The Laodicean Evangelical Professing Christian Church Is Turning Gay And Embracing LGBTQ+ Movement As The Great Falling Away Nearly Complete
The end time Laodicean professing Christian church in America is embracing the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile community at an ever-increasing rate. Does YOUR church?
In order for the great ‘falling away’ to be complete, the professing end times Christian church, the church of Laodicea, there must be a full-on inclusion of the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile community into the church and for the church to be ‘welcoming and affirming’
The angel Gabriel said to the prophet Daniel that in the last days, ‘knowledge shall be increased’ and that certainly has come true in spades in our day here in the 21st century. But one of the problems with such a vast expanse of news and information is the news cycle is so short that we forget the older stuff and new stuff comes in. Such is the case with the incredible rush by the Laodicean professing Christian church to 1). embrace the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile community and affirm them in that lifestyle, and 2). pastors and other Laodicean church leaders who have actually come out as gay. There have been a lot of these stories, but as time goes on we forget.
“Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;” 2 Thessalonians 2:3 (KJV)
I believe, as I study the Bible, that in order for the great ‘falling away’ to be complete, that the professing end times Christian church, the church of Laodicea, there must be a full-on inclusion of the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile community into the church and for the church to be ‘welcoming and affirming’ of their lifestyle. The gospel cannot be preached as written, no mention of sin can be spoken unless it is in a very general, ‘we are all sinners so who can judge’ sense. As I scan the news on a daily basis, I see this not only happening, but happening rapidly.
“For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.” Romans 1:26,27 (KJV)
So I thought it would be helpful for you to be reminded just how much of a shift has taken place within the professing Christian church here in America towards embracing the LGBTQ+ lifestyle and same-sex marriage. Some of these stories you may have already heard of, while others may come as quite a little jolt.
Pastors And Prominent Leaders Within The Professing Evangelical Church Who Support And Affirm The LGBTQ+ Lifestyle
- RICK WARREN: Since he is featured in the main photo in this article we shall start with him. Yes, you can go to YouTube and search to find a few videos where Rick Warren, rather reluctantly and parsing his own words, says that the LGBTQ+ lifestyle is ‘not in accordance with scripture’. Those are his words. But his actions, like the photo where he holds hands with gay singer Elton John, and jokes that their kiss would be ‘heard around the world‘ tells you how he really feels. Those are also his words. The gleeful look on his face as he held hands with Elton reminded me of two high school kids with a crush on each other. So I wonder, at what point did Rick Warren take ‘Sir’ Elton John off to the side and tell him that he is heading for a devil’s Hell if he doesn’t get saved? If you have a link to show he said that (insert laughing emoji here) please post it in the comments below.
- JOSHUA HARRIS: This man is the Laodicean superstar who wrote “I Kissed Dating Goodbye” in 1997, and in 2019 has left his wife, renounced his faith in Jesus Christ, and has “repented” of telling LGBTQ+P for Pedophile people that they are lost and headed for Hell. This story created a firestorm in the Christian community, but you better buckle up and get used to stories like this, many more on the way.
- BAPTIST PASTOR OLIVER THOMAS: Baptist pastor Oliver Thomas wrote an op-ed piece back in May of 2019, and in it he made the case that the Christian church had “gotten it wrong” on the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile community. Thomas states ” A sad thing is happening in America. The church is killing itself. A great revelation has occurred that is bringing joy and happiness to millions, but it is being met with resistance and retrenchment from many of my colleagues inside the church. The revelation is that LGBTQ people are just like the rest of us — only LGBTQ. They are not perverts nor are they abnormal, as the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of mental health experts once declared them to be. People don’t choose their sexual orientation any more than they choose their race or gender. This is what lay behind a recent comment by Mayor Pete Buttigieg of South Bend, Indiana, that Vice President Mike Pence’s quarrel — if he has one — is not with the mayor. “Your quarrel, sir,” said the openly gay Democratic presidential candidate, “is with my creator.” And it only got worse from there. You can read the entire article here.
- SINGER & SONGWRITER RAY BOLTZ: Ray Boltz over the past 30 years has written some of the best-loved songs of the modern-day Christian music era. He also came out to his family as a homosexual in 2004, and went public in 2010. Magically, homosexuality and same-sex marriage is no longer a sin, and Ray Boltz is enjoying his role as a Pied Piper to help lead other Christians into the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile lifestyle. He says “I often get messages from people who thank me for coming out and say it gave them the courage to face the same reality,” he said. “Often they ask me for advice about how to handle the process of coming out to a spouse and children in the context of religion and faith. I never give advice about that. Everyone has to work that out for themselves. I only know that what I chose to do has brought me much happiness.” source

LITTLE MONSTERS: JOEL AND VICTORIA OSTEEN ARE HONORED GUESTS AT LADY GAGA SIRIUS XM AND PANDORA PRIDE CONCERT IN NEW YORK CITY ON MONDAY
- ‘JARS OF CLAY’ SINGER DAN HASELTINE: The lead singer of 90’s Christian band Jars of Clay caused a small uproar on Twitter in 2014 for writing a series of tweets in support of gay marriage. “Not meaning to stir things up BUT… Is there a non-speculative or non ‘slippery slope’ reason why gays shouldn’t marry? I don’t hear one,” Dan Haseltine wrote in one of his tweets. In the following few days, Haseltine continued to tweet and reply to his fans from all ends of the spectrum. “You’re refuting yourself. You are headed nowhere fast friend. Consider and repent,” one twitter user told the singer. Fortunately for Haseltine, not all fans spoke out against his opinion – in fact, he received a lot of support. “I have received so many great messages from gay Christians,” he wrote. “You have encouraged me.” source
- AMY GRANT: During her first gay press interview, and for an entire hour, the Grammy winner reflected – with her usual sincerity and thoughtfulness – on her loyal gay fan base, how she reconciles Christianity and homosexuality, her “compassion” for gay marriage and the unforgettable dinner she shared with out ACLU Executive Director Anthony Romero. source
- TED HAGGARD: Ted Haggard was an evangelical superstar back in the 1990’s and into the 2000’s. His New Life Church in Colorado was a massive megachurch with thousands of followers in attendance. n November 2006, he resigned from all of his leadership positions after allegations of homosexual sex and drug abuse were made by Mike Jones, a former male prostitute. Initially Haggard denied even knowing Mike Jones, but as a media investigation proceeded he acknowledged that some allegations, such as his purchase of methamphetamine, were true. He later added “sexual immorality” to his list of confessions. In 2011, Haggard came out as bisexual, Today, Ted Haggard is a proud supporter and member of the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile community, and in 2019 he pastors the Saint James Church where he “affirms and welcomes” the LGBTQ+ community and confirms them in their sin. source
- EDDIE LONG: Pastor Long was forever on TV waxing lyrical about how wrong homosexuality is. He was a big fan of so-called “homosexual cure” programme and often promoted them on his TV shows. Then four guys sued him for allegedly coercing them into sex. The whole thing was settled out of court, which made people think there was truth to it. Pastor Long’s wife said she wanted a divorce after the scandal. But then she decided to return to her marriage, so that she could offer her experience and guidance to others. source
- TONY CAMPOLO: Back in 2015, Tony Campolo announced his support for same-sex couples’ inclusion in the church. Campolo, a progressive evangelical leader who counseled President Bill Clinton through the Monica Lewinsky scandal and is a sociology professor at Eastern University in Pennsylvania, announced on his Web site Monday his support for same-sex couples in the church. Most evangelical churches tend to exclude same-sex couples from membership and within leadership. source
- JOEL OSTEEN: Like RIck Warren, false teacher and Laodicean pastor Joel Osteen will say, however haltingly, that he does think that the Bible calls homosexuality a sin. However, he has no issues attending gay marriage ceremonies, has no issue rocking out at a Lady Gaga gay Pride Month concert, and never tells the hundreds of LGBTQ+P for Pedophile people who attend his church each week that homosexuality is a sin.
- TD JAKES: Megachurch leader and author T.D. Jakes says that homosexuals should attend congregations that affirm their lifestyle and that politics do not need to reflect biblical ethics, adding that his position on homosexuality is both “evolved and evolving.”During an interview with the Huffington Post on Monday, Jakes was asked by a viewer if he believes that homosexuals and the black church can co-exist.“Absolutely… I think it is going to be diverse from church to church. Every church has a different opinion on the issue and every gay person is different,” he replied. “And I think that to speak that the church—the black church, the white church or any kind of church you wanna call it—are all the same, is totally not true.” source
- CAMPUS CRUSADE FOR CHRIST (CRU): Campus Crusade for Christ (CRU) is an organization that touts itself as an interdenominational Christian ministry that is primarily found on university campuses around the world. Now a global parachurch mission outfit, CRU is a staple of youth and college group partnerships with over 25,000 missionaries in nearly 200 countries. In short, CRU is an influential voice among evangelical students. For the last several years, evangelicalism has been promoting the unbiblical notion that you can be both gay and Christian. The movement, largely influenced by pro-gay parachurch organizations such as Living Out and Revoice, has gained inroads into churches at an alarming rate. The notion that one can identify as homosexual while continuing to dress and act like a homosexual is acceptable so long as one doesn’t actively engage in sexual activity is biblically preposterous. Yet, this is the crux of the movement.
“There is no command in scripture to be straight; there is a command to be faithfully single or faithfully married, and you can do either of those without being straight.” – @RachelGilson at #Cru19
— Grant Hartley (@TheGrantHartley) July 25, 2019
Now, CRU is pushing this idea through its influential youth gatherings. One CRU leader recently tweeted that the Bible does not call us to be “straight.” Rachel Gilson, whom Hartley quoted in his above tweet, is a campus staff director for CRU in Boston. What Gilson said, that the Bible does not call us to be straight, is demonstrably false. Romans 1 clearly refers to homosexuality as “vile affections” and “dishonorable passions.” Regardless of the translation used, it is clear that the desire, in and of itself, whether or not it is acted upon, is considered vile to God. Why this is even a question in the Church now is baffling — no reasonable conservative theologian in the history of the Church would deny this. Yet, the movement continues to grow, and CRU is perpetuating it by influencing young minds to accept what God sees as unacceptable. source
“And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.” Revelation 3:14-19 (KJV)
Everywhere you look amongst the Laodicean ranks of end times Christianity, this is what you are seeing, this is the direction that everything is shifting towards. The King James Bible is on the cusp of being declared as ‘hate speech’, and it will be the professing Christian church that does it when it happens. You see, in the Laodicean church age, pastors are terrified of speaking the truth because the truth in 2019 will cost you something. They would rather have ‘peace and safety’ than preach the truth of the Bible. Mostly they are afraid of the money drying up.

Gay Evangelicals Argue That Bible Does Not Condemn Homosexuality
More than 30 U.S. states now recognize same-sex marriages, and an increasing number of mainline American churches are blessing them. But evangelical church members- which account for around 30 percent of the U.S. adult population – believe the Bible unequivocally condemns homosexuality. VOA’s Jerome Socolovsky reports that gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender evangelicals are coming out. Backed by a prominent evangelical scholar, they argue that the traditional reading of the bible is wrong.

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: With Minutes To Go, President Trump Blinked, Gifting Iran With A 2-Week ‘Ceasefire’ Leaving Regime In Place To Fight Again
President Trump blinked last night, leave the regime in Iran firmly in place to restock, rearm and fight another day against Israel and the United States
Let’s stop the nonsense right here. The regime is still in place. There was no collapse, no overthrow, no final blow. Tehran survived the storm, retained its ruling structure, and forced the United States into a pause instead of absorbing the annihilating follow-through strike that had been loudly threatened. That is not what defeat looks like. That is what “live to fight another day” looks like. Iran got everything they wanted last night, Trump had them in the crosshairs and let them go. On his Truth Social page, President Trump said “A big day for World Peace! Iran wants it to happen, they’ve had enough!… Likewise, so has everyone else! Just like we are experiencing in the U.S., this could be the Golden Age of the Middle East!!!” TACO Trump strikes again, leaving America noticeably weakened in the eyes of our enemies like Russia And China who now know Trump will back down at the critical moment.
“The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.” Psalm 55:21 (KJB)
On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, if 20th-century history teaches us anything about the Middle East and Iran , it is that the regime that has been in place since I graduated high school will do anything, say anything, and pretend to agree to anything to stay in power. Last night, President Trump had the opportunity to end it, once and for all, to eradicate the regime of the Ayatollahs, remove the enriched uranium, and reset the world’s most prolific terror state. But with mere minutes to go until his own deadline was reached, President Trump stepped away and gave Iran everything they needed to keep fighting. According to the UK Daily Mail, Iran is charging $1 million per ship to pass through the strait, something that they are now referring to as the ‘Tehran Tollbooth’. America is talking like it won, but Iran is still ruling Iran, still controlling the Strait of Hormuz, still forcing the world to deal with it, and now possibly collecting massive transit money on top of it. That is not the profile of a regime on its back foot. That is the profile of a regime that took the punch, stayed on its feet, and is already looking for a way to profit from the next round. So yes, from a “fight another day” perspective, Iran won big. It survived. It kept the regime intact. It retained leverage over the world’s energy artery. And if these toll reports are even close to true, then Tehran is now making money off a ceasefire America needed after telling the world the war was already won. It was a black eye for Trump and a bad day for America.

TACO TUESDAY: After Threatening Iran With The Extinction Of Their ‘Whole Civilization’, President Trump Now Agrees To His 8th Meaningless Deadline
TACO Trump Blinks On Iran, Backs Away From War Deadline And Hides Behind Two-Week Ceasefire Brokered At The Last Minute
Donald Trump spent the day talking like a wartime Caesar, threatening Iran with civilizational destruction if Tehran did not submit by his deadline. Then, just one hour before the clock ran out, he did what he so often does when the pressure gets real, he blinked. Multiple outlets reported Tuesday, April 7, 2026, that Trump accepted a two-week ceasefire arrangement tied to diplomacy and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, with Pakistan playing the central mediating role. Don’t get me wrong, I am glad there won’t be nuclear war tonight, I truly am. But I am saddened and embarrassed watching the pusillanimous flip-flopper Trump running his mouth only to make another meaningless deadline.
“A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” James 1:8 (KJB)
That is not iron resolve, that’s not Churchillian nerve. That is not the conduct of a man who means what he says. That is the now-familiar Trump cycle in full view: issue a threat big enough to shake markets and dominate headlines, pound the table, demand surrender, and then retreat into a “temporary pause” the moment the consequences of his own rhetoric begin to close in. AP reported Trump warning that a “whole civilization will die tonight,” while also noting the administration was pulled toward a two-week diplomatic off-ramp.

And that is exactly why the “TACO Trump” label keeps sticking to him like tar. “TACO” stands for “Trump Always Chickens Out,” a phrase that was coined by Financial Times columnist Robert Armstrong in the tariff context before spreading into the broader political culture. CBS and ABC both traced the acronym to Armstrong and explained its meaning the same way: Trump talks maximum toughness and then backs off before the final collision. What just happened illustrates that beautifully.
I do believe, with all my heart, that according to Daniel 2:21, God put Donald Trump on the throne over America. I also believe that God put him there, not for blessing, but in judgment over a nation that has become very much like Babylon. Just look at all the global chaos now,… pic.twitter.com/CTUTupV6Py
— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) April 7, 2026
Now that same label fits this Iran episode like a glove. Trump wanted the political theater of a final ultimatum. He wanted the optics of a strongman standing on the brink of decisive action. He wanted the world to believe that midnight would bring fire. Instead, midnight brought another extension, another pause, another exit ramp, another reminder that Trump loves the language of confrontation more than the reality of it. The ceasefire was reached only hours before Trump’s own deadline for major military strikes.
Let’s say it plainly: you do not get to spend the afternoon threatening to wipe out a civilization and then spend the evening hiding behind a “double-sided ceasefire” without being called exactly what that looks like. It looks weak. It looks theatrical. It looks like a man addicted to brinkmanship but terrified of the bill coming due. Even AP’s more cautious live coverage still described the moment as Trump pulling back on his threats for two weeks, subject to Iran agreeing to terms.
To be fair on the facts, the surrounding details were still moving fast Tuesday night. Axios framed the ceasefire as agreed; AP emphasized Pakistan’s push for the delay; The Guardian described Trump as suspending the deadline rather than pressing forward immediately. But across those reports, the core point holds steady: Trump did not follow through on the thunder he had just unleashed. He backed away into a two-week pause. This latest Iran ceasefire does not make Trump look like a master strategist. It makes him look like what his critics have been saying all along: loud on the front end, slippery on the back end, and forever trying to pass off retreat as genius. He wanted to look like a lion, but he ended the day looking like TACO Trump once again.

President Trump Issues Stark New Warning To Iran Saying ‘A Whole Civilization Will Die Tonight’ Invoking, And Threatening, Images Of Apocalyptic Disaster
Kharg Island Hit, Deadline Broken, and Trump Talks of a Civilization Dying Tonight as Middle East Brinkmanship In Iran Turns Fully Apocalyptic
Donald Trump’s latest Truth Social post is not the language of peace, prudence, or strength. It is the language of a man standing on the edge of a regional firestorm and talking like he is prepared to push the whole thing over the cliff. When a sitting president says, “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will,” after U.S. strikes had already hit more than 50 military targets on Kharg Island earlier in the day, that is not measured leadership. That is apocalyptic brinkmanship dressed up as strategy. That is World War Trump.
“And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:” Daniel 2:21 (KJB)
We understand that according to Daniel 2:21, that is is God that sets up kings and removes kings, all to accomplish His will in an given dispensation. If we believe that, and we do, then we rightly understand that Donald Trump is God’s man “on the throne” for this time we find ourselves in right now. A period of time the Bible calls the last days. So everything we are watching now are events and situations that have prophecy stamped all over them, because it is time for the prophets to be fulfilled.
BREAKING NEWS: Here we go! This confirmed video from RAF Fairford shows loaded B-52H Stratofortresses taking off today, and will be arriving in Iran tonight to coincide with Trump’s 8 PM deadline. Will Trump make good on his threat? We’re about to find out. pic.twitter.com/MSScvg9yg9

I have been saying for 10 years now that the whole reason why I voted for Donald Trump, all three times, was because I want very much for the end times timeline to be advanced. Trump is not doing it, God is doing it through Trump, and I agree with Isaiah that all this is a “strange act” and absolutely a “strange work” to behold. God has given America the president we deserve, amen? Amen.
‘A whole civilization will die tonight’: Trump’s menacing Truth Social message in full
FROM THE METRO UK: Donald Trump has posted an unhinged Truth Social rant hours after apparently breaking the deadline he set for Iran by striking Kharg Island.
‘A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will,’ he wrote. ‘However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS?
‘We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. ’47 years of extortion, corruption, and death will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!’
93 million people live in Iran, with the majority of the population living in built-up urban areas. Trump’s message comes hours before the 8pm deadline he set for Iran to agree to his demands. Explosions have already been reported on Kharg Island and other critical infrastructure today, however. READ MORE
