“Now is the time to say . . . ‘God is queer.’” Who spoke these blasphemous words, and what was the context of the statement?
The words were spoken by Quinton Caesar, a Lutheran pastor in Germany, at the conclusion of the annual gathering of the nation’s Protestant (meaning Lutheran) pastors.
The conference theme was “Now it the time,” and this was the immediate context of Casear’s words (who himself is black, originally from South Africa): “Now is the time to say: ‘Black lives always matter.’ Now is the time to say: ‘God is queer.’Now is the time to say: ‘We leave no one to die.’

Now is the time to say: Quinton Caesar hasn't a clue.

G_d is not like us. G_d doesn't think like us, doesn't act like us, doesn't have the same concerns, exists outside of time etc. We, with our 3lb brains can't conceive of or even begin to understand the entity who created the universe by speaking a word. G-d, with the word, put into place the rules of our universe. G-d makes plans that take millennia, or longer, to come to fruition. G-d is everywhere, in everything, knows all, sees all and understands all. To ascribe any sexuality or other human traits to the supreme entity is at best, ignorant, at worst blasphemy..

I'm thinking the only true and wise God Almighty is laughing at puny little Caesar and those who agree with him. And amen, poster #3! ✔️

The Bible tells us that in these last of the Last Days, many will preach a false Christianity.

If God is queer, why didn’t he just create man and man?

Since I'm Lutheran, I am embarrassed someone of my Faith would say such a thing. But then, at my age (82) I've seen a lot when it comes to Religion. The Catholic Church accepts Gay Guys as Priests, but won't consider allowing women to be Priests. Some of the Other Religions also allow Gays to preach as well. I assume they have their own Bibles as well as they couldn't possibly allow these people to preach to the rest of us if they believed what is written in the Bible about Homosexuals. Our world is a mess right now!

Yeah, sadly, not all "Lutherans" are actually Lutheran. For example, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). They are not evangelical, nor are they Lutheran, nor are they a properly defined church.
They are, unfortunately, in America, much to chagrin of those of us in the LCMS (Lutheran Church- Missouri Synod).. Martin Luther would have had a few colorful words for this blasphemer.

Why would God have to have a gender. He didn't need the opposite chromosomes to reproduce, He created it all. What drivel and if his congregation buys it they deserve what it brings them.

All of this LGBTQ++____ nonsense can be summed up in two words, "homosexual hedonism." It's just an extension of the, "If it feels good, do it," mantra of the 1960's and 70's.
A few verses of Scripture for this 'Minister' to ponder this Sunday:
"He created them male and female, and He blessed them and named them 'Mankind' in the day when they were created." Gen 5:2
"Therefore God gave them up to vile impurity in the lusts of their hearts, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them." Ro 1:24
"Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a person sows, this he will also reap." Gal 6:7

I suppose that since this man believes that God is queer Caesar is also queer.

This reminds me of a sick joke, repeated in my high school in the '60s: "I met God, and She's a Negro".
Kudos, #3. God created man and woman in His image. We humans think blasphemy when we attempt to re-create God in our own images.

As a black man from South Africa and possibly having personally experienced or knowing the history of racism in South Africa, it may be that Pastor Caesar was speaking more from emotion than intellect when making this statement in an attempt to explain the diverse and enormity of God’s love for all mankind: “...‘Now is the time to say: ‘We leave no one to die.’ Now is the time to say we send a ship and much more and we welcome people at safe harbors, safer spaces for all.” God knows what was and is in Pastor Caesar’s heart and he will be judged accordingly.
However, considering his statement at face value, as believers in the Gospel, to suggest or declare that God is gay is offensive and demands refutation. Scripture is the inspired/inerrant Word of God and Scripture states that homosexuality is an abomination, a sin:
Genesis19:5, Leviticus18:22,20:13, Deuteronomy22:5,23:18, Judges19:22-23, Romans1:26-27, 1Corinthians6:9-10, 2Peter6-11, Jude6-8, Revelation21:5-8,22:14-15
Note: Chapter 22 is the last chapter in Revelation and it contains 21 verses; in Verse 15 it is again written that the sexually immoral are among those who will not go through the gates into the city which may include transgenderism as well as the legislators/proponents and medical professionals involved in the persuasion of and/or pharmaceutical/surgical participation necessary for this defacing/defiance/intrusion of God’s created order—He created them male and female. (Genesis 1:27)
Martin Luther (German Theologian): “We must make a great difference between God's Word and the word of man. A man's word is a little sound, that flies into the air, and soon vanishes; but the Word of God is greater than heaven and earth, yea, greater than death and hell, for it forms part of the power of God, and endures everlastingly.”
“See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ.” (Colossians 2:8)
