The Difference Between Bishop Eddie Long and Gay Affirming Ministers

Now, this matter really is very important to us, because Bishop Eddie Long has lived a hypocritical lifestyle.   At AT2W blog, we may rebuke various ministers and gospel artists, but we deeply feel there is time to show love. compassion and consider the lives of those who have past on and may not have gotten another chance to repent.   We try to be fair and honest and so this is why you saw the post regarding the late Bishop Walter Hawkins, a man who was blessed with many talents, but gone too soon before his time.   We hope and pray Bishop Walter Hawkins repented and God forgave him.   However, we would like to share with you the difference between Bishop Eddie Long and gay affirming ministries, both wrong, except one is honest to admit what they want is to desire to be with the same sex as though they are born again Christians.   Furthermore, this article is to explain why Bishop Eddie Long hypocrisy should not be excused while also rebuking gay affirming ministers like Bishop Yvette Flunder, Bishop Carlton Pearson, Jaye Baker, Bishop O. C. Allen III, Kenneth Samuel and many others.   For all of you Bishop Eddie Long lovers, the truth is, after he was caught in his scandal, he yet allegedly refuses to preach against homosexuality while these gay affirming preachers seem to be continuing doing their job to deceive souls for Satan.  Since his alleged sex scandal, we have not heard Bishop Eddie Long preach another sermon against homosexuality or even opposing same sex marriage.


Let us first ask you this very important question, how can we win homosexuals if we continue to rebuke them and never discuss the hidden homosexual lifestyle of Bishop Eddie Long? God is not unfair and neither should we be, so let us reveal to you the big difference between Bishop Eddie Long and gay affirming ministers.  First, let us remind you that just because Bishop Eddie Long was not out of the closet as a homosexual does not make him above gay affirming ministers.   He along with all of them will risk going to hell, if they do not repent.


As you know Bishop Eddie Long had secret alleged sexual affairs with young teenage boys.   Bishop Eddie Long was also married at the time of the accusations to Elder Vanessa Long who is the mother of three of his children and still his wife.   Bishop Eddie Long preached against homosexuality while living a double lifestyle with these young boys.   He, along with Elder Bernice King led marches on the streets of Atlanta, Georgia against same sex marriage.   Interim, he gave these young teenage boys the keys to drive his luxury cars, bought them gifts and leased them homes, allegedly.   Bishop Eddie Long acted as though he was so righteous.   Bishop Eddie Long deceived people into believing he was indeed a true man of God who never approved of homosexuality.   He never affirmed the gay and lesbian lifestyle and often threw out on the homosexual community with harsh jokes in his sermons.  He wore muscle shirts to show off his muscular physique and possibly to hide his soft side.  Therefore, no one who listened to Bishop Eddie Long ever knew he was the type of man who liked men or even would molest young boys, allegedly.  We never knew we were in for surprise to hear of his past hidden lust for the same sex, allegedly.

Gay affirming ministers are no better; however unlike Bishop Eddie Long we acknowledge they are preaching a false doctrine.   We know they are deceiving people while claiming they are gay or lesbian.   Gay affirming pastors are hypocrites, but they are not living a double life like Bishop Eddie Long did for so long.   Neither Long or gay affirming ministers are good for ministry.  The only difference is, we all know that gay affirming ministries are honest enough to admit they believe there is nothing wrong with being married to the same sex or just being gay.   The scariest part about this entire issue is this, Bishop Eddie Long is no better than gay affirming ministers and if he has not repented, he may risk going to eternal hell and damnation just like a lot of other hypocritical preachers who are yet living a double lifestyle.    We must tell the entire truth, although you may not like it.
