So am I backsliding because my junk has came back or is God doing a new work in me???

Re: Something interesting about gays.

No response Mr Phelps. Let me illustrate my point as it applies to Romans 7 and 8. In romans 7 we are told by Paul in verse 21 22 23 that what he struggled with was a law of sin. In Romans 8:2 Paul that the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made him free from the law of sin and death.

Now by way of illustration lets substitute the word CHAIN for the phrase LAW OF SIN we would then find Paul saying he was bound by a CHIAN in chapter 7 and freed from a CHAIN in chapter 8. To say therefore that Paul meant he was given the power to overcome and resist the CHAIN but not have it removed would be the same as saying that by loosening the CHAIN to where you could hobble around was freedom. Such an idea makes no sense! If someone is bound by a chain and them set free it means the chain was removed from them and in no longer on them! In just the same way when Paul says he was freed from from the law of sin that he speaks of struggleing with in chapter 7 it means the same thing that it was removed and he no longer had it! Otherwise why did he not say " the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath helped me with the law of sin and death rather than freed me from the law of sin and death.

Homesxuality is no more narcissism than men who are attracted to women who look like them, and vice versa!

What about men who are attracted to women who are just like their mothers? Are they guilty of incest?

Come on......
Thanks

Right, but where they born that way? Or was it a series of choices, early life influences and environment?

Not everyone will finish to the end. Some people are quitters and others are not.

1Ti 6:11 But as for you, O man of God, flee these things. Pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, gentleness.
1Ti 6:12 Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called and about which you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

Through Christ we can manage our flesh, but our flesh will never disappear or change until the resurrection
