Christian Rock Lead Singer Comes Out as Gay But Still Wants to Sing for God

The people of God long for biblical peace or in Hebrew, Shalom. As I have stated before peace is not the absence of conflict but rather surrender to the ways of God.

The Hebrew word picture for shalom teaches that real peace comes when we destroy the authority of chaos and chaos is the absence of God’s order while obedience to His commands brings wholeness or completeness.

Leviticus 26:6 teaches that there will be peace in Israel when most of the people are following the ways of God. Verse 8 goes on to tell how 5 will put a thousand to flight and 100 will put 10,000 to flight, an exponential increase in the power of the people committed to the way of the Lord.

So it would make sense that the enemy would use believers who still desire to be a part of the body of Christ but have given up the struggle against sin to divide and weaken the church.

This is what has occurred among several Christian music stars that have announced their submission to homosexuality while wanting to remain in their role as worship leaders.

Trey Pearson, lead singer for Everyday Sunday, has decided that he will no longer fight against his desire for sex with other men and even though he is married with two children, he will abandon his vows to give into to his passions whatever the cost, but he believes this will not affect his relationship with God.

There is a lie being told when it comes to sexual immorality and scripture, that is that we are not understanding what it really says. I won’t break it down here but suffice to say people are trying to have their cake and eat it too.

Look, I get it, we don’t want to give up on our sin and sexual sin has a power all it’s own that is too personal for most people to fight because of the pleasure it brings for a season.

But just because we like it and want to keep it like that Kodiak bear cub does not mean the rules of the game have changed, the wages of sin is death and this generation is not immune no matter how much they say it is just the way I am and God should understand.

The enemy is very insidious and crafty, he knows human psychology better than any human doctor ever could. He knows how to make the arguments that will make believers feel guilty after all everyone hopes to have love in their lives and who would want to deny someone a partner, right?

But that is just a way to cause division in the body of Christ, it is meant to draw us away from the order of God’s word by using emotion and the human need to belong. The authority of chaos means to destroy the peace found in obedience to God so that we can be conquered through division.

The truth is that we all struggle with sin and the willingness to fight sin and crucify the flesh is what will defeat the darkness. I will be honest, my spirit is willing but my flesh is weak. I don’t want to fight it on most days, but I also don’t want to be enslaved.

Maybe you have the same problem, you don’t want to fight your sexual nature, your addiction to drugs, alcohol or porn. Maybe it is easier to steal from your employer than control your spending and start saving. You might covet that big house or that nice car or the jewelry your friend wears.

The bottom line is sometimes it is easier to say, “I just can’t help it” or “I was born this way and we’ll just have to accept it” than it is to fight against your nature. You were born naked too but you finally started wearing clothes, didn’t you.

If you want to claim that the bible is wrong and so is God and He better take you as you are along with everyone else, there is probably nothing that can be said to convince you otherwise, but just know that we all struggle with our flesh and we too must make a choice to have peace or sudden destruction.
