Quote From: ykz_pilotIt's too bad you don't put more emphasis on what God says on the subject, instead of homosexual propoganda. If you reject the Bible, and what Jesus taught, then fine. Do what you will, but to claim to be a Christian and reject the teachings of Jesus because you want to continue to live a life of sin is hypocrisy.
Jesus spoke often on the family. Always in the context of a man and a woman. Always enforced this monogamy for life. He spoke often about the perversions of sex (outside of marriage) and the God ordained marriage not the farce done in the name of He who called homosexuality a perversion.
Throughout scripture New Testament and the Original Testament ... homosexuality is condemned and since God is the same yesterday today, and forever - it always will be to those who are Godly people.
Many people live perverted sexual lives. Premarital sex is just as evil as homosexual sex or beasiality or pedophelia. They are equally harmful and outside of God's plan for His children. Of course you don't hear single people claiming people who disagree with their choices are "forniphobic". The reason people made up the meaningless term homophobic is because they don't want people to disagree with them. It is sheer politics. Claiming a lie does not make truth.
Look at the many people who have conquered the sexual addiction of homosexuality. Look at Dack Rambo, the actor. He was saved, and after experiencing a relationship with Jesus, he repented of his homosexual choices (his words), started "Dack Rambo Ministries" in an effort to help people out of the bondage of homosexuality. He died of AIDS, but he is now in Glory. Not because he was a good person, but because he was born from above, and he repented of his sin. He is a true role model for people caught in the homosexual bondage. Also, look to other organizations that free people, and are run by ex-homosexuals. Look to "Love Won Out" and Exodus International.
God loves all men, and all women. Those who claim to love Him but reject His teaching are, as scripture said, liars. He doesn't ask you to be perfect. He asks you to "go and sin no more". And most importantly ... scrpture is clear that if you CONDONE sin, that you are guilty of it yourself. So all those people who say that a woman has the right to choose to kill her baby, they are guilty of killing that baby themselves. There are no sidelines to stand on.
Those who think you can be a "non-practicing" homosexual are misled. Your temptations do NOT define who you are. If that were the case then almost every man on the planet would have to call himself a non-practicing adulterer or non-practicing fornicator, or non-practicing rapist. Nonsense.
God calls His children to Holiness. Not pervertedness.
And here we have yet another long-winded sermon about what God thinks and what God wants us to do. And the only justification people have for telling us what the word of God is, comes from an ancient book written by people who thought the sun revolved around the earth, and that God made Adam by breathing into a handful of mud. Why should anyone with any common sense take the writtings of such a book so literally, that it trumps their own heart? This is a clueless response to an incredibly heart wrenching personal story. How can one take such a cold-hearted attitude and euphemistically refer to it as the will of God? If there is any validity to Christianity, it must speak through the heart - not through the superstitions of an ancient collection of scriptures.
BTW, I will not waste time & energy commenting on the disgusting attitude displayed by comparing gay relationships to bestiality, pedophilia, fornication, sexual addiction or perversion. It is impossible to argue with this level of ignorance, especially after having read a heartfelt account of a loving relationship that was supported by a loving family, instead of being demonized or met with the chill of social isolation, as I have seen with so many gay couples.
