I visited the Cool Springs Mall this morning with a child. The image pasted below greeted us at a prominently placed store near the elevators and stairway. The child immediately launched into a series of questions about what it meant and why. I started with Adam and Eve and God’s establishment of marriage and his intent for males and females and how gay sex differs from God’s plan for mankind.
I warned the child that some adults target and molest children. If a nine-year-old headed for fourth grade can ask probing questions about gay advertising, he or she most deserves answers. Parents or grandparents should be the ones who talk with children about sex and not school teachers or leaders of children’s clubs and scouting troops. We need to remind them that God considers PRIDE a sin. Taking pride in sexual expression is odd. It should not be advertised to the public.
There are scriptures that reveal gay sex advertising and propaganda is not good for our nation or its children. Leave them alone! #CoolSpringMall #BrentwoodTN #FranklinTN #Tennessee
I prayed for today’s scripture and this is what the Lord dropped into my spirit. Maybe we all need this reminder that God has high standards. Christianity is a come as you are religion, but we are expected to allow Christ and the Holy Spirit to change us from the inside out.
“Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.”
1 Corinthians 6: 9-10 (ESV).

“A Call to Repentance
Come, and let us return to the Lord;
For He has torn, but He will heal us;
He has stricken, but He will bind us up.
After two days He will revive us;
On the third day He will raise us up,
That we may live in His sight.
Let us know,
Let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord. His going forth is established as the morning;
He will come to us like the rain,
Like the latter and former rain to the earth.”
Hosea 6:1-3 (NKJV).
