Live your life as a soul, not a label

When I let go these limiting beliefs about God and Christianity, I didn’t do so to be contrary or to turn my back Christianity, I did so because they were holding me back from the Good News of the Gospel. I had to let go some of my deepest held beliefs so that I could discover a Christianity that was even deeper than I’d imagined. I thought that questioning these beliefs meant letting go of “real” Christianity but the irony is that the theology I hold today … is more rooted in the Bible and in the saints throughout the ages than my faith has ever been before.

EC: What do you think is the biggest obstacle Christianity has to face in order to embrace LGBT Christians? DG: The biggest obstacle is a calcified reading of scripture that thinks the “LGBT issue” is only a sexual ethics issue and that issue is resolved by six passages. We need to successfully do a reframing to get people to see the relevance of the entire biblical witness related to human dignity, family wholeness, human wellbeing, and mental health. It’s a “human beings needing to be treated like other human beings” issue. Especially parents not accidentally or on purpose rejecting and irreparably harming their own children – it’s that kind of issue. You have a received tradition of what Bible passages are relevant and how they’re to be interpreted. And then you have power structures that are invested in that tradition. So to challenge the tradition of biblical interpretation and the codes that follow from them is to challenge them.

What you see depends on where you look.

Love has no limits. It does not set conditions. Love sets you free. Love should be freely given and received. Don’t ever let someone tell you love is conditional.

[positivelifetips]

Know your identity or others will define it for you.  You are who you say you are. So don’t let people define you. Don’t let relationships define you. Don’t let your career define you. Most importantly don’t let past mistakes define you. Do however let YOU define YOU!
