🇹🇷 TURKEY REFUSES ENTRY TO LGBTQ+ CRUISE SHIP

Turkish authorities reportedly denied the Scarlet Lady permission to dock in both Kuşadası and Istanbul. The Virgin Voyages ship had been chartered by U.S.-based Atlantis Events for an LGBTQ+ Mediterranean cruise carrying approximately 1,900 passengers.

Turkish officials reportedly cited conduct they considered contrary to the nation’s social fabric and moral values. After being denied entry, the cruise was rerouted to ports in Egypt and Greece.

According to Atlantis Events, this is the first time in the company’s 36-year history that one of its cruises has been denied entry based on the identity of its passengers.

This story is already sparking a major debate about national sovereignty, cultural values, and LGBTQ+ rights.

I feel like I just watched a scene from the Temptations movie. Something is OFF with this worship singer.

The Lord gave me something in my quiet time this morning. He said to WARN believers who have made an IDOL out of LEADERS. Saints excuse poor character, immorality and carnality, all under the guise of INFLUENCE, POPULARITY and PERSONALITY.

We highlight the obvious IDOLATRY of sororities and fraternities, but the Lord does not want us to put ANYTHING or ANYONE before Him.

If something is not right, we should not remain under CONTAMINATED COVERING for the sake of COMFORTABILITY, familiarity, relationships or loyalty to people.

“What PARTNERSHIP has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?”
-2 Corinthians 6:14

“COME OUT FROM AMONG THEM, AND BE YE SEPARATE, SAITH THE LORD…AND I WILL RECEIVE YOU.” 🩸
-2 Corinthians 6:17

“BE SEPARATE” is the Greek verb aphorizō, meaning to separate, set apart or mark off by boundaries. This is not a passive suggestion. God is calling us to draw a CLEAR LINE between devotion to Him and loyalty to COMPROMISE.

“UNCLEAN” is akathartos, meaning unclean or impure. We cannot remain attached to what CONTAMINATES our devotion to God simply because it is familiar or comfortable.

Then comes the BEAUTIFUL EXCHANGE: “And I will receive you.”

When obedience requires us to COME OUT, God does not leave us abandoned. We separate from COMPROMISE and are RECEIVED by the Father. 🩸

I absolutely believe that genuine inner transformation will eventually be reflected OUTWARDLY. Let’s DISPEL the misconception that same-sex attraction specifically must remain for a LIFETIME. We should never place a LIMIT on the DELIVERING POWER of Jesus Christ.

I do not believe in merely “dressing up a spirit.” Jesus can transform us from the INSIDE OUT, renew the MIND, change our DESIRES, and bring COMPLETE freedom.

A person may still be in a battle TODAY without us making a theological declaration that they must expect the SAME battle until they DIE. That is the distinction I am proclaiming. 💯
