It's Not Like Being Black

Praise for It's Not Like Being Black:

“Riveting. From the opening paragraph of the introduction to the book’s final page, It’s Not Like Being Black is filled with common sense, uncommon insights, and sound biblical wisdom. Voddie Baucham is a refreshing voice of clarity, courage, and conviction in a morally insane culture now completely given over to irrationality and sexual perversion. He excels at tipping the sacred cows and debunking the mythology of the LGBTQ+ movement. ‘Gay is not the new black,’ he writes. ‘It is merely the old sodomy.’ Despite the difficulty of the subject matter, this is a remarkably well-written, timely, and edifying book.”
—John MacArthur, pastor-teacher of Grace Community Church, chancellor of The Master’s University and Seminary, and bestselling author

“Voddie Baucham is a trustworthy guide through the ever-changing cultural landscape of Western civilization. His biblical, theological, and historical analysis of the sexual anarchy through which we are living is both enlightening and convincing. He documents how sexual revolutionaries have purposefully and strategically worked to normalize what a few decades ago was universally recognized as perversion. One of their main tactics has been the co-opting of the language and good intentions of the civil rights movement. By marketing sexual perversions as ‘like being black,’ these cultural revolutionaries have successfully maneuvered themselves into positions of political power. This book explains their game plan and warns of what else is on their agenda.

“But Voddie is primarily a pastor. So he is not content simply to chart the methods and goals of the sexual revolution. He also shines the light of Scripture on the issues involved to help God’s people navigate the turbulence being left in its wake. God’s design for sexuality and marriage is clearly explained as being both right and good. And God’s grace in Jesus Christ for both perpetrators and victims of sexual deviancy is pastorally commended to all who will look to Him in faith.

“This is a book that should be read by every pastor and church leader who wants to help people find the path of truth, joy, and hope in a world of sexual chaos. Young people who want to make sense of the sexually confused world in which they have grown up will find a wealth of biblical wisdom in these pages. I hope that it will be widely read.”
—Tom Ascol, pastor of Grace Baptist Church and president of Founders Ministries

“There are few issues in the Church today that are more of a threat to the gospel of Jesus Christ and His Church than the LGBTQIA+ movement. We need evangelical voices to speak to these issues with boldness, clarity, precision, and gospel hope. No one does this better than Voddie Baucham. Every Christian needs this book to understand the dangers of the LGBTQIA+ movement and to gain a thorough biblical response. Get it and read it today.”
—Tom Buck, pastor of First Baptist Church in Lindale, Texas

“At last, the book that had to be written, and Voddie had to write it! I minister in post-apartheid South Africa, where civil rights and human dignity were cruelly disregarded for decades and continue to be today through reverse racism. Likewise, our African continent has known centuries of brutal enslavement along racial lines. What a colossal insult then to all these true victims of historic injustices to say that today’s ‘sexual minorities’ are the oppressed ones. Voddie’s book persuasively debunks that myth and dismantles that flawed argument with his characteristic clarity, thoroughness, and grace.”
—Tim Cantrell, senior pastor of Antioch Bible Church and president of Shepherds’ Seminary in Johannesburg, South Africa

“With the same scholarly research, biblical insight, and pastoral wisdom in which he masterfully exposed the belief system of Critical Race Theory in his bestselling book Fault Lines, Dr. Baucham uncovers the dark anti-God assumptions of the LGBTQIA+ movement in It’s Not Like Being Black, powerfully equipping the Church with Scriptural weaponry that destroys the Serpent’s arguments raised against the knowledge of God, for exclusive obedience to Christ. It’s Not Like Being Black reveals that Satan’s current crafty scheme is to use race as a trojan horse to bring in the gay and trans agenda, not only in society, but in the Church! I highly recommend this book to pastors who long for faithful boldness, to apologists who aspire for precision and persuasiveness, to evangelists and counselors for proclaiming liberty to the captives, to Seminary professors and their students for seeking preparation as the Lord’s soldiers, and to all Christians who yearn to speak the truth in love.”
—Timothy Brindle, associate pastor of Olive Street Presbyterian Church, senior stewardship officer at Westminster Theological Seminary, author, and Christian hip hop artist

“Dr. Voddie Baucham pulls no punches in his eye-opening exposé of the LGBTQ+ movement. It’s Not Like Being Black teaches Christians the underlying logic and direction today’s sexual revolutionaries are taking our country and churches. Every citizen should be concerned. From the civil rights era to the present, Dr. Baucham chronicles the way activists against the created order have used the path laid down by figures like MLK Jr. to promote their own nefarious intentions. While the book treats the damaging impact of degeneracy with honesty, it also offers hope for even the vilest of sinners with inspiring stories of redemption. Few men are as brave, humble, and honest as brother Baucham. This is a book you do not want to miss.”
