First, I am a supporter & a signer of the boycott and am thankful that it is having an effect.What I’m really grateful to see, is not that an auto maker is doing poorly in our country but rather the Christians are standing for what is biblically right. If only we were bolder in these areas of immorality, our nation would not be struggling with issues such as homosexuality, abortion, etc. Since the homosexual community makes up less than 2 % of the total population in our country, why do they have the loudest voice. Why are Christians being persecuted for expressing their first amendment rights in society when they speak out against immorality. The spiritual heritage of this nation was founded in Christianity and the moral standard revealed in the Holy Bible is what we believe to be true. God makes it very clear that homosexuality is a sin and it is our duty as Christians to make a clear & firm stand against it. That’s why the boycott is in place & I believe the decline of Ford’s profit is a direct result. For those that are neutral or either support homosexuality, the Christians are not saying we hate those involved in it, but rather the sin itself. If anybody has ever read the bible, the clear message is one of love & forgiveness for sinners who have a repentant heart & turn to Jesus Christ for forgiveness of their sins. It’s not the people that are hated, but rather the sinful lifestyle that they are involved in & I’m thankful to see the movement against it and look forward, as well as continue to pray, that God will give His people the strength & courage to allow their voice to be heard as they stand for God’s moral standard for our lives.
