discrimination of Christians and their Biblical views, has faced a couple of challenges on this
issue recently, losing them both. The courts have ruled in favor of the universities and colleges
that have required students enrolled in their programs to affirm homosexual behavior as part of
their course curriculum.
Rather than seeing such rulings as a defeat for Christianity, I view them as one way in which
Yahweh is calling His sons and daughters to come out of Babylon. Why would Christians seek to
be trained by the godless professors of secular colleges and universities to provide counseling?
From a spiritual perspective, doing so is folly. What fellowship has light with darkness? What
does a temple of God have in common with the temple of demons?
I understand the motive for attending these secular schools. It is a practical one. If a person wants
to get a certain job, such as a school counselor, they need training and certification. They can
only obtain these things at approved schools. As a line is being drawn, and Christians are being
required to affirm homosexual behavior to participate in training programs, or to hold certain
jobs, they will find that they must choose between a job, a good salary, and the opportunities that
go with it, or to walk faithfully with God. I am glad that Jennifer Keeton chose to remain faithful
to her convictions.

This separation of light and darkness is a positive occurrence. For too long Christians have been
compromising with the world. They have been cooperating with the godless, and even with the
anti-Christ members of society. The ways of man are antagonistic to the ways of God. Yahweh’s
thoughts are not man’s thoughts. Christians need to return to dealing with homosexuality as sin,
which is how Yahweh defines it, rather than as a mental illness, or as a behavior problem that
calls for therapy.
One comment I have repeatedly come across as I have reviewed books, online articles, and have
received correspondence from various individuals, is that homosexuality is a complicated issue.
It is often brought up that there are a whole range of issues that contribute to a person embracing
homosexual behavior and identity. As we have seen, the APA attributed some homosexual
