Who Are We

Love1another is a gathering of Christians and many of us are heterosexual. Most of us came to question the church's position on homosexuality after we came to know a gay Christian personally. Some of us have relatives, some friends, but all of us came to believe that these people indeed are Christians and that God loves them dearly.

We are saddened that Scripture is used to exclude homosexuals from the church. We are concerned that many churches reject gays because of habit ("That's what I was always taught?") or because of prejudice. Many people don't consider change in this area because they don't know a gay person, therefore they exclude them based on how they may be represented by the media.

It seems very un-Christ-like to us to reject these believers, yet churches have done it for years. Within the gay community, it is common knowledge that Christians hate gays, a reality I'm sure saddens God. We aren't know for our love... we're known for our hate.

Jesus never said anything about homosexuality in the Bible. He did however, call us to love, and we have chosen that path.
