Don't sell out

I notice things, and something I notice is that people in business sell out their morals for money.Like, in the past, when certain sins maybe weren't so "out in the open" like now, there was nothing to sell out to,so the sponsors didn't have to court people engaged in a certain sin.What I see now, for one example, since so many homosexuals are "coming out", I see many business that deal with the public with pictures of the "rainbow flag"{signifying that they approve of,the "gay" lifestyle.}on their storefront, and if it's a big public outreach business, like an announcement at a sporting event,they go out of their way to "woo" them and their business by making an announcement how "proud' they are of them,and how accepting.Politicians{especially the "left",whose base believes in that}all of a sudden make speechs near election time "toadying up"to certain sinful lifestyles, seeking their vote. Now what I see as happening here is they're selling out their morals for money, votes, whatever. Apparently, the {money, votes}mean more to them than standing up to ungodly things.Then look at Christians in business. Christian bakers who don't bake a cake for a "gay" wedding, or Christian doctors who won't give an abortion,despite the consequences from their higher ups, because they serve one Higher Up, and that's God."Chose ye this day who you will serve".They may gain more business, or get more votes, by "selling out.'but the price they pay is stated in this Biblical question,"What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world, but loses his soul?"A good point?

Jesus notice that too. When He went to the temple to pray He saw this.... money changers, merchants that sold doves, sheep and other merchandize. He was so dissapointed. He was sad and angry. People sold out themselves to money instead of seeking the Lord in prayer and petition to suppy their needs. Jesus said. ·My house shall be called a house of prayer, but you have made a den of thieves. Matt. 21.13 Sell yourselves to serving the Lord. That will last an eternity. Merchants of all kinds we see everywhere. They are busy and running after gain and money. Those things shall not last forever. Remember. Silver and gold shall not enter heaven. The only thing we will be able to take with us to glory are these two things. The souls that we have brought to the feet of Jesus and the eternal word written down in our hearts.

They aren’t approving of lifestyle, they are offering fairness as the laws require. God will be asking you how you treated folks here! & your response will show your bias. Gays have souls too, so do blacks & Browns & red folks. Just like you!

Well, there's not much fairness when a Christian baker won't bake a cake for a gay wedding ,because they don't believe in in it, like when that Christian woman in Kentucky she got in trouble.Or a Christian doctor who gets fired for not performing an abortion, because Christians don't believe in it.What I've seen, they don't "just" want want to do business with them,yes, I've heard some "sweet talk"them to the extent of cozying up to their lifestyles, to "rope them in".It would be like if someone asked me to get a quija board for them ,I would be assisting them in their summoning up wrong spirits.I would do business with them, but I wouldn't make a compromise of my lifestyle with them for the business.

Fast and pray for that bakes who refuses to do his job. Also fast and pray for those gay people because they are living in sin and will end up in hell unless they repent and come to Jesus. Pray for all business people who charge so much for their items and for the jeweler who charges so much on gold rings for weddings. May Jesus save their souls.

Be honest in dealing with people. Make your business a place where Jesus is running. Lost souls will come to know Him when you act and live Gods word.

Right, but as long as we don't compromise our principals for them. Like if a Christian singer is asked to sing and entertain at a gay wedding,and it involves congradulating the gay couple, and being happy for their gay union, we have to not cross the line between loving sinners and compromising with them.
