Yes, Jesus would bake a cake for a gay person

Jesus Christ would absolutely bake a cake for a gay person. He’d bake a cake for a straight person. He’d bake a cake for a girl, a boy, a person who isn’t sure what they are, a black person, a white person — Jesus would bake that cake if it, in some way large or small, drew that person closer to Him. . . . .

The disagreement comes on one issue only — should a Christian provide goods and services to a gay wedding. That’s it. We’re not talking about serving a meal at a restaurant. We’re not talking about baking a cake for a birthday party. We’re talking about a wedding, which millions of Christians view as a sacrament of the faith and other, mostly Protestant Christians, view as a relationship ordained by God to reflect a holy relationship. . .

You might think Jesus would bake a cake for a gay wedding. I think you are wrong because I don’t Christ would collaborate in sin.

This is a carefully crafted article. The author subtly shifts from baking a cake for a gay person, to baking a cake for a gay marriage. If you miss that shift, you may get the wrong impression of the article.

What do you expect from a RINO site like Redstate?

[Tzimisce]

Yeah, I’m sure Jesus would be right at home in the modern Democrat party.

Just like Reagan...

So, would it be discrimination if you don’t make a cake with a groom and two brides, or is polygamy still taboo?

[Para-Ord.45]

Jesus would bake a cake to a Satanist wedding.

Jesus would bake a cake to a Pedophile .

Jesus would bake a cake to a Beastialist wedding.

Ya` think?

Or would he say, ‘ if they refuse to listen then kick the dust off your feet.. ‘ or, ‘ go and sin nom ore.’

[Viennacon]

Jesus would not serve anyone without turning them AWAY from sin.

“Go, and sin no more”

[ArtDodger]

Seems to me, before Jesus granted forgiveness, repentance was required. Not to be confused with the Jimmy Carter school of forgiveness which was offered with no qualifications, without authority and even when unasked for.

[Para-Ord.45]

* no more. ‘

[cripplecreek]

Doesn’t matter what Jesus would do.

Eric Erickson eh?

If I were home I’d post a pic of Sarah Palin.

It would be like showing a vampire a cross.

Jesus bake a cake for an unrepentant gay person? Something tells me no. Baking cakes does not in and of itself draw people closer to God; take note of the many people who remained unrepentant after witnessing the miracle of loaves and fish, after all.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Would Jesus drive a car? Would he wear jeans? Would he vote for Romney or Obama? Would he support civil unions? What about a tax cut? Its all silly nonsense. Jesus Christ isn’t baking cakes for anyone. We need to stop ascribing modern actions to Christ or any other historical figure for that matter.

[Jim Robinson]

Jesus would not use government to FORCE a man to bake a cake for someone else or else risk losing his business.

[Rummyfan]

So what? I hate to tell the author, but I am NOT! Jesus.

For pete’s sake, read more than just the title!

Then why the "Barf alert"?

[HiTech RedNeck]

Would someone actually READ this. There are enough knee jerks here to serve a ballet.

[virgil283]

Amazing the twisted logic of what Jesus would or wouldn't do.

....You know its not like he didn't write a very extensive book detailing every thing he did say, so we wouldn't have to wonder.

Marrige is a type and symbol of the believers becoming the bride of Christ, joined forever. But I suspect the world knows this and is why they are so eager to destroy its meaning...

If the deaths of Ananias and Sapphira is an indication of how God’s Holy Spirit deals with a sinful nature which tries to masquerade, then these fools claiming God as Jesus would coddle their degeneracy are in deep trouble.

[Fido969]

But would he bake one for a Pharasee?
