June 2024, Pride Month - Part V: Aiming for the 'Achilles Heel'

by Jim Fennell

June 2024: Once again homosexuals are given a “green light” to push their immoral agenda upon America in social media, entertainment, and education with the blessings of our federal government, as well as the support of many state governments. And now, unfortunately, many woke churches.

We hear about an entire “Summer of Pride” and not just June. But for Bible-believing Christians, there is NO compromise, NO agreement, NO support (nor can there ever be) with this movement driven by demonic forces and even Satan himself.  The clash between the believer and the world system has become more personal than ever since America’s founding. The gods of paganism have returned with a vengeance to America.

The enemy knows of an ‘Achilles Heel’ in American Christianity today, and their strategy will focus more and more upon attaching this weakness.  So, what is it?

According to Wikipedia, an ‘Achilles Heel’ is a weakness despite overall strength, which can lead to downfall. While the mythological origin refers to a physical vulnerability, idiomatic references to other attributes or qualities that can lead to downfall are common.

The weakness that the homosexual lobby is targeting more and more in 2024 is the fact that all organizations in America that function as a “church” or a non-profit religious organization are governed by the IRS tax code, specifically the requirements of section 501(C3) Title 26 of the United States Code. Non-profit organizations (including religious groups and churches) that qualify under this code are exempted from the payment of federal income taxes, state income taxes, and county property taxes.  A donation to an IRS-recognized religious organization allows the donor to deduct donations (up to a certain limit) from their federal and state income taxes due for the tax year.  

THEREFORE, IF this tax code can be amended to include a legal requirement that any organization religious in purpose, cannot “discriminate” against any person or persons who claim to be homosexual or transgender and that such “discrimination” from inclusion in the group (specifically membership or employment in that group) based upon their declaration shall be a reason to void the organization’s tax-exempt status under Section 501(C3).
