Charleston eventbJsmes Smith speaker
I attended the event in Charleston and it was great until James Smith opened his mouth. We were warned to “suck it up buttercup” by the MC but the un-Christ like words first spoken were disgusting. He stated with there are people there that want to be addressed as they/them —my Lord and Savior LOVES ALL people regardless if they are LGBT community. Did the Holy Spirit speak to Mr Smith and point out sinners for him to persecute? Of course not - I understand he not many support LGBT but they are God’s children and they are no more sinful than he is. A sin is a sin is a sin. My God does not attack with hateful/hurtful words. The LGBT people will stand before God just like we all will and I am disappointed that Life Surge supported those comments. Mr Smith and presumably Life Surge are a reason people turn away from God. I thought the purpose of your organization was to bring people to God - Shame on Life Surge for supporting bigoted beliefs and not loving as God loves. The message I heard was not bringing people to God but that they weren’t worthy of Hid’s love. I’m surprised he didn’t bring in racism because he spoke hateism. My opinion won’t mean anything to Life Surge but what was spoken left many people sickened and I will no longer support the organization no matter how many celebrities are speaking.
