Watch SBC President Say Homosexuality Can Be Thought of as an Affliction and Not Just a Sinful Choice

During Southern Baptist president JD Greear’s sermon on Romans 1, Greear mutilates God’s Word by first and foremost by saying that homosexuality isn’t as egregious as other sins, like boasting.

In another video from that sermon, Greear refers to homosexuality as “an affliction and not just a sinful choice” because “for most gay people, they feel like they didn’t choose those desires.” Instead of being broken over their sinful desires — what the Bible refers to as dishonorable passions (ESV) and vile affections (KJV) — Greear raises the question of God not answering their prayers.

Logically, the entire mindset here lays the blame of homosexuality on God rather than man.
