1 | Homosexual debate at school help please | 2 Cor 4:4 | Robin Hass | 168334 | ||
Well we are called to show love to unregenerate sinners, of that I am sure. To eat with them, drink with them and share Christ with them... When God redeems a person He will bring them into truth regarding the sin of homosexuality. I don't think a neo-nazi who hates homosexuals or a liberal who accepts them with humanitarian benevolence will if born-again accept the proper Christian teaching on homosexuality diffferently. Only 'works' which originate from God are genuine. The former are not already in possession of the truth. In the OT Scriptures you cite I contend that God is the only Judge and we are called to love the sinner whilst condemning sin. |

Greetings Robin! I would agree with you because Scripture tells us that God so loved the world (John 3:16). He is said to have died for us and demonstrated His love for us while we were yet enemies (Rom. 5). The tricky part is that sometimes people get the wrong idea of what loving the sinner means. It does not mean: 1) That we do not preach the truth. 2) That we do not proclaim that their sin is in fact sin. 3) That we must condone their activities. 4) That God will not judge them if they continue in their sin. It does mean: 1) That we should speak the truth to them in love. 2) That we should call sin, sin. 3) That we should seek ways to be involved in their lives. 4) That we should be polite and respectful. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
