Neckties are cloth necklaces.

What's funny is I actually tend to agree with this.



Now, since when did Amish folks start posting on the internet? Must be one of them liberal Not-So-Old Order types.

Re: It's Your Fault People Are Homosexual by Emma

A person's sexuality is not determined by what they wear. People come out of the closet all the time, even after dressing rather conservatively all their lives.

People are gay because we're ALL born sinners. Our flesh has sinful impulses and desires that cater to various pleasures, fullness, and comfort. Sin has warped us down to our very DNA. Sexuality is complicated because it is both biological and emotional, affected by (and affecting) both body and soul (psyche). Therefore, sexual interests, desires, needs, and proclivities can be related to both genetics and/or one's psychological makeup.

It has very little to do with the clothes one wears.

And changing one's wardrobe doesn't change one's sexuality. One must experience regeneration in their inner man (spirit), under go the renewing of their mind (soul) through prayer, study, and meditation, and discipline their flesh (body) and it's desires. And yes, it is possible for one's fallen flesh to desire that which is contrary to the abiding nature of the Spirit that is present in one's inner man. This is the war between flesh and spirit. The battlefront is the mind (soul). To which prompting will one surrender their will, reason, and emotions? This is why it is so important to be immersed in the study of Scripture, applying prayer, and contemplative meditation to what is written. In doing this, the mind (soul) is renewed and we can strengthen our will to discipline the flesh and bring both bod and soul in alignment with the indwelling Spirit of God.

I hope you are trying to be funny and not sarcastic. LOL Didn't understand the part about the barrel.

You are correct, men walked around dressed like Emma Bootsniffer.

They only spoke German, and had very long uncut beards. Instead of wearing the upside down Chinese take out food box like Emma wears, they wore helmets with long bull horns. They sailed in big ships around the world. They had huge speakers on their ships and only played Led Zeppelin.



Do you wear a barrel instead?



No one has to defend Wrangler, he's one tough customer!



Because the apostles knew people like Emma Bullfighter was going to need something to do with her spare time. So, the purposely left it out of the Bible. Moses wrote down a little something in Deuteronomy.



That's really talking about Donald Trump's wife being the Antichrist.



You know, I thought Snoopy was a crossdresser when he would fight the Red Baron. That helmet and googles didn't fool me. That flowing scarf gave it all away. Thank you for pointing all that out. I will sleep better tonight.



Hey, I remember 24 years ago a preacher preaching against black people being saved. He preached since they were the line of the serpent. That the serpent had relationship with Eve. She produced Cain, and Cain's offspring line went through Noah and produced Ham? I spoke with him after the service. I then asked him if he had many head injuries when he was younger? He assured me he didn't. I just raised one eyebrow, and smirked. He then went silent for a second and then said, "hey, wait a minute! Are you mocking me?!" I looked at him and then at my watch. I then told him that I wondered how long it would take for him to figure that out.



I have white shirts, and I have word to back it up! Revelation 6:11.



Emma Boatranger's people preach against buttons, zippers, and shoelaces.

You might see their men walking around town holding their pants up with one hand. It was a fad for awhile with young men around the United States

I'm saying that people are born with innate sinful tendencies or impulses that are a part of the fallen nature of our flesh. It's not just homosexuality. Someone might be born with an innate propensity for violence, addiction, gambling, promiscuity, etc. You can even see patterns in families, and even in people who were adopted and had no contact with their biological families. Sin has warped us down to the very level of our DNA. For example, all aging, sickness, disease, and eventual death is connected to our DNA and genetic makeup. Sin has poisoned the waters of our very being.

As Paul put it...
Romans 7:18
For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
However, we know that there can be healing and that the abiding presence of the Holy Spirit can empower us to overcome the flesh one day at a time.

A simple "yes" or "no" will suffice.
