David and Jonathan were friends; they were soul mates. Jonathan loved David as himself and David’s love for Jonathan was wonderful and passing the love of women. But does this mean, that David and Jonathan were gay and had homosexual feelings for each other? What does the Bible say about the relationship between David and Jonathan, were David and Jonathan lovers?
homosexualita
Before we discuss this matter, let’s look at homosexuality. homosexualita (and homosexual feelings) is caused by a spirit of sexual lust and perversity. When a spirit of lust and perversity is active in the spiritual realm it becomes visible in the natural realm in the lives of people. One of the carnal results of a spirit of lust and perversity is homosexuality. Pamätajte, that everything that happens in the spiritual realm becomes visible in the natural realm. When homosexual feelings and lust control a person, you know that an unclean spirit of lust and perversity is active in the spiritual realm.
When a person gives in to these lusts and homosexual feelings, this spirit of sexual lust and perversity shall control the person’s life and shall reign in the spiritual realm. This spirit shall not only control the person but shall affect and try to enter other lives as well.
The more people give into homosexual feelings, the more power will be given to this unclean evil spirit, and the more people become affected and controlled by this spirit.
It’s no wonder that we see an increase in homosexuality worldwide. More and more people come out for their homosexuality, bisexuality, or transgender.
This spirit of lust and perversity controls many lives, including their minds. Z dôvodu, že, many relationships in the Bible are interpreted sexually and perversely, including the relationship between David and Jonathan. But only a perverse mind will change Godly relationships in the Bible into perverse sexual relationships.
A spirit of lust becomes visible in the natural realm
through speech and actions
As discussed in a previous blog post, Čo hovorí Biblia o homosexualite“, when a spirit of sexual lust and perversity controls the mind of a person it becomes visible in the natural realm through a person’s life; through his speech and works.
Look at the way many gay people communicate. Veľa krát, their speech contains sexual remarks, sexual jokes, or words with a hidden sexual meaning. Look at the gay pride, gay magazines, gay musicals, gay movies, television programs or movies that involve homosexuality, the music industry, the fashion industry, atď. It is all erotic and revolves around sex.
A spirit of sexual lust and perversity controls their lives and that’s why sex controls their mind and their lives. Everything revolves around sex. Ale teraz, let’s have a look at David and Jonathan’s friendship and whether David and Jonathan were gay.
The soul of Jonathan was knit with David’s soul
A stalo sa, when he had made an end of speaking unto Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul (1 Samuel 18:1)
Jonathan feared the Lord. During a battle with the Philistines, Jonathan trusted in the Lord and believed that God would deliver the Philistines into his hands. Therefore Jonathan left his father and his army, a he went with his armor-bearer to the camp of the Philistines. Jonathan and his armor-bearer went in faith and God indeed delivered the Philistines into his hands.
David also feared the Lord and walked in His will. When Jonathan saw David, Jonathan’s soul was knit with the soul of David. Jonathan loved David as his own soul. He had found a soul mate.
We read that Jonathan’s soul was knit with the soul of David and not his body. Jonathan’s love for David was a friendly brotherly and holy love.
The covenant between David and Jonathan
When Jonathan went with David into the field, Jonathan made a covenant with David and he involved God. Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, because Jonathan loved David as his own soul; as himself.
Jonathan gave David his robe and his garments (his armor (1 Samuel 18:3-4). This was a confirmation and a prophetic symbol that the kingship of Saul would not pass on to his son Jonathan, but to David. This has nothing to do with sex, but it has everything to do with brotherly unselfish love.
But if you are controlled by a perverse spirit of sexual lust, then you can indeed interpret this in a perverse unclean manner.
When Jonathan and David said goodbye, they cried and kissed each other (1 Samuel 20:41). Their kiss was a normal brotherly kiss and not an erotic kiss. It was very normal when two men kissed each other.
Look at Isaac, Laban and Esau, who kissed Jacob. Aaron, who kissed Moses. Look at Samuel, who kissed Saul. Absalom, who kissed everyone, who came to him (2 Samuel 15:5). David kissed Barzillai (2 Samuel 19:39). Jude kissed Jesus. The elders fell on Paul’s neck and kissed him (aktov 20:37).
Jonathan loved David as himself
Milovať budeš svojho blížneho ako seba samého (Marka 12:31)
Jonathan loved David as a brother, as his own flesh and blood. He loved David as himself. Didn’t Jesus also give us the commandment, to love our neighbor as ourselves?
Does this mean, that we should have sexual relationships with our neighbors? Práve naopak!
You can meet someone of the same gender, with whom you have a spiritual connection. Someone whom you consider your soul mate. You love that person as your own brother or sister and you will share a lot of things. Sometimes even more than with your own spouse. But does that mean that you have a sexual relationship with that person? Nie, you are just each other’s soul mate and love each other as a brother or sister. It has nothing to do with homosexual feelings or sex.
David’s love for Jonathan was wonderful,
passing the love of women
When David lamented, with his lamentation over Saul and Jonathan, who were both killed during a battle, he said:“ I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan: very pleasant hast thou been unto me: thy love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women”.
Takže, this should be the proof, according to homosexuals, that David was gay and Jonathan was gay and that David had a homosexual relationship with Jonathan. But that’s a big lie! Because if that was true, then David would also have a homosexual relationship with Saul. Since it is also written: Saul and Jonathan were lovely and pleasant in their lives,
David’s love for Jonathan was a godly unselfish brotherly love, that was above the love he had for women. There was nothing unclean about this brotherly love. Only a sexual perverse and reprobate mind can turn this into something perverse, sexuálne, and unclean.
If David would have been gay, shouldn’t David had the same love for Jonathan as David had for women? But that wasn’t the case. David’s brotherly love for Jonathan went above the (sexuálne) love for women. It was another kind of love, that wasn’t based on carnal sexual lusts, (homosexuál) pocity, a túžby. It was an unselfish brotherly love of the soul
Boli David a Jonathan gayovia?
Would Jonathan have a son if he was gay?
Jonathan had a son, who was paralyzed; Mephibosheth. Therefore we can conclude that Jonathan also had a wife, with whom he was intimate.
David had many women
David had many women, like i.e. Abigail, Ahinoam, Maacah, Haggith, Abital, Eglah (2 Samuel 3:2-5), Michal (2 Samuel 3:13-14), and Bathsheba (2 Samuel 5:13).
If David was gay, do you think that he would have made any effort to get his wife Michal, Saul’s daughter, back? Would David have married Michal, Jonathan’s sister, and be intimate with her, if David would have had a sexual relationship with Jonathan?
Would David have feelings of lust for Bathsheba,
if David was gay?
If David was indeed gay, would he have had sexual feelings of lust for Bathsheba? Since he was physically attracted to her because he laid with her? When someone is gay, then the person has no sexual feelings of lust for someone of the opposite gender, but only for his own gender.
Therefore if David was a homosexual, David wouldn’t lust after Bathsheba. He only would have looked from his roof, but wouldn’t have done anything. Will the next statement and lie be, that David was a bi-sexual?
If David was gay, wouldn’t God have punished David?
God punished David because David had despised the word of the Lord and did evil in His eyes. David had killed Uriah, by the sword of the Ammonites, and had taken Uriah’s wife and made her his own. This behavior was an abomination to God and that’s why God sent the prophet Nathan to David. Nathan confronted David with the terrible thing he had done.
When David ľutoval, his sin was forgiven and David was not put to death. Avšak, because of what David had done and because David had despised the Lord, David’s son would die and the sword would never depart from David’s house. The Lord would raise up evil against David in his own house and God would take David’s wives before his eyes and give them to his neighbor. And that’s exactly what happened.
If God punished David for this deed, wouldn’t God have punished David if David had a homosexual relationship with Jonathan? Wouldn’t God have sentenced David to death according to the law? Since God is very clear in His Word and does according to what He has commanded. Je to napísané:
Nebudeš klamať s ľudstvom, ako so ženou: je to ohavnosť (Levitikus 18:22)
V žiadnej z týchto vecí sa nepoškvrňujte: lebo v tom všetkom sú poškvrnené národy, ktoré ja vyháňam spred teba: A zem je poškvrnená: preto navštevujem jeho neprávosť na ňom, a sama zem vyvracia svojich obyvateľov. Budete teda ostríhať moje ustanovenia a moje súdy, a nedopustí sa žiadnej z týchto ohavností; ani nikto z vášho vlastného národa, ani cudzinca, ktorý sa zdržiava medzi vami: (Pre všetky tieto ohavnosti sa dopustili mužovia zeme, ktoré boli pred vami, a zem je poškvrnená;) Že zem nevyháňa aj vás, keď to poškvrňujete, ako to chrlilo národy, ktoré boli pred vami.
Lebo ktokoľvek sa dopustí niektorej z týchto ohavností, aj duše, ktoré ich páchajú, budú vyťaté zo svojho ľudu. Preto budete zachovávať moje ustanovenie, aby ste sa nedopustili žiadnej z týchto ohavných obyčají, ktoré boli spáchané pred vami, a aby ste sa v ňom nepoškvrňovali: Ja som Pán, tvoj Boh (Levitikus 18:24-30)
Ak aj človek klame s ľudstvom, ako leží so ženou, obaja spáchali ohavnosť: určite budú usmrtení; ich krv bude na nich (Levitikus 20:13)
Z dcér Izraelových nebude žiadna smilnica, ani sodomita zo synov Izraela (Deuteronomium 23:17)
Do God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit approve of homosexuality?
Homosexuality was and still is an abomination to God. If it is an abomination to God, it is also an abomination to Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. Because Jesus is the Word, who became flesh. Jesus Christ came to do the will of God and gave His life for His will.
Ja sám od seba nemôžem nič urobiť: ako počujem, Súdim: a môj úsudok je spravodlivý; pretože nehľadám svoju vlastnú vôľu, ale vôľa Otca, ktorý ma poslal (John 5:30)
For I came down from heaven, not to do Mine own will, but the will of Him that sent Me (John 6:38)
I speak that which I have seen with My Father (John 8:38)
The acceptance of homosexuality in church originates from a reprobate mind
Fakt, that we live in a New Covenant, doesn’t mean that God’s will has changed. God’s Word stands forever and will never change (Prečítajte si tiež: God’s Word is settled forever).
After the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit testified, through the apostles, that homosexuality and being gay is a sin. The acceptance of homosexuality derives from zavrhnutá myseľ, as we read in the first chapter of the Book of Romans. Since they had rejected God and His Word and didn’t believe and accept His truth, God had given them up to vile affections. And this is still happening today.
Preto ich Boh vydal do ohavných náklonností: pretože aj ich ženy zmenili prirodzené používanie na také, ktoré je proti prírode: A podobne aj muži, ponechanie prirodzeného používania ženy, horeli vo svojej žiadostivosti jeden k druhému; muži s mužmi, ktorí robia to, čo je neslušné, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. A aj keď sa im nepáčilo zachovávať Boha vo svojom poznaní, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, robiť veci, ktoré nie sú pohodlné (Rimanom 1:26-28)
Slovo hovorí, that homosexuals will not inherit the Kingdom of God
Neviete, že nespravodliví nebudú dedičmi kráľovstva Božieho? Nenechajte sa oklamať: ani smilníci, ani modloslužobníci, ani cudzoložníci, ani zženštilý, ani zneužívatelia seba s ľudstvom, Ani zlodeji, ani žiadostivý, ani opilci, ani zlodeji, ani vydierači, zdedia kráľovstvo Božie. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God (1 Korinťanom 6:9-11)
The Word of God remains the truth
People can change, twist and interpret the Word from their carnal mind, out of their own knowledge, zistenia, názory, pocity, emócie, and experience(s), which are often inspired by the evil spirits of darkness and approve homosexuality. Avšak, it doesn’t change a thing about the truth. Because the truth is, that for God, Ježiš, a Ducha Svätého, homosexuality is an abomination and will always remain an abomination. Nothing and nobody can change that.
Bože, Ježiš Kristus; slovo, and the Holy Spirit will never approve of homosexuality because They can’t have communion with the works of darkness; hriech.
Jesus Christ has dealt with the sin problem, so that everyone, ktorý v Neho verí, and becomes znovu narodený a follows Him, shall be redeemed from the sin nature (Adamic nature) and shall rule over his or her flesh and over sin.
If Jesus had to come to earth to destroy the works of the devil, then why should Jesus now approve the works of the devil?
Homosexuality is and remains a sin. A znovuzrodený veriaci shall discern the spirits, and shall not be entangled with the spirits of darkness. Namiesto toho, a born-again believer shall rule and have dominion over the powers and spirits of darkness, including a spirit of lust and perversity.
Isn’t it weird, that all the scriptures in the Bible about homosexuality are being rejected and that Godly and holy relationships in the Bible are being perverted into sexual relationships? Prečo je to tak??
Because they are blinded for the truth and they are not willing to accept the truth. Because the truth confronts them with their behavior; their sin and that’s not what they want. They don’t want to die to their flesh, but they want to keep walking after the flesh and feed their lusts and desires. That’s why they change and adjust the Word of God to their (homosexuál) pocity, žiadostivosti, a túžby.
But the Word will always remain the truth and shall eventually judge every person according to his or her works (John 12:48, 1 Peter 4:5, Zjavenie 20:12, 15). The Word is very clear and there is not an excuse, for no one!
