homosexuals-BIBLE

[edvedr]

Tweetok this morning on howard stern i was pretty amazed at the ignorance that people teach their kids. they had interviewed some the kids of some idiots protesting against gays. they were making the kids protest as well. the oldest i think was eight. his word were "fagits deserve to burn in hell, they spit in gods face and they are an abominaton (sp)". i wish i could remember everything they said but it was pretty sad to here kids talk like that. these parents are the same people who were pickiting outside of matthew sheppards funeral. how frickin sick is that!

ok so i'm not to familiar with the bible but does anyone know what passages in the bible these idiots use to justify their ignorant beliefs. i'm curious to see how bad their interpertations are off, or are the passages really vage!

Tweetsays it is a sin for a man to lay with another man! sin is sin there is no good sin and bad sin! and we ALL sin. people just like to point out what they dont like. if they are christians they should try to help people not bash them!

Wow man, you sound pretty bitter. Any reason why or you just don't wish to follow Christianity??

TweetLeviticus 20:
13 " 'If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.


that is the old levitical law!

This is what we are under now.

Romans 1:
18The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.
21For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.
24Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator--who is forever praised. Amen.
26Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
28Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. 29They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

sin is sin, basicly its saying you will pay for you sins, but JESUS paid that for us on the cross already and we now have forgivness and with that we are to try not to sin

ok...off the soapbox

Tweetso basically their hatred is back up by the bible, i'm not saying thats what the bible intended, but it just really frustrates me!

[SUGARBABY]

TweetNo, their hatred is misplaced. THEY believe that they have interpreted the bible correctly...but they only choose to accept the laws and orders they choose. The bible says we should not hate, treat your neighbor like yourself, etc. Instead of trying to help the people they think are sinning, they are creating more of a wall by protesting and spouting off their ignorance.

There is a difference between Christians and Christianity. Christians are sinners, they are not God or Jesus, they are not perfect. Christianity is a religion based on the bible that did not give every answer (which isn't possible anyways) therefore, most of it is up to each individual to interpret in their own way. Pastors are put here to guide us, they Study the bible and the meaning and do their best, but Pastors can also be corrupt as with any occupation or person.

[workinhard]

TweetYes, but.... it also says its a sin not to tithe, and if you dont know that is your money you give to the church in short. Do you see people out bashing eachother for that??? they dont want to talk about that. the only sins people want to talk about , are other peoples! sad, very sad!!!!

Malachi 3
8 "Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me.
"But you ask, 'How do we rob you?'
"In tithes and offerings

TweetSomeone Just asked me about Homosexuals and how they should be dealt with by Christians:

This is just my opinion, but here is my response:

My cousin is gay so I have had to deal with this personally. I don't propose to know all the answers, I love him and would never want to see harm done to him. If he asks my opinion, I share it with him and he is my cousin regardless. I love him. I am not the person he is going to deal with on Judgement Day. I can set an example and love him and guide him, but he makes his own decisions. He was raised in a Christian home and continues to follow the religion but is a sinner like the rest of us. How he deals with his relationship with God is only known to him.

AMEN!!!!

That is the way to treat everyone and every sin.

TweetTo me, this is how it is:

There are homosexuals who say they are born gay and they can't control their thoughts, just like there are serial killers who are born with constant thoughts of killing. They can't help these thoughts, but I still think what they do is wrong. All you can do is try to help them and wish them the best.

and Candyland is in GA! LOL
