Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 


 
We have a neighbor who is a tennis coach.  She stopped by our house one day and I showed her my colorful tennis wrist bands that I have been using to help with my two broken wrists.
 
As she looked at them, she asked, "Does this mean you support gay rights."
 
I was very shocked.
 
I replied, "I don't think so."
 
(I couldn't understand why anyone would think my tennis wristbands would imply that.)
 
I looked on Amazon where I had ordered the wristbands to see if in any way these referred to homosexual/lesbian and they did not.
 
Then I recalled an organization formed years ago to support black people and it was called "Rainbow Coalition".
 
The wrist bands have several colors: purple, green, yellow, orange, red.
 
I think our neighbor wanted to know our view concerning homosexuals and lesbians.
 
I prayed:  "What do I do about this?"
 
Immediately I felt I had God's answer.
 
Pam Padgett heard this neighbor's question, so I called Pam into my room and asked her to send an email and a Podcast to this neighbor.
 
Pam sent the following:
 
"Since you mentioned "gay / lesbian support" yesterday when Joan showed you her wrist bands, you may be interested in God's view of this.  Here is a podcast:  "
 
Homosexual/lesbians.  What Bible says.

As Pam and I spoke about this subject, she was reminded of the following:
 
When you showed neighbor your colorful tennis wristbands and asked if she knew what they were, and she replied, "Does it mean you show support for "gays" and lesbians?", I kept thinking "Why would she say, or even think of that?
 
Nothing other than the bands being colorful ever came to our minds regarding the bands.
 
Then I was reminded of the following scripture:
 
Titus 1:15   Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.
 
Neighbor thought of "homosexual/lesbian" because her mind is defiled.
 
(defiled:  foul, dirty, polluted, corrupted)
 
Titus 1:16   They profess that they know God; but in works they deny HIM, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.
 
(Neighbor identifies herself as "Catholic" and she attends Catholic church.)
