Before we can begin a discussion about our need to turn our nation back to God, we must address the relationship between God and the person of Jesus Christ. The Bible is clear that Jesus is God’s only begotten Son. I believe this to be fact. Jesus, however, is also God.
I know this is a tough concept to grasp. How can Jesus be God if He is also the Son of God? First and foremost, we cannot attempt to constrain God to the laws of physics that we are subject to.

The LGBT community contends that Jesus never spoke against homosexuality. This contention is gaining ground and sadly, many churches are buying into this fallacy in order to placate those who want to normalize their licentious
