EHH Wrong answer!
They are a Church! Churches cannot be expected to accept sin of any kind. What is the matter, can you not see the illogical and insane thought process that even invents a word, like homophobia, to attempt to manipulate people into accepting a social ill?
If my neighbor decides to get his jollies from a hole in a tree in his front yard, are we to accept that as normal and healthy too?
You’re comparing a human being to a tree or at least a hole in a tree? How very Christian of you. LOL
“They are a Church! Churches cannot be expected to accept sin of any kind.”
Quite to the contrary, I understand churches are conducting marriages, funerals for people everyday that they know to be “sinners” since all people are believed by said churches to be sinners.
I further understand churches are to love the sinner, not the sinful deed.
The SA does much good work with homless alcoholics and addicts.
Surely there is some bible passage by which their self-indulgent addictive lifestyles constitute “sin.”
Yet the SA helps them.
Only if it doesn’t disturb the horses !!
Are we not all sinners in the eyes of the Lord? How can we not accept any human being if we do not also accept their sins?
