In today's testimony we are going to talk about the fact that the majority of LGBTQ + members in the USA were raised as Christians. In some demographics, it is as high as 87% of LGBTQ+ members were raised as Christians. How can that be with the bible clearly warning against homosexuality and sexual immorality? Could this movement be something that was encouraged by Christianity? Or is it more of a response or rebellion to Christianity? Today, we will have Luis Javier Ruiz, who grew up in the church, but stared resenting going to church, and later on in life, he believed he was a homosexual and fell away from his faith. But as life went on, he experienced a horrific moment in his life, where he was in the Orlando Pulse Nightclub shooting, where Omar Mateen, a US Muslim extreme terrorist opened fire and killed 49 people and wounded 53. Luis is going to detail out his life of how he left his childhood faith, came out as homosexual, but then after the pulse shooting, he discovered that Jesus Christ is real. Let's find out what happened. Luis, welcome to the show.
