The most bigoted people on earth are LGBTQ. If you don't bow to them, accept their child grooming, accept their groins in our faces while waving the hijacked rainbow gifted to us by God, embrace their way of life and sin, and lie for them by denying Gods creation of a MAN AND WOMAN, there fore make us call God a liar, you are a" REEEE!!! AUTO-BIGOT!" They toss the term out in seconds. Because they know in their hearts they are wrong and in sin, and at war with God. They have zero argument, facts, or morality on their side. So they pounce with Bigot and Phobe attacks to try and shut you down and get the leftist mob (And fully compromised Christians in name only who speak fluent Christianese but have ZERO relationship with God) to ruin you and cause violence against you. Whether that be words, physical attack, loss of job, or living in fear. This is Sodom and Gamorah right ibefore our eyes and they want into our minds and into our homes and will never stop as their sin cannot be sated. It grows and grows which is things are getting more and more perverse. They get off on the power that they are decimating the Church, good peoples lives, and our civilization.

[@HeatherAngus-vj2jq]

Acting that way is no excuse. No matter what you have experienced, it’s not worse than what Jesus Christ had to endure for all of us. This is just one of the many reasons as to why we need God, Jesus, and the Bible. I mean, Atheists and the LGBT community talk to us Christians about morals, when their morals are usually backwards or even sometimes correct, when it comes to certain things, but it’s all their opinion only, since they don’t believe in God and can never answer to why they believe their opinions about morals are correct. It’s just “that’s how I think and feel, so, it must be true.” Which isn’t good enough. Also, I think that Atheists are being way more cruel to us Christians than Christians are to Atheists. This video right here is a great example.

[@normanwhite6677]

Another reason people lash out this way is guilt. They know, deep down, that they're wrong but they're looking for someone to put a stamp of approval on their behavior. This young man wanted Frank to give him the thumbs up for his behavior and obviously didn't want to hear anything that might make him feel guilty. If you go back to when Nathan told David the parable about the man's pet lamb being eaten by his greedy neighbor you'll see that. David lashed out and demanded the man be executed. That's pretty harsh punishment for eating a pet lamb. When David heard that parable, he saw himself and didn't like the picture. He even talks about this incident and the guilt of his sin in Psalm 32.

[@mrs.thomas-usmcwife5686]

@@HeatherAngus-vj2jq I never said that I excuse their behavior. However, I understand why they do it, especially having suffered trauma myself. No, what they endured wasn't worse than Jesus on the cross, but I won't tell a person to suck it up or tell them their pain/feelings are invalid because of that. It was still pain and hurt that they didn't deserve. Most of the time it was while they were children which makes it worse. I don't think this video shows that person being cruel to Frank, just angry and stubborn in their sin, which we all do. We are not better than them. Just forgiven.

[@mrs.thomas-usmcwife5686]

@@normanwhite6677 Yes, many times it is guilt. Over the years I have learned something about the LGBT+ community. Alot of the reason that they are how they are is because of trauma or neglect, especially as a child. They then find someone in that community that relates to them and makes them "feel good" or comfortable. They are accepted. Unfortunately the Christian community has failed in the area of reaching out with love and compassion on someone who doesn't fit the stereotype of masculine men or feminine women but putting them in the LGBT category and thinking that they are doomed for that lifestyle. They then get shunned and treated like outcasts. We also have only recently encouraged counseling for mental health and traumatic events, though some denominations still don't. Even Jesus talked about having good counsel in your life.

Just filter your responses - any response that's from the ego / emotion, don't let it have it's way. Just point out facts about God and point out how even you/me are accountable in the same way. People having certain desires does not mean they were born that way, otherwise every sinful desire can be deemed just fine "because I was born that way" and hence any action because of that desire becomes permissible. Certain behaviors are sin, God makes it clear 100% of us are guilty, and God offers forgiveness to us having judged our sin on the cross. While we may not be 100% perfect in thought, word and deed, for us to refuse to stop certain behaviors that God says is sinful, is simply rejecting God's forgiveness. Every believer has to stop behaviors / feelings / emotions they would rather act on - LGBT is no different.

I'm struggling with same sex attraction myself, but it upsets me how some people attack others for their lack of self-control. If I backslide or give in, it's my decision, my fault, and definitely not someone else's.

[@anne.ominous]

Before Cain murdered his brother, the Lord said to him in Genesis 4:7, “Sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.” I think virtually everyone struggled with sexual sin at some point in their lives. Maybe it’s a man who struggles with his desire for other men. Maybe it’s a single woman who struggles with pornography, or an engaged couple who are trying to repent of fornication. Perhaps it’s a married man who wrestles with his lust for other women, etc. Sexual temptation can befall anyone. We as Christians, recognizing sin as sin, ought to meet each other in love on these issues -not excusing them as though they are not issues at all- but encouraging each other and offering our support to help each other cease and pursue God.

[@AlrightDave]

@@hongotedesco8931 interesting. Do they hold onto traditional/biblical Christian beliefs?

[@Ok_Contest]

@@hongotedesco8931 It's clear that person doesn't want to embrace having these feelings towards the same sex. Why are you encouraging them and telling them to "embrace it"?? Are we supposed to embrace every sexual urge we have? Certainly not. As he said, these people that are LGBT lack self-control. Slowly coming to the realization that many people oppose the true God because sex and lust have become their god. Sex rule their lives and many will compromise their morals for it. For example, having relations with the same sex or someone they aren't married to even though there is guilt. Having sexual relations with people they don't actually care for. Lusting after relationships and lusting for romantic love with another person. Cheat on their partner and many more examples of unholy living. You may not see it, but these and all the other sins are the things that causes our society and civilization to decline. Being gay is nothing new and has been around for centuries. It's an anomaly and it is not normal. And I believe struggle in this context means the same as it does in any other context. "Coming out" is still a thing and will always be a thing. Same sex attraction is not natural. Those people you claim aren't struggling have given into their lustful desires so they have no desire to live righteously when it comes to their sexual desires. I can assure you however that they were not born that way and it was definitely a struggle in the beginning for them to accept that they have these feelings towards the same sex because it isn't normal to have those feelings. They got tired of fighting it and resisting so they gave into their desires telling themselves it's ok. It isn't natural yet this world has lied to them and told them it's ok, so it becomes easier to give into those temptations. It's no different than a thief stealing a penny, knowing it is wrong to steal, but thinking to themselves it's only a penny, I'm not hurting anyone. Stealing is stealing no matter how big or small and no matter who is hurt by it. Sexual sin is sexual sin and no one should be having sex with the same sex or be having sex outside of marriage. I pray that you wake up and see the world for what it actually is and stop wearing the veil of lies you tell yourself that the pursuit of happiness as long as you're not hurting someone else is the purpose of life.

HERE SOME SCIENTIFIC FACTS ABOUT HOMOSEXUALITY: + The WHO, World Health Organization, stated clearly, that homosexuality not a disease or disorder, but a healthy natural sexual orientation. + It is most likely innate (determined by SNP in several genes and by antibodies (NLGN4Y) during pregnancy), as the opposite sex is never sexual attractive to people born homosexual. + Evolution scientists stated in several publications, that homosexuality exists since sexuality exists, since 385 million years. + They also stated, that having homosexual members in the own tribe, gives several evolutionary advantages, which explains the permanent share of 4-10% homosexuals of the population. >> So, the question would be rather: why putting an ethical limit on homosexuality if its natural, healthy and even with a natural sense? >> Especially now as more and more homosexuals marry and adopt and raise kids that else wise would have no parents.

So, can I ask you, brother, Have you already taken the log out of your own eye? Are you sinless already, so you judge their sin? Paul says Sodom is a sin. Jesus say divorce is adultery. Is Adultery any better than Sodom? Do you go after women who divorce their abusive husband preach they should submit? The women go through abortion. Do you hate these women like you do with the LGBTQ+? If the LGBTQ+ hate Jesus, they will not come to us. We have nothing to do with them. But if they indeed are seeking God, should we really meet them with "your sinners, you must change first!" I am not saying it is not a sin. We should treat the vulnerable ones that came to us and ask for an answer as to how we treat people who divorce. Of course, if they join the church, then lead church brother sisters to go for enjoying flesh indulgent. That is another matter.

@@Captain-Cosmo They were correct! But it’s not blind faith, it’s faith based in knowledge.

[@Captain-Cosmo]

@@stanleyatkins4226 I certainly am aware that the word "faith" is commonly used to express a level of confidence based upon knowledge. For example, I have "faith" that the sun will rise tomorrow because 1) I have knowledge of basic celestial mechanics which accurately predicts celestial events, and 2) I have personally witnessed more than 20,000 mornings in which the sun did rise as expected. Are you suggesting that the "faith" propagated by religion is similar? What "knowledge" do you have that supports your belief?

[@rocketscientisttoo]

It is very difficult to speak with someone who has a "I am god" complex, for whatever reason, and only wants to vent over real or even perceived injustices done to them; but the goal is always the same, healing. We all have experienced some type of injustice as we mature to adulthood because we live in a fallen world. If we are in a positive community with others their input often helps us get over this bump in the road of life, if not this bump czn quickly turns into a pothole or even a sinkhole.

Frank: "I love you. I want you to be with me in Paradise forever! So repent and believe in Jesus so that you can have eternal life." Gay guy: "Stop it! You're making people hate me!"

That is absolutely true. If morality is just a matter of opinion, then it is nothing more than an interchangeable set of rules. Then there is no right and no wrong. No good and no evil. Everything is negotiable. What these people obviously don't understand is that no one is forced into Christianity. But if you want to become a Christian, there are rules that you have to follow. You don't bring your own set of rules or tinker with the others. Otherwise it's better to stay off the playing field.

@@scottgodlewski306 you are contradicting yourself. First you say he is not right but then you say it is your opinion but if it's just your opinion then that means it's not either wrong or right, just how you feel. The original response was saying that Frank is factually correct. Your opinion is irrelevant. And you seemed to have a negative reaction when shadowcolorado said "what does it matter - It's all subjective right ?". You mention that it's "unfortunate" and potentially dangerous but scientists have recognized that this is in fact the case: "The universe that we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but pitiless indifference.” - Richard Dawkins

[@asiahcrutchfield5344]

@@scottgodlewski306 @0:26 - 0:36 Frank says that without God there is no objective standard of right and wrong and that all morality is just a matter of human opinion which is where the Dawkins quote comes into play. The quote says that we find in a universe that is not designed and is just physical matter that there is no such thing as right or wrong, just pitiless indifference. So the point is that you are saying it's "unfortunate" that the OC thinks "it doesn't matter" when that is, in fact, the case. To you, "of course it matters" but that is just your opinion and opinion that is not binding and no one else is under no obligation to accept. The view that it's "unfortunate" is not better or worse, just different. It's the same as if you thought that chocolate ice cream is gross and that it should not be sold in stores. You can feel that way but it will continue to be sold in stores and companies don't need to listen to your protests to stop selling it. So that's what Frank was right about.

Also, it makes zero sense that you would come to a Christian channel to talk to “closeted people.” Furthermore, if you’ve read the Bible, then you know that it condemns all sex outside the context of a marriage between a man and a woman. So when you say that the Bible is not an excuse to be in the closet, what you should really be saying is that those people who are dealing with same sex attraction need to know that they are loved and they need to be born again to overcome that unnatural attraction. The unloving thing to do would be to affirm the behavior that the Bible forbids and in doing so, comfort those people into eternal damnation.

There are many "Christians" that don't respect the biblical worldview about sin either. They rationalize that they can do anything they want as long as they just believe in Christ's existence.
