So you are judging what is clear..YOU ARE JUDGING ! and its clear that a homosexual is in a sin that God directly condemns ... so you think you can judge...but others cannot ?

No dear brother, Jesus said he didn't come to judge, but to save. He said our own heart already condemns us. He delivers us from shame & humiliation & guilt. His love changes people, not condemnation. Threats of hellfire may keep people from doing a certain thing, but it won't change their heart. It will only keep them in fear.

The reason the world is more & more blind to Christ is because of folks representing him as an angry, horrid tyrant who expects people to crawl to him in fear. Remember the prodigal son crawling back saying he would ask his father if he could be a servant? His father didn't entertain that nonsense. That son NEVER lost his inheritance. He only lost SIGHT of it.

There is only ONE WAY people will turn from selfishness & foolish behavior, when they see US walking in liberty & love & joy & peace. When they see the fruit of the Spirit in US, they will get hungry for God. They will NEVER get hungry for salvation if it looks like God is Dungeon Master and we are his obedient slaves. YUCK!!!

We have to be the change we want to see in the world. And we all have to remind each other of that in love. I know I sure need reminding.

So you are judging what is clear..YOU ARE JUDGING ! and its clear that a homosexual is in a sin that God directly condemns ... so you think you can judge...but others cannot ?

No everyone can judge in that way, got questions explained the difference between right and wrong judging. If I say: don't judge, I mean don't judge someone's heart, not that you may not say that it's sin or that the person lives in sin, just not harsh and unforgiving and it may even be meant well and come from a good heart, but the guy that spoke to me who thought I was a lesbian, I thought he was a hateful bigot the way he spoke, but he was not. If I thought that, a gay or lesbian may think that too. He could change his approach and talk less harsh.

I can think of 10 more right off the top of my head.

Its sounds like you think you decide (judge) who can judge and when they can judge? I know God and I know His Word I have His Spirit ...I know when its time to judge and don't need you or any other person to tell me when or what to judge ...you worry about what you judge and let others answer to God for themselves.

Judge what you believe God wants you to judge...but don't tell me or other Godly people what and when we can judge ... its not your place.

"God forbid."
"God forbid."
Oh - and, lest we forget,
"God forbid."
- Paul
Romans 6:1,2,15, 1 Corinthians 6:15.
That is all I have to say.

I'm not judging you nor am I telling what you can or cannot do bro. Just offering my perspective which I also believe to have a basis in biblical truth.

It don't seem folks read that far into the book? seems many folks have bibles that stop somewhere half way through the gospels?

Save us from what? If we are not sinners? Are you really trying to sell the nonsense in this post?

Its too nice outside to be inside on the computer .... no one judge me

One look at the family forum and all it's gay, porn and adultery threads should tell ya that christians ARE sinners..lol.. Jesus came to save the sinners, not the righteous..

Its too nice outside to be inside on the computer .... no one judge me

Ok that fair ...brother but also try to understand that I know what I believe and why I believe it...I have done real ministry for many years and have helped many sinners find life in Christ and walk in the Spirit ..and have life ...

The reason I choose holiness is not because of fear..but because I know that's where I find life In the Spirit ..but be sure that some folks need a good old dose of Godlly fear...that is clearly taught in the NT epistles.

I think I do understand. The place where I am coming from is that I was brought up under harsh judgment and rejection if I didn't perform in some fashion. If judgment comes across as rejection it can be incredibly destructive to a persons soul. We have to allow room for people to make mistakes.....imo. That said, I think there are many ways to share the gospel and not everyone receives things the same way. I guess I prefer the word discernment over judgement. The word judge or judgement is reserved for Jesus I think.

God condemns ALL sin. Being a practicing homo is no worse than robbing a bank. It's still all sin. And all sin is equal in GOD'S eyes.
