" Do not be deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, NOR HOMOSEXUALS.....shall inherit the kingdom of God ...... And such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God". (I Corin. 6:9-11)
You can be set free from this demonic sin through the power of Jesus Christ. Many homosexuals have been completely set free to live a holy life through the power of Jesus Christ.
It can't be pr oven! Yes, you may have "feelings" for someone of the same gender, but it's only a sin to act on them! No body's born that way, and Jesus Christ did come and die for our sins.
Nobody is born necrophiliac, it is a choice
Nobody is born a rapist, it is a choice
Nobody is born with freckles, it is a choice
Nobody is born Christian, it is a choice
And Christianity will never be "pr oven" to be wrong. Proof will be ignored or twisted, as it always has.
nope Only If you prove humans are beyond doubt are unable to "choose" and control their feelings, emotions and urges, then that will that prove Christianity is wrong....but you would have pr oven that humans are no better than a wild animal...
but look around you.... humans are able to control their feelings, emotions and urges
The Fundamental nature of what the debate is on is because many Christians look at homosexuality as a choice, then its not authentic to the person, and thereby it is a sin because it is perverting the true purposes of relationships that God set down on this Earth.
After all, the Bible has a strong call in its text towards authenticity "For whom God has put together, let no person separate". If Homosexuality is pr oven beyond a doubt not to be a choice, then it simply gets put in the category of not being a sin. Doing this, would logically make people wonder what were the Biblical writers referring to when they wrote homosexuality in the Bible. What was the purpose of that?
It is plausible that the spirit could have inspired people to write that in the Bible so that the Bible could attract as much of a strong base of believers it could (given the ideas that were around at that time regarding homosexuals). If you think about it, if homosexuality did not exist in the Bible, the early Christians would have a hard time distinguishing themselves from the ancient Greeks back then, and they would have had a hard time distinguishing themselves as something categorically different and purer ya know? Because I would surmise back then people didn't understand homosexuality as many seem to not understand today ya know?
So there is a plausible reason that it could have been included, but the Bible could still be counted as true ya know?
