This is a big problem and probably the main issue today when talking about these sensitive issues. Warren is saying that if, yes you are indeed gay.... you have sexual attraction to the same sex... next step - should you act on that? or not? Just because you have a sexual/physical attraction to someone does not then mean that you have NO control over what you do and how you act.

The argument that if a trait is "naturally" occurring that behavior should be acceptable to society is only used in regards to homosexuality. The fact is most people do not follow that "logic" in regards to other traits. Alcoholism, drug addiction, obesity, violent tendencies - to name a few - all very likely have genetic predisposition factors. No one advocates that we should celebrate and encourage those traits. The argument is naive. The truth is homosexuality is "natural" because sinning is "natural" to fallen man. A genetic or hormonal component does not change the morality of the behavior that we choose to do in response.

@@therose8521 the writer of Matthew gets off to a terrible start, with his prophecy manipulations. He quotes the Septuagint (Greek translation) of Isaiah 7:14, which mistranslates the Hebrew word for “young woman” which Isaiah uses, as “virgin”. The mistranslation is useful to gospel writer, for the purpose of creating a miraculous pedigree for Jesus. Also, the “shall conceive’ in the Hebrew, can also mean “is pregnant”. The New Revised Standard Version is one of the few Bible translations which renders the version in a manner which is honest to the Hebrew text: Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Look, the young woman is with child and shall bear a son, and shall name him Immanuel. Next problem, the prophecy says that the young woman’s child will be named “Emmanuel” even though angel of the Lord tells Joseph to name Mary’s child “Jesus”. Who in the New Testament ever calls Jesus Immanuel? Oh, that’s right. No-one, ever. There are numerous failed prophecies such as Genesis 15:18 which promises the land of Canaan as “an everlasting possession” to the Israelites (a possession the Israelities constantly lose in wars). God promises to drive all the Israelites enemies out of the land (Exodus 34:10-1) (which he could not do because some of them had “iron chariots”). It is prophesied that Josiah will die in peace (2 Kings 22:19-20) but he later killed in battle with Egyptians (2 Kings 23:29-30) Zechariah 9:8 prophesies that Israel will never be overrun again (it is). Zechariah 10:11 prophesies that the river Nile will dry up (one of the more spectacular failures).. This is also prophesised in Isaiah 19:5 which further predicts (19:17) that Judah will conquer Egypt (it never even tried to invade), five Egyptian cities will speak Canaan languages (19:18) (never happened), Judaism will become a major Egyptian religion (19:21) and there will be an alliance or unification between Egypt and Assyria (19:23) (which never happened). You are cherry picking a few prophecies that can be twisted to seem as if they were fulfilled! I sincerely hope I have destroyed the grip that religion has on your mind!

@@criticalthinker2380 The religion that you think I refer to is false.The world has been taken captive by false religion. God created the physical world that we can see to explain the spiritual world that we cannot see. The Old Testament is a mirror the New Testament is the reality. If there's a physical Egypt, Canaan, Jerusalem, Israelites, 40 years in the desert, father, mother, childrens, Adam and Eve, then there's spiritual ones of all of the above. If we have physical eyes then we have spiritual eyes. There are people who do believe in God, yet there spiritual eyes are closed.

True story. I once had all sorts of sexual desires. However, those desires interfered with my relationship with Christ. Desperate to be different, I prayed and said. "I'm not eating until, God, you deliver me from these desires that are unholy" The bible says live one way, but my heart was longing for things contrary to the way the bible says to live. I was miserable! So I did not eat the rest of the day. I went to bed hungry, but determined. Woke up the next morning feeling very different. All those desires were gone. It's been nearly 20 years, and although I have struggled with moments of temptations throughout my adult life due to outside influences and poor decision-making, I have never been the same. I no longer struggle with or live a lifestyle of those sinful desires that conflict with biblical ways. We've got to "hide His Word in our hearts so we won't sin against Him". The Word of God is true. It works when applied.

Don't discriminate. And especially don't pervert the gospel into an excuse to spread the teachings you've been taught falsely, based on bad interpretation. Sorry, I wasn't mentioning you there. I was using our conversation as a springboard to address Christians who have yet to do a graduate level study on several relevant passages (you know who you are) because it really goes deeper than just there being just perverts and adulterers and practicing homosexuals in the church: it applies to every human community, as well.

Thank you for sharing your story. GOD LOVES YOU, Jesus Christ Loves You! They love all their creation! So many people abuse the name of God and Jesus Christ. So many call themselves Christians and abuse others with hate, prejudice and discrimination! Jesus Christ taught love and acceptance of all others especially and including Gays and Lesbians. The oldest texts of the Bible used to contain pro Gay verses! On two occasions in the first One Thousand Years of Christianity investigations were called for by the full assembly of all officials of the Christian Church to mandate a thorough research team of theologians to determine what the Bible taught regarding same sex love, etc. In the first investigation in the first 500 years it was found that there was not so much as a single verse that was anti gay! In fact the Bible was found to be Gay Friendly and Pro Gay! This was investigated again 500 years later and it was noted that the Bible had been changed so much that it was becoming neutral on the subject! Radical Heterosexuals began to take over the church. They set about to promote their Radical Heterosexual Agenda and were so blatant about it they shoved it into people's faces! After the year 1100 anti gay verses began to appear in the Bible. Stories and verses began to be completely rewritten to become outrageous anti gay stories! Radical Heterosexual Popes ordered more than several hundred complete rewrites, edits, redactions and changes to the Bible. Some experts claim to have counted more than 250,000 deliberate changes and alterations to the Bible! The majority were NOT benign, nor improvements, many were out and out malicious. The famed Scientist Isaac Newton was told after church one Sunday that what you heard in Church today is NOT the Word of God NOR the scriptures we grew up with! Isaac Newton took note and researched this his whole life and found his parents were right -- the Bible had been rewritten many, many times! He believed a substantial number occurred in the days of Emperor Constantine. In addition many important persons and names have been deliberately obfuscated, changed, concealed and even deliberately hidden and or altered! For example: Jesus isn't even the Savior's name! There is no one in the Bible named Jesus! The Savior's name is "Yashua"! The proper translation of His name would be: "Yashua" to Joshua! There is NO "Mary" Magdalene. Mary Magdalene is really "Mirianne"! There is NO "Mary" Mother of Jesus in the Original Texts! Mary mother of Jesus is really "Miriam"! "Yashua" was raised by "Miriam" and was a friend of "Mirianne" Mary was chosen by Catholic translators to make her sound phonetically the same as the Roman Catholic "Mari"! "MIRIAM" IS NOT "MARY", and "MIRIAM" IS NOT "MARI" ! Roman Catholicism absorbed an enormous number of the Pagan Religions of Europe, Greece, and Asia including the Middle East. This was done through Ecumenical Councils to unify the Empire.: This is how Christianity suddenly acquired so many PAGAN teachings and rituals. Who is Mari? It is believed by some that MARI is in some regions the goddess of the BAAL Religion. She is the mother of the great god Lord Baal! Her official title is called: "Mari Mother Of God, Queen Of Heaven!" By the way, many of the other names in the NT are falsifications and or deliberate corruptions. The Heterosexual Popes even removed verses of Jesus Christ's many LOVE affairs and encounters with gays. Jesus was bi-sexual in His early life. Jesus Christ was very open about His gay LOVES and Gay all night dates! Clement was Puritanical cloistered and out of touch with reality and was rabid foaming at the mouth against gays, people having love, dating and romances, etc. He called for all Churches to get knives and stab, kill and slaughter and murder such people across the Empire. Churches wrote back and politely said: Apparently you have never read the Bible. Both Old and New Testament Include the stories of the love lifes of most Bible persons INCLUDING JESUS CHRIST! Clement ordered all Bibles returned to the monastery that was assigned to make copies and ordered all Bibles passages to be deleted of Jesus Christ's many love affairs! Popes ordered the verses, stories and passages of Jesus Christ's sex life to be completely removed! The Roman Catholic Religion and Church was the official Federal State Church of Rome: the village and then the Roman Kingdom, then the Republic, then the Empire! The Roman Catholic Religion and Church was originally founded NOT by Jesus Christ, but hundreds and hundreds of years before Jesus Christ, by Romulus and Remus. On the very day they founded Rome they dedicated it to VESTA, in honor of their mother who was a VESTAL VIRGIN! She had escaped the horror and slaughter of the TROJAN WAR and the burning and destruction of TROY. The Catholic Church had the Vestal Virgins. They attended the official College of the Vestal Virgins. They were educated in law, property titles, deeds, wills, civil law, criminal law, etc., and the proper recording and preservation of these. It is NOT known to most but they achieved the Highest Honor in the Empire and became their equivalent of Supreme Court Justices serving life terms. They Ruled in Power greater than the Emperor! Any Judicial Decision by an Emperor could be appealed to the Supreme Council of the Vestal Virgins. They had the Power and Authority to overrule the Emperor! However, if they failed in their duties, especially remaining chaste and Virgin, then the Emperor could order their Death! It is also not known to most that: a Vestal Justice of the Supreme Court was required to be present at all events in the Coliseum. Most events were horrid executions of Capital Crimes Cases, The Vestal Justice assigned for the day sat to the far right of the Emperor. Roman citizens knew that: any Roman citizen condemned to die in the Coliseum could turn and Appeal to the Emperor for their life. If the Emperor gave a thumbs down -- they could then turn to the Vestal Supreme Justice and appeal for their life. If she believed that there was any law that could save them she had the Full Authority to overrule any Emperor of the Empire! Any time they had need to cross Rome they were carried in a military chariot with military body guards, and escorts. One went ahead to stop and clear all traffic for Her! On many occasions in National Emergency the Emperors called the Empire to Prayer and Fasting, they especially called all Vestal Virgins! The Records report they were saved many times by their Prayers and Fasting. In time some of the Highest Lady Justices converted to the Christian Faith. They had to give up their positions, titles, tenures, prestige, chariots, personal body guards, Professorships in the Vestal Roman College of Law and Justice, honors, pensions and take up a life of poverty and humble existence! Their sacrifice for Jesus Christ and the Christian Faith was honored by a marble plaque in the Roman Forum which remained for almost 2,000 years! This also bore down on some Church Fathers that they had a growing number of members that followed the teachings and vows of chastity, celibacy, abstinence and total poverty. So some Popes thought it to be ok to take Jesus Christ out back to the wood shed and tell Him like it is and give Him the where to fors! They told Him we are going to make you the official GOD of the Roman Empire... but we have a large number of Vestal Virgins, Nuns, Convents, Monks, Monasteries and hundreds of thousands of Churches and Church Workers that we have required and Demanded to take the vows to be Chaste, Celibate, Abstinent, and Poor and it just wouldn't be fair to them unless You Are Also! They did this because they could not demand the monks and nuns to be celibate if Jesus Christ was not celibate! A monk named Damien in the 1100's wrote Pope Leo the Ninth to persuade him to sanction all sex to increase church revenues, taxes called indulgences. It was known that straights were taxed and gays were not. It did not seem fair. Straights had to "Pay To Play" then so should the gays. It was ordered The Church was pressured by a growing number of Radical Heterosexuals to start sanctions and taxes on gays. By the way the monk Damian who was opposed to gays started a new form of worship now known as S&M. He believed in flagellation. It took on in the Catholic Church and was used against the Protestants in the horrific Inquisition, In the last years of Jesus Christ's life He did have a Gay marriage and married His Beloved named John.

As is true with John Boswell . He was gay , and focused all his study's on trying to prove that even God and the bible was ok with his choices. Aside from that of course you will assume and may even call me a bigot or homophobe but the truth is I'm neither of those as I've never really had any opinion on the matter of personal choices .

As a child growing up I had had sexual desire for my male friends and female and I explored both.

These truths were always clear to me.As I got a little older I stopped engaging in sexual conduct with males and decided to follow Jesus and asked him to help me and be the person he created me to be. I stopped doing what I knew was wrong and now I don’t have any desire for men. God created everything to fulfill a specific role and it is our fallen nature that courses these things to occur. But to God even our best righteousness is part of the old nature and sin is who we are until we come to Jesus Christ. Our very best is like filthy rags before him. But claiming that we hate certain people because of there behaviour is completely wrong (of course I know there are some groups of Christians who preach Hate) and I’m sorry for there behaviour which is vile and they will end up in hell before what they condemn others for. We see Homosexuality as a sin and part of our old nature but everything else comes from the same vine. I was a heroin addict for most of my adult life and once I was set free from it I have great love for those still bound by it and there is a certain comradeship between us because I was there. And I feel that way for all my fellow human Beings from every walk of sinful life. Jesus is holding out his hands to embrace the person even with there sin. But he is very clearly also showing the way to have your sins cleansed and for you to be empowered by his Holy Spirit.

Thank you for sharing your story. GOD LOVES YOU, Jesus Christ Loves You! They love all their creation! So many people abuse the name of God and Jesus Christ. So many call themselves Christians and abuse others with hate, prejudice and discrimination! Jesus Christ taught love and acceptance of all others especially and including Gays and Lesbians. The oldest texts of the Bible used to contain pro Gay verses! On two occasions in the first One Thousand Years of Christianity investigations were called for by the full assembly of all officials of the Christian Church to mandate a thorough research team of theologians to determine what the Bible taught regarding same sex love, etc. In the first investigation in the first 500 years it was found that there was not so much as a single verse that was anti gay! In fact the Bible was found to be Gay Friendly and Pro Gay! This was investigated again 500 years later and it was noted that the Bible had been changed so much that it was becoming neutral on the subject! Radical Heterosexuals began to take over the church. They set about to promote their Radical Heterosexual Agenda and were so blatant about it they shoved it into people's faces! After the year 1100 anti gay verses began to appear in the Bible. Stories and verses began to be completely rewritten to become outrageous anti gay stories! Radical Heterosexual Popes ordered more than several hundred complete rewrites, edits, redactions and changes to the Bible. Some experts claim to have counted more than 250,000 deliberate changes and alterations to the Bible! The majority were NOT benign, nor improvements, many were out and out malicious. The famed Scientist Isaac Newton was told after church one Sunday that what you heard in Church today is NOT the Word of God NOR the scriptures we grew up with! Isaac Newton took note and researched this his whole life and found his parents were right -- the Bible had been rewritten many, many times! He believed a substantial number occurred in the days of Emperor Constantine. In addition many important persons and names have been deliberately obfuscated, changed, concealed and even deliberately hidden and or altered! For example: Jesus isn't even the Savior's name! There is no one in the Bible named Jesus! The Savior's name is "Yashua"! The proper translation of His name would be: "Yashua" to Joshua! There is NO "Mary" Magdalene. Mary Magdalene is really "Mirianne"! There is NO "Mary" Mother of Jesus in the Original Texts! Mary mother of Jesus is really "Miriam"! "Yashua" was raised by "Miriam" and was a friend of "Mirianne" Mary was chosen by Catholic translators to make her sound phonetically the same as the Roman Catholic "Mari"! "MIRIAM" IS NOT "MARY", and "MIRIAM" IS NOT "MARI" ! Roman Catholicism absorbed an enormous number of the Pagan Religions of Europe, Greece, and Asia including the Middle East. This was done through Ecumenical Councils to unify the Empire.: This is how Christianity suddenly acquired so many PAGAN teachings and rituals. Who is Mari? It is believed by some that MARI is in some regions the goddess of the BAAL Religion. She is the mother of the great god Lord Baal! Her official title is called: "Mari Mother Of God, Queen Of Heaven!" By the way, many of the other names in the NT are falsifications and or deliberate corruptions. The Heterosexual Popes even removed verses of Jesus Christ's many LOVE affairs and encounters with gays. Jesus was bi-sexual in His early life. Jesus Christ was very open about His gay LOVES and Gay all night dates! Clement was Puritanical cloistered and out of touch with reality and was rabid foaming at the mouth against gays, people having love, dating and romances, etc. He called for all Churches to get knives and stab, kill and slaughter and murder such people across the Empire. Churches wrote back and politely said: Apparently you have never read the Bible. Both Old and New Testament Include the stories of the love lifes of most Bible persons INCLUDING JESUS CHRIST! Clement ordered all Bibles returned to the monastery that was assigned to make copies and ordered all Bibles passages to be deleted of Jesus Christ's many love affairs! Popes ordered the verses, stories and passages of Jesus Christ's sex life to be completely removed! The Roman Catholic Religion and Church was the official Federal State Church of Rome: the village and then the Roman Kingdom, then the Republic, then the Empire! The Roman Catholic Religion and Church was originally founded NOT by Jesus Christ, but hundreds and hundreds of years before Jesus Christ, by Romulus and Remus. On the very day they founded Rome they dedicated it to VESTA, in honor of their mother who was a VESTAL VIRGIN! She had escaped the horror and slaughter of the TROJAN WAR and the burning and destruction of TROY. The Catholic Church had the Vestal Virgins. They attended the official College of the Vestal Virgins. They were educated in law, property titles, deeds, wills, civil law, criminal law, etc., and the proper recording and preservation of these. It is NOT known to most but they achieved the Highest Honor in the Empire and became their equivalent of Supreme Court Justices serving life terms. They Ruled in Power greater than the Emperor! Any Judicial Decision by an Emperor could be appealed to the Supreme Council of the Vestal Virgins. They had the Power and Authority to overrule the Emperor! However, if they failed in their duties, especially remaining chaste and Virgin, then the Emperor could order their Death! It is also not known to most that: a Vestal Justice of the Supreme Court was required to be present at all events in the Coliseum. Most events were horrid executions of Capital Crimes Cases, The Vestal Justice assigned for the day sat to the far right of the Emperor. Roman citizens knew that: any Roman citizen condemned to die in the Coliseum could turn and Appeal to the Emperor for their life. If the Emperor gave a thumbs down -- they could then turn to the Vestal Supreme Justice and appeal for their life. If she believed that there was any law that could save them she had the Full Authority to overrule any Emperor of the Empire! Any time they had need to cross Rome they were carried in a military chariot with military body guards, and escorts. One went ahead to stop and clear all traffic for Her! On many occasions in National Emergency the Emperors called the Empire to Prayer and Fasting, they especially called all Vestal Virgins! The Records report they were saved many times by their Prayers and Fasting. In time some of the Highest Lady Justices converted to the Christian Faith. They had to give up their positions, titles, tenures, prestige, chariots, personal body guards, Professorships in the Vestal Roman College of Law and Justice, honors, pensions and take up a life of poverty and humble existence! Their sacrifice for Jesus Christ and the Christian Faith was honored by a marble plaque in the Roman Forum which remained for almost 2,000 years! This also bore down on some Church Fathers that they had a growing number of members that followed the teachings and vows of chastity, celibacy, abstinence and total poverty. So some Popes thought it to be ok to take Jesus Christ out back to the wood shed and tell Him like it is and give Him the where to fors! They told Him we are going to make you the official GOD of the Roman Empire... but we have a large number of Vestal Virgins, Nuns, Convents, Monks, Monasteries and hundreds of thousands of Churches and Church Workers that we have required and Demanded to take the vows to be Chaste, Celibate, Abstinent, and Poor and it just wouldn't be fair to them unless You Are Also! They did this because they could not demand the monks and nuns to be celibate if Jesus Christ was not celibate! A monk named Damien in the 1100's wrote Pope Leo the Ninth to persuade him to sanction all sex to increase church revenues, taxes called indulgences. It was known that straights were taxed and gays were not. It did not seem fair. Straights had to "Pay To Play" then so should the gays. It was ordered The Church was pressured by a growing number of Radical Heterosexuals to start sanctions and taxes on gays. By the way the monk Damian who was opposed to gays started a new form of worship now known as S&M. He believed in flagellation. It took on in the Catholic Church and was used against the Protestants in the horrific Inquisition, In the last years of Jesus Christ's life He did have a Gay marriage and married His Beloved named John. In the Greek language and culture the word Beloved is used to describe one's most intimate lover and spouse David and Jonathan of the Old Testament also had a Gay Marriage! According to ancient Jewish wedding practices: they had a dinner to announce their Union, and then they had an exchange of wedding gifts which was each gifted to the other brand new raiment clothes and they then took up living together as Spouses! The Bible says that their love for each h other exceeded that for a woman! God knew this and Samuel knew this. But God approved! God Almighty never sent Samuel to confront David!

I believe in everything that the Church teaches regarding homosexuality, and that is that God made us in His image with distinct roles in mind. It is OUR choice whether we listen to Him or not. So, overall, yes, I agree that we should speak out about these sort of things. But I can guarantee you, as someone who just recently was able to view my life decisions in a different light, some of the hateful comments I'm seeing below WILL NOT make someone want to grow closer to God. I was pretty firmly grounded in my beliefs regarding homosexuality, abortion, etc. before, but the ONLY way I was ever swayed and began to truly understood God's reasoning behind these things is because of His forgiveness and love and mercy. And I believe that this should be the main point when talking about stricter choices we as Christians must make. Although yes, there ARE eternal consequences for denying God's compassion and love...talking constantly about brimstone and fire will not get us anywhere. Speaking from experience, it only rouses anger and misunderstanding in our hearts. I will definitely confess that it IS because we are sinners, and as sinners we are easily misled and desire to do what we think is best for us, instead of God. But we need to make the message of God clearest in this sense: God wants what is best for us. God will love us always, and though we do not always understand why he makes things the way they are, in the end, we just have to trust in Him and know that we will be alright if we listen to what He has to say, above anything else. God will always be there, waiting to welcome you back to Him with open arms, so please, humble yourselves and realize that in the end...earthly distractions such as these are not worth it. God will always be worth it.

Now with that said, sin will always be a struggle in our lives whether it be, lying, stealing, killing, hate, fornication, homosexuality, pride, jealousy, greed, unruly tongue etc.etc.. We must ask forgiveness and pray the Holy Spirit help us with our infirmities. Refusing to accept what God has ordained and changing his truth to lies will sent you to Hell.

I love Rick Warren and the way he explains this issue. When Jesus was on earth, He hung out with sinners. The reason sinners felt comfortable hanging out with Him was because He was not judgmental and He displayed His genuine love for them. He accepted them. That's is not to say that He accepted their sin. For many, they are unable to change their sinful behavior on their own. He befriended them and when they came to know Jesus and accept Him, He changed them. It did not take shaming or taking away their rights. He did not attack them for being sinners. He loved them into the kingdom without sacrificing truth. "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. And we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only Begotten of the Father, full of GRACE and TRUTH." If only His people would so behave among sinners that they can behold His glory through us and be drawn to Him. Too many Christians are only too anxious to proclaim truth to the exclusion of His marvelous grace. Unfortunately, before non Christians can learn anything about Jesus, they run into Christians who focus on their sin and don't make any effort to befriend them and enter into their sometimes messy lives. But Jesus went there, He got to know sinners and many of those sinners were transformed by their relationship with Him. Why don't we try that? Focus on extending grace to our fellow humans, while holding on to our beliefs based on the word of God. By the way, our beliefs do not require us to "protect the sanctity of marriage." Our beliefs DO require us to LOVE our neighbors in the way we would want everyone else to love us. Our beliefs DO require us to give everything we have in order benefit others because NOTHING in this world is important compared to eternity. Our beliefs DO require us to give to all who ask expecting nothing in return. Many of us are deep in the sin of covetousness and selfishness. We don't want to be inconvenienced or persecuted. But Jesus said, rejoice when you are persecuted because great will your reward be in heaven. Instead sometimes it seems that we are the ones persecuting others because they don't believe like us.

I was a Baptist Pastor and Missionary, but I am gay, medically proven during electronic shock therapy organized by a Dr who was President of the Baptist Church here at that time. It was horrific. I went through 13 years of reparative therapy and it did enormous damage. I am still married to my wife after 51 years and nursed her with MS at home for 23 years. But I strongly support gay marriage. Loving committed monogamous gay marriage for life is not condemned in the Bible anywhere. I have many gay friends who are firm Christians. I know them. I have seen their deep love and commitment. Its not wrong. BTW the Baptist Church told me I am not welcome to even attend the church, just because I am gay. I never was welcome to go to church. That was hard. I am now no longer a member of any church. I had to do that to protect myself from the church and from all the damage they have caused. The problems are definitely with the church, not the gay community. I have asked myself, what would I have done if I had known all that when I was a young teenager?

@@bluuryan Oh absolutely! However what you consider to be bothering, is actually called "witnessing" my friend and Christ told us that we ought to do just that even if it means ruffling a few feathers so be it That's the entire point of the gospel so that we could see how sinful we are when exposed to the light and accept Jesus into our hearts And there are many reasons why we should "bother" this community because may of those who associate themselves with this community are confused and I say that respectfully. They are genuinely confused as it relates to sexuality and many have admitted that they are looking for a sense of belonging and identity and that's quite okay; not knowing your identity right away is okay, that's why when we witness we show fallen man that those identity is in Jesus Many people have been rescued from themselves and an unknown identity through witnessing a d many more are yet to still be rescued and we will continue witnessing until everyone has been given an opportunity to either accept Jesus and that includes you my friend so please...do no be okay knowing that you are on your way to hell there is still hope

[@bluuryan]

I see that your heart is in the right place and the good intentions is appreciated. However we cannot just base our life on a story written by humans just like us. Even the most holy of people recognize that the Bible is to be interpreted and not taken literally. All humans make mistakes and the fear is that the bible was not written from gods words but of those who wrote the bible. Back then anyone could come up with a story and people would believe them because like us they were confused about life; they saught for a reason/truth behind our exsistence. If i had a time machine and went back in time before the bible was created and I created a story about human exsistence; I am sure if i convinced enough people, it would become one of the worlds largest religions. That being said what you call "witnessing" I should be allowed to do to the Christian community because I believe what you read is not being interpreted correctly. No one should be told that what they do may take them to hell. In perspective, what if those who wrote the bible were selfish and they wrote the bible in their thoughts to drive people from the real truth so they could have Paradise to themselves. My point being that I do not insert my beliefs into anyone's way of thinking unless asked for my opinion. The same should be for anyone. I will never walk into a church and say that anyone is going to hell for having a belief

[@TheHenok30]

If Rick Warren read the Hebrew & Aramaic Bible; then he would have realized that Scholars have made mistakes in their Translations & even lied in their translations b/c of their hatred for LGBT people, or possibly from self-loathing. - People, the Bible has been changed to forbid homosexuality. The original Aramaic text of 1 Cor. 6:9 actually says that the "corrupted (depraved) ones" and "those who rape men (a man)" won't inherit the kingdom of God. Romans Chapter one is referring to idolators. Both the men & women left the natural use of each other. That could mean celibacy or bestiality based on the previous verses. The Aramaic text doesn't say that the men were sleeping with each other afterwards. The text says "male AGAINST male." Those words suggest violence more than sexual activity. - The Hebrew word Qedeshim means "male prostitutes" NOT "sodomites." The destruction of Sedom & Gamorah was because of arrogance, violence & mistreatment of strangers, etc. Lev. 18:22 actually says: "you shall not lie with a male on the bed of a woman (wife), it is an abhorrence."

But neither will liars, thieves murders...etc. It's all sin. Not one worse than the other. Just one sin will keep you out! This is another thought... God doesn't mention that handicapped or mentally ill or physically sick people go to hell.. He didn't mention those condition being a sin. And there are proven test studies where they know their not born that way. but homosexuality is a sin. And it defiles our bodies which is His, He designed and created it. God is always Right.
