"Edmonton's Christian university" celebrates "Pride Week"

Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall. Proverbs 16:18

Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. Leviticus 18:22

Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. Romans 1:24-32

The King's University in Edmonton, Alberta

The King's University is Edmonton's Christian University and serves students and communities across Western Canada and internationally. Its campus is located in Alberta's young and vibrant capital and sits on Treaty Six territory, the traditional home of many Indigenous peoples.
The world can be studied best when acknowledged that it was created by and belongs to God. Come to King's and you'll see friendly, welcoming faces. We do our best to reflect Christ's love and grace to all students. The university receives top rankings and recognition on national surveys for student-faculty engagement, a supportive campus, and quality of teaching. It's no wonder King's boasts of a 98% post-grad employment rate!

Anyone who thinks that The King's University is Christian simply isn't paying attention. In the 1990s, the school then known as King's University College pretended to oppose what they now openly celebrate. Submitted for your approval, the schedule for The King's University's 2023 celebration of "Pride Week":

In 1981, I heard Old Testament professor Ralph Alexander deliver a series of lectures on David as a man after God's heart, but he started with a lecture about Saul, who was not a man after God's heart. One of the things he said that has stayed with me concerns I Samuel 15, where God commanded Saul to slaughter the Amalekites, including not only all the people, but all the animals. Saul instead saved King Agag and the best of the animals, while claiming that he had obeyed the LORD. Dr. Alexander pointed out that Saul was guilty here of finding something good in that which God had condemned. The same is true for anyone who celebrates and takes pride in sexual practices that God calls abominations, a which connotes condemnation in the strongest possible terms.
