The argument that "some have argued/stated etc. is "pithy" at best and has absolutely no grounds whatsoever......unless one is trying to justify the behavior.

I think that you are straining out a gnat and swallowing a camel here. Homosexuals are sinners just like anyone else with an inordinate attraction to something. The problem is that a reasonable person cannot look at scripture and say that same sex, sex, is permitted/condoned/justified in ANY way.

It is a perversion of the created purpose of God for mankind. Is it the WORST perversion? Well, I don't know if it is the worst. For me, I think the worst is child abuse and probably sexual child abuse whether it be heterosexual or homosexual child abuse.

I love homosexuals just like I love alcoholics and drug addicts etc. However, Jesus calls on them to repent just like the woman caught in adultery. He NEVER condoned sin or the violation of a moral law. Ceremonial law violations, he did allow like healing on the Sabbath, "reaping" grains of wheat , and the saving of an animal that had fallen into a pit.

The problem is that the homosexual agenda is NOT simply desiring for Christians to be tolerant of their struggle and same sex attraction. The homosexual agenda is clamoring for NORMALIZATION of their chosen lifestyle. Hence the "phenomena" of homosexual "churches" full of practicing homosexuals, not delivered homosexuals. God calls on men everywhere to repent, not continue on in the lusts of their flesh.

Excellent Post...Well said...!!!!!!

Re: Lesbian Teens Allowed At Prom -Scottsboro, AL

the information from antipas about centurions is false, there is no justification for homosexual behavior in the bible, it is condemned and god hates it, also our society bases its false premise that you can be born that way on one study that is flawed, good grief, that is just sick, dt

On the lighter side, since they are in Alabama, are they cousins too?

Actually one of the few divorces I handled was a couple from Arkansas.




Their first question afterward. "Forgot to ask, are we still brother and sister?"

Maybe a definition of what is meant here by "deliver" is in order as well.
Examples? You want examples? You can't be serious! Do you not know of any living examples of God delivering anyone from their sin?

Antipas, you're joking right? That would be like trying to say that there is a scientific anomoly for people who always steal, or commit adultery, take the name of the Lord in vain, or a number of other sinful acts. The point is, sinful behavior is a choice, not a sickness.

I suppose scientist are right about evolution?

But it's genetic make up that causes them to kiss in public. LOL!
