It’s Not Bigotry to Believe Homosexuality Is a Sin

National Review ^ | June 8, 2018 | David French

[the OlLine Rebel]

Tell these libs to ask a Moslem what they think of homos.

Schadenfreude.

[ReformationFan]

Your comment makes way too much sense for many today to understand.

Why is any sin a sin

[DBeers]

I did not yet read the article; however, the headline is troublesome. 'Homosexuality' can be and is interpreted many ways depending upon which side of the debate one may be on and depending upon how one may or may not be informed by a well formed conscience.

Homosexuality; the predisposition to be attracted to the same sex, cause unknown; is not inherently sinful; regardless, homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered and always sinful. There are as far as biological and physical science is concerned no homosexual beings; regardless, there are those who mentally 'feel' they may be or are 'homosexual'...

God judges hearts, man judges actions and legitimately discriminates between which actions are good and which actions are not good...

[NetAddicted]

About 2 years ago, I read people with HIV die 14 years early, plus are likely to end up with dementia, or HAND: HIV-associated neurological disorders. Also, syphilis and gonorhea and other STDs are becoming resistant to antibiotics. So, science hasn’t cured the devastation of homosexuality yet.

Genesis 13:13

Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.

Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."

Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.

Leviticus niv

18:22 Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.

20:13 If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.

Psalms 12:8 The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.

Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.

2 Peter 2:13b Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.

Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.

Romans 1     New American Bible (Revised Edition) (NABRE)

 

 18 The wrath of God is indeed being revealed from heaven against every impiety and wickedness of those who suppress the truth by their wickedness. 19 For what can be known about God is evident to them, because God made it evident to them. 20 Ever since the creation of the world, his invisible attributes of eternal power and divinity have been able to be understood and perceived in what he has made. As a result, they have no excuse; 21 for although they knew God they did not accord him glory as God or give him thanks. Instead, they became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless minds were darkened. 22 While claiming to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for the likeness of an image of mortal man or of birds or of four-legged animals or of snakes.

 

24 Therefore, God handed them over to impurity through the lusts of their hearts for the mutual degradation of their bodies. 25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie and revered and worshiped the creature rather than the creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. 26 Therefore, God handed them over to degrading passions. Their females exchanged natural relations for unnatural, 27 and the males likewise gave up natural relations with females and burned with lust for one another. Males did shameful things with males and thus received in their own persons the due penalty for their perversity. 28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God handed them over to their undiscerning mind to do what is improper. 29 They are filled with every form of wickedness, evil, greed, and malice; full of envy, murder, rivalry, treachery, and spite.

2 Peter 2

1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;
5. if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
6. if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
7. and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
8. (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
9. if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
10. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
11. yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
12. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
13. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done. Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.

But there IS hope!!!

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

The Health Risks of gay sex.

[Elsie]

Today’s environment...

Genesis 19:9

[Jim Noble]

It depends on how you construe “bigotry”, which is a made-up word like “racism”, both of which have many meanings or no meaning, and are used as epithets.

They are surrogates for “discrimination”.

Discrimination is essential to life (good water vs. contaminated water, food vs. poison, danger vs. safety, etc).

If you have negative opinions about homosexuality and you do not bury them in the deepest recesses of your mind so no one except you ever knows of them, you are discriminating.

Whether or not your discrimination makes you a “bigot” is not up to you but to others, who may or may not have your best interests and those of your family, community, church, or your nation at heart.

It is completely futile, a waste of energy, and a diversion from actual issues to deny that you are a “bigot” or a “racist”.

[aquila48]

“Also, syphilis and gonorhea and other STDs are becoming resistant to antibiotics. So, science hasn’t cured the devastation of homosexuality yet.”

Those STDs are not specifically tied to homosexual sex. Heterosexuals are the ones most affected by them.

But the point is that science has made both homosexuality and “unrestricted sex” of either type safer.

Ironically today there is more social stigma attached to unrestricted heterosexual than homosexual sex thanks to the feminazis and their labeling of most sex as rape and all the recent #metoo movements. Nowdays a guy in college and at work better think three or four times before even approaching a woman.

[NetAddicted]

I don’t have exact percentages, but 80% of antibiotic resistant syphilis has struck homosexuals in LA.

[Liberal Anti Venom]

Take comfort in th following:

Matthew 5:10
Blessed are those who are persecuted for my sake for the Kingdom of Heaven is yours.

Isaiah 5:20
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

[DoodleDawg]

Social media claims another one.

[HiTech RedNeck]

To wish in a lustful way is a sign of the call of sin. Loving your brother doesn’t have to mean lusting him.

[HiTech RedNeck]

It’s kind of like calling a person a poopy head.

[Elsie]

It is completely futile, a waste of energy, and a diversion from actual issues to deny that you are a “bigot” or a “racist”.

Yup.

It merely wastes your time and energy.

State yer case and move on.

[CodeToad]

Sin or not, it is extremely gross!

[Pontiac]

There seems to be a mistaken belief by some that sexual orientation is absolutely core to a person’s identity whereas religion is something else entirely — so superficial that any given person is one Vox explainer or Bill Maher monologue away from enlightenment.

Unless of course you are a protected minority such as a Muslim in which case religion is magically transformed in to a boundless virtue unassailable regardless of the horrors performed in its name.

[Pontiac]

All across America LGBT Americans live and work alongside Christians who disagree with their actions and beliefs and also treat them with dignity and respect. It’s not hard to do when you love people and seek to imitate Christ.

A true Christian loves the sinner and hates the sin.

If a Christian points out that those that practice LBGT acts is are sinners and that their acts lead to eternal damnation it is not because we hate these people it is because we wish to spare them the pains of Hell and wish them to share in the forgiveness of Christ that we all (mankind) need to escape Hell.

Every Christian recognizes that they are a sinner and that every other person who crosses the threshold of their church is also a sinner. We all must seek forgiveness and fight against our baser nature. We all are weak and fight temptation no different than those who suffer from LBGT demonic influences.

It is not hate to declare that these acts are sin it is charity.

Russell Berger may be what Catholics term a White Martyr. One who suffers retribution and ridicule for their Christian faith without his blood being shed. There is no real definition for White Martyr but I would consider Russell a candidate for the title.
