W.Va. town split over drag show

The town is not split,the town is united against this filth. Lark may have wanted to split the town but he failed miserably. Speaking of miserable, he must be a terribly miserable person. I dont know, maybe he wasnt loved as a child growing up, or he was molested. What else would make someone need attention, even if its bad? Need it so bad that he tries to force people to approve of him? Its pitiful and pathetic, maybe counseling would do him good.

Lark, I really feel sorry for you. I will keep you in my prayers. I love Kermit and everyone there. the town was most certainly not slpit. I love how God unified all the different dinominations in one mind and one accord. Your were always so religious. I know you don't think it but God loves you so much, but you are breaking his heart with what you are doing. I do believe that Jesus would have been right with the church people. The bible says Deuteronomy 22:5, The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man neither shall a man put on a womans garment: for all that do so are an abomination unto the Lord thy God.

Lark you really need to get a copy of this weeks Mountain Citizen paper. Front page news, no more renting the community center for anyone thanks to you. And I think I struck a nerve on that (not loved as a child) remark. My My so defensive!And you did bring the filth to town, but thank the Lord you cant anymore. YAHOO the church has beat you! Also no one wants to stalk you. Dont try to blow yourself that big, because youre not that important.

What should be the Christian's Response to the Homosexual?
Just because someone is a homosexual does not mean that we cannot love him (or her) or pray for him (her). Homosexuality is a sin and like any other sin, it needs to be dealt with in the only way possible. It needs to be laid at the cross and repented of.
Christians should pray for the salvation of the homosexual the same they would any other person in sin. They should treat homosexuals with the same dignity as they would anyone else because, like or not, they are made in the image of God. However, this does not mean that Christians should approve of their sin. Not at all. Christians should not compromise their witness for a politically correct opinion that is shaped by guilt and fear.
In fact the following verses should be kept in mind when dealing with homosexuals.
* "Conduct yourselves with wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of the opportunity. 6 Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned, as it were, with salt, so that you may know how you should respond to each person," (Col. 4:5-6).
* "But the goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith," (1 Tim. 1:5).
You do not win people to the Lord by condemning them and calling them names. This is why God says to speak with wisdom, grace, and love. Let the love of Christ flow through you so that the homosexuals can see true love and turn to Christ instead of away from Him.

I don't know of one person from the church that ever called them names or condeming them. If they are condemed there condeming themselves. You should get your story straight. They didn't do anything wrong and everyone knows that. They just can't think of anything else to do but blame us for doing Gods work. We care for them and love all of them. In the end everyone will understand, and they will regret ever acting like this. What is the big deal, they got to have their little thing. It's over now and that will not happen in kermit again. Deal with it and everyone move on from this.!
