Bible Question:
i know in Romans it says Homosexuality is not recognized, but it also says in the bible that God loves you for who and what you are, and loves you no matter what? Pls advise |
Bible Answer: God loves us all, no matter who or what we are. It is the sin, and non acceptance which is non acceptable in His eyes. A homosexual, which is commonly referred to in scripture as a Sodomite. Do a word search in the King James version and see what is stated concerning such. For one thing, they sin against their own flesh. For another thing, our creator looks on that particular sin as an abomination. Pretty strong words. Well, it's a ugly thing if one gets down to the nitty gritty! In OT times, sodomy was punishable by death. The offender never had an opportunity to repent. What Jesus did concerning this fact was to give the offender a path of forgiveness (himself,) and time for repentance. Those who justify, uphold and make excuses for the homo's (sodomites) fool no one other than themselves and the scripturally unlearned, thus making them, as themselves spiritually void, and headed for eternal damnation. We have not the right to judge another, for this is left to Jesus Christ alone. Yet He gave us His word so we could judge the actions. He expects to do just that. Though at the moment one may be directly headed for Hades, we know not what will be the ultimate direction that person will take. Meanwhile we must.... gently instruct, in the hope that God will grant them repentance leading them to a knowledge of the truth, and that they will come to their senses and escape from the trap of the devil, who has taken them captive to do his will.
