Minister encourages his flock to slaughter all gays by Christmas

Source: LGBTQ Nation




By Bil Browning · Wednesday, December 6, 2017

America’s most homophobic preacher exhortation to Americans to kill all LGBTQ people is making the rounds again. Steven Anderson’s hatred may have gotten him arrested in Botswana and banned from South Africa, but his freedom of speech allows him to spew his vitriol in America.

In the sermon, Anderson tells his flock that God demands all LGBT people be put to death and encourages them to do “as the Lord commands” by Christmas. The church uploaded the sermon online.

“Turn to Leviticus 20:13,” he says in the video, “because I actually discovered the cure for AIDS.”

“If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them,” Anderson reads. “And that, my friend, is the cure for AIDS. It was right there in the Bible all along — and they’re out spending billions of dollars in research and testing,” he said. “It’s curable — right there. Because if you executed the homos like God recommends, you wouldn’t have all this AIDS running rampant.”

The pastor asked to "pray for LGBT people and those suffering from AIDs" in the " lord hear our prayer" response. It shocked me because it was a retirement area of Arizona . I felt really good hearing that.

Me.

It always seems to go that those who protest so loudly really are under a burden of self-hatred and hypocrisy.

the feelings he is repressing and trying to hide from himself and others with this hatefulness are towards boys and not men.

children who talk back to their parents and weaing certain clothing on sabbath. When will these goobers quit fear mongering with a book from the bronze agewhich is way outdated and over edited. Read the story of Lott and then tell me LGBT should be killed. It's natural in nature and it's God's method of Birth control. They let anybody with an opinion and a mic speak for God cherry picking a bronze age book.

"God, who are you?"
"I am you...you're just not all that I am"
"Love thy neighbor as thyself". Preachers who talk of killing have no love in their heart and therefore do not speak from God.

There is a increase in Aids among heroin addicts. Male,female, straight or gay. It does not discriminate. I am speaking for our area.

Surely he can be charged with fomenting violence, or something of that sort.

If you are an artistic murderer, it is your right to kill the gays. because to prevent it would deprive you of your rights!

Mrs. Gissendaner had someone kill her husband. The killer got life, she got executed.

Ordering people to kill for you is always bad.

For those who hang back and doubt him, he has his trusty Bible he can quote, and prove that someone actually wrote it down! That proves you have to believe everything you read, but you can only read what the funny farm preacher tells you to read.

I mean, he didn't actually physically kill anyone. But he directed other people to do it.

Please let me know if I'm mistaken.
