Gay Christian 101

Gay Christian 101 explains the "clobber passages" in clear, understandable language, giving from 3 to 18 alternative interpretations of each clobber passage.

Gay Christian 101 carefully presents historical evidence proving that the alleged "anti-gay verses" were intended to prohibit shrine prostitution (fertility goddess worship), not committed, faithful, noncultic gay relationships which are within the Biblical moral frame work.

Comments From Readers Of Gay Christian 101

Gay and Lesbian Christians are a wonderful part of God's Creative Plan. God loves us, John 3:15-16, and according to Jesus, God intends some of His children to be born gay and lesbian, Matthew 19:12.
The Ethiopian Eunuch

Gay people are not the result of a sinful personal choice nor are we the result of the fall of Adam. As the story of the Ethiopian Eunuch demonstrates, Gay-Lesbian-Bisexual-Transgendered people are as much a part of God’s Redemptive plan as everyone else.

As you explore the helpful resources on this website, remember that the God of the Bible loves you so much that He shed His blood and died to pay for your sins! Never for a moment are you out of His thoughts.
Michelangelo's David

God stepped out of eternity into time, in the person of Jesus Christ, to die for your sins and arise from the dead! Because Jesus lives, you can be saved and live a joyful, Spirit-filled life.

God and the Bible are not enemies of gays and lesbians.

As a Bible believing gay Christian, I already know this. As you explore the resources on GayChristian101.com you will learn this wonderful truth.

“God reaches out in amazing love to every gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered person.”

You did not find this gay Christian website by accident.

God led you here because the information you're about to read can dramatically help you or someone you love.



The Thinker - It pays to think things through.


You are an intelligent individual. You think about your beliefs because you want to live an authentic life.



You will be amazed at how many thoughtful, rational, scriptural answers you'll find here, which make sense and help you reconcile being both gay and Christian.

The wonderful God we serve does have answers for many of your tough questions, particularly questions about reconciling the fact that you are authentically gay and authentically Christian.

Wise Christians understand that getting answers to difficult questions requires Bible study, prayer, a faithful approach to scripture and practical application of life experience.

God gives us principles in scripture to guide our lives. He expects us to use the mind He gave us to think through the possible answers and arrive at a decision based on principle.

Our Bible believing, Jesus following, gay affirming resources will help you grapple with the questions and grow in grace and knowledge of God. We encourage you to be like the Berean Christians who,

“searched the scriptures daily whether those things were so.” Acts 17:11.

God loves you with an everlasting love!

Life is an adventure. God wants to share the adventure with you, if you will let Him. Will you make the Lord Jesus welcome in your life today?

"Taste and see that the Lord is good." Psalm 34:8
