1 | Why the spotlight on gays? | Prov 6:16 | EdB | 142341 | ||
Let me ask a question. Is not attempting to lay the blame for sin of homosexuality at the feet of the "church" paramount to blaming Jesus the head of the church for that sin? Is the problem truly saved people making up the true church of Christ or is the problem easy believe-ism that has lead many to believe they are saved when in fact they aren't? Is it not the teaching that you don't have to repent just believe, you don't have live holy just believe, you don't have to do anything just believe, that has lead us to this accusation? I’m sorry until I read in Scripture that my attorney, church and society will stand with me before God I think any attempt to shift the blame from an individual to any corporate body is false. EdB |

2 | Why the spotlight on gays? | Prov 6:16 | DocTrinsograce | 142371 | ||
No it isn't. The church is not perfect. We will one day be presented to Christ as perfect after we have been washed fully in the Word. Any fault in the church is not a fault of Christ, any more than any fault in man is a fault of God the Creator. Easy believism elevates man and minimizes God. Repentance is the first command of our Lord. This article is calling the church to far greater holiness, not less... how did you get "easy believism" out of it? We can't just walk down an aisle (or roll/dance down it) and expect to be fully sanctified. In Him, Doc |

Doc We can't just walk down an aisle (or roll/dance down it) and expect to be fully sanctified. Uncalled for cheap shot and we both know it! Back to the subject. Repentance is that what the article said? Or was it attempting to fix blame for the sins of individuals on church. Having read the the article that's how it reads to me. And isn't that more or less the homosexual position, it is everyone else's fault except those caught up in homosexuality? EdB |
