Christian TV Host 'Comes Out,' Gets Support from Church: source
"The young host of a Christian music television show has come out publicly as a gay man, but to his surprise he has received more encouraging support than expected from the church."
""The amazing amount of support and encouragement has astounded me. I've never received so much encouragement like this, not from the church.""
"He's not alone as a gay Christian, he says. There are many gay people in the Christian industry, Southworth said, but it's "hush-hush" and they're scared to come out, he noted."
"Raised a Pentecostal, Southworth currently identifies himself as a follower of Jesus and does not affiliate with any denomination. He attends three different churches in Nashville, Tenn., one of which is led by a gay partnered pastor."

fyi:
Without a better way to put this...the "gay invasion" of Christianity, which has been ongoing for a while, is now 'coming out' into the open. If you belong to a church today you will be, sooner or later, confronted with this issue, and have to make a choice. Politically correct, or God's truth, honor, and holiness? God's truth, honor, and holiness are being smeared all over the ground now in 2008.
This utter corruption of the 'outward professing church' is also a fulfillment of bible prophecy. The Word of God foretells of this corrupted condition of the 'outward professing church' as being the last, final state of Christendom, and tells us that at that time it will merge into and become part of the global system of the Antichrist. This is biblical prophecy (Rev. 3:16-17). The true church, as opposed to the "outward professing" one, is to be separated out from this corrupted parody of religiousness (2 Cor. 6:17). Will you separate?
