Letters: Against Pride Month and TBM name change

June 19, 2024

Against Pride Month

America’s rulers “cast away the law of the LORD and despise the word of the Holy One.” “Truth is fallen in the street.” “Hear the word of the LORD, ye rulers of Sodom! Give ear unto the law of God, ye people of Gomorrah!” (Isaiah 1:10; 5:24; 59:14 KJV)

“God created man male and female.” “Know ye that He hath made us, and not we ourselves.” “Whatsoever God doeth, it shall be forever. Nothing can be put to it, nor anything taken from it.” (Genesis 1:27; Psalm 100:3; Ecclesiastes 3:14 KJV)

“Sin is the transgression of God’s law.” “The men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly.” “Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind.” “A man shall not put on a woman’s garment.” “Saith the LORD, oh, do not these abominable things that I hate!” (Genesis 13:13; Leviticus 18:22; Deuteronomy 22:5; Jeremiah 44:2,4; 1 John 3:4 KJV)

“Knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death,” “suffering the vengeance of eternal fire”—“Sodom’s example”—are Americans “ashamed when they commit abomination? Nay, not at all ashamed!” “They declare their sin as Sodom” with rainbow flags, parades, drag queen story hours/shows for children, “church” celebrations, Pride Month. (Isaiah 3:9; Jeremiah 6:15; Romans 1:32; Jude 1:7 KJV)

“Pride goeth before destruction.” “Though hand join in hand, the proud shall not be unpunished.” (Proverbs 16:5,18 KJV)

“Ah sinful nation!” “Saith the Lord GOD, Sodom hath not done as thou hast done. Thou art corrupted more in all thy ways,” “inventors of evil things”—LGBTQ+’s ever-growing alphabet, they/them singular pronouns (“My name is Legion”), child mutilations, male mothers, trans-species. (Isaiah 1:4; Ezekiel 16:47-48; Mark 5:9; Luke 8:30; Romans 1:30 KJV)

“Saith the LORD, ‘Shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?’” (Jeremiah 5:28-29 KJV).

Opposing TBM name change

I find it inconsistent for the Southern Baptist Convention rightly to disqualify women as pastors yet support a name change of the venerable Texas Baptist Men to nongender-specific Texans on Mission.

I have supported TBM financially but will not support this surrender to the feminist agenda.
