No person who is living in sin and hasn't accepted Christ's sacrifice on her/his behalf. Everyone (and everyone has sinned) who accepts Christ's sacrifice as payment for their sins will go to heaven.
Yes, people in Romania are generally conservative and religious especially outside the cities, although very superstitious too (in the sense their faith is mixed with many pre-Christian cultural beliefs, even if they are not aware). And I get what you mean by the culture of American cities, honestly not even the biggest Romanian cities have that level of degradation.
Its statistically guaranteed there are church ministers with homosexual inclinations in this part of the world too, but they are all closeted. There are some known cases of ministers who were found commiting sexual abuse, but "queer ministers" in the sense of being openly LGBT are totally unexistent even in Protestant churches. And perverts have always existed anyway so its nothing new.
I live in ethnically Hungarian small town with a Calvinist majority and a Catholic minority. Im Calvinist and some of my friends are Catholics, we get along very well and our beliefs never cause fights, I even attended some Catholic services and never felt unwelcome there. I have worse experiences with other Protestants like Baptists or Pentecostals, many of them are very sectarian and act like everyone who is not in their church is a false Christian who deserves hell, an attitude I never found among Catholics in my area.
And it would be interesting that you posted the documentary here so all people can view easily. Thanks for that link too, will see it.
That is your answer to "what did Jesus personally say about homosexuals or homosexuality? The answer: NOTHING."
Seriously?
What does that have to do with the discussion? (Nothing!)
1 John 1:6, "If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth."
I get it that you don't understand.That is your answer to "what did Jesus personally say about homosexuals or homosexuality? The answer: NOTHING."
Seriously?
To say that Jesus never spoke about homosexuality is not true because He is the Word, He inspired/God Breathed the written word and the written word does speak about homosexuality... do you understand now?
This reminds me of the line from "Twelve Angry Men": "He don't even speak good English"
Show me in the Bible where Jesus, in the flesh, said anything about homosexuality.
BTW, how is Jesus "the written word"? By your logic, everything that I am typing now is Jesus Christ!
He is a person, the Son of God, and the Savior of Humanity. And when He was on Earth as a man, he never, once, mentioned homosexuality. Is that clear enough for you?
Nice try. I am not the one who can't communicate clearly! You wrote "Your "understanding" isn't." That is poor English. And why have you inserted a comma in "Clearly, you don't"??? That also is poor English and vague.
You can stop pretending that it all depends on you.
Actually, it's proper English. That you don't know that says much. Until you understand the basis of Scripture, which is that every word is that of Jesus, you'll never understand anything in it.
Jesus didn't have to speak on every issue that was in the Law. Homosexuality was ALREADY known by all to be a sin against God, nature, and the person himself.
Jesus didn't SPECIFICALLY talk about a lot of sins.
Drunkenness and drugs are just two examples.
Surely you wouldn't suggest that because Jesus didn't say you couldn't shoot up heroin every day that it's ok to do?
Jesus says their is ONLY male and female and ONLY they, together, in a MARRIAGE relationship become one flesh.
Matthew 19:4-6
New King James Version
4 And He answered and said to them, “Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning ‘made them male and female,’ 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? 6 So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.”
This illustrates what the apostasy is. This would have been a great opportunity to confess your sins and repent. The ten commandments are not politics. She lied, she committed adultery, you have false witness and covetousness. She does not have a testimony of Jesus Christ, she is not suffering all these investigations and prosecutions because of her testimony of Jesus but because of her wrongdoings. Her being invited to speak and then speaking at this "church" brings condemnation from the Lord not just on her but on that church.
1Peter 4:15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters. 16 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf. 17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
