Question: "IS IT POSSIBLE FOR A HOMOSEXUAL TO DO THE WILL OF GOD EVEN IF LIVING A HOMOSEXUAL LIFESTYLE MAKES THEM A SINNER?" Answer: First, we know that a sinner cannot do the will of God. Romans 8:6-8 (ESV) To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. [7] For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot. [8] Those who are in the flesh cannot please God. Second, as long as a person continues to practice homosexual sin, then they are NOT doing the will of God. 1 John 3:8-10 (ESV) Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil. [9] No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God's seed abides in him, and he cannot keep on sinning because he has been born of God. [10] By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother. As to your other questions, they are adequately answered in Scripture. Moreover, those Scriptures have been posted on this forum many, many times. (See the Search function.) In fact, the question to which you reply gives several such Scriptures, in both the OT and NT. They are: Lev. 18:22 ; 20:13 1 Corin. 6:9-10 Deut. 23:17-18. The teachings of Moses (the Law) condemn and prohibit homosexual sin. The Bible calls homosexual sin an abomination -- a pretty strong word. Moreover, the Law DEFINES homosexual activity as sin. Since sin is the transgression of the Law and Jesus came to fulfill (not abolish) the Law, then how could he condone the breaking of the very Law that he came to fulfill? Grace to you, Radioman2 |

Why am I supportive of the homosexual lifestyle? Whether or not I am supportive of this lifestyle is not the point. Do any of you so willing to cast stones actually have any ground to stand on. I mean this respectfully as I recognize myself a sinner. I know that one must try and repent...do any of you know a homosexual? Have you ever been friends with one? I ask these questions for one reason: It is not our task to divide but to bring together. We first offer refuge....then if one is so passionate and beleives it his/her purpose they speak the gospel, a message of love and forgiveness, and pray that the Lord helps a sinner return to HIM. Do you believe in all of Moses's law? Do you believe in a;ll Levitican LAw? Does Jesus ever condemn someone willing to come to him? If coming to him means changing your lifestyle...than I beleive people do so. I think people know in thier hearts if they are committing a sin against God. If all of you can so easily draw condemnation of homosexuality from the bible...how much easier will you be judged for your sins? My point is this...so understand me....I respond to this line of thought not to prove to anyone that homosexuality isn't prohibited in the bible...but to remind us that sin is sin...none of us are free from it, and that the messure by which we judge will be measured against us. |

If this is how you reply to me, then I think you've completely missed the point. Your questions and challenges here are outside the scope of what I've written to you. |
