Show me one place where Jesus ever portrayed such an attitude to the sexually debased. He reached to them with compassion, while you stone them with mocking allegations. I recently had a talk with a gay friend. He broke down, telling me how his father hated him as a young boy. He told me; even today his father despises him and it is commonly known that numerous men and women turn to this lifestyle because of a poor upbringing. Many gay people would confide in us about the cruel backgrounds they’ve been through if we’ll find it in our hearts to love them.

My wife was molested for 9 years by her father, starting when she was an infant. When I met her over 30 years ago, she did not trust men and was bitter. It took years of patience and love to help her scarred mind recover from such atrocity.

It's statements such as these that drive people away from Apostolic Churches.
I don't think that would constitute a stoning...homosexuality was not embraced by Jesus...no scripture on that at all...the homosexual may be embraced by Jesus in repentance...but sin is sin...never embraced by Him at all. It's mostly the preaching against sin that drives sinners away from Apostolic churches....to run to a place where their sins are embraced being tickled in their itching ears...without any change.
