Cue Call On Him by Fred Hammond. This blog should come as a
surprise to no one. Might as well just get to it.
So a basketball player for the Washington Wizards, Jason
Collins, came out of the closet. He’s getting called brave, courageous, and a
hero. I will admit that it was a brave thing to do. Why do I say it’s brave because
the world is full with homophobes. Most guys don’t like to the idea of being
groped by another guy, even if it’s for joking purposes. NBA is an obviously a
male dominated organization. So one could imagine that there would be
reservations in making a decision like Jason Collins did. So I do agree with
that aspect of it.
Now. Let me get in on this courageous thing. Is it really
courageous to do what’s becoming more accepted by society day by day? To me
that’s not courageous…that’s more like following to me. I mean sure he’s the
first active male athlete to come out the closet, but does he really deserve a
cookie for this? To me the courageous part about this whole story is what Chris
Broussard did. This man went on a national televised show and gave the best
Christian response one could give. Saying that homosexuality is a sin and that
it’s an open rebellion against God…that my friends was courageous. Going
against what the media and government calls heroic takes courage, and didn’t
use one homophobic slur.
I’ve seen a lot of posts comparing Tim Tebow to Jason Collins.
Basically because Tebow stands for Jesus Christ and get’s bashed and made fun
of for it. Jason Collins comes out the closet, and is probably going to get a
national holiday named after him by the Obamas who say they’re Christian. I’m
going to let that settle…
Now I’m not going to say that Jason Collins should be kicked
out the league for his sexual orientations because what you do in the bed room
doesn’t affect your performance on the court. It might affect if you go on the
court, Magic Johnson, but---huh? What?
Let me say this, gay, lesbian…that doesn’t affect any skill
on the court. Brittney Griner being a lesbian and Jason Collins being gay
should not affect if they’re allowed to play ball or not. If you think so,
please go on somewhere.
Also I saw a tweet saying that if you are against
homosexuality, you are a hypocrite. Um, quick question because I admit I can be
ignant at times. How in the—can one be a hypocrite being against homosexuality?
Please lets me know in the comment section. Being against homosexuals, the
person, is hypocritical, but not the lifestyle itself. People are against the
hiphop lifestyle, and by people I mean every COGIC church ever. People are
against the rock in roll lifestyle. People are against a criminal’s lifestyle.
People are against a pimp’s lifestyle. Again, I want to know how being against
homosexuality is hypocritical. Please lets me further know.
Homosexuality does not affect performance outside the
bedroom. Don’t get me wrong, I’m one of the folks that say homosexuality is
wrong. I’m one of the folks that say homosexuality is a sin. Also I’m one of
the folks that has his own issues, or sins, that I struggle with. I heard a
preacher say that if you want to be delivered, stop conversating about it. Get
away from it. God will give you the strength to deal with it, if you want to be
delivered. I heard a preacher say that if you want to be delivered, God can and
will deliver. Why is it that when we know we’re wrong, we don’t seek to be
delivered? Take it to the Lord, and leave it there. We take it to the Lord but
then we take it back with us…yep.
Stay Saved,
