Subject: how can we minister to homosexuals |
Bible Note: Doc, I don't believe Jeff ever said in his post that a homosexual could remain in his sins (lifestyle) if he got saved. I think that is why this thread is so confusing. I took from his point and I quote him "Recognizing false teaching (and that by the fruit) and judging the eternal state of another is two very different things." I agree with him on this point because as the scriptures say man looks at the outward appearance but God looks at the heart. Thus, God is the only judge who can give a right judgment. When we take that upon ourselves we do an injustice to God putting ourselves on His level. Only God can judge the eternal state of a person. We do not have that divine power and insight. We can think we know where a specific person will go but we are told to witness and warn not give a final judgment which we cannot do anyway because we are looking at the outward appearance not at the heart.
