Are the rules for gay sex different than straight sex?

GRANDMA CLAIR’S: SEVEN RULES FOR SAFE SEX:

1) If you can become pregnant get a LARC.

2) When dating go slowly, start with your hands and wait awhile before you move to oral or intercourse.

3) Only have intercourse inside of a monogamous and romantic relationship.

4) ALWAYS use condoms, to protect against STIs.

5) Avoid hook-up sex. And if you do have hook-up sex use only your hands.

6) Wait on oral sex until you are in a long-term, monogamous relationship and have both been tested for STIs.

7) Try to wait until you are 19 to have intercourse.

38. My Daughter Elizabeth Interviewed 21:04

منذ 5 weeks21:04

21:04

The American church is facing an unprecedented shift, with younger generations rapidly dechurching and stepping away from organized religion. In this episode, we dive into the reasons behind this trend with my daughter, a Stanford epidemiologist and biostatistician. Raised in an evangelical megachurch, deeply involved in campus ministry, and now attending an LGBTQ-affirming Presbyterian church, Elizabeth shares some of her experiences and observations. We discuss the key factors driving millennials and Gen Z away from traditional churches, including the treatment of women, queer individuals, and other marginalized groups. Elizabeth shares insights on how church teachings on sexuality, authority, and social justice have influenced her peers' decisions to leave—or stay—in religious communities. From purity culture to the political entanglements of modern Christianity, we explore why so many young people feel disillusioned with faith institutions and what it would take for churches to truly be places of belonging. If you're curious about the intersection of faith, justice, and identity—or wondering what an inclusive church looks like—this is a conversation you won’t want to miss. We cover everything from affirming theology to the broader cultural shifts shaping young people's spiritual lives. Tune in as we unpack what it means to question, evolve, and reclaim faith in a changing world.…

33. Am I Going to Hell? Romans 1 Analyzed by AI 21:40

منذ 22 weeks21:40

21:40

“I’m afraid I’m going to hell because I’m not attracted to men. Please give me an unbiased interpretation of Romans 1.” We received this question from a young woman, M.V. This podcast was created by one of Google’s newest AI engines, NotebookLM. (https://notebookLM.google.com) We gave NotebookLM M.V.’s question and these six quotes: 1. Justin Lee, from the book: “Torn: Rescuing the Gospel from the Gays-vs.-Christians Debate”: “Paul’s writings in Romans 1 are about people who turned away from God and engaged in lustful, excessive behaviors. This is different from a loving, committed same-sex relationship.” 2. Janet Edmonds who I have quoted frequently in this series, says in part: “The behavior Paul (…author of the book of Romans…) was addressing here is explicitly associated with idol worship (probably temple prostitution…’ “In the surrounding culture it was common for men of a higher status to take sexual advantage of male slaves or male prostitutes…” “The laws at the time in Rome allowed a master to demand sexual services from any slave, male or female” “Paul was not talking about homosexuality and didn’t have in mind specifically prohibiting consensual same-sex relationships.” 3. Matthew Vines, in his book “God and the Gay Christian”: says “Paul’s references to ‘unnatural’ relations in Romans 1:26-27 are often misunderstood. He was addressing specific cultural practices of his time, not committed, loving same-sex relationships as we understand them today.” 4. Rev. Dr. Mel White, Book: “What the Bible Says—and Doesn’t Say—about Homosexuality”: “Romans 1:26-27 must be read in the context of the entire chapter, which condemns idolatry and excessive lust, not loving same-sex relationships.” 5. Kathy Baldock, in her book “Walking the Bridgeless Canyon”: “Paul’s use of ‘natural’ and ‘unnatural’ in Romans 1 reflects the cultural norms of his time, not a universal condemnation of same-sex relationships.” 6. James Brownson, “Bible, Gender, Sexuality: Reframing the Church’s Debate on Same-Sex Relationships”: “Romans 1, 26 and 27 addresses behaviors that were seen as dishonorable and excessive, not the loving, committed relationships we see today.” For more information about NotebookLM: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0LMPb9JJnosPj8SPVRSF9z?si=rrOjkTrAR0eGO0Otrv5zfg&t=1466&context=spotify%3Ashow%3A44fllCS2FTFr2x2kjP9xeT…

1946 About the movie: 1946 - THE MISTRANSLATION THAT SHIFTED CULTURE This is a feature documentary that follows the story of tireless researchers who trace the origins of the anti-gay movement among Christians to a grave mistranslation of the Bible in 1946. It chronicles the discovery of never-before-seen archives at Yale University which unveil astonishing new revelations, and casts significant doubt on any biblical basis for LGBTQIA+ prejudice. Movie Reviews “POSSIBLY THE MOST IMPORTANT FILM OF THE DECADE…” Steve Koplan, UNSEEN FILMS “…one of the most engaging and informative documentaries I've ever seen. Not only is it highly watchable, but it has the potential to be ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL FILMS OF THE CENTURY as it seeks to prove that queerness and religion were never meant to be at odds. A must-watch for anyone trying to reconcile the two.” Matthew Huff, BUZZFEED Website: https://www.1946themovie.com Newsletter: https://www.1946themovie.com/subscribe GoFundMe: https://www.gofundme.com/f/1946themovie Social media handle: @1946themovie on TikTok , Instagram , Twitter , and Facebook The movie’s team: Directed By: Sharon “Rocky” Roggio Executive Produced By: Daniel Karslake Produced By: Jena Serbu And Sharon “Rocky” Roggio Original Music By: Mary Lambert Women Make Movies: https://www.wmm.com/sponsored-project/1946-the-mistranslation-that-shifted-culture Podcast produced by: ⁠⁠Elton Sherwin⁠⁠ Audio edited and enhanced with: ⁠⁠Descript Studio Sound ⁠⁠ Synthesized speech using: ⁠⁠Speechelo⁠⁠ #Bible #Christian #Affirming…

Did God cancel Leviticus and its archaic and unjust laws? We look at Isaiah 56 and a conservative Bible commentary. The results are surprising. Three Scriptures used in this episode · Isaiah 56: 4-5 (ESV) · Leviticus 18: 22 (ESV) · Leviticus 21: 18-20 (NIV) Quoted in this Episode The Enduring Word Commentary by David Guzik About Isaiah 56: 4-5 The Enduring Word Commentary says: “This also PROPHESIES THE PASSING OF THE DOMINANCE OF THE LEVITICAL ORDER. “Clearly, giving eunuchs a place and a name in God’s house CONTRADICTED the command of LEVITICUS 21:17-20. BUT UNDER A COMING NEW COVENANT, THERE IS A HIGHER PRINCIPLE AT WORK THAN THE SHADOWS OF THE LEVITICAL LAW.” Leviticus is describing who is EXCLUDED from the PRIESTHOOD Leviticus 21: 18-20 “No man who has any DEFECT may come near: no man who is BLIND or LAME, DISFIGURED or DEFORMED; no man with a CRIPPLED FOOT or hand, or who is a HUNCHBACK or a DWARF, or who has any EYE DEFECT, or who has festering or RUNNING SORES or DAMAGED TESTICLES.” #bible #biblestudy #affirming #gaychristian #queerchristian #Christian #exvangelical #pride #Lgbt #gay #ally #lgbtqia #trans…

“For, there are some who have been gay from birth, so knit together in their mother's wombs and created in God's image.” This is a modern, amplified translation of Jesus' words from Matthew 19: 11-12 and the topic of this episode. Scripture quoted: · Matthew 19: 11-12 (ESV) · Matthew 19: 11-12 (King James Version) · Matthew 19: 12 (Multiple translations) · Matthew 19: 12 (original Greek) · Psalm 139: 13 · Genesis 1: 27 Quotes and URLs Dr. Jack Rogers quote: …"eunuchs who have been so from birth," is the closest biblical term we have for someone who today we refer to as homosexual. Reverend Jeff Miner quote: www.wouldjesusdiscriminate.org/biblical_evidence/born_gay In the ancient world, including ancient Jewish culture as reflected in the Talmud, natural or born eunuchs… they were associated with stereotypically effeminate, characteristics and behavior… As we have also seen eunuchs were commonly associated with homosexual desire. Pastor Rick Brentlinger quote: Historical evidence beside what Jesus said, indicates that gay, lesbians and transgendered people were included in the group known as eunuchs. #bible #biblestudy #affirming #gaychristian #queerchristian #Christian #exvangelical #pride #Lgbt #gay #ally #lgbtqia #trans…

15. Isaiah’s Great Blessing 15:59

We look at the traditional view of Isaiah’s blessing, which is surprisingly affirming of sexual minorities. Join me as we look at the great blessing in Isaiah 56: 4-5. Scripture quoted: · Isaiah 56: 4-5 · Matthew 19: 11-12 · Galatians 3: 28 (NASB) · Leviticus 21: 18-20 References and URLs: Quote from Janet Edmond “It is difficult to overstate the significance of this story about the Ethiopian eunuch to our modern quest for Biblical insights into homosexuality. The Holy Spirit could have chosen anyone to be the first Gentile Christian, but the Holy Spirit chose an African, sexual minority who showed faith. “The Bible’s unmistakable message here is one of inclusiveness and of God’s love for all people, regardless of their sexual preferences.” Bridgeway Bible Commentary by Don Fleming: “When the Jews returned to Jerusalem, some Gentile converts returned with them. Among these were several eunuchs, possibly people who were previously connected with the palaces in Babylon and Persia. The law of Moses made it plain that eunuchs were to be excluded from the tabernacle worship, probably to discourage the Israelites from making their own people eunuchs ( Deuteronomy 23:1 ). But in the new Jerusalem all foreigners, eunuchs or otherwise, who honour God and keep his law should be allowed to worship in the temple along with godly Israelites” “Love and obedience towards God, not physical or national characteristics, are the important things in God’s sight. The temple is for the use of all people, not just Jews, because God’s mercy is for all people” Barn's Bible Commentary: “For thus saith the Lord unto the eunuchs - Even the eunuchs, who have hitherto been excluded from the privileges of the people of God, and who have been regarded as a separated and degraded people, shall be admitted to the same privileges as others.” Enduring Word Commentary: “This also prophesies the passing of the dominance of the Levitical order.” #bible #biblestudy #affirming #affirmingchurch #gaychristian #queerchristian #Christian #affirmingyouthministries #exchristian #exmormon #belovedarise #youarebloved…

Are the rules for gay sex different than straight sex? GRANDMA CLAIR’S: SEVEN RULES FOR SAFE SEX: 1) If you can become pregnant get a LARC. 2) When dating go slowly, start with your hands and wait awhile before you move to oral or intercourse. 3) Only have intercourse inside of a monogamous and romantic relationship. 4) ALWAYS use condoms, to protect against STIs. 5) Avoid hook-up sex. And if you do have hook-up sex use only your hands. 6) Wait on oral sex until you are in a long-term, monogamous relationship and have both been tested for STIs. 7) Try to wait until you are 19 to have intercourse.

From Apple Podcast reviews: A young man wrote: “I really don’t know how to say this, but thank you. Your podcasts helped me stop my suicidal thoughts. You saved my life…” A gay mom wrote: “You put some scriptures that have been used to harm people into perspective. In my gut, I knew those scriptures didn’t apply to me, but I lacked the ability to articulate that for others. I have shared your Podcast with dozens of people. I wonder how many gays will not seek suicide because they feel loved and accepted. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for showing love in this world.” If you’ve been one of our thousands of longtime listeners in over 100 countries– thank you. Remember, God created you. He knit you together in your mother’s womb, exactly the way you are, for a purpose, because He wanted someone with precisely your gifts and talents. God loves you. You are not a mistake! You were created by God for a reason! Stay safe, stay strong, and God bless. Elton Sherwin.…
