What gives you hope?

dkamin — Mon, 11 Jul 2011 18:23:40 +0000

“Through it all, as low as I’ve gotten and the sins I’ve committed for so long, I often times turn to the account in the Bible where Jesus is being crucified and the thief on the cross next to him. And moments before his death he’s assured, he repents and he’s assured by Jesus that today he’ll be with him in paradise. I think about the things I’ve done. That gives me great hope."

How supportive is your own congregation?

dkamin — Mon, 11 Jul 2011 18:22:02 +0000

“My church home has been phenomenal. I can’t say enough good about the people. They’ve just been so caring and loving through all the continued struggles that I’ve had with my health. I would never be at a loss for anything. The pastors, the staff, the first to last person in that congregation have been just terrific.”

What sections of scripture give you strength?

dkamin — Mon, 11 Jul 2011 18:20:37 +0000

“Philippians 4:13, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I turn to that passage on a daily basis. I actually have it beside by bed. And where Paul talks in Corinthians about homosexuality – that’s the way people were, but you were washed of that. That really speaks to me on a particular level.

Why not just join a church that accepts homosexuals as they are?

dkamin — Mon, 11 Jul 2011 18:18:39 +0000

â€œThere are definitely a lot of churches out there that are like that. When I was embracing the gay lifestyle I attended several of them. Theyâ€™re sort of the â€œfeel-goodâ€ churches where people go to hear what they want to hear. But these churches are doing an immense disservice and theyâ€™re damaging a lot of people. Weâ€™re talking about peopleâ€™s eternal well being.

Why not just give in to your feelings?

dkamin — Mon, 11 Jul 2011 18:17:04 +0000

“We know from God’s word they’re sinful. So many people, myself included, for a while I wanted to do what felt right. But that’s not God’s will. As a Christian, we are to follow God’s way, not our way."

Does being a Christian mean all your struggles in life are over?

dkamin — Mon, 11 Jul 2011 18:15:26 +0000

â€œIt definitely doesnâ€™t mean your struggles in life are over. Far from it. As far as strugglers go, Iâ€™m probably close to the top half of the list. Being diagnosed with AIDS and HIV a number of years ago, Iâ€™ve had a life-long struggle with homosexuality, actually giving in to the gay lifestyle for a while, before the Lord led me back out of that.

If you die tonight, do you know where you will spend eternity?

dkamin — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 16:03:32 +0000

If I were to die tonight, I know that I would spend eternity with God in heaven without question. I know that because I understand his Word when it comes to salvation and the promise that Jesus has given to all of us, that faith in him, true faith in him, leads us to salvation, and lead us to that place. I mean, thereâ€™s just no question. You know, once upon a time did I have my doubts, yeah.

What do you appreciate about this church body?

dkamin — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 16:01:59 +0000

I attended multiple denominations. And saw many different messages. And I can tell you that sets this denomination apart, what sets this group of people apart is they really understand salvation. They understand what it means to be saved. They understand how God works his salvation. They understand how to preach that message of salvation.

How do you know the Bible is true?

dkamin — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 16:00:24 +0000

When you read his word and you understand his heart for you, and you see what he’s done for you, you see that he sent his son to die for you, in the most gruesome of ways. And you begin to understand that the Bible is his love story for us. And you come to the realization that you can do nothing but believe in the truth of the Bible - that there’s no alternative.

What has been your biggest struggle?

dkamin — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 15:58:48 +0000

For me it really came down to, I believe the Bible is real or not. Is what God says real or not? Do I trust who God is? Do I trust what he says? And, it came down to submitting to him. And, submitting to his word and submitting to his will.
