Watch Megachurch Pastor’s Creepy ‘Pray the Gay Away’ Event: ‘Somebody Fondled You, Somebody Raped You’ | Alternet

The pastor of popular megachurch in South Carolina told his congregation on Wednesday that homosexuality was caused by demons and ended his sermon by calling gay people to the stage so Jesus could “straighten things out.”

During his monthly “Unite” sermon, Redemption church pastor Ron Carpenter, Jr. addressed the issue of homosexuality for the first time since the U.S. Supreme Court declared that same-sex couples had a constitutional right to marriage.

“It is aligning yourself with the same sin as the father of rebellion, it is an abomination,” Carpenter explained, adding gay people lived shorter lives as a “due penalty” for their sexual orientation.

According to the pastor, adultery and even murder were natural sins of the flesh. But homosexuality was caused by demons in the “spiritual realm.”

What I find extremely dangerous,

“I think with homosexuality, something got planted that wasn’t supposed to be there, somewhere in your bloodline or your family, something got planted,” he insisted. “Something God didn’t want there, something God didn’t intend. And the twist began. And every generation commits the sins greater than their father committed it. For the reason you can dance in the street is because your father had to hide in a closet.”

Why?

Something I wrote back in 2013 concerning my delving into the Genesis 6 giants mythos and its impact:

This demonic angle seems to be the a rally point in common for all proponents of Nephilim Scripted as well as the Dominionist movement; the "us versus them" mentality being woven into the broader subject of spiritual warfare, transhumanism and corrupted DNA.  

But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.   For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,,,(Matt 24:37-38 KJV)

This is a favorite of all Nephilim proponents.  In their minds, Satan is building an army!  We will see hybrids openly manifest in front of us in the coming days ahead, just like, as in the Days of Noah.  What is perverse about the theology is its basis in what is commonly known as the "Serpent Seed Doctrine" or "Demon Seed."  Although not all proponents openly espouse this view, the underlying message is there.

The foundation of this view begins with altering the interpretation of Genesis 6 from man's personal sin to demonic DNA being introduced into the human genome.  Step two, perverting Christ's prophecy in Matthew to fit the Nephilim scenario.  The final step, reinterpreting Genesis 3:14-15 which sets up the battle between the seed of the woman and the seed of Satan.
