You ignored my question to you earlier - - if a gay attends your church are you going to ask him to leave because his mere existence at your church means you approve of his lifestyle?

It's not my place. That would be up to my pastor.

So you do agree that AFF is a church?

"Christians" who tolerate homosexuality, without warning those involved of the eternal consequences attached to their behavior, are "holding the truth in unrighteousness."

I don't "tolerate" homosexuality, Charnock, by having a conversation with a homosexual on an internet forum. If that's all it takes for YOU to "tolerate" homosexuality, then your convictions work differently than mine. I'm not that easily swayed.

Well, there's never been an agenda. I didn't start AFF - - it morphed from FCF. If there was ever an agenda, it was Jim Yohe's and I would say my feelings aligned with his.

I'm gone as an owner and admin here - - since I'm such a demonizing, marginalizing and hypothesizing person, maybe the ship can be turned more toward the center.

I doubt it.

AFF is a church denomination in and of itself.

Jesus, help us. I was a sinner that did horrible things, so horrible in fact I couldn't believe that I could be forgiven. I spent years in torment because of that. But I was always drawn back to people of God. A pastor that would come by my house at lunch time, and she would share my little tuna and crackers,

just checking on me you know? Of course I was embarrassed, because I KNEW I wasn't living right. But SHE NEVER condemned me, just told me she loved me, invited me to church. Would be years later at a gas station in a little town that I would meet once again a loving pastor and his wife. I was ready to repent, and oh how I longed for peace and safety. Spent many months in fear, because I had to be home with my kids at a certain time, so we would be safe you know? Had to quit going, but years later God placed His love on my husband's heart. Saved him and filled him with the Holy Ghost. Maybe some of you never sinned horrible sins, is that even possible? That my sin was more horrible than yours? Would some of you would have tried to help me? Or would you have just walked by and thought I was not worthy of God's forgiveness? Thankfully, Jesus STILL forgives sinners and does not reject us. We are all unworthy, but HE LOVES US ANYWAY.

If all you do is accept sinners, yet never teach them that God wants them to separate from their sin, you are doing the work of the enemy.

If all you do is not accept them how can we teach them that God wants them?

Say hi to your "Amen corner", Charnock. Have fun entertaining all your friends by showboating on this thread.

What in the world are you talking about?

I don't believe most people even know who "Charnock" is.

Good gravy, this psychic ability you and Renda seem to have is just odd.
