Well, this leads me to ask a very basic question here.

What is your position regarding homosexuality -- as to whether you believe it is a sin or not?

If so, why?

They can call themselves what ever they want to call themselves, doesn't make it so.

If it does, I will just tell everyone I am 29 and weight 110 lbs.:D

Was Paul speaking to the church or sinners in Romans?

Not sure why this is necessary.

Do you feel that we are unable to discern God's position regarding homosexuality without studying extra-biblical sources?

I have known many Apostolic gluttons, who preach , sing, speak with tongues and proficy, and when they leave church they go back home and pig out! Is this different? Can we only accept sin that does not exceed our own? Gluttons that have given in and no longer fight the temptation are they much different than the homosexual who has stopped fighting the temptation? (only skinny people may respond) hee hee , just joking.

I have to say that it was certainly not my intention to stir controversy with anyone here. I just wanted your opinions. I do value them. I do struggle, I will admit that. But at the risk of being excommunicated from the forum as my family has me. I have been saved in the independent pentecostal church for over 24 years and love the Lord. Still learning as the days go by. Jeff.

Are you implying God can live in a sinful heart?

Yes, He can to a point in which only He knows of.
