    There are no ‘gay priests’ in Christianity – this is a spiritual impossibility. That they have completed theological studies and have their ‘paperwork’ in order does not qualify or make them Christian priests. These are faux priests, opposed to Christ and His Gospel of repentance and redemption. These are people who serve and value their agendas and sexual proclivities rather than Jesus Christ.

    One must conclude they have not been converted, born again, and cannot see the kingdom of God (John 3v3) and have not experienced regeneration and – the holy beautiful sweetness and love of Jesus Christ.

    This can only be the reason they are unwilling to die to sinful desires, lusts and gratifications…they do not know the far superior thrill and fulfillment of unconditional surrender to unconditional love.
