Quote From: irishmomThe Bible CLEARLY states that homosexuality is a sin. However, the Bible also clearly states that we should love EVERYONE, as does Jesus. There were many people in Biblical times that sinned, but Jesus himself said, "He who is without sin, let him cast the first stone". I do not agree with homosexuality, but I have my own sins to worry about. Who am I to judge another when I walk imperfectly? If one of my children were to come to me and tell me they were gay, I would be very sad for them (for many reasons, not just because of the fact that they are gay, but because it is such a hard lifestyle to live, in part because of all the hatred toward them), but I would LOVE them NO differently. So-called Christians who HATE gays and treat them unkindly are not Christians at all in my opinion.
I agree with you on that the bible clearly states that homosexuality is sin but Christ does condem them as well. Granted he loves all but he will judge all as well. We as true Christian need to reach out to all mankind as Christ did. Gen Chp. 1 clearly condems along with other verses in the bible about being gay. People who say they are Christian and still gay aren't and that is a fair statement because of the bible. How can you be Christian and still gay. It like comparing an apple and and orange. I am against gays action not them, just like Christ.
