In June, the radical left celebrates the LGBTQ+ lifestyle with something known as ‘Pride Month’. Last week, President Joe Biden welcomed hundreds to the White House for a pride celebration. The LGBTQ+ agenda is out to destroy the Judeo-Christian worldview because that is the biggest impediment for the ultimate domination of its worldview. On this episode of The City of God Podcast, Rob and John discuss how pride month comes in direct conflict with a Biblical understanding of sex and gender, and how this movement isn’t about equal rights, but rather forcing everyone to bow the knee and submit to their ideology.

We now live in a Wikipedia society, where anyone can change the meaning of a word to satisfy a goal. Today, we’re seeing words being co-opted in order to deceive the un-informed or uneducated, and in order to push a false narrative. LGBTQ activists in particular often label anyone who has a dissenting opinion as a 'hater'. On this episode of The City of God Podcast, we discuss the redefinition of the world hate, and how many Christians are labeled bigots and haters for simply holding to a Biblical worldview.
