Subject: Homosexual are picked on in the church? |
Bible Note: This is my last word on it. I have learned some things from you and only those which I did not understand or agree with have I challenged. I am not being broad on attacking gays, my intital questions was why gays. We have a social responsibility to everyone. Gays and church have been so politicized, and they are only a handful or people compared to the church. I feel we are misleading the body, by not applying the same amount of pressure on sex in the church, as well. We will not allow a homosexual to be preachers, but we will allow a fornicator. Do not take it personal to mean that is what you do. I don't think you personally would do that to anyone, I love this forum. I have been wrong and you personally have pointed me in the right direction. Just as I say all homosexuals are not evil, all church memebers aren't attacking. I don't think anyone can define it as right because it's not. I am tired of the Christian community spending more time on this group of people when there is larger issues to deal with. Safe sex is the new message, but the safest sex is no sex until you are married. I just wish that was in fore fronts a lot more. I do agree with you that you can't call evil good. Attack the si, not sinner, but a lot of the times that not the case. |
