God Gave Them Up l Voddie Baucham 

Keep preaching the truth sir. Its great to listen what God truth is saying. The real truth. God bless u voddie

I was living as a homosexual for 10 years. When i was 25 (5years ago) Jesus revealed himself to me through a series of events. I can honestly say that i was never aware of there even being a God, but when i knew Jesus, it changed everything. He has given me a will to live, and a purpose in life. Hallelujah!

It's true. I was healed 2 weeks ago when I surrendered to Jesus. I am not the same person I was for I now know the love that Jesus has given me, and all of us. He saved me. I thought I could save me, and when I couldn't possibly accomplish that, I had fallen into despair. Jesus scooped me up from my storm and showed me His love and His way. He showed me that I can overcome anything, so long as I follow Him and heed His words! Walk with Him and you shall be saved! God promises you, seek God and you will find him. God promises that. The choice of acceptance and surrender is yours.

Wow. And I thought I was being compassionate by only being understanding and loving. Of course I know it’s sinful to commit homosexual acts. I hold no condemnation for those who commit homosexual acts, as I know judgement in that way is only for God. But I bought the lie that they were happy with their lifestyle, as portrayed by media (TV, movies, commercials, etc). I bought the lie that their sin did not bring the same hurt and devastation as any other din. I am not being compassionate by solely showing love, I must speak truth to truly show compassion. Otherwise, I am enabling their destruction. I’ve spoken to many that I have arrested (I’m law enforcement) of God’s love and forgiveness and of their great worth. Praise God that He led me to speak to those He wanted me to. Almost every time I shared we parted as friends, an appreciation of each other. It was obvious to me that their paths led to destruction. It’s harder to see the paths of those who are homosexuals loving one another as just a destructive path. Much like when people post on Facebook; always showing happiness, those in homosexual relationships must be under even greater pressure to present as happy couples. Pastor Voddie, you are a modern day prophet. Stay strong, brother, I fear these are the last days and Satan’s attacks will be like they never have before to take us Christians down.

I used to identify as homosexual and was deep in this horrendous sin. By the grace of God I’ve been saved! It’s a daily struggle and I constantly fight with myself to not even think about other females that way. I look back on it and I HATE how I believed the lie.

Praise God! I was on heroin for 11 years until 2 years ago. Same thing for me. He dragged me kicking and screaming through a series of circumstances. I never got arrested but I got an infection in my blood and I almost died. Before that there were like 10 clinical overdoses throughout my career as a junkie. The Puritans would say He made a proverb out of me. I am a walking example of irresistible Grace. I had absolutely no intention of stopping what I was doing, but little did I know I was not in charge. Next Sunday I will be addressing the men at a homeless mission who are a lot like I was. Lost and dead Men. Praise God, the word of the Lord stands forever 🙏

As someone who was a homosexual, God had His hand on me the whole time. He led me out. I rejected every "natural theory" the world came up with. I knew it was a fleshly passion I knew I would never marry a woman because of my very deep respect and understanding of the depth of marriage. I had an understanding that when I was a homosexual I loved but not to the depth that I would and could if I were to do things in the natural order. It gets intertwined in your thoughts and heart and feelings and emotions. At some point I finally had been celebate for 7 years praying and staying away from homosexuality and just reading my Bible. After 8 years celebate I was baptized, and after 9 years celebate I was delivered through prayer. May I add that as each spirit connected to the total spirit of homosexuality came out of me; each spirit cried and said no please don't make me leave and I don't want to leave... I had been preparing for that my whole life to be baptized and delivered from that sin that had afflicted me since age 6. Over 25 years i was afflicted. I am now engaged and am set to be married to my husband to be. I love YHWH and His principles. I love Him because He loved me first. For Him to keep His hand on me the way He did and does and then gift me at each milestone with so much. I don't need to be convinced of any of this I lived it and came out. I had no one to help me except 2 men baptized me Bob and Ned and the woman I never met prayed and wrote me a deliverance prayer, Eddie. Everyone else rejected me and judged me. Now I am still rejected and judged by the same people even when I speak the good news but now I know I have God's blessing. homosexuals and heterosexuals rejected me before and after i was delivered. Homosexuals because they said i sold out lmbooo smh and heterosexuals because they think my being delivered is an act smh. Now when people ask me what I think of them wanting to be with the same sex I testify and encourage them to not go down that road. Isnt that something? no matter what, many can hurt you with their hate in the name of Christianity or God but only few christians are actually effective at planting and watering. Most are not intentional and or they dont focus on their duty. An arm on the body does not try and walk. I often say out of the 100s of people who judged me and rejected me, only 3 were in the Spirit of God and effective. Now when I do things for the Kingdom of God, I am now useful and effective because I get right to the heart of their needs, it's short, exact, loving, intentional, and then it's time for me to keep moving forward. Could be a Word could be a prayer could be money or a combination. Be encouraged my brothers and sisters. The Lord will be returning in an even shorter while. Most will not see it coming but Israel is eagerly awaiting His return. May Yah grant all of us the grace to be eagerly awaiting His Sons return for His bride. May He grant us peace and love and to walk and rest and run in The Ruach Ha Kadesh, that we all have and had worked out our salvation with fear and trembling (yes even you who have not sinned in the abominable ways I have) May He bless us and keep us forever. May His light shine upon us and we be found with great faith oil in our lamps and His law written upon our hearts. May we all die to self and be lovers of good and doers of the Word. Glory be to the most high YHWH in the name of Yahusha. (If you havnt been led to call these names (( YHWH -God Yahusha - son of God and savior and Ruach Ha Kadesh - Holy Spirit)) don't worry about semantics just say amen lol) amen!!! If you learn anything feom my written small testimony choose Christ and be useful and effective please. After you repent and turn away from your sin walk in that favor and dont dwell on what you have done, for that is the gift of salvation through The Lord and the good news! Find your gift and job in the body of Christ and do just that. Remember don't try and stand up as if you were a foot if you are a finger.

One of the greatest preachers of our time

My younger brother has been caught up in this lifestyle and has gone even further into the trans movement. He’s unreachable because he’s cut most of us off. My heart breaks for the pain he must be feeling because I know the pain and anguish I felt when I too could not break away from alcoholism. The loneliness, the pain of knowing each drink was like driving another nail into our beloved Savior. It was pure agony. He is not a believer and I have no way to share the gospel with him but I will pray even harder for him after listening to this in the hope the he can one day see he isn’t wrong as he was born and for his life to be redeemed 🙏

Another great sermon. This hit home for me. Pray for my daughter please.

No disclaimer necessary. It's God's Word. Just preach it. Great sermon.

I wasn’t expecting to cry listening today but I was so moved by the story of the girl on campus that I cried

I was delivered from homosexualiy June 10,1999, and I saw the path that God had for me was so much more. 🙏

Dr. Baucham, you are a man of integrity. I appreciate you,

Just found Voddie, amazing sermon.

That was me for almost 40yrs I lived as homosexaul and many other devious acts. God saved me 12 yrs ago I am now 60yrs old and Praise His mercy love and grave for saving me from hell.

A lot of people, especially those in the LGBQT community will say “Christian’s hate us” and the how “Christians preach hate”

So good on so many levels. Voddie you are killin your assignments. Thank you preaching what the world needs to feel.

Finally, a true teacher of the word of God. Thank you Lord.

‘Don’t you dare believe your better!’
