkness or you become a target for attack.

Are you prepared to stand for God's word when the attacks come or will you too be chicken?  Know this, if you cannot call sin "sin", no matter what it is - lying, stealing, or even homosexuality - it is because you are still alive to sin (Romans 6:2, 11).  I am not speaking of being sinless here, but about not being in covenant or agreement with sin.  You will never stand against what you are until you are ready to be freed from it.  This is so much larger than Chick-fil-A.  I am speaking of your own personal testimony for Christ.  Do you have one or are you too busy trying to be accepted by the world (John 7:7, 15:9, 17:14; Galatians 1:10; James 4:4; I John 2:15-16)? 

Mike Huckabee has declared August 1st to be Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day and encouraged patrons to stop by and support the business on that day.  Others in the homosexual community have asked their supporters to go into Chick-fil-A to celebrate what it calls National Same Sex Kiss Day with public displays of perversion.  Hey, I say, this should make our job much easier!  Since so many homosexuals may be visiting Chick-fil-A on that day, Christians should go and bathe those places in prayer, being ready to cast out that homosexual demon to set many captives free.  And while you are at it, feel free to wander up to the counter and order a Chick-fil-A sandwich, some waffle fries, and a large lemonade.  :-)

For those who do not understand why marriage is only between one man and one woman, please see the following:

    That's what most people are going to say.

    1. Hi Anonymous,

      That may be true, but where have I judged? I am simply saying what the word of God says. As the Scriptures state, the judgment is "of God" (Romans 1:32). I am simply saying what the Scripture says. We are called to be witnesses to God's word.

      People will say alot of things. Our concern however must not be with the response of folks, but the fear of the Lord and His righteousness. I would much rather be obedient to God than seek to be a pleaser of man.

  2. Something came to mind as I was reading this. Whenever Christian entertainers/athletes or "Christian" TV preachers are interviewed they are always asked how they view homosexuality. I never hear them being asked "Do you think thieves should go to jail?" "What's your view on rapists and pedophiles?"
    Homosexuality is truly the dividing line, isn't it? They are going to make you choose one way or the other.

    Praise God for those who are bold enough to stand for truth!

    1. "Homosexuality is truly the dividing line, isn't it?"

      It sure seems to be. There are two kinds of folks in the world. Those who still have the fallen nature (sodomites) or those who have been redeemed and made partakers of the divine nature (saints).

      Yes, I do think that the time for sitting on the fence is long over; and that is a good thing! The question is, which choice will people make?

      God Bless!

    1. That is an awesome post Kelly! We cannot deny God's truth without denying who God is (John 14:6).

      The real evidence of those who love the homosexuals (and all those bound by sin) is that we continually point the way to the Freedom Maker. May God use these experiences and testimonies to draw more men unto Himself.

      Thank you for sharing!

  4. I hate it when people say don't judge, but doesn't the Bible tell us to be righteous judges because if we can't judge the things that are happening here then how will we judge the angels? Just because you speak the word of God then it's judging. Can you give insight into that scripture judge not lest you be judged and the same measure you judge is the same measure you would be judged. I want to put it on my Facebook page. Thank-you for preaching the word in season and out of season.

    1. Hi Anonymous,

      If you notice, this was also the Sodomites reaction to Lot's pleas to them. They were offended that he called their actions "wicked" and instantly turned to a "Who are you to judge us" stance.

      It is interesting that the people of Sodom never contested the truth of what Lot said. They did not accuse Lot of lying. They did not say that he had it all wrong. They knew that their deeds in fact were "wicked"; they just wanted him to shut-up about it. This is the motivation behind those who say "you cannot judge" today. They cannot come against the truth of what is said, they just don't want you to bring forth the light of truth.

      There is something innate in man which knows truth when it is heard (man's conscience). If we are not ready to turn from our wicked ways, then we will be offended when that truth is made manifest.

      While we are commanded to judge righteous judgments, there are some restrictions on what we are to judge. Perhaps the following would help:

      What Are the Restrictions on Judging?

  5. My husband and I both remember when the homosexuals just didn't want to be persecuted. They didn't have special privileges,were not asking for a marriage license, there was nothing special.

    1. I remember that as well then society gave them an inch and now they've taken a thousand miles. They still push that "we dont want to be persecuted" garbage but notice how they persecute any and everyone that disagrees with their perversion. They judge you by calling you homophobic (which really is an incorrect usage of the word since homo is same and phobe means fear but anyway), hateful, and narrowminded. You see examples of this with Obama and his hate speech bill, the anchor lady when she interviewed David Tyree of the NY Giants, with the military telling straight members that they will face disciplinary actions if they speak out in disagreement of open sodomites in the military.
      In the old testament in kings and chronicles you see the good kings of judah ridding the nation of the sodomites and breaking down the ashtera poles. They realized that sodomites were like a cancer. If you didnt cut the out and cast them away, the whole nation would be overrun with them. Sodom was the perfect example of that since Lot's daughters were married to men that were sodomites... Which is the reason they had never known man. Their husbands were homosexuals. So were Lot's sons. A little leaven leavens the lump. So what you are seeing in our society is the rising of leavened bread. Time to sanctify ourselves that much more.

    2. Hi JMD & Kamar G,

      Both of you are of course right in terms of the progressive nature of homosexuality in society. In that regard, it really is no different from any other sin in that it reflects the character of the one who inspires it. Whether it is fornication, homosexuality, covetousness, idolatry, lying...if not addressed, sin will grow and take over more & more of your life. This only makes sense because Satan himself can never be satisfied. You cannot make any deals with him or cut any peace treaties.

      As with all sin (including homosexuality), you must not make any covenant with the enemies in the land (as in God's commands to the nation of Israel), but completely drive out the demons in order to inherit the promises. The homosexuals themselves are not the enemies of course, as we war not against flesh & blood; but the unclean spirits which inspire them are. The hope for homosexuals is deliverance through repentance in Jesus Christ; the same hope that is present for us all.

      In order for the whole world to worship the beast, the whole world must reflect the nature of the beast. This is why there is such a push for the normalization of homosexuality. It is but one of the signs that we are in the last days (Luke 17:28-30).

      Yes, may we each sanctify ourselves so that we can be vessels fit for the Master's use to reach the lost - and make our own salvation sure by not having the same within ourselves.

      God Bless you both!

  6. Truly the devil wants the children. I am noticing in states like California they are pushing the sodomite agenda fiercely in schools as early as kindergarten. Next year California will have mandatory gay history taught in schools. Many parents want to "opt out" but the schools said they can't. For those that csn't afford private or charter schools or even home schooling, this means their children will be forcefully indoctrinated by the sodomite classes. They were.already being called intolerant, narrowminded, and bigotted because they didnt want the state.funded schools to teach classes that glorified homosexuality nor homosexuals. I don't.blame the parents. In some pre schools and elementary schools there are reports of teachers reading books about families with two daddies and two mommies. They want to desensitize the minds of the youth to such perversion so they easily fall prey to it when they get older. I was called a fanatical christian because I speak out against it but look at how fanatical the homosexuals are when it comes to making all of us bow down to their satanic objectives. If I'm fanatic for standing then I'm going to continue to be fanatic because they are doing no less on the opposing side. I live in salt lake now, which has been crowned gayest city in america as of this year and its crazy some of the things that go on here. They do their pride celebration right on the grounds of the city-county building. If that isn't a bold statement, I don't know what is..........One question....What do you think of a person that claims to be Christian and claims to tell gay people they know the wrath of God they face for living that lifestyle but turns and says they aren't anti gay?

    1. Hi Kamar,

      You ask, "What do you think of a person that claims to be Christian and claims to tell gay people they know the wrath of God they face for living that lifestyle but turns and says they aren't anti gay?"

      I may be misunderstanding your question. Christians are called to witness to those involved in sexual perversion, and such will certainly not inherit the Kingdom of God (I Cor. 6:9-10). That doesn't make us anti-gay in terms of being against the people, while we would surely be anti-gay in terms of the lifestyle. You sure couldn't be a Christian and then vote for same-sex marriage or anything else that would further that perverse agenda. I guess it just depends on what is meant by "anti-gay".

      There are homosexuals and lesbians I have gone out to dinner with, worked with, and socialized with in general. There are homosexuals we have prayed with and over for deliverance, even in our home. I am not against the people at all, as I recognize them as being bound by sin. It is my heart's desire that God would grant them eyes to see so that they can be set free (although not all desire to be). Thank God for the witnesses He placed in my life to lead me to truth when I was living in sin and rebellious to God in many ways. If not for the mercy of God shown through those individuals, I could not say where I would be.

      This we do know, however. Verily, all who seek after righteousness shall be filled (Matt. 5:6). For those who do want to be free, Jesus has made the way possible through His shed blood.

      Some people claim that those who are against the homosexual lifestyle just don't like homosexuals. Nothing could be farther from the truth. I am "anti" anything which promotes disobedience to the Lord. So folks can feel free to lump anything in that category that they choose. :-)

    2. I should probably also clarify that when I use the word "socialize" above, I am not speaking of fellowshiping within our sphere of friends. I simply mean that there are circumstances (family or work functions for example) where we do happen to interact with those professing a homosexual lifestyle. I look to such as opportunities for ministry; well, for that matter I look at everything as an opportunity for ministry. LOL

  7. Thank you. I know someone that calls themself a christian. They have a few homosexual friends and a sibling that is homosexual. They also says that they tell and warn them of God's wrath on such a lifestyle. Yet they say they are not "anti gay". I understand that we are not against the people, that it's the spirit in them that we are confronting. However when the issues of the gay agenda comes up this person feels people should let it be. That gays should have certain "domestic partner" rights and that people are misinformed about homosexuals lifestyles are when it comes to them having multiple partners or them even approaching straight people. This person is so ok with it that they allow one of their lesbian friends take their daughter out and sometimes while the lesbian friend is with her "partner". I once asked why they would allow such a thing and said that was a really dangerous position to put a child in because you never know what child may see or encounter around lesbians. I also said it would numb a child to the gross nature of homosexuality. The response was "Man you're narrow minded. They would never do anything to my kid nor let her see them kissing or do anything around her. Plus I teach her to love everyone regardless of their preference"........ So that is why I asked the question above. I just can't phathom a Christian being comfortable enough to allow their little girls to go out with lesbians for the day and not think of their child would be exposed to homosexuality in some way. And i definitely can't see how thinking because you are that comfy with it makes you not "anti gay". I dont have kids but i think its important to guard what they see, hear, and exposed to, especially during times like these. Sorry for being long winded. I figured details might help understand why I asked

    1. Hi Kamar G,

      I don't have any "homosexual friends" and there are no grounds for a professing Christian to support any part of the homosexual agenda. To me, that is the exact type of "Christian" being addressed in the article above. They cannot see the truth behind your comments because they "do the same and take pleasure in those that do".

      Forget being called "narrow-minded" because it is a "narrow way", so you must be doing something right (Matt. 7:13-14). :-) The most important thing for a Christian to be concerned with is pleasing God. Everything else can fade to black. Many professing Christians however never think one minute about whether what they do/say/think pleases God. That is a big difference; the difference between being born again vs. playing the game of religion.

      Keep strong in the faith!

  8. Thanks for taking time out to answer. I appreciate it. Sometimes on this track of sanctification you start to wonder and question yourself but when you talk to others on the same path you realize quickly that you're going the right direction and few are there that take the narrow gate. It can be lonely in desert places. Once again thank you for your time and thanks for your blog. Its helping many more people than you think.

  9. I was watching TBN last night and they were having a show about how America was found on Christian principles and that we are only focused on the least religious. This is a Christian network spreading disinformation about the true nature of the founding of this nation. this country was never found on Christian principles, but humanistic and Luciferian principles.

    http://parablesblog.blogspot.com/2012/06/who-cracked-liberty-bell.html?m=1

    This is why all this is happening, America has become a cesspool of every unclean spirit and before you know it pedophilia, bigamy, bestiality, incest and every unclean thing that God hates will be legal. My family and I will be seeking God in these last days making sure out hearts are pure before God and we are where God wants us to be and are seeing him and spreading his Word in these last days. Thanks for spreading God's word and truth in these last days. God Bless you and your ministry.
