Although he identified as gay for several years, McClurkin states that he is now an ex-gay.[6] In his book Eternal Victim, Eternal Victor McClurkin wrote that homosexuality is a spiritual issue and thus one can be delivered from it by God; "The abnormal use of my sexuality continued until I came to realize that I was broken and that homosexuality was not God's intention... for my masculinity."[7] He then describes himself as going through a process by which he became "a saved and sanctified man". McClurkin has stated that homosexuality is a curse.[4] [edit] Obama campaign involvement McClurkin's listing as a headlining performer for Senator Barack Obama's 2008 Presidential campaign has stirred controversy because of his views on homosexuality.[8][9][10] en.wikipedia.org From what I read, he has explicitly stated he isn't ex-gay. Guess you read the wrong thing. McClurkin’s ministry has long included personal testimony that an episode of sexual abuse committed against him when he was eight years old accounted for his having identified as a gay man. But now that sexual identification has changed; McClurkin says he is straight, and he says that God can help others wishing to become heterosexual to make that transition. edgeboston.com
