That escalated quickly, really quick. I still remember over a decade ago when the fake conservative party introduced the bill for gay marriage (branded equal marriage). I remember a sleeping church, and I remember fellow Christians confronting other believers for not showing enough love for LGBT individuals.

So many drank the Kool-Aid of modern morality and modern love. But it seemed obvious to me that the gay marriage law had little to do with equality. Arguments like, if two people love each other, they should be able to marry. Very very flimsy, and weak arguments like that won the day.
I also knew it would not end there. Since the Pandoras box was opened, the church has actually conducted gay marriages and baptism ceremonies for those who transgender themselves.
Christians have lost their jobs for refusing to believe there are more than two genders. Some have been treated as terrorists, labelled ‘far’ right and extreme. The pride flag is championed everywhere, and the local council even paints the zebra crossing with the distorted rainbow.
A decade later and the government has introduced yet another radical bill. This time they are banning conversion therapy.
The funny thing is, I didn’t really know what conversion therapy was or is; I possibly still don’t. It really isn't a “thing,” I don’t think. But the way the issue has been pressed caused me to realise it was another serpentine strategy to attack God’s law and God’s people.
I mean if people are performing electric shock treatment to change sexual orientation, I would understand why they’d seek to ban the practice. But It seems at its heart the aim is really to stop anyone supporting, helping, guiding and persuading someone else to change their unwanted same-sex attraction.
I recall an undercover Channel 4 piece that featured a pastor trying to pray the gay away some years ago. It had that whole undercover criminal camera look. But essentially, it was a man who had come for deliverance from his gay attraction and was receiving passionate prayer.
I started to understand what they meant by “conversion therapy”. In other words, though the term appeared to sound like it was targeting a specific medical or therapeutic practice, it was actually very broad in its application.
I have since googled what conversion therapy might mean. According to Stonewall, “no one should be told their identity is something that can be cured”. A government equality advisor said it could include talking therapies and prayer.
The basic crux of the argument this time is “it’s hurtful and harmful” to change anyone with same-sex attraction.
In the new LGBT religion it is sacrilegious to leave the faith or to suggest anyone would want to. In essence from gay marriage to banning conversion therapy, the aim is to ensure homosexuality is seen as perfectly normal and even wonderful.
The powerful forces, from big banks, big tech, big business, big government and the educational system, are too much for the little guy to fight against. Like in the days of Nebuchadnezzar, everyone is compelled to bow down to the new woke LGBT gods.
I was shocked to hear that Barclays bank decided to close the bank account of Dr Mike Davidson’s organisation because he was accused of practicing “conversion therapy”. But I honestly shouldn't have been shocked, gone are the days when businesses were neutral entities. All must virtue signal and declare their loyalty to the cause.
So once again, under the fake conservative party, they are close to securing a victory to ban “conversion therapy”. I wonder what life will be like ten years from now?
And I wonder if Christians have yet realised that they are not dealing with a minor ascentric lobbying group, but are wrestling with the spirit of the age which in loyalty to Christ are duty bound to resist.
The LGBT campaign to ban conversion therapy is not about protecting people from abusive practices but about affirming a false identity and banning ‘conversion’ full stop.
It is against the essence of the gospel: a call to repentance, the changing from the old to the new, the transformation from darkness to light. It is in effect seeking to legislate against repentance.
And I wonder if people, in general, have yet realised that we are not dealing with a minor eccentric lobbying group, but we are directly facing the spirit of the antichrist.
Will you compromise the message of repentance? Or will you do like much of Christendom and tweak your message to “come as you are, and stay as you are?”
Are you ready for persecution 2.0? Exciting times ahead.
