Indiana church where boy sang “Ain’t no homos gonna make it to Heaven” says it doesn’t condone or practice hate
It seems the Apostolic Truth Tabernacle in Greensburg, Indiana has a different definition of hate than I do.
This is the church that has come under fire since a video showing a 3-year-old boy singing an anti-gay song that includes the lyrics ‘Ain’t no homos gonna make it to Heaven’ went viral earlier this week.
As of Friday, the video had been viewed by more than 500,000 people on YouTube.
It shows Pastor Jeff Sangl and his congregation cheering wildly after the performance.
Now the church has tried to quell the uproar by posting the following message on its website: ‘The Pastor and members of Apostolic Truth Tabernacle do not condone, teach, or practice hate of any person for any reason. We believe and hope that every person can find true Bible salvation and the mercy and grace of God in their lives.’
It also states: ‘We are a strong advocate of the family unit according to the teachings and precepts found in the Holy Bible. We believe the Holy Bible is the Divinely-inspired Word of God and we will continue to uphold and preach that which is found in scripture.’
Uh, okay.
Anybody buy that?
Here is the video once again:

They condone slavery, and treating their wives as chattle? Great way to raise children.
