1 | Do homosexual tendencys constitute sin? | Lev 20:13 | mark d seyler | 185089 | ||
Hi Hobbs, I would suggest that homosexual impulses might not constitute sin, and if this is what you mean, I would agree with you, as that would more be what Tim was describing as the "internal temptation". But there is the matter of "evil desires". Col 3:5 Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. I see this in the same way that Jesus taught that to look upon a woman with desire is the same as committing adultery. I think the distinction is if you have the impulse, that is a matter of temptation, but if you nurture the impulse, that is a matter of sin. These are my thoughts, at least. . . Love in Christ, mark |

2 | Do homosexual tendencys constitute sin? | Lev 20:13 | hobbs | 185098 | ||
By the grace of God, we who seek to be obediant to the commands of Christ, have indeed "put to death" and are "putting to death" those earthly things of which Paul spoke of. But the battle will continue til Christ returns or we ourselves are laid to rest in the grave, our spirits departing to bliss in the presence of our Lord and King. To nurture sin is a sin in itself. I was told by a wise man "if you don't want to slip, stay away from slippery places :-) Hobbs |
