Scripture forbids sexual intimacy between members of the same sex. The Salvation Army believes, therefore, that Christians whose sexual orientation is primarily or exclusively same-sex are called upon to embrace celibacy as a way of life. There is no scriptural support for same-sex unions as equal to, or as an alternative to, heterosexual marriage.
[The Salvation Army: Position Statements > Homosexuality]
There are a lot of people of the Salvation Army asking for money on Union Square in San Francisco. I’m not saying you should not give them money, it’s always good to help people. But I think you should know their position statement regarding the homosexuality: If you’re gay, please embrace celibacy.
I can’t believe that. I’m sure these people who’re asking for money on Union Square aren’t even aware of this position statement. I’m not going to give to the Salvation Army unless they change this position.
