The Tennessee sheriff's detective is a pastor and delivered his sermon at the start of Pride Month earlier this month.

A Knox County sheriff's detective who is also a pastor at a local church is coming under fire for comments he made about gay people during a sermon earlier this month.

Detective Grayson Fritts refused to apologize, stating that he is only "preaching the Bible."

“I’m not an anomaly," Fritts told Knox News. "I am a Baptist preacher that is just preaching the Bible and if it offends society, then it’s going to offend society, but if all these other pastors would grow a spine … and would stand up just like I’m standing up. …”

But Knox County Sheriff Tom Spangler issued a statement that Tennessee law and the U.S. Constitution supersedes the Bible.

"I want to be very clear that it is my responsibility to ensure equal protection to ALL citizens of Knox County, Tennessee under the law, my oath and the United States Constitution without discrimination or hesitation," Spangler said. "Rest assured that I have and will continue to do so."

The sermon in question was delivered on June 2 and the video was apparently posted on the church's Youtube channel but it appears to have been removed. But several other videos remain, including one from June 9 titled "Sodomites Reprobates."

This is how the sermon was described by Knox News:

At points during a video of the sermon reviewed by the Knoxville News Sentinel, Fritts screams into the microphone, advocates for police riot teams to haul off Pride participants en masse and uses multiple slurs against the LGBTQ community.

He also targeted Christians and others who support the LGBTQ community.

Fritts referenced his law enforcement career multiple times during his sermon, first telling the congregation "such arrests and executions should be carried out by our government, not Christians," pausing for laughter as he added, "unless you're a policeman."

Fritts has worked for the Knox County government since 1999 and was named a detective of the month in 2017.

Now the Knox County District Attorney's Office said it will review all its cases that Fritts was involved in.

Sheriff Spangler said that Fritts had asked two weeks earlier to take a county buyout offer and he is now on paid sick leave until it takes effect July 19.

So he will likely continue his sermons at the All Scripture Baptist Church in Knoxville that states on its website: "Don’t expect anything liberal, watered down, or contemporary here."

The Corporate Queer Media (and you) find ONE Christian Preacher who goes over the line somewhat on rhetoric and suddenly ALL Christians are portrayed as wanting to "execute" homos. At the same time, The Corporate Queer Media paints ALL homofascists as "victims of institutional and widespread Christian and Conservative persecution."

Funny...Just the other day you're rightfully exposing the homofascist-tranny public library readings to children, which are potentially corrupting their spirit and condemning their souls. Make up your mind whose side you're on.

Homofascists and liberals regularly and PUBLICLY post advocacy of murdering pre-born babies AND violence and yes, executions of Christians, Conservatives and those who oppose the homofascist agenda on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and everywhere else. WHERE are your posts (available by the dung-full) of THEM??

Corporate Queer Reporter: "MULTIPLE Slurs". Uh-oh. Did the Preacher also toss sticks & stones at the Homos?

FREE SPEECH LAW IS SELECTIVE. QUEERS, HOLLYWOOD, and DEMOCRATS cite "Artistic Expression" or are just ignored by this same Corporate Queer Media.

Homos have been "slurring" the name of Jesus Christ and The Almighty with impunity, defecating, urinating and worse on Christian symbols and His servants. Those who are audacious enough to call out Queer Evil AS "Evil" are being shut down, censored, doxxed, families, employment & income threatened and lost as they become ostracised.

Hyperbolic rhetoric that in degrees is Light Years in comparison. Straight from the Left-LBGTQ-Dem-MSM playbook.

Lol -- you're actually putting THIS rhetoric by THIS preacher on equal footing as Phelps?? That's pure bullshit.

There was quite a bit that was said by this Pastor that is 100% true. God DID wipe out Sodom & Gomorrah. And in the not too distant past, violent sodomite predators of the sons of righteously angry fathers DID deliver "justice" to these criminals of nature. GUESS WHAT?? They are STILL "criminals of nature" AND "Predators."

Moreover, where are your posts citing all the countless cases of open Queer calls for the deaths and murder of Trump and Christians?? (Oh wait -- it's GAY PRIDE Month and NOT "Christian Pride Month" or "Normal Pride Month" or "White Pride Month.")

Stop falling for and spreading this kind of "Pride Month" propaganda and hysterical over-exaggeration we've come to expect from Corporate Queer-Controlled Media.

I don't recall Jesus saying "kill the queers". Seems to me he forgave sinners. Hate the sin, love the sinner.

From his website, Fritts claims Leviticus 20:13 as his command to "kill the queers",

But why cherry pick v.13? What about v.25? If Fritts had bacon for breakfast, do we get to stone him?

Leviticus 20:13 was ordained as law NOT by man or Fritts but by God. You'll have to take it up with Him.

There are numerous scriptural accounts, discussions and warning on penalties for Sodomy. It is not only mentioned (54 times), but also as it is referenced negatively on numerous other occasions in Scripture.

By now, most Americans have become so indoctrinated and brainwashed by this secular-homo guided culture to accept sodomy/"gay", "gay" marriage (OR ELSE), that even Christians are willing to compromise on The Word.

Watering down, discrediting Leviticus, or cherry-picking God's entire word (purposely out of context) to supposedly give cover, give the the benefit of doubt and be "compassionate" about God's own laws as not to "offend" is now routine. Many do not even realize they've used fake quotes (EX: "Hate the sin, love the sinner.") Then again, this is by design.

Ever wonder how tolerant the Founders who established America of were of Sodomy? What was their regard of it for *their* society? (HINT: Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Webster, Jay, etal would ALL be called "Haters," "Intolerant bigots," and "Homophobes" and be banned from You Tube, Twitter, AND (ironically) banned from running for office.)

General Washington as the original Commander-in-Chief was the first not only to forbid, but even to punish, homosexuals in the military.

Because of the nature of the crime, the penalties for the act of sodomy were often severe. For example, Thomas Jefferson indicated that in his home state of Virginia, “dismemberment” of the offensive organ was the penalty for sodomy. In fact, Jefferson himself authored a bill penalizing sodomy by castration.

"That the detestable and abominable vice of buggery [sodomy] . . . shall be from henceforth adjudged felony . . . and that every person being thereof convicted by verdict, confession, or outlawry [unlawful flight to avoid prosecution], shall be hanged by the neck until he or she shall be dead." (NEW YORK)

"That if any man shall lie with mankind as he lieth with womankind, both of them have committed abomination; they both shall be put to death." (CONNECTICUT)

"Sodomy . . . shall be punished by imprisonment at hard labour in the penitentiary during the natural life or lives of the person or persons convicted of th[is] detestable crime." (GEORGIA)

"That if any man shall commit the crime against nature with a man or male child . . . every such offender, being duly convicted thereof in the Supreme Judicial Court, shall be punished by solitary imprisonment for such term not exceeding one year and by confinement afterwards to hard labor for such term not exceeding ten years." (MAINE)

"That if any person or persons shall commit sodomy . . . he or they so offending or committing any of the said crimes within this province, their counsellors, aiders, comforters, and abettors, being convicted thereof as above said, shall suffer as felons. [And] shall forfeit to the Commonwealth all and singular the lands and tenements,goods and chattels, whereof he or she was seized or possessed at the time . . . at the discretion of the court passing the sentence, not exceeding ten years, in the public goal or house of correction of the county or city in which the offence shall have been committed and be kept at such labor." (PENNSYLVANIA)

"[T]he detestable and abominable vice of buggery [sodomy] . . . be from henceforth adjudged felony . . . and that the offenders being hereof convicted by verdict, confession, or outlawry [unlawful flight to avoid prosecution], shall suffer such pains of death and losses and penalties of their goods." (SOUTH CAROLINA)

"That if any man lieth with mankind as he lieth with a woman, they both shall suffer death. (VERMONT)
