Psychiatrist, Dr. Robert Spitzer, once released a finding that supported a “gay cure” therapy.
Just under a week after the World Health Organization stated that sexual orientation changing therapy is a “serious threat to the health and well being of affected people” Dr. Robert Spitzer has now done a one-eighty and is now against the practice.
Per the New York Times, Dr. Spitzer, considered by some to be a “father of modern psychiatry,” gave an apology to the gay community for his “poorly conceived 2003 investigation that supported the use of so-called reparative therapy to ‘cure’ homosexuality.”
Dr. Spitzer now agrees with those who opposed him before regarding his previous work. Still others, not only going against reparative therapy, but are actively trying to kill it. The state of California is trying to ban the whole practice statewide. The WHO produced a statement May 17, 2012 which says the therapy “lack[s] medical justification,” since homosexuality is not a disease.”
They also go on further and call for sanctions and discreditation towards any conversion or reparative therapy clinics, saying homophobia is a “public health problem and a threat to human dignity and civil rights.”
about artists siingng their work. The great composers also signed their manuscripts and the original ones are often found in museums for all to see. Also the Dead Sea Scrolls of the Old Testament are in a museum in Jerusalem. The Hope diamond is in the Smithsonian But our signet rings are invaluable and we have full access to them and they sere designed in heaven by the greatest artist in the universe.Why is negative prophecy almost always wrong and what are the steps to to release a prophecy. I liked JDCruz reply about Agabus negative prophecy because it was basically accurate. It wasn’t encouraging but there are many prophecies in the Old Testament about what would happen to Israel if they failed to obey the Lord and God did discipline then many times. But He also made Israel a *battle axe and all the nations that tried to destroy them were eventually destroyed and these events were all prophesied by the OT prophets. The end time events prophesied by Jesus in Matthew and Revelation are totally unreal but the overcomers whose robes are washed in the blood of the lamb receive the crown of life. However, when releasing a word to an individual that you have received from the Lord is different. It is supposed to be edifying and encouraging bringing them hope, clarity and freedom. I think the questions Cristina asked and outlined by Stacy are a good guideline before releasing a word. To stay half a step behind the Holy Spirit and waiting on Him to show you a vision or give a word for the person is the most reliable. I have received hundreds of prophetic words over the years and I could almost always feel a touch from the Holy Spirit!!
