Just Erica link wrote, "That explaination, as well as the sources you cited from the Bible are extremely helpful, thanks. I guess I'm a liberal to my heart, though because there are things I don't judge people on. Homosexuality isn't inherently evil (my opinion)...the mushy side of me sees homosexuality as something that is no different than heterosexuality ( other than the fact that no children can be physically concieved in a homosexual relationship.) . I look at evil people differently though. Those who kill, steal, rape, molest or threaten people just because they feel they have the right to do so. Their actions actually have a negative impact on the lives of everyone around them. I really hope that wasn't too scatter-brained for you. Thanks again for your well-thought out response."
Don't worry, I'm pretty easy going. I understand what you're saying.
On the race issue I agree with you, but on the homosexual sodomy part,
nuh uh, I have to totally disagree. Here are a few things to think about.
"Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave
unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh." Genesis 2:24
This was Gods plan. Man and Woman... Not Man and Man or Woman
and Woman. It was never even an option! what made it an option in
people's lives is submitting to sick G-d forsaken thoughts.. and these
same acts you think are harmless G-d takes very seriously.. Even
animals stick to Gods code.. people are breaking HIS law and sending
themselves to never ending nightmare called HELL. According to the
Bible Sodomites (all immoral sex) are in serious danger of Hellfire.
G-d speaks against Homosexuals in the Bible... G-d sounds like he
means what he is saying:
"Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination."
Leviticus 18:22
"If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them
have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their
blood shall be upon them." Leviticus 20:13
"There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of
the sons of Israel." Deuteronomy 23:17
The New Testament Speaks Against it as well:
"For this cause G-d gave them up unto vile affections: for even
their women did change the natural use into that which is against
nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the
woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men
working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that
recompence of their error which was meet. And even as they did
not like to retain G-d in their knowledge, G-d gave them over to
a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness,
covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit,
malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of G-d, despiteful, proud,
boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without
understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable,
unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of G-d, that they which commit
such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure
in them that do them." Romans 1:26-32
Today Homosexuals are getting married and considering this to be normal
act under the eyes of the Living G-d. Homosexuals even think they have
the right to torture a young childs mind with their perverted lifestyle by trying
to adopt children.. This is basically like telling G-d not only will you not obey
his covenent but you're going to pervert and distort it as much as you can.
Take this is a very REAL warning! This is such an abomination in the eyes of
the Living G-d.. I cannot imagine what might happen to anyone promoting
such acts.. This is such a deadly sin I will not comment too much on this subject..
I would compare this to what Jesus had to say about anyone who ever hurt a
child in (Matthew 18:6).. What Jesus is basically saying is before you even come
close to such a sin of hurting a young child it is better to kill yourself before hand.
"But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were
better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were
drowned in the depth of the sea." Matthew 18:6
"Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences
come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!" Matthew 18:7
By the way, I would highly recommend you watch this:
Why Evolution is Soooooo Stupid.PS -- Oh, yeah, the other thing: Please keep in mind I mean no offence to you,
just trying to keep it real. In the Book of Life, the answers aren't in the back.
May the LORD show you His favor and give you His peace.
