Cam Newton and Pastor Philip Anthony Mitchell spark a FIERY debate over whether homosexuals can make it to heaven, as Mitchell claims practicing homosexuals won't inherit God's kingdom without repentance, while insisting believers can struggle with homosexual desires for life without sinning, as long as they never act on them. "If a homosexual repents of their sin, places their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, is filled with the Holy Spirit and turns from their sin, that former homosexual will be able to make it to glory... I cannot force them to be heterosexual if they're struggling with the urge. My job is to teach them the scriptures and help them to live a life of holiness before God. They may have that urge for the rest of their life, but if they don't act on it, they don't sin before God... In the scriptures, there are a list of practices in which God says anybody who indulges in these things will not inherit the kingdom of God….Homosexuality is on that list... Our passageway to glory is not morality. It is salvation in the Lord Jesus Christ, and there are former murderers there and former lustful people there. Anything you can name on this earth that is vile, those people are represented in glory because they have confessed their sins”
