Rewriting the Bible wouldn’t change the fact that this stuff is in conflict with human nature.

Dont think youre getting this. They specifically look for those that dont, then attack it. Its not enough to simply accept their perversion. They require validation.

We should help them understand it by shunning them in society, denying them communion, and even putting them out: we are told to not have dealings with someone who says they are a brother but is high handedly living in sin.

Let the squeel like stuck piggies.

“When asked about these words of Jesus, he commented that there were other churches he could go to, but he had only one son.”

If you don’t want to hear the truth, just find a church that will lie to you.

Are the Muslims, the favorites of this Democratic Party, going to rewrite the Koran to include the LGBT community?

Is the DOJ taking the same aggressive stance with them as they are with the Christian Church?

***the sodomites need to find a religion that doesn’t condemn them***

The ancient worship of Attis comes to mind. THE GOLDEN BOUGH by Frasier has a nice description of how one became an Attis priest. It’s A HOOT!
Get carried away with the drink, smells of blood, bells, music, and in a religious fever you-—Whack “them” off with a knife, dance naked through the streets carrying your severed parts, throw them down at the door and someone then brings out female garments for you to wear.

The next day you sober up and realize “WHAT HAVE I DONE!” Too late brother, too late.

What an ego homosexuals have. All of society and religion needs to be changed just for them. They don’t want to self destruct on their own, they want to take everyone with them.

AMEN!

The sexual perversions that homosexuals do with each other, (like some specifically heterosexual perversions, e.g. contraception) disable the healthy normal design of the sexes, and are in violation of Divine and Natural Law.

Actually scientology is not pro-homosexual, because L Ron Hubbard classified them as sexual deviants, and L Ron Hubbard’s writings are not subject to revision, unlike psychologists and their DSM.

However, if a homo joins scientology, they’ll find out about it in their interrogation sessions and make sure that information is put in the blackmail file to be used against the person if they ever try to go against scientology.

This situation was addressed in the Church at Corinth. Paul named many sins, including homosexuality, that the current church members did, but then said "Such were some of you", implying they had control of the flesh. If someone left $1000 on a coffee table, there are those that plot and plan for hours trying to figure out how to pick it up and put it in their pocket without getting caught. A homosexual plots and plans on getting naked with a person of the same sex until he/she finally does it. They have a choice of who they pull their clothes off in front of. It's not genetic to allow your underwear to hit the floor in front of anyone. Just as I had to tackle my anger problems, my drinking problems, my fornication problems, ect, a homosexual must make a conscience effort to stop what they are tempted to do. Jesus was tempted in the wilderness and was successful in rebuking the devil and avoiding sin. We are expected to do the same. If I see a beautiful woman eyeballing me, it's up to me to rebuff her advances to keep my purity. It's no difference with the homosexual. I could easily say I'm genetically engineered to submit to a woman's charms, but I have agreed to follow Christ and not my flesh. I can't imagine my wife agreeing to put up with me sleeping around while remaining married to her.

Scripture tells us what our sins are and what God thinks of them. How can we know what God is pleased with and then go against His will and then expect Him to make us His "Bride". No one forces anyone to take salvation. It's crazy to expect to keep your sin nature and expect the Bride groom to still take you as a Bride. A covenant is between two people that agree on the terms of the covenant. If the terms are not agreeable, then you are welcome to go to hell. God is the Sovereign. He made us and everything. We cannot tell the creator, I don't like the deal and want to renegotiate.

The major reinterpretation of scripture on the homosexuality issue coming from “evangelicals/centrists” is that the biblical writers and Jesus did not address 2 people of the same sex in a committed, faithful relationship, because it simply wasn’t an issue thought of to be addressed.

1. It removes omniscience from Jesus.

2. It doesn’t address the physical, emotional, psychological, social, and spiritual harm of homosexuality even if there is limited partnering.

3. I’m thinking that some of the rich/powerful who engaged in boy play weren’t keen on sharing with others. Selfishness/jealousy and all that being human characteristics. That an individual case addressing the same isn’t portrayed in surviving literature doesn’t mean humanity wasn’t affected by selfishness/jealousy in that era and earlier.
