That's a real interesting perspective. Let me ask you this; Is the bible a book that Christians should follow, or is it a book of fairy tales written long ago for a distant group of people?? I ask this because the bible tends to indicate that Love rejoices not in iquity, but in truth. So who's truth does Love rejoice in, Man's or God's?? | ||||||

Well to answer the first question, I believe Christians should follow Christ. I believe the bible contains wisdom, truth, poetry, songs, parables and in essence a collection of most things God wants to communicate with us through it. The other part God touches our heart with the Holy Spirit to know truth, to know love. Love is always of God, sorry if you dont believe that. Lust is not of God. True love is a gift. Why do you sound so condemming of it? I also believe the New Testement formed a new covenant with God. All that happened before is now replaced. How? With Christs unconditional love. Mabye the issue isnt homosexuality here, mabye for you it is only a question of love. Gods love be upon you. | ||||||

Granted, I DO need prayer, so maybe we should both pray for spiritual wisdom. I'm not condemning Love, I just get slightly irritated when it appears that we accept the part of the bible that fits us, and trash everything else we don't like. The bible's perspective on the sin-Homosexuality- is clear. It's an abomination unto the Lord. The bible's perspective on the sinner-Homosexuals-is also clear. Love the person, hate the sin. "Love rejocies not in inquity, but the truth.." My question still stands, "Whoes truth, God's or Man's??" If it's God's truth, He has an awful lot to say on the issue, and none of it looks to promising for the sin itself. If it's Man's truth, then all we're going to do is justify the wrong that we do so it won't be wrong, INSPITE of what God's truth says. Would you mind if we discussed what some of those verses mean?? |

Prayer does always good. I will pray for the truth to be made even more apparant. God combined his truth by inspring man to write it. The bible is written by man inspired by God. To an extension the text I write right now, I believe to be inspired by God. I believe that the application of the bible into ones life will lead him to a better life, but the belief of Jesus will save him no matter what. Translations through ages have lost much of the intent of some passages. You are right. I mean I could also be seen as using the bible to benefit me and what I want. The way I know that this is not the case is because I met Jesus. Or he found me! smile... All I can do, is live my life to be a true reflection of him and how i see it to be. By loving, commiting, nuturing, praying I believe that through this God doesnt see me as a homosexual, but as a person who wants to be with him. The word for God forgetting is called forgiving. When he forgives, he forgets. I pray for forgivness not of my love, but of the person I was before he came in my life. I agree with you. Whose truth is it really? |
