Can practicing Christians practice homosexuality?A North Carolina pastor is inviting homosexual clergy in the greater Charlotte area to a debate on that very subject.Dr. Michael Brown of FIRE Church in Concord will be hosting a "public dialogue" September 20 on the Bible and homosexuality.Brown said he decided to hold the event after he learned that many homosexuals who attend an annual "gay pride" event in Charlotte claim to be Christians."Last year,they gave out thousands of what they called 'baggies of truth'with literature explaining why you can be Christian and a practicinghomosexual," says Brown."This year,they plan to have their 'Truth Booth' again,and I read an article in a gay newspaper explaining what their plan was,and I felt we have to have aresponse." Brown says that he "sought the Lord" as to what his response should be, and felt "the best thing to do was put the issues on the table and say, 'Listen, Jesus said whoever has the truth comes into the light.'"The North Carolina pastor says he wants to "break a wall down" because many people in the church are afraid to even reach out to homosexuals."The first thing we want to do is open a door.Then we want to show them-scripturally, clearly, categorically, through the Scriptures, the Old Testament, the teachings of Jesus, the teachings of Paul,that it is impossible to practice homosexuality and be a follower of Jesus at the same time,"he says."We need to show them that this is a forbidden sexual practice-just like adultery, just like incest, just like fornication;that homosexuality is not God's idea for the human race; and that God, in fact, has a better way for them."As Pastor Brown puts it, if his viewpoint is wrong, "that means I've been guilty of making God into a bigoted homophobe.If their viewpoint is wrong,that means they're sanctioning sin."
