What about political activism? PDF Print E-mail

I'm better suited to Christian political activism than to help someone gay. Shouldn't I focus on my strength?

God calls upon His people to be both salt and light in the world: salt, to preserve that which otherwise would turn putrid; light, to reach out warmly with the truth of the gospel. The choice for the Church is not either/or--it is both/and. Individuals may focus more on social-political involvement or in personal ministry, based on their giftings and burdens. But the Church as a whole must do both.

So, it's okay to be politically active--just be careful not to come across with an angry, ungodly attitude. This often alienates gay people, and makes ministry to them difficult, if not impossible. Remember that God loves people bound by homosexuality. He wants them as sons and daughters in Christ. Never allow yourself or your communication style to become a stumbling block.
