Gospel singer Kim Burrell has said she makes "no excuses or apologies'' for a sermon at a US church where she referred to gay people as perverted.
She referred to "the perverted homosexual spirit" in her sermon.
In a later video, Burrell said "I love you and God loves you but God hates the sin in you and me."
"I never said all gays were going to hell. I never said 'LGBT'... I said 'SIN'," she added in the Facebook Live broadcast.
"To every person who is dealing with the homosexual spirit, that has it, I love you and God loves you but God hates the sin in you and me. Anything that is against the nature of God.
"I make no excuses or apologies. My love is as pure as it comes."
She said "enemies" had posted only a portion of her original speech.
