Bible Note: Thanks for your input Mark... The reason I posted my question is that I believe that certain sins are treated as especially egregious, not necessarily because the Bible sees them as such, but for politcal and cultural reasons. We all have sinned and have fallen short of the glory of God. Therefore I believe it behooves us as christians to be meek and loving to all...keeping in mind that but for the grace of God...we might have found ourselves strugling against this terrible temptation. In my mind, Heterosexual sin is just as hard for most of us. Rom 2:1 Therefore you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things. Hobbs |
