Though I disagree with you. Let's take what your stating. No one can choose to just be attracted to a certain gender. If GOD states this is wrong then the person should choose to obey GOD and seek GOD for Deliverance instead of staying in sin. We all must make a choice to serve GOD and HIM alone regardless of what sin nature one struggles with.
Many homosexuals fight for their rights, to live a life of sin, marry, be accepted. When a person states that it is not just their opinion but GOD's commandment on how we all must live the fight now is not about flesh but spirit. It is not GOD's plan for anyone to live in sin this was the purpose of JESUS First Coming.
One can point fingers, make all sorts of claims but the choice is theirs and the choice one makes is for their own soul. The Bible is very clear so one either will accept what GOD says or accept their punishment from GOD. For no one but GOD has a Heaven or Hell. So again we all must make a choice sin is sin and anything or one that goes against it will answer to only GOD.
Blessings!!!!!!!
Of course all choose, are allowed choice by God and man. But there is no authority approved by God that demands acceptance of immorality. A burglar is arrested, posts bond, many associated with that knowing he will be breaking in somewhere again tonight. Though he is free to choose to steal or not steal, once again, if he is once again caught carrying out his choice to steal, he will answer to God AND society, not freed again for years ahead. In that case it won't matter a bit what his choices were. The choices fall to society regardless of his reasons for his choices.
No society could survive leaving all accountability for sin, chiefly in the form of crimes, to God alone. The sinner is indebted to his victims, those he even hasn't directly affected, but doing something like providing teenagers liquor for a party, which is illegal for a good reason. It's manifested in society against someone just speaking improperly to a child in an attempt to seduce, subject to conviction even though never physically touching. One's sins affect other people in some manner.
Now that homosexual "marriage" is judged legal in America, their activists for that are already multiplying their persistent efforts to promote homosexuality in our schools, it being now illegal to refuse to discriminate against hiring homosexual teachers who have legal ways to pass on those promotions. So now it's legal in schools to do what is illegal in private, in the name of education, "cultural awareness" and "respect/PC" in particular. Examples are graphic novels and videos in classrooms that 10 years ago would have been judged pornography, with men and women sitting in prison for doing less than what some teachers and many authors of children's' resources are doing.
There is no good reason for any Christian to accept the decline in morality we are witnessing today. There is no biblical mandate to stand by accepting choices of sinners, especially when their sins spread to our children. To defy the wicked is to generally increase persecution, but that's part of being a Christian. The wicked agree with the wicked, and will perish together.
I'll answer your statements more directly.
Though I disagree with you. Let's take what your stating. No one can choose to just be attracted to a certain gender.
Sinners like to declare that, but even most sinners disagree, those 98% who remain heterosexually aligned. The original sin was authored by Satan, the Devil, who tempted Eve to go against the one commandment. So people can likewise be tempted to choose the wrong gender. God makes same sex anything wrong, is on record demanding their blood/life. He hasn't changed about that. You have to dig way deep to find an infant showing signs of a homosexuality tendency, which apparently is exceedingly rare. Yet, we reserve much lattitude for those few, enough to excuse sinners who can't point to a genetic disorder.
If GOD states this is wrong then the person should choose to obey GOD and seek GOD for Deliverance instead of staying in sin. We all must make a choice to serve GOD and HIM alone regardless of what sin nature one struggles with.
God told Moses and Joshua to
advise the people to choose God and life, not sin and death. Jesus did the same. I do the same.
Many homosexuals fight for their rights, to live a life of sin, marry, be accepted.
What rights apart from heterosexuals? Do they have special rights to impose their choice upon their neighbors? No. The USSC didn't fall that low. Are they now allowed to publicly expose themselves to children in the park. I haven't read about heterosexual couples doing that, but we've had several cases lately of homosexual acts and nudity "expressions" in the open.
When a person states that it is not just their opinion but GOD's commandment on how we all must live the fight now is not about flesh but spirit. It is not GOD's plan for anyone to live in sin this was the purpose of JESUS First Coming.
God is on record saying those who do such things have the Devil for their father. I already know who most if not all our local criminals will do whatever next, watching for them to duck into a ministry to hide. The great majority of us citizens will not tolerate bad behavior, especially those condemned by God, in addition to what us citizens decide is bad enough to punish bad people. We read the newspapers, see the marriage license report, keep those in mind as to who will be interviewed for a job. We are warned by the word about wicked people and the likelihood they can't be a blessing to a Christian-owned business. We read the police reports, gain valuable insight. It's vital to not let the perverters of truth come too close. So we switch from supporting BSA to Trail Life USA. We will raise our children pleasing to God regardless of how the wicked and ignorant choose.
There should not be a mixing of wickedness and righteousness except to preach the gospel to the wicked. If they reject it then we shake the dust off our shoes and move on without them. I let all of the wicked come pretty close often, but soon know what else to do.
You ought guard your own soul more than so far revealed.
