Subject: How does any Homosexual believe they are |
Bible Note: Megiddo, You asked: "Are we not all sinners? " No. "Do we ever fully cease to be sinners? " Yes. A better question is do we ever truly repent? Also, are we ever truly born again? For those that have repented and are truly born again, the old sinner part is dying and will soon no longer be part of us. This is war. Spirit verses Flesh. But, walk after the Spirit and you will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. "We are accepted into the Kingdom by grace, not by works. Do we deserve this? NO. Not one is good enough. " We are not only good enough; we are perfect through Christ Jesus' righteousness. Those that do not repent do not receive His righteousness. "Do I think Nineveh would have been saved without Jonah pointing out their sin? Only God knows this, but provided with the story God chose Jonah to do this...in the end the lesson becomes about Jonah...NOT Nineveh ..it's a story about trusting God's intentions. " No, it is not a story about trusting God's intentions. It is a story about repentance. Jesus spoke of the men of Nineveh rising in court on Judgment Day against this wicked generation, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah. "Jonah's main issue is that God forgave them after all they had put Jonah through." No, Jonah knew god would forgive them if they repented. "You bring up an interesting question: What it is mission of Christians? Can a homosexual call himself/herself a Christian? Absolutely! Why or how?” Can a homosexual that calls himself a Christian still call himself homosexual? Absolutely not! Why? 1 john 1 6If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 7But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. “Because being a Christian means that you have accepted God's gift of grace brought to us through Jesus...who died for our sins.” If you have not repented, then you have not accepted God’s gift.
