Amazing Tyra Banks show: Ridiculous exorcists & their convert — a very confused 16-year-old gay boy [video]
”[The unclean spirit] came out…. [I’m] no longer gay, but it’s still a process that I have to go through to be fully delivered. See, I’m not — the spirit of homosexuality is not in me because I choose not to live in that way. I allow God, the Holy Spirit to come in me, to change the things that was in me, to do well outside of church…. They’re called temptations…. The confusing part about that is — what came out is the unclean spirit that was controlling the inside of me into doing what God calls an abomination…. God has to do the process in me. God has to change me, I can’t do it myself. It’s the Holy Spirit who guides me into walking straight. … The spirit is gone, but my mindset of living that lifestyle is still there, so that’s something that God has to change in me. The spirit is gone, which means, I am not fornicating with men.”
Jeffrey, a 16-year-old male appearing on the Tyra Banks show who says that he believes a homosexual spirit was cast out of him during an infamous exorcism that was widely distributed as a YouTube video earlier this year. Jeffrey tells Tyra that he does believe homosexuals go to Hell. (Tyra Banks)
”I don’t believe you. When you ask a man if he’s attracted to women, and he really is, he doesn’t go, ‘Women? Um, yeah.’ .. I just want to let you know from my heart to yours that it’s okay if you’re not. It’s okay to me if you’re not.”
