A church sermon at the Grace Bible Church on Sunday has set the country talking. Somizi Mhlongo, one of the country's top choreographers voiced his offence on social media. Pastor Ezekiel Mathole of the Grace Bible Church has since been on the responding on behalf of the church saying Grace doesn't discriminate against homosexuality but the church's doctrine supports heterosexuality even though everyone is welcome. Joining us over the phone is Pastor Ezekiel Mathole from the Grace Bible Church. For more news, visit: http://www.sabc.co.za/news

the pastor doesn't want to come out clear

Do not deceive yourself, homosexuality is a repulsive sin. Read 1 Corinthians chapter 6 verse 9 and Romans 1
and you'll see that nowhere in the Bible is homosexuality promoted. -
I'm a Christian and I've thought about this.
Homosexuality is not only unnatural, it is exceedingly disgusting and repulsive and homosexuals will not enter the kingdom of God but will perish in the lake of fire unless they turn to the Savior Jesus Christ.
Homosexuals need to turn to the Lord Jesus, there is forgiveness for all sinners. -
The bible says the truth shall set you free ,now this PASTOR was literally speaking the truth something that can be supported with a scripture.. DEAR BELIEVERS OF CHRIST Before we start miss-interpreting the pastor lets go to scripture... For heavens sake why would one be offended by a scripture ? Ask yourself this why did God burnt Gomorrah AND SODOM ?? DIDN'T HE FIND SUCH BEHAVIOR ??then if you don't find such in the scripture then come to us and say you are offended you will get our full attention

Are preachers now expected to water down the word in order to accommodate people? The constitution is not above the word of God. We must be able to call sin, sin. God loves every person and his ultimate will is that we be saved, transformed into the very image of Christ. fornication, adultery, thievery nor homosexuality does not conform to that image and therefore we are then challenged not by mans opinion but by the word of God to change such behaviors. RSA seriously needs to consider a bill such as that of the "Separation between Church and state" in USA which stops the State from interfering in the affairs of the church.

whether we like it or not, the truth has to be preached, when God created by and He made them male & female not make & male not female & female (Genesis 1 vs 27) the Bible also states that God destroyed Sodom & Gomorrah ( Genesis 19).. The Bible also says come as you are with your sins God will give rest ( Matthew 11 vs 28) so go to church with your sins God will off load your burdens, allow God to use pastors to preach the word of God so that people can get help & repent from doing wrong, don't expect pastors to preach what you want to hear or what you think suits you, allow them to preach the word of God we want to go to heaven!!! let the pastors preach the truth, let those who have ears listen & repent while there's still time! before our Lord Jesus Christ comes back!!! let those who fill offended not come to our churches if they think they'll fill offended!!!

A true new testament bible-believing church is not & should bot be a place for political correctness, and it should not be apologetic for that. A Bible-based church must call out all sin as described in the Bible and should apologise for that.

Come on Leane apologising for preaching the word of God? Hahahaa you people are clueless about God you know too much about rights . listening to worldly people discussing the spiritual things is disgusting and annoying . I wish Mugabe was the president of south Africa so that gays can stay in their own communities maybe opening their churches
-
again the liberal media who is against christians.
-
God speaks and he spoke through his servant these are the end times and there is no time to play church if you are in sin repent and do right with God because judgement day is coming Jesus Christ is coming soon .Homosexuality is a sin an abomination Sodom and Gomorrah was destroyed because of this particular sin.May God help us to stand strong in our faith we will not preach what the people are itching to hear we will not sugar coat his Holy word because someone will be offended.

in south African constitution they have rights not in the bible,why do they feel special and demand apology If you are a man of God preach the word as it is do not owe anyone apology I cant leave church feel offended because pastor was preaching about how sleeping around is sinful knowing gore I sleep around rather as individual will fight that spirit repent ,we must not live contrary to the word of God.What kind of born again Christian are you if you still feel offended by the truth from the bible we go to church for a change ,Yes there shudnt be judgement but correct, forgive and turn away from sin.Jesus said to the woman who committed udeltry" neither I condemn you go and sin no more" My spiritual Father wasn't going to beat around the bush and tell media the truth as it is sin is not suppose to be promoted in a church .and as for those who are offended the man of God was lead by the spirit of the living God so receive the message 1 Thessalonians 5:19-22 1 Thessalonians 5:19-22New King James Version (NKJV)19 Do not quench the Spirit. 20 Do not despise prophecies. 21 Test all things; hold fast what is good. 22 Abstain from every form of evil.

It's interesting how Christians expect the Pastor to speak HATE and condemned people. Grace Bible Church is exactly that, Grace. People, all people need God's love and once they are in God's presence they can receive repentance.
-
I think we need to remind church minister of the thou shal not judge scripture!!!!
-
I feel that Pst. Ezekiel is standing on the fence on this issue he is afraid to put it very clear that God hates homosexuality as it is a sin. God loves his people but hate their sins
-
Nothing wrong with the pastor sin is sin he spoke about many sins why homosexuality is isolated as if the message was only focusing on the subject only
-
a sin is a sin ..... bishop spoke the truth
-
The Bishop was preaching the truth. All his words are coming from God. If God was the one who said those words directly,what will people be saying today? Bishop dag preaches the truth, you like it or not.

Leviticus 18:22 You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination
