Don’t discriminate, Christians told

CHRISTIANS HAVE BEEN told not to use violence, harassment or discrimination against lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgender (LGBT) people.

The message came from Pastor Ricardo Selman, family ministries director of the East Caribbean Conference of Seventh Day Adventists during a four-hour meeting yesterday at the Lloyd Erskine Sandiford Centre.

Pastor Selman said that was not the way God wanted his people to deal with sin and sinners. According to Selman, the church must always take a stand against sin without condemning the sinner.

The topic of the meeting was Human Sexuality, Scripture, Sex & Society.

Selman said the purpose of the meeting was not to condemn any particular group but to bring to the surface the church’s position on lesbianism and homosexuality. (TY)
