I don’t hate homosexuals. You or anyone else stating I do is a false implication. I have a niece that is a lesbian. When I served in the service I trained with people that were gay and had a roommate that was gay. And if my neighbor was gay I would love them just as I would anyone else. I may not approve of their lifestyle but because I don’t approve of their lifestyle that doesn’t mean I hate them or show a lack of love toward them. It’s their choice to live that way.

Christians should pray for the salvation of the homosexual just as we would for any other person that is in bondage to sin. We don’t want anyone to be lost due to their sin.
As Christians we should show homosexuals the same dignity as anyone else we would come in contact with. We should show them that they can be freed from the bondage of sin and be forgiven. And that freedom and forgiveness can only be found in Jesus Christ.

We as Christians should never compromise our witnessing to these lost souls because of a socially acceptable opinion (which has entered many churches) that is void of godliness, and biblical truth.


Mat 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeded out of the mouth of God.

John 5:39 Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.

2Ti 2:15 Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Psa 119:105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

In God's Word it says,
1Co 5:11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such a one no not to eat.
1Co 5:12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
1Co 5:13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

Do we disregard the above verses?












Who here is not loving the sinner? And as what you just said we better not even keep company with ourselves either, then?
For our needs go out of this world
1 Corinthians 5:10 yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.
[h=3]1 Corinthians 5[/h]Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

5 It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father’s wife. [SUP]2 [/SUP]And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you. [SUP]3 [/SUP]For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed, [SUP]4 [/SUP]in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, [SUP]5 [/SUP]to deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
[SUP]6 [/SUP]Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? [SUP]7 [/SUP]Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: [SUP]8 [/SUP]therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
[SUP]9 [/SUP]I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators: [SUP]10 [/SUP]yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world. [SUP]11 [/SUP]But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat. [SUP]12 [/SUP]For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
[SUP]13 [/SUP]But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

The above passage was to the Corinthian Church, why, because they were glorying in their sins, using the grace of God as an excuse for to sin. Why not we are forgiven 100% by Christ.
That was and is why the letter was written to them, to straighten out the heresy in being 100% forgiven at all times, as in taking it for granted, why not harm my neighbor, I am forgiven, What is God going to do?
That is what the entire Corinthian letter the first letter is all about, to not take advantage as flesh does and does not love neighbor, takes what it wants at the expense of others
So to all that are struggling with sin and or taking it for granted stop please and talk to God your savior and seek truth in this deep love he has through Son for you
Praying God to show us all this deep love of God's through Son while we all were yet sinners

Hebrews 2:3
how shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;

I personally to not neglect this and being in unredeemed flesh I could easily harm my neighbor but choose not to I have decided to die daily to me and be alive to God and that has worked out a lot better than trying to stop asking for God's help and forgiveness over and over again.
Maybe time to stop self works and start to just trust God to do in you what you can't do in self? And that is truly love others the same as God has loved you?
Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Hebrews 10:10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

A Merry Christmas to all, GODJUSTLOVEYOU

God's Wrath against Sin
26For this reason God gave them over to dishonorable passions. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27Likewise, themen abandoned natural relationswith women and burned with lustfor one another.

This is an ongoing debate that has risen into the christian community since the recent law changes. Which has resulted in a lot of divisions in the church.

My question is do you think that God views homosexuality as a sin or not and why? Are some people born homosexual thus making it completely natural and not a choice or is it an inherited sin in which we are born with like the rest of sins and essentially one has to be 'born again'?

I am really interested in people's viewpoints

I apologise if this question has been asked many times before as I am new to this forum.

Thanks for replying in advance :)
It is sin, clearly. There are SOOOOOOO many verses in the Bible that say it.

There is division between "churches" because it's a political and social movement.... Do you like many churches condemn sin just because you feel like it? Do you go against God's word and follow the political movement and be their puppet? or do you stand up for yourself and for God's word?

The word of God is the most holy of all, and is righteous. Homosexuality is CLEARLY against God's word. But is it ok just cos politicians say it is? I'll leave that up to you to decide, one is to follow the Lord, while the other is to follow Satan, and the division has just shown how many churches there are that follow the political establishment and NOT the Lord.

Do you believe God accepts abortions? Do you believe God accepts drug users? Do you believe God accepts liars?

The answer is yes to all of these and yes to Homosexuals.

God accepts everybody! He does not like their sins, but God will never reject those who accept Him as their Lord and Savior.

The Bible makes it clear that any sex outside covenant marriage between one man and one woman is sin. Man's laws mean nothing to God.

We are all born with the sin nature, and satan has a plan for each of our lives, and he uses whatever sin we might have proclivity towards.
Just asking, where does Bible make it clear, that monogamy is a must?

David, Abraham, Moses, Salomon, all had at least two wives.

All of us have sin, God hates sin, we are to hate sin, I hate what sin has done to people, how it lies to people. Sin is sin God hates it so every one is on a equal playing field.
Now to take it one step further......I hate people that condone sin....so does God.
One more step further....I judge sin....so does God. The people that practice and condone sin and reject the one who had done away with sin have 2 appointments with death according to the one who placed the boundaries on what is good and what is evil.
Shall we start a liars community? Shall we start a murderers community? How about a pedophile community? Then each will have a chance to justify the what's and whys and live happily ever after......not.
Believe me friend God has already taken the blame for what you say is his fault for making you like this. Truth be told he was innocent. Balls in your court now....is he a liar?..or are you being lied to?

You sound like a confused Christian who is afraid to speak the truth from God's Word. Homosexuality is a sin. It's twisted and perverted. Satan always tries to change what God has established. The real reason for the Gay Agenda they want everyone to think that being gay is normal. God destroyed Sodom &Gomorrah because the people were homos and lesbians. The Bible is God's Word and the final authority. If you don't accept the truth from God's Word you can be deceived by Satan. I don't care what the politicians in Washington DC say! Homosexuality is wrong. Leviticus 18:22 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination. Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Christians have no business supporting gays or voting for people who approve of the homosexual lifestyle. The Illuminati is pushing the Gay Agenda. It's time for the Body of Christ to stop being afraid. Time to preach the true Gospel and go to war. It's a spiritual battle. The Children of God vs Satan and his demonic spirits.1Timothy4:1 Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons. I pray that God will upon your eyes and you will know the truth from God's Word. People are not born gay. That's a lie from the pits of hell. God's loves everyone. If you're not obeying God's Word you're living in sin. Preacha24-7

God said is is an abomination, and He does not change His mind.
so . .
. . contrary to the connotation that could easily be gleaned from the brief statement,
"
accepting homosexuals right where they are"
. . .


:rolleyes:

when i put it this way, does that other thread make better sense to you, i hope?

But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers,
and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth
with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

God accepts us all RIGHT WHERE WE ARE!! We cannot get good enough to be accepted by Him.
