Oprah & The Secret: New Age Spirituality

Disclaimer: I did not see the show that the following clip is taken from, but I can't let it pass. In this clip Oprah has a couple of ministers who were on The Secret DVD who supposedly drop a huge revelation to her audience of millions: "Being gay is a gift from God." I almost fell out of my chair. No where does it say that in the Bible. I could not believe it. The question anyone must ask yourself when ever you hear a "minister" or clergy of any kind: "Is this person speaking the Word of God or not?" You can tell by whether or not anything they are saying conflicts with what God has already revealed in scripture. No clergy can claim to speak for God and then totally speak against what God has already spoken. Homosexuality is no worse than any other sin...however like every sin the only cure is a relationship with Jesus. God does not desire for anyone to die in their sins but to come to repentance. The scripture says 2 Peter 3: 8-10

But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare.


Here is the clip showing my points:
