1 | homosexual brain wired that way at birth | 1 Cor 6:9 | quvmoh | 205754 | ||
Greetings, I read a great deal of this thread and am curious why no one brought up Romans chapter one. Romans chapter one does more than simply say that Homosexuality is wrong. Paul also deals as to why it's wrong as well as why people engage in homosexuality. He begins in verse 18 by saying that God's anger and wrath about sin is clearly known to all people. On the day of judgment, no one can use "I didn't know" as an excuse. Ignorance may be bliss in many things, but not when it comes to what makes God mad, which is sin. So .. what does God do? He punishes the sinful. He lets them continue in their ways, which leads to the false religions we have now. However, it doesn't stop there. This leads to sexual immorality and perverted sexual acts. This continues on to homosexuality, which leads to hatred, malice, lies, even murder, jealousy, and arrogance. Finally, it leads to death in sin. It begins with God clouding the minds of the fools that other men thought of as brilliant. You ask why is Homosexuality is still wrong even though science seems to say different. Paul answers it in Romans. These scientists are the ones people of today see as wise and brilliant, but are nothing more than what Paul describes as Fools with darkened hearts. Quvmoh |

Dear Quvmoh, Thank you for the fine post. If you have done a search with "homosexual" on the forum, you will notice that over the years the topic has been discussed many many many times. I always wonder why people (even some Christians) continuously try to reasonalize the behaviour with different views (e.g. psychology, science, humanism, etc.) of the secular world despite there is very clear scriptural teachings against it. People in my society say that "If you truly love me, you should accept what I do and who I am." I don't know if it is the same as in your society. If this is the kind of love we want from our God - it is disastrous. When we speak out that homosexual is wrong, immediately, we are criticized and charged as being self-righteous, unloving and judgmental. Jesus said that from the fruit, you can tell the tree. Same as every Christian, when a gay converted to Christ, he/she has to bear fruit. We could never be perfect in our earthly life, but we can strive to bear fruit. In Galatian, the fruit of the Holy Spirit does not state : perfect or holy...but SELF-CONTROL. Gal 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, Gal 5:23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Just to share a bit of my view. Thank you for your patience :-) Shalom Azure |

Hi Azure.. you wrote, "People in my society say that "If you truly love me, you should accept what I do and who I am." I don't know if it is the same as in your society."-- Yes, it is, and worse! In Canada for-instance, they have actually passed a law that you cannot preach this part of the Gospel, because it hurts their Homosexual feelings. They call it (Hate Speech) to give out the truth! And there are legislators in USA that are trying to pass law that will make it illegal in this country too. Very sad..... Good post, by the way, I especially like your fruit of the Spirit, "Self-control." :-) God bless John |
