As news of the controversial law banning same-sex marriage
continues to make headlines worldwide after it was signed
into law by President Goodluck Jonathan, the renowned
spiritual head of the Synagogue church in Lagos, Prophet TB
Joshua has spoken out on the contentious issue.
Judge not, so that you will not be judged, Joshua began,
citing Matthew 7:1 for Scriptural backing. We should talk to
people to be saved and not to die. I mean, we should talk
salvation, not condemnation. The Bible is my standard.
Through a new initiative on his ministries official Facebook
page, with almost 900,000 fans, in which the cleric responds
to people's questions in an interactive session, he addressed
the much debated question on same-sex marriage. TB Joshua
added: If my parents were one, I would not have been given
birth to, he proceeded poignantly.
Those that are asking this
question, (note that) if your parents were one, you would not
have been given birth to. You that are reading me if your
parents were one, you would not be reading this today.
God bless the reader and the hearer. His message is clear;
being gay is not something we should encourage but we
should not condemn any one.
