If you read the Bible, read it whole, don't just quote little sections of it. They lose their context and meaning that way.
I couldn't agree more, which is why I will post some scriptures I know of for the following statements which I found a bit off:

The Bible is not a weapon. But a teaching tool and a message from God to mankind.
Not quite true, the sword is often used as a metaphor for God's Word aka the bible which contains God's Word, and used as a weapon too:

Heb 4:12 For the Word of God is living and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing apart of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Eph 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God,


Rev 2:16 Repent! But if not I will come to you quickly, and will fight with them by the sword of My mouth.

We have no right, and no business judging each others souls. That is God's privilege.
Actually we can judge, based upon what we already know God's judgement to be. For example if we know God will judge homosexuals and they won't enter heaven, then there is no use pretending that a homosexual is going to make it to heaven, or hoping that they will.

Also recognise that God will judge the unmarried fornicators (by the way this includes homosexuals who cannot fulfill Jesus's definition of marriage as per Mar 10:7, Eph 5:31).

Heb 13:4 Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled, but fornicators and adulterers God will judge.


So even if practicing homosexuals are prevented from entering heaven based on their sexuality alone, they will be prevented based on their fornication.
