...but obviously not in 'conservative Christian' circles (for sound, biblical reasons). Funny how a little bitty comma can change things...
;^)
You missed the point of what Paul was teaching. Read every word. There is a qualifier there. See if you can find it. Let me know when you figure it out. Hint: it’s six words.
Typical liberal response. All scripture is God breathed. Liberals will find any excuse to reject scripture.
Virtue signaling.
“But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who bears the name of brother if he is guilty of sexual immorality or greed, or is an idolator, reviler, drunkard or swindler. Not to even eat with such a one.”
You must be very lonely or very naive. ;)

“Do not be deceived: ‘Bad company corrupts good morals.’”
I Corinthians 15:3 (NASB)
Our Lord did instruct the disciples to not tolerate evil in the congregation (Matthew 18:15-17) but to confront a brother in error, first alone, then with one or two witnesses, then to the church, then if the first and second and third attempts fail, “let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector.”
It has been said that Satan’s greatest trick is convincing so many people he doesn’t exist, but thankfully you’re here to remind us he’s still around.
Thank you for that.
Toleration and treating people kindly is one thing.
But then it moves into homosexuals becoming K-12 teachers and propagandizing our kids. And then parents are not to question this.
"If you tolerate this, your children will be next!"
Liberal, seriously?
I am a strict literal Constitutionalist. I am a lifelong registered Repbulican; I cast my first vote ever for Renaldus Magnus; I have never cast a vote for a liberal; I have never cast a vote for a democrat; I listened to at least 99.999% of Rush Limbaugh’s radio shows and loved everyone of them; I’m anti-gay marriage; I’m against allowing or even acknowldging the Transexual BS; I’m against all welfare spending; I’m as pro 2A as anyone; I supported Donald Trump for President from day one; I am a total 100% MAGA Patriot; I served in the US Navy and took the oath. So you’re barking up the wrong tree on this one.
Besides I said they were Paul’s words, and they are, the Bible says so.
You’re a total Dolt.
Seeing a lot of Universalist “Theology” (in quotes on purpose) on social media lately. There is no sin, all will be saved - heresy IMO
My thought is he should debate a Chabad rabbi, about the truth of the Torah on homosexuality. Only problem: Orthodox Jews don’t discuss sex. Not quite sure how’d they’d handle a discussion on the truth of 18:22. Of course, Chabad accepts that 100% of the Torah is true - G-d’s words.
Earlier in this thread you claimed that Paul didn’t write it.
You a Fed.
Too concerned about your cover credentials.
You should never give a rip about what anyone thinks of you here.
This place does not matter.
This is a test.
Then this homosexual man doesn’t know/read the Bible. He only knows/reads homosexual misinterpretations.
“Toleration and treating people kindly is one thing.”
Thank God you’re so enlightened.
“But then it moves into homosexuals becoming K-12 teachers and propagandizing our kids. And then parents are not to question this.”
How do you propose to get to know who all the gay teachers are in order to ban them from teaching? Do you propose to maybe tatoo them on the forearm as they’re discovered? I mean how far do you want to go? Maybe build camps for them like we did to Americans of Japanese descent. Should we decree that they should not be allowed jobs, or that they can’t shop at grocery stores.
The fact is most gay people that you meet in your everyday life, you will never even know.
There's no getting around God's explicit condemnation of homosexual acts:
“...his angels were cast out with him”? Not demons? Are those fallen or sinful angels?
Yes!
The mainstreaming of the homosexual lifestyle is a VERY REAL issue.
I hope you aren’t downplaying issue.
No I don’t want homesexual teachers teaching my grandkids. Can we outright ban them; no.
I also don’t want flagrant open men or women who brag about their promiscuous hetrosexual orgy lifestyle teaching my grandkids.
Yes we all know nice homosexuals who don’t appear to bother anyone.
But it turns quickly into diversity policies at large employers and governments where that lifestyle is forcibly made equivalent to normal marriage . And any questioning means job loss or harassment .
Yes I can in one hand be:
—be nice and not harass homosexuals
—but stand firmly against that lifestyle being forcibly pushed in our society
So, you don’t believe the Bible? How about the Torah?
