it is not just overlooked but is becoming glorified by our culture that is the main issue I think.

Seems to me, the sin now overlooked is my own. Too busy looking for the sins of others.

God hates all workers of iniquity. Do you believe God loves them?

What would Jesus do? Did he sit silent and ask the tax collectors and merchants in the temple why they were there. No he acted and he drove them out with cords tied together. Also we are to shun them if they purposely continue in sin after they have been reproved.

If you are going to quote specific incidences to justify doing something, you are in error if you don't cite ALL of them, and then decide how Jesus treated situations most of the time.... AND who the people were He was talking to at the time.

THEN you get to go look at the specific instructions He gave us. You've got to REALLY stretch it to justify being His police force.

God demonstrates his own love for us in this:
While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

He certainly never made a thread to rage against "them," and cheer on others to join in.

He absolutely loves them. It is only us who want to hate, and look to every time the word is printed to justify us doing it....... despite the fact He very plainly and directly told us to love them also.

I didn't mean for my words to come off as inciting violence Willie-T but rather the quick decisive action he made. I don't condone violence at all. We need to love but to allow a person to live in sin without telling them their sin is wrong and not what we are to do.

Westboro. (And I have no idea where Westboro is other than, thankfully, not my neighborhood.)

If anyone was implying I was judging I was not, I am simply seeing that the world is now very much embracing sin more than it was.

And WBC typically is used ammunition against Christians.

If I call you "those people," "them," and full of rage, do you feel the love?

Dehumanizing homosexuals is wrong, they are sinners yes, but so is everyone. Its a favorite pass-time of many to hate on others sins to make themselves feel more secure, despite scripture warning us against this.

Accepting homosexuality itself as "okay" is another thing entirely, and for the record according to the word, no it is not okay to commit homosexual acts. Thoughts are one thing, living the life is another.

What would you like me to refer to Homosexuals that aren't in this conversation with no name to go by?

:hrmm: as it is written
:read:
1 Corinto: 6. 7. Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?
8. Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren.
9. Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10. Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

11. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
