Today these sins are seen in the denial of love to lesbians and gays, and the idolatrous presumption that heterosexuality alone embodies the will of God. On the sixth day God saw that all creation was very good, and we rejoice that we are part of that creation. When we read the gospels, we know that Jesus came for all of us. We are members of the body of Christ. Through Integrity , we explore the meaning of salvation in spite of the rejection and misunderstanding we often experience at the hands of both society and the Church.
Integrity is part of the human liberation movement.
There are some who have denounced the Church because they regard it as a source of oppression. This has often been the case, but as members of Integrity , we want to work within our Church to overcome the oppression of lesbians and gays. Sexual orientation is set by the age of five, and is non-elective. One cannot convert. We want the Church and society to appreciate the variety of human existence and help all people to be creative, loving and affirming individuals.
