DAEC presents biblical view on LGBT issue; expresses concern about increasing public nudity

Pastor Lennox Timothy, District Superintendent of the Christian Union Churches speaking at the DAEC news conference

District Superintendent of the Christian Union Churches of Dominica, Pastor Lennox Timothy, has said because of the growing LGBTT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transsexual, Transgender)  global movement and the silence of churches around the world, the Dominica Association of Evangelical Churches (DAEC) is presenting a biblical view to Dominica as a measuring line to this development.

“The Dominica Association of Evangelical Churches is an organization formed on the foundation of the infallible, inerrant, divinely inspired and singularly authoritative word of God and hence we uphold all its truths without reservation,” Pastor Timothy stated at a DAEC press conference held earlier this week.

“The quick moving agenda of the global LGBTT movement and the apparent silence of certain segments of the church around the world have moved us to present this paper on the matter of homosexuality which offers some guidance to our affiliated churches and present God’s view as a measuring line to the nation.”

Pastor Timothy goes on to question the persons who are stating that homosexuality is a natural behavior.

“A common argument in favor of homosexual behavior is that it is indeed natural for some, i.e. some people are born with that predisposition. This logic produces a morality based on predisposition or what is ‘natural.’ If am naturally attracted to the same sex it must therefore be good,” he explained. “Christian teaching is not at variance with humankind being naturally predisposed toward attitudes and behaviors which are inherently wrong. Of course there are those who are naturally selfish, violent or predisposed to addiction, adultery or pedophilia. Does that ‘natural inclination’ therefore make it a good thing?” he asked.

Timothy said the Bible teaches that every person’s nature is corrupt and must be regenerated by God, thus all men are born naturally into a multitude of vice and as Christians, we trust God to produce in us a NEW ‘natural’ which is a product of the New Birth in Christ.

“If any man be in Christ he is a new creation. The old is passed, behold the new is come, (2 Cor. 5.17),” he quoted from scripture.

The DAEC official suggests that the church should also seek out and love homosexuals, listening carefully to their pain, struggles and same sex attractions, and lead them to freedom that comes through faith and repentance in Jesus through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Pastor Jennifer Valerie

Meantime, Assistant Secretary/ Treasurer of DAEC, Pastor Jennifer Valerie expressed concern about the increase in public nudity in Dominica, stating that “there is a move by our people to see who can out-do each other in their display of indecency.”

Valerie defined public indecency as generally referring to acts involving nudity or sexual activity in view of the public, often with the intent to shock, offend, or arouse.

She added that it includes offenses like indecent exposure and lewd conduct pointing out that lewdness is of a higher level of offensiveness than indecency.

“It denotes public sexual activity, for example, people engaged in sexual intercourse or other overt sexual contact in view of the public or someone displaying his or her genitals in an aroused state,” she explained.

Valerie continued, “The value of a human being is therefore seriously downgraded and degraded when such acts take place. When one places value on oneself it is an internal moral compass that causes one to avoid the above-named behavior.”

She added that those who seek to enlist others in performing such acts publicly and those who partake in such seem to lack a sense of the real value that the Creator places on the human body.

“The Creator’s statement that we are fearfully and wonderfully made and other utterances such as he that looks on a woman to lust after her has committed adultery in his heart, give an indication that great value is in each person and should not be cheapened by placing it on human display,” she admonished

She said the DAEC implore those who do such to cease and reflect on what it really means to value oneself adding that having a mindset that we are nothing more than our bodies and that we should seek to titillate others to get satisfaction and approval poses the danger of becoming the norm to young persons.

    “Pastor Timothy goes on to question the persons who are stating that homosexuality is a natural behavior.”

    Lennox the people who are condoning homosexuality, and lesbianism are tools of Satan, who themselves practice homosexuality, and lesbianism!

    There is no way to defend the practice of such filth which is not a natural behavior, rather it is a learnt habit, a learnt behavior; hard to escape when they become involved.

    God is very clear on the subject of homosexuals, and homosexuality, he dealt with them in the Old Testament; we saw what he did to the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah.

    Again in the New Testament he mentioned men bruising themselves, that’s men engaging in unnatural sex.

    God went on to talk about men leaving the natural use of a woman in order to engage in homosexuality.

    Do you really believe what came from your very own mouth, Pastor Timothy? Do you believe that eating swine is an abomination? Do you believe that crab, titiwii, agouti, lazar, veo, crayfish. shrimp, shatoo, lobster, etc., are forbidden to be eaten? If you don’t, and if you do not preach the so-called infallible Word of Scripture, then leave the LGBT people alone.

    W’re facing the most difficult decision making in our lives, that is to accept or not to accept the so called LGBTQ. Lets ask ourselves are we under any obligation to join this EVIL world and defy the word of God. We cannot be judgmental towards other people faith or way of life. However, we cannot force to adopt people culture or the way they choose to live their lives in their environment. Jesus die to saves us from our sin that we know is true, and that’s what we should preach. Every Country that sin against God will suffer the consequence of their sin, and if Dominica fail the test greater suffering will come upon us all. Those who fail to adhere to God words it’s only time will tell. I encourage the Churches in Dominica to keep Forum and educate our people to abstain from all manner of evil before God, and our soon coming King Christ Jesus. The rivers a just watching and waiting to see our next move. Be patient God will show us the downfall of a sinful nation. Wait I…

    Anytime the church speaks out against the LGBTQ community there’s gonna be a push back.. they want us to accept their lifestyle and force their agenda on our children.. As a Christian, it’s in our now nature to speak against sin and to warn people of the coming judgment of God. While we as Christians remain strong in our belief we want to Express our love to all peoples. Our massage is about love as so clearly written by the apostle John, ‘For God so love the world that He gave His only begotten son that whosoever believe on Him shall have everlasting life..”. God love is as same as His judgment. We love but we also have to warn the people..

    Continuing from my earlier comment on this topic.

    In many so-called primitive societies, the sexual experience is expressed – and released – in drama and dance. On the other-hand, indoctrination, taboos, prohibition and censorship stress the sexual component of sexuality and the guilt implied can have deplorable social consequences. From an early age we are taught that the nude body is a shameful thing, whereas in fact it is the most natural and beautiful thing in the world.

    I believe that the creative arts can serve as a moderator and liberator on these issues, just as they did in earlier times.

    I am not even quoting scripture. I am simply saying to leave our little dot on the map as it is. We cannot sustain the scope of America’s 52 states immorality. America begins a movement and it spreads globally like a pandemic. People are attracted by what is wrong. America’s fast food culture is global. It causes obesity, heart disease and death. Now little Dominica that Americans still do not know exists wants to adopt their cochoni. Gay, lesbian, transgender, bisexual, gender fluidity, where will it stop. Gays and lesbians have lived their private lives peacefully in Dominica. Now they want to do like Americans and demand rights while trampling on that of others. Let these people behave themselves, and stop trying to mimic big countries. Dominica is too small for that. Soon people will demand that we legalize abortion and ban prayers in school. For those who say I am closed minded that is just a foolish psychological tactic. Leave out dot on the map as it is.

    “If any man is in Christ he is a New Creation”

    Apostle Paul says it differently at Romans 6: 4 He said: “We were buried with Christ through baptism into death, that just as He was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so, “we also should walk in newness of Life”

    What is wrong with us, human beings is that we do not understand and capture the sacrifice of Jesus, for our sake, because we will not allow faith to bring our mind to the state that it might respond to the things of Life in Christ Jesus

    So we remain the natural man with a carnal mind condition, producing all the seeds fed it by our human senses; the sins which are against God’s Holiness, and yet declaring the Word of Life, HE SAVED ME

    Jesus’ mission was to bring us out of our cage of sin and mortality (death) which we inherited from Adam and Eve into the state of Holiness and immortality (Life). Homosexuality is one of the sins that should be wiped out

    “Timothy said the Bible teaches that every person’s nature is corrupt and must be regenerated by God, thus all men are born naturally into a multitude of vice and as Christians, we trust God to produce in us a NEW ‘natural’ which is a product of the New Birth in Christ.”

    Say more because if that is so then Genesis is wrong to state that God saw that ALL creation is good. Your statement seems to suggest that God is playing tricks on us by placing us “naturally” in vice.

    “If any man be in Christ he is a new creation. The old is passed, behold the new is come, (2 Cor. 5.17),”

    Dear pastor, It is always simple to extract a verse from the wider Text. This allows us to impose our meaning onto the Text disregarding the writer’s intent. Two things come to light: 1. What has been made new in Christ? 2. What exegetical analyses have been made in your interpretation? While I may agree with your POV, I must ask… What is the source of this theology and what are its biases?

    • July 13, 2019

      @Compere Tigre

      First of all, the pastor simply referenced the Word of God, which you referred to, it is the teachings of the apostle Paul, whose message is in the Bible.

      You are referring to Genesis 1, 2, and 3; and you are right also, everything that God created was good in His sight, including the formation of Adam and Eve, whom He placed in the Holy Garden to dominate everything else of nature as He created them.

      But Adam and Eve were given “free will” it was their choice to obey God’s commandment, as they dominate His creations, or not to do so; hence they chose disobedience.

      So from Genisis 3 right through the Old Testament, we read about the failure of man. We learn at Genesis 6-7 that the people were so wicked, evil, and sinful that God sent a flood to destroy them all

      The New Testament speaks about the redemption and reconciliation to the Holy God, when the Blood of the Son, Christ Jesus makes us “a new person”

    “A common argument in favor of homosexual behavior is that it is indeed natural for some” –News Article:

    I have said it many times before and I am saying it again: The problem with us, human beings, is that we continue to rely on our human senses which provokes our “fleshly” desires, but most of those desires are sinful to God, who is of the Spirit of Love & Holiness. “For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of existence—is not of the Father, it is of the World”.

    So what exactly is the conduct of homosexuality, if it is not a call for fleshly gratification? It is certainly not an act of holiness or worship to God in Spirit and in Truth, for He is Holy and that trait of His cannot tolerate most of the conducts of the flesh–they are all sinful to Him.

    The belief that homosexuality is natural conduct is a lie from the enemy; why would God give that conduct to some and not others?

      “The relationship between Eve and Lucifer is a very, very profound error, which affected the whole World from the beginning until today. “(Elizabeth).

      The Bible never spoke of a relationship between Eve and Lucifer; you have to be careful to state it as it is written; when we read the Bible, it is the Holly Spirit which give us the interpretation and understanding of the word.

      The Bible explains the fruits of good and evil!

       It said Eve eat of the forbidden fruit, and then gave to Adam who eat; hence their eyes became opened, in other words became knowledgeable to distinguished between good and evil.

      If you are insinuating that Eve had a sexual relationship with the devil, the serpent or Lucifer as you say; God would have made that known.

       When the Bible speak anywhere of a man knowing a woman, it is talking about a man having sexual intercourse with his wife!

        Listen, man, will you go away! You don’t belong in my class

        You can’t receive my message of the Bible in that it is spiritually discerned, you are not spiritually sensitive

        Shut up about the Holy Spirit! It is the devil in you who is objecting to my messages of God; he is using you to antagonize me, you are too stupid to know that

        You speak things of the Bible, then you say “it is not verbatim”; because you never understood what you read in the first place.

        My wisdom, understanding, and knowledge of God’s Word, are the tools (gift) given to me by His Holy Spirit so that I can speak His message to the World.

        You could never maintain those gifts because the condition of your mind remains in its carnal state–an enmity against God.

        You are simply reading the Bible if at all you do so, but you do not receive the “substance” of the message. Without that ability, the Bible is just a Story Book.

      No baby is born gay or with any sexual orientation for that matter.
      You speak of learnt behaviors; that’s exactly what homosexuality is.

      What we seem to forget is that God formed us / Created us AND it is the Same HE(God) who denounces homosexuality – it turns his heart. It goes against gods intended purpose and intent for man’s enjoyment of the beauty of sex.
      This sexual depravation such as homosexuality is an affrontation to God .

      To have any consenting position is to go against God which is nothing less than rebellion.

    Amen! Well said pastor’s. So to have you the critics. Firstly I would be pleased if the religious leaders do not tackle certain societal ills but ALL. They and we are to call sin sin whenever we see it irrespective of who is committing it. I am ABSOLUTELY, TOTALLY and WHOLLY against the LGBTQ beliefs and lifestyle. Today because of the silence of our spiritual leaders it has grown into the most powerful force on earth. That still doesn’t make it right in my ears and sight. A stitch on time saves nine. Had the churches spoken out about early enough it would not have grown into such a major PROBLEM. Today even religious leaders are bending to accommodate such filth in the church. So since we are in Da and it is the CUM Church leading the fight I am calling on the leaders of that church to speak out against the wife of a fellow pastor who seemingly has sold her soul with the approval of her pastor husband to sing praises of corruption. John the Baptists didn’t chose which sin to…

    DNO readers, are you all aware that the rainbow that appears with rain (God’s rainbow) has seven main colours; interestingly though, the current gay pride trademark ‘rainbow’ flag has only 6 colours – yup SIX (6) – make a quick count of the colours in the current gay pride rainbow flag.

    • July 11, 2019

      @Hmmm This is where we human being makes the first mistake, according to your statement above

      The relationship between Eve and Lucifer is a very, very profound error, which affected the whole World from the beginning until today.

      Adam was not walking in the Garden of Eden, with the nakedness like us, human beings; they were dressed in the “Garment of Light” the very clothing of God Almighty, Himself, according to David, good old King of Israel.

      So the relationship between Eve and Lucifer (Satan) was a kind of sexual relationship after he disrobes Eve from her clothing of “spiritual light”. And Adam was too naive not to join with her, but God punished both of them; a punishment that we, their offspring inherited.

      That relationship between Eve and Lucifer cost us our “Life” as their descendant because it was a blatant disobedient to God, a very sinful act which He was intolerable to His Holiness so He sent them out of the Garden of Eden.

      Once they gained the knowledge of good and evil the first thing they did was to find a way to cover themselves. This story is a metaphor to show us what it means to become a civilized people. Look at the uncivilized tribes they walk around naked as well. Should we go back to that lifestyle? I hope you don’t mind getting rid of your phone, indoor plumbing and easy access to fire, among other things.

        Are you saying that Adam and Eve were living in the Garden of Eden with God, in an uncivilized state before that sinful orgy with Satan?

        OH no. Adam and Eve had the greatest freedom that mankind will ever have until he returns to his Maker by his faith in the Son.

        Those two people were dressed in the state of Light, just like God, Himself, it is the clothing of the Spirit, the state of which freedom is the greatest of glory.

        Why do you think they were ashamed when they discovered their physical nakedness and went to hide from God? Is that civil conduct?

        Why would God wait until they had sinned to give them clothing; wasn’t it to cover their nakedness which happened to Eve when she went into that conversation with Satan? But that was his intention

        He disrobed her from her clothing of Light in other to do that sinfull act with her, foolishly her husband, Adam joined with her, it was an orgy that cost them their Life and ours too

      Hello,
      The old will die out in Dominica and hopefully a more progressive, tolerant society will emerge.
      God word will remain the same forever. Heaven and earth shall pass away but my words will not pass away. Just like every single person on this earth will die one day. That’s the same way His word remains forever.
      There is a strong spirit of deception on the earth right now, and God be merciful.
      Imagine how God feels when He sees the people He created for His glory is being taken into such destruction.
      God loves the everybody, for we all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. One day we will be held accountable for what we did on this earth with our lives.
      So sin is sin, disobedience to parents, stealing, lying, stealing, fornication, gossiping, drunkenness, homosexuality. Jesus died for all those sins.
      Even if the old die and a more progressive, tolerant society will emerge. God word stands forever.
      He will puke out those who did not accept sin as sin.

        God created human, and if he has no tolerance for homosexuality who are you to propose tolerance for this immoral learned conduct in society!

        Homosexuality is one of the sins, if not the sin he hates the most, so much so in one night he destroyed countless, rendering them blind, when they tried to sexually assault two angels, and finally in the process destroyed the cities of Sodom, and Gomorrah.

        God killed thousands in two cities because of their apatite for the rectum, the anus of men!

        Haven’t you read the biblical account, where Lot told the homosexuals, he has daughters that have never had sex: take them and do whatever you wish, but don’t touch these men.

        The bull-poppers told Lot; stand back, and let us have them.

      You are joking right? We won’t even go into the details of all that is wrong about the sexual part. Just from a moral standpoint the widespread acceptance of sexual deviance is bad for society in general. It causes people to question established morality and breaks down barriers to further levels of perversion. For example now that homosexuality is socially acceptable (at least in most western countries) they are currently on transgenderism (men can be women etc). Soon it will be paedophilia and going by some of the stuff we see from the media they are already headed in that direction.

      And about the old dieing out don’t think that automatically means that that will lead to some progressive paradise. Everywhere the world is already starting to go back to the right because we already went too far left. Statistics are showing that gen Z is more conservative than even boomers so good luck with that.

    Worldwide, fundamentalists of some major religions promote discrimination, hatred and often violence towards LGBTQ people. Because of religion, families are torn apart when misguided teachings conflict with the biologically determined sexual orientation and/or gender identity of a child or parent. Countless LGBTQ people are raised in religious families and experience a great deal of internal conflict and pain as they try to reconcile their own learned beliefs with the reality of who they are. The hypocrisy of the anti-LGBTQ teachings of the major religions truly must be exposed. Religious individuals should be critical of these teachings, as they perpetuate oppression, violence and pain throughout the world. Human rights are rights inherent to all human beings, regardless of sexual orientation.

      Get this straight in y’all heads. Genes do not code for any human behaviour. Homosexuality is a chosen BEHAVIOUR not a state of being eg skin colour, eye colour, height etc. There is absolutely NO GENE in any human chromosome that codes for homosexuality.

      How dare these homosexuals compare their diabolic agenda to the fight by blacks and women for rights. How rude of these people.

      What next? Grant equal rights to pedophiles and family members who want to marry each other? After all, the homosexual agenda claims ‘love is all that matters’.

      Why stop at just two people marrying? Legalize polygamy, bestiality………..and the whole rest of the other perversions out there. Anybody involved in these other perversions can claim they were born with their sexual preference and want their rights also.

      There is no scientific evidence that homosexuality is natural in the sense that individuals are born with it. And if I’m wrong about that please provide sources to the contrary. This is is perversion that is learned through exposure to sexual content and abuse at a very young age. Majority of LGBT have been abused as children and go on to be abusers themselves. I think we should be more real with THAT issue and start tackling it head on.

      ALSO very importantly, and it is astounding that they do not mention this, is the importance of family structure in this issue. A lot of these “LGBT” people, especially boys who fall into this lifestyle do so because they have not had strong male role models in their lives, notably the lack of a father figure.

      What we need to be focusing on is curing this culture of out of wedlock birth ans single parent families. It is ridiculous to be complaining about LGBT issues in a culture where men proudly boast about having children by different…

    The issue being discussed is not whether married or unmarried Christians commit sin, it is the issue of homosexuality which is condemned by the Bible in the same way that adultery or fornication is condemned. However, if Christians are hypocritical (as bad as this is), does that make sin acceptable? If one takes the position that others do it so its acceptable to do it too; then we are doomed as a people and our moral compass has gone totally astray. This logic cannot be a solution to a sin problem- sin is dealt by the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ and unless persons accept that fundamental fact, there will always be hypocrites, law-breakers and sinners. Which side are you?

    Do these Christian people have any views on sex outside marriage? How about preachers who are married and having extra-marital affairs? Any comments on that?

    My problem with these people is, they pick and choose their sins. They are all just a bunch of hypocrites.

      It’s low hanging fruit. If they were serious about solving this emerging problem they would start tackling issues with the family first because this is where this stems from. Boys growing up without fathers present, taking on the nature of their mothers are where gay men come from. Girls who are abused at a young age by perverted men are where lesbians come from. Not all of them but probably most.

      We have a very sad culture when it comes to sexual conduct and morality in that regard and unless we start to tackle THAT, it’s not just hypocritical but also futile to even try to tackle the LGBT issue.
