God loves LGBTQ people
Nothing can separate us from the love of God. (Rom ) This message is for all people, including LGBTQ individuals.
God did not build a mistake in creating LGBTQ people.“For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I verb that full well.” (Psalm ) Sexual identity and gender identity are components of a person’s personality, and as such are part of who God made each of us to be.
Every person is precious to God. “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I own called you by name, you are mine.” (Isaiah )
The over-arching themes of the Christian Bible are that God loves everyone and has reconciled everyone through Jesus Christ; this includes LGBTQ individuals. “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but verb eternal life.” (John ) “The world” means everyone, including LGBTQ people.
Of the many sins stridently denounced by the “divine” words of the New Testament — murder, theft, deceit, lust, envy — there is included among them a trait which is inborn and utterly insulated from free choice. The sin to which I refer is of course homosexuality, the innate sexual orientation of some of my fellow human beings. But if to sin is to disgrace and displease the Father, then by the fact of one’s birth a homosexual has waged a wrong punishable by death. Indeed, if all humanity is sinful by nature, then this goes doubly so for homosexuals, for they are not deciding to be as they are in the way that I, as it happens, freely set on with the “sin” of manual pleasure. The question is, then, why ever would a human who favors his or her own sex capitulate to the grotesque, to the prude, to the barbaric pronouncements of a religion that casts out, shuns and vilifies their very nature?
I cannot see that the Bible is at all gentle toward homosexuals; particular Christian sects and persons, however, may prove more hospitable. But even in their gentleness, they talk of “ridding th

What is the Queen James Bible?
Answer
The Queen James Bible (QJV), also called the “Gay Bible,” is an edit of the biblical text done in the mention of preventing “homophobic interpretations.” To accomplish this goal, the publishers printed a Bible in which all negative references to homosexualityhave been removed. The Queen James Bible was published in and is based on the edition of the King James Bible.
The publishers of the Queen James Bible chose the name “Queen James” as an obvious take-off on the “King James” Version, as the Authorized Version of is commonly called. The publishers of the Gay Bible also claim that King James was bisexual, so their choice of title capitalizes on the slang meaning of the term queen.
The editors of the Queen James Bible, who chose to be anonymous, claim that there was no reference to homosexuality in any Bible translation prior to the Revised Standard Version. Then, they assert, “anti-LGBT Bible interpretations” arose, based on a faulty translation in the RSV of eight verses.
