The Christian conservative Family
Research Council (FRC) on Thursday asked its members to pray for God
to stop LGBT Pride Month.
FRC prayer director Pierre Bynum noted
that numerous Gay Pride events will take place on the same day as
FRC's Call2Fall prayer event, then called on members to pray for God
to “stop the advance of this official celebration of sin.”
“On Call2Fall Sunday, June 29th, the
very day believers and churches across America will fall to their
knees to pray for our nation, those who self-identify as homosexuals
will be celebrating 'LGBT Pride Day,' a grand finale for June's
observance of 'LGBT Pride Month.' President Obama will announce the
observance and the White House, federal agencies, the Pentagon, many
state agencies, many businesses and likeminded organizations across
America will join the celebration,” Bynum
wrote.
“Only heaven knows exactly how this
brazen departure from the moral law of God will impact our nation.
But we are called to intercede with an Almighty God.”
He added: “May the Lord hear our
intercessions [and] stop the advance of this official celebration of
sin! (Gen 20:18-23; Rom 1:16-32; 3:10 ff; Heb 13:4; Jude 7, 21-25)”
