Bible Note: nelson9770: Let me assure you I feel the exact way about Jesus Christ and His undeserved love for me. I have seem people from all types of sinful backgrounds come to Christ. I do not judge them, however the Word of God does clearly and openly make strong definate warnings to those who reject Jesus Christ. Would you not agree? It would be against Gods basic personality to punish anyone who had not been warned against something God says is not compatible with His requirements for salvation. That would be not only unfair, but most assuredly a trap. Romans chapter one is the very warning, and the way those who defend homosexuality fall into satans trap. This all starts with an unthankful heart, then it is down hill from that point on. Jesus is the Judge, not me or you. Having been a pastor I can say very honestly I have seen first hand, a young boy who was sucked into homosexuality by and older man. Nothing anyone did could win this boy back. He is now in his mid thirities, and rejects everything that he once thought was good. Nelson, having compassion for anyone who is not a Christian is not a choice, it is a command. No matter what the sin! I would be chargeable for misleading a person if I were to say homosexuals live an acceptable lifestyle. Children are easly enticed by someone who gives love and builds their trust. This is how child molesters get their victims. Please do not think that homosexuals should not kept at bay. Would you expose your son or daughter to open sexual perversion? I have reasearched the homosexual lifestyle while I was in Seminary, actually going to the Metropolitan Church and interviewing the pastor. (I use the term pastor only because he called himself that.) This was an awakening that rocked my world! I will not go into the Scripture twisting the gay church uses, but to say it is liberal is too conserative. May I suggest you go to a large cities emergency room at the hospital. Ask them what they have seen in regards to what demented things homosexuals get themselves involved with. When you say "I will only listen, love, and help others." Is it love not to warn a person that that his house is on fire as he sleeps? Yes, neither of us make the sentence of hell on anyone, and it is not Gods desire to send anyone to hell. That choice rests entirely on the person who rejects Jesus Christ and His teachings. I am afraid you are very nieve or ignorant when you say "I do not believe that the "gay agenda" is trying to convert others." Most assuredly the gay movement has FORCED many schools to use books that teach small children its ok to have two daddy's, or two mommy's! Have you not noticed that television has very openly gay programs? Gays have the ACLU that comes to their beck and call every time they attempt to force their lifestyle on our schools, laws, and any place they can. They have Lobbyist's that are very well financed to push for rights that they feel are entitled to. One example is that they ate trying claim they are a minority group. With less than 3 percent of the true population, being homosexual they have much more desposable income to use on forcing their agenda. In some highschools hetrosexual couples can not even hold hands, but yet gays have been allowed to kiss, hold hands, and have public desplay of affection. This is happening in a nearby town where I live. Nelson go to a Borders, or Barns and Noble bookstore, go the the section that is for gays, look at the books, then tell me they are not trying to convert others! Enlightment will come at a cost, and I caution you the images are revolting! Finally Nelson, Romans 14:22 says "....Happy is he who does not condemn himself in what he approves." I suggest you become more aware of what you are condoning before you become a stumbling block for those who are reading and watching what you seem to approve of. Blessings. justme |
