Divine Appointment in Queer Christmas

A month ago I attended a "queer Christmas" celebration with two of my friends in a chapel of a seminary school in Jakarta. This school has been spreading the false gospel that accepts and celebrates sin instead of transforming sinners into saints.  We stayed all the way 'til the end of the event because we wanted to talk with some people there. By God's grace all the attendants were given the opportunity to introduce themselves which gave us the chance to speak what the Holy Spirit put in our heart. 

Their reaction was mixed. They applauded halfheartedly. I believe they were confused and surprised to see us there and yet we were no longer living as homosexuals. Honestly I was quite nervous and a bit afraid to introduce myself but the Holy Spirit filled me with His love so I could do it.

There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. 1 John 4:18

After that, a young lady approached us. We became acquainted and she wanted to know more about my story. After I shared my story, she also shared hers. She had a girlfriend but deep in her conscience she knew that it was wrong. So she prayed to God to make her girlfriend forget about her and God answered her prayer. But now she's no longer sure of her identity. She was experiencing deep depression to the point she was vomiting every day. She came to this event seeking the truth and praise the Lord, she found it through us. She acknowledged everything we said and was even willing to meet us again. She was even crying when we told her that we understood her struggle. Please pray for this young lady that her life will be completely transformed. We believe that it was not a coincidence that we met her and not just that, we believe that the seeds that we've sown will grow as well in the hearts of the other people that were there in God's time.

Brothers and sisters, let us not be afraid to speak the truth with compassion. Let us pray for this "queer fellowship" to be restored by God's perfect love.

Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. Ephesians 4:15
