For centuries, Christianity has been twisted into a tool for control—used to oppress, shame, and manipulate rather than uplift and liberate. But when you strip away the institutional dogma, the mistranslations, and the deliberate erasures, a very different truth emerges:


Jesus was not a politician. He was not a white, blue-eyed, judgmental lawmaker. He was a radical force of love, inclusion, and rebellion.


And if modern churches had been honest about history, they would have told you that many biblical figures—including Jesus himself—show evidence of queerness, bisexuality, and deep same-sex relationships.


So why has Christianity been rewritten to erase LGBTQ+ identities? Why do churches push fear instead of faith? The answer is simple: Power. Control. And the fear of losing both.


It’s time to reclaim the truth.


Faith vs. Fear: The Christianity They Don’t Want You to Know


Christianity was never meant to be about blind obedience to church leaders, governments, or religious elites. Yet, over time, we’ve seen two very different types of Christians emerge:


1️⃣ Those who follow God through love, wisdom, and personal connection.

2️⃣ Those who follow institutions, worship religious leaders, and use the Bible as a weapon.


Jesus never taught fear. He never built a megachurch, funded political campaigns, or condemned people for their identity. Instead, he stood against corrupt religious leaders, embraced outcasts, and challenged oppressive systems.


📖 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You shut the door of the kingdom of heaven in people’s faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let those enter who are trying to.” — Matthew 23:13


Jesus spent his time with prostitutes, the poor, the sick, and the unwanted. He wasn’t about keeping the rich in power or enforcing religious law. In fact, he broke religious law when it got in the way of love.


So why do modern churches act like he was the CEO of Christianity Inc.?

Because a faith based on freedom and love is uncontrollable. And that terrifies those who thrive on power.


Gay Jesus? Queer Biblical Figures? The Truth They Erased


Many people lose their minds at the idea of a queer Jesus—but let’s be real:


🔥 Jesus never married.

🔥 He surrounded himself with men and had a deeply intimate relationship with “the disciple whom he loved.”

🔥 He challenged gender roles, refused to conform, and preached a love that defied all boundaries.


Does that make him “gay”? Not necessarily. But it does mean that his story is far more complex than the rigid, heteronormative version the church sells today.


And he wasn’t the only biblical figure with queer-coded relationships.


1. David & Jonathan – A Love Beyond Friendship


📖 “Jonathan made a covenant with David, because he loved him as himself.” – 1 Samuel 18:3


📖 “Your love for me was wonderful, more wonderful than that of women.” – 2 Samuel 1:26


🔥 What Makes This Relationship Unique?


• Jonathan stripped off his robe and weapons for David, an act of deep symbolic intimacy.


• Their souls were “knit together”, a phrase not used for ordinary friendships.


• David openly wept for Jonathan’s death, saying his love was greater than any love he had for women.


⚡ How It Was Erased: Later interpretations downplayed their relationship, calling it a “brotherly bond”—even though the Bible itself describes their love in romantic terms.


2. Ruth & Naomi – The Vows of a Same-Sex Covenant


📖 “Where you go, I will go, and where you stay, I will stay. Your people will be my people, and your God my God.” – Ruth 1:16


🔥 Why This Sounds Like a Same-Sex Marriage Vow:


• The language used here mirrors ancient Hebrew marriage vows more than casual friendship.


• Ruth binds herself to Naomi for life, despite having no obligation to stay after her husband’s death.


⚡ How It Was Erased: Scholars reframed their bond as “loyalty” between family members, even though heterosexual marriages in the Bible rarely show this level of devotion.


3. The Roman Centurion & His “Beloved Servant” (Matthew 8:5-13, Luke 7:1-10)


📖 “Lord, my servant lies at home paralyzed, suffering terribly.”


🔥 The Key Detail Most People Miss:


• The Greek word for “servant” used here is “pais,” which in Roman culture often referred to a young male lover.


• The Centurion is desperate to save him, showing an unusual level of emotional attachment.


• Jesus heals the servant without hesitation, praising the Centurion’s faith.

⚡ How It Was Erased: Later translations replaced “pais” with “servant,” stripping away any romantic implications.


The Mistranslation That Created “Christian Homophobia


🚨 The word “homosexual” wasn’t in the Bible until 1946.

🚨 Sodom and Gomorrah was about violence, not being gay.

🚨 The real “sin” was exploitation and temple prostitution—not loving same-sex relationships.


When people claim “the Bible says homosexuality is a sin,” they’re actually referring to mistranslated words that were later manipulated to fit anti-LGBTQ+ agendas.


📖 1 Corinthians 6:9 and 1 Timothy 1:10 contain the words “arsenokoitai” and “malakoi”—but these Greek terms had nothing to do with homosexuality.


• “Arsenokoitai” likely referred to exploitation, prostitution, or abuse.

• “Malakoi” meant “soft” or “weak-willed,” not “gay.”


Yet, in 1946, English translators falsely inserted the word “homosexual” into the text, permanently altering how people interpreted these passages.


🚨 Homophobia was added to Christianity. It was never there to begin with.


True Christianity Means Standing Against Religious Corruption


It’s time for real Christians to stand up against the weaponization of their faith. Christianity should be about:


❤️ Loving others, even those different from you.

💡 Seeking wisdom, not blind obedience.

🕊 Creating peace, not division.

💪 Standing against those who use faith as a tool for hate and power.

Christianity isn’t about keeping governments powerful, protecting the wealthy, or judging others. It’s about connecting to love, truth, and God.


Do You Follow God or the Church That Erased Him?


The real question isn’t “Is Jesus gay?”


The real question is “Why are Christians so afraid to admit that their version of history has been rewritten?”


Do you follow God, or do you follow the institution that claims to represent Him?


Because the difference is everything.
