The Bible Has One Word for Pro-Homosexual Southern Baptist Churches Like FBC Orlando: Ichabod!

The Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) isn’t just fighting a battle over women pastors, though this is the issue that will be front and center at the 2024 annual meeting in June. The reality is that the SBC is facing full-on apostasy from every angle, from women pastors to Critical Race Theory to homosexuality. While the Bible is certainly clear on all of these issues, the one being most overlooked is the subtle embrace of homosexuality within the ranks of Southern Baptist churches, yet, it is the one that will cause the most damage.

It started in 2016 after a mass shooter gunned down dozens at a gay nightclub in Orlando, FL, one of the nation's largest Southern Baptist Churches exposed itself as an undeniably compromised congregation with pastors who aren't fit to lead. That church is First Baptist Church Orlando (FBCO) which is pastored by lead pastor, David Uth and associate pastor, Danny DeArmas.

Following the nightclub shooting, FBCO hosted an ecumenical event whereby they gave the stage not only to false teachers but to LGBTQ activists to blaspheme God. This was done with no apologies, no corrections, and no second thoughts.

During that event, Larry Mills, Pastor of Mt. Sinai Missionary Baptist Church, was allowed to take the stage and apply the name "head cornerstone,"—a title reserved for Jesus Christ—and apply it to the LGBTQ "community" referring to them as the "head cornerstone."

But it didn't end there. One year later, in 2017, FBCO began inviting "gay Christian" leaders from the Revoice movement to speak at the church.

Revoice is the “gay Christian” movement that has been largely condemned by conservative Evangelicals and even condemned by more moderates including Al Mohler. Revoice is led by openly gay but “celibate” men who claim to be Christians but whose sexual orientation is not (and cannot be) changed. This movement, led by people like Nate Collins and Preston Sprinkle, advocate for acceptance and inclusion of homosexuals in the ranks of Christianity and those who choose to remain single (from the opposite sex) should form close, intimate, marriage-like relationships with people of the same sex with the exception that the abstain from intercourse.
