What about when a biological father wants to marry his adult daughter? Or adult brothers and sisters? Love is love right?

The bible is pretty clear that man and woman were meant to be together. The male organ was designed for the female organ. If you choose to die alone, that is because you chose to act against God's design.

The church of Jesus Christ of ladder day saints are very accepting to everyone. Please understand that no one is perfect and we all are trying our best in life. We don’t support lgbtq+. We love them for who they are. Not there sexual attractions

@@lonelyrain5480 LDS doctrine specifically states that males and females must marry in the temple to reach exaltation. Therefore, no practicing homosexual will make it unless they "repent, and sin no more"

Thanks

"Go and sin no more" your redeemer.......

@@nickdipaolofan5948 What exactly do you mean?

@@kamriwilding6074 I mean that homosexual activity is a sin and Jesus said to "go and sin no more". We ALL sin, but we don't attempt to justify our sins or pretend we are not sinning. I agree you should stay going to church and REPENT. If you have no plans of repenting, then why even go to church unless it is to attempt to be saved IN your sins, rather than FROM your sins?

@@nickdipaolofan5948 You what Jesus said “Love one another as I have loved you.”I believe that Heavenly Father and Jesus love EVERYONE NO MATTER WHAT! EVEN THOUGH I’M GAY THEY STILL LOVE ME AND WANT ME THE BEST FOR ME! For you to tell me the way I want to live my life is wrong and a sin that going against what out savior has said as well so I think you should leave the judging to God

@@kamriwilding6074 Yes, Jesus loves everyone, but He also gave commandments that all people should live by. If you commit murder, Jesus still loves you, but you also still committed the sin of murder, which He commanded not to do. See how that works. If all God said was to love one another, the Bible would be a lot shorter.... Also, loving someone does not mean that you should condone every self-destructive thing they do. You love them enough to help them stop doing things God has said is sin. What do you think Jesus was talking about in the Bible when he kept telling people to repent? What does repentance mean to you?

Yes! Anyone who doesn't show love to you when you do that is misguided. Maybe they think they're showing you love as they scold you. But God loves all children and so should the people you come out to.

@@ethancate8462 you can not date the same sex and be in good standing with the LDS church. Will they love you? Of course, but you are still sinning in their eyes and need to repent.

@@nickdipaolofan5948 the question was, will you be loved. Did I mislead him? Love does not look like forcing someone to repent but teaching them about it and treating them the same as everyone else. Is this bad?

@@ethancate8462 First, there is no way anyone can "force" anyone to repentance. That sounds like a bit of a strawman argument. And regarding "treating them the same as everyone else, God may not be a respecter of persons BUT we all are blessed or withheld blessings from God BASED on our actions. Jesus forgave the sins of the adulterous woman because he knew she was repentant, But God turned Lots wife into a pillar of salt because he knew her heart. God treats people differently based on their heart and actions. If someone is actively mocking God by being open about their sexual deviancy, they will receive Gods judgment (and church action) according to their heart and actions. You seem to be attempting to mislead this person by implying that he can OPENLY practice homosexuality AND be just like any other member in the church. This is not true and is attempting to have people think they can be saved IN their sins, not FROM their sins.

Jesus loves you, but not in "that" way.

Look up the church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints

@@nickdipaolofan5948What are you talking about? God loves everyone. Loves everyone in a way that a good father loves his own kids

@@lonelyrain5480 it was a joke that God isn't gay.

@@nickdipaolofan5948 lol 😂 alright

You miss what the message was in this video. They’re saying everyone is loved for what they are. God will pick what happens to us all. We’re not the one who can judge or know where everyone else will end up. He just wants us to love everyone. Doesn’t mean we have to support lgbtq+. We love the person not for there sexually or gender.

@@YepMhmm yes it’s sin. But if you’re not dating or having sexual relations with same sex you’re not sinning. Plus we can’t judge, we’re all sinners and that’s why we can all be forgiven. Need to read the book of mormon as well

participate in what exactly? The celebration of sexual sin?

​@@nickdipaolofan5948 Thou shalt love thy neighbor

@@kittymerlin5736 Sex outside of marriage between and man and a woman is sin. If you have lusted in your heart, you have committed adultery already.

Im a Les,and I am a member of THe Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints too

I've since left the church as a 32 year old Bi man who also left a very abusive 7 year marriage to an LDS man, but through the struggles and darkness there was always that little light , even though it was a pinprick, I kept focusing on that light. Now as a Methodist I'm fully committed to Heavenly Father and my current partner of 4 months who is Catholic. No matter what changes you go through in life whether they be bad or good, and the ups and downs that plague us, HE will ALWAYS be there to pick us up and pull us from the darkness if we're willing to trust him wholeheartedly. I pray as you continue your life journey, you never waiver from Him. He is your rock and foundation, and I KNOW he Lives! 😇

@@nickdipaolofan5948 Can you please simplify your response. Does this church think the LGBT people are just being naughty basically?

@@poerava The church used to preach what the Bible says, which is that any form of sex outside of marriage is a sin and that marriage is reserved for a man and woman. Jesus also taught that even to lust after anyone other than your spouse, you have committed sin already. Therefore even homosexual desires are sinful. The LDS prophets taught that all homosexuals were designed by God to be heterosexual and get married to a member of the opposite sex. In fact, they taught that this is required for exaltation (heaven). now in the last decade, the LDS church is backing off on all of this because their prior biblical stance has negatively hurt their revenue and attendance. Which is weird because biblical prophets were willing to be murdered for their teachings, but the current LDS prophets will compromise their values the second it effects their money...... Just the facts.

@@nickdipaolofan5948 So to confirm, you think that it is a virtuous ‘value’ to hold to a belief that an entity that we have no evidence of, created human beings (which we have no evidence of) to only have intimate relationships and sex with the opposite gender (which we have evidence of this not being the case since as far back as we can reference)? Because why? It feels good? Happy to talk about ‘facts’, or more specifically, what we can determine from empirical evidence. You know, the science. (I do agree with you though, every religion changes when they realise their beliefs are harmful and nonsense. I’m sure this religion is no different. That’s not a bad thing for churches to change. Thank goodness they have. We can talk about harmful things taught in religions that have changed for the better. Why do you think a change in the LGBT space would not be good for this church? Are you anti science?

@@poerava I simply explained what the LDS church taught and what they teach now. I never said what my beliefs are. But since it sounds like you are skeptical there is a God no need for me to express my views based on religion. Based on biology, males and females have evolved to procreate through sex between a man and woman. The male organ was clearly designed (or evolved) to be inserted into the female organ. The species can not continue unless males and females continue to procreate through heterosexual activity. Homosexual activity statistically puts a person at a higher risk of STD's. These are all simple facts. Do I care what individuals do in their private lives? Nope, have a ball. People do risky or unproductive behavior all the time. To each their own.

My 28 years of being a member, both lgbt and lds. I have never experienced this. Stop lying. The church teaches us to love people. We do not promote hate.

yup
