Regarding the LGBTQ presentation of the last supper in France

[Raccoon1010]

I looked at some content from Fox news of the Olympic presentation in France 2024 which was in image of the LGBTQ people and also presented in image to include that of the New Testament account Jesus and his apostles at the last supper.

The bible is a true document of historical account. There were Jesus, his apostles and one of them "Judas" betrayed Jesus and had a terrible outcome for "Judas" as recorded in the gospels.

And it troubled me to see that story. I also was troubled to see images all over social media.

We as Christians follow the old and new testament direction and commandments of God. God has spoken on the issue of homosexuality in the old and new testament already. What affect does viewing images as presented in the media from the Olympics held in France 2024 have on people who love God and his children?

Romans 1:24–27 (NKJV) “Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.”

Leviticus 13 If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them.

My belief on the issue:

I see that children are raised in homes that are Christian good homes and other homes and such. I believe I needed time to find out what I desired which turned out not to be a sinful and selfish life, and turned to God and had enough time to do that, I learned to help others under God's direction and sometimes he blessed me with the fruits of the Holy Spirit:

Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

Not everyone turns to God before they die. And that can hurt for family, friends, others and Christians to witness.

Certainly I would pray for those LGBTQ people to be delivered by God and his people that they confess and repent of their sins. There is first confession then Baptism and also being confirmed with the Holy Ghost, then the Bread and Wine can be received. And that I read as the procedure in the New Testament for people desiring to Join with God and his people.

Regarding the issue of taking the bread and wine ordinance of God there is scripture that must be read:

1 Corinthians 11:27 Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. 28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body. 30 For this reason many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep. 31 For if we would judge ourselves, we would not be judged. 32 But when we are judged, we are chastened by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.

God is not going to lose a single soul that He has given to Christ for salvation.
And all of this is written to and for us believers.

8 But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation.
9 For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
10 who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him.

Excellent concepts hear about our eternal redemption. God's command is that we must be saved, that is we who are His sheep, that none of us sheep be lost.

1 Peter 1
24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose [a]stripes you were healed. 25 For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and [b]Overseer of your souls.

John 17:12
While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Your name. Those whom You gave Me I have kept; and none of them is lost except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

John 18
8 Jesus answered, “I have told you that I am He. Therefore, if you seek Me, let these go their way,”
9 that the saying might be fulfilled which He spoke, “Of those whom You gave Me I have lost none.”

Luke 10
17 Then the [e]seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.”

18 And He said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. 19 Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 20 Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but [f]rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.”

Jesus Rejoices in the Spirit​

21 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and revealed them to babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight.

22 All[g] things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.”

Interesting I've been seeing meme's and pictures of the last supper painting or something that looks like this:

Now I don't know about you guys and what you think about the modern deception of youth in the media, especially in areas that only youth go. There were meme's saying let's flood the internet with the above picture, and that appeared better to me. But interesting enough is the modern and clean design of the building and table presented in this picture or painting. I'm not sure what era this came from but wondered if that even reflected the last supper layout. Then I found the more roman painting idea which also didn't reflect what I thought would be the correct scene:

I decided to look around for a picture that fit more appropriately to what I thought it might actually look like and this is what I came up with:
