Lambano having a limited conversation with you and mentioning one thing… does NOT MEAN he is Limited to Multiple concerns in todays society.

Good grief… this is a limited text forum exchange among strangers….Not a some silly …. Oh, oh, you mentioned a specific behavior of people, you must have an Agenda regarding them…

Do you really think Lambano has made a list regarding Gays, he intends to present at a formal meeting? (Agenda)?

I see no such indication or slight hint of any such thing.

Out of proportion.
:rolleyes:
IOW, you're defending the gay agenda!

Modern, watered down, translation.

I guess you’re more comfortable with that version for some reason…

Question,

Is it okay to murder so long as you don’t make a “practice” of it?m

The word salad nonsense in modern translations is ridiculous.

8 Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil,

1 John 3:8 (GW)
8 The person who lives a sinful life belongs to the devil,

1 John 3:8 (MaceNT)
8 he that lives in sin, imitates the devil;

1 John 3:8 (MLB)
8 He who practices sin belongs to the devil,

1 John 3:8 (NET1)
8 The one who practices sin is of the devil,

1 John 3:8 (NASB77)

1 John 3:8 (NASB)
8 the one who practices sin is of the devil;

1 John 3:8 (NJB)

1 John 3:8 (NLT2)
8 But when people keep on sinning, it shows that they belong to the devil,

1 John 3:8 (TLB)
8 But if you keep on sinning, it shows that you belong to Satan,

1 John 3:8 (WEY)
8 He who is habitually guilty of sin is a child of the Devil,

Jesus said:
Mt 7 Narrow is the way to Life and FEW there be who find it.

BILLIONS of humans will burn in Hell. Including those who convince others that there is no eternal Hell fire!

Fully expect billions of dead human body’s and Souls will burn in hell.

Haven't seen anyone claim there is no eternal hell fire.

Luke 16:22-26
22 The rich man died and was buried. 23 And being in torments in Hell, ...24 Then he cried and said, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.' 25 But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted and you are tormented.

Yep. Dead Body's of humans are typically buried by living humans.

Yep. Unsaved Living souls Departed out from dead human bodies experience, misery in hell… Waiting For Judgement day.

No in precise words I hate gays and support human love toward all people.

Don’t you comprehend the simplest concept that hate AND love can be applicable toward a single person?

If you want to control and resolve your works of the flesh, then you have to get out of Sin Consciousness.

Hebrews 10:2 refers to this situation.

Sin Conscienceness in a Christian, is created and maintained by wrong faith........that is explained as trying to be good so that God will continue to accept you and keep you, vs, understanding that God only accepts you, saves you and keeps you = because of Jesus's obedience.

Once a Christian comes to understand that God only accepts them based on their Faith in Christ, and never their works or lifestyle or behavior, then that revelation frees them from sin consciousness.

Paul's verse reads......."Bring every thought to the obedience of Christ"....>"Casting down imaginations".

That simply means... your natural mind is going to want to try to earn salvation and keep it by earning it.......so, cast that down.....and replace it by the knowledge that you Saved and are eternally accepted and kept by God, only because of Christ's obedience.

Christ's Obedience is .......He went to The Cross for you, and that is where your salvation is found and kept. = Jesus is Salvation.

Simply understand that God saved you and keeps you, because of The Cross of Christ, and not because of your confessing sin, or trying to do good works.

What ive just explained to you, is Paul's teaching regarding how you "put on the Helmet of Salvation".

So Lambano has a choice of MILLIONS who need help, like an ocean. But He/she chose one gay guy out of that ocean.
Jack, why do you suppose Jesus chose a half-breed apostate Jew to be the righteous one in the Parable of the Good Samaritan?

If I had an agenda, it would be this: What did Paul mean by "walking in the Spirit", and why isn't happening in the Church (and in this forum) today? Is it us? Is it God?

How do I make "walking in the Spirit" part of my own life?

It is your Prerogative to go wandering seeking someone among many you can offer to help … same as it is an others Prerogative to aid another stumbling under his nose…

Obviously you are looking for followers to do as you do… and angry when another does not jump on your bandwagon … and reveal your anger by making false Allegations…

Is that what you learned to do from your self professed “Liberal Bible”?

And sometimes God decides who He wants you to help. And it might not be someone you want to help.

Here is another in the singular also

John 8:34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
Well this passage is hugely different from the others.

Sin here is a noun and not a verb. Also commiteth is the present active participle which tells us Jesus was saying whoever practices sin is a slave to sin. So it is not commiting a single sin, but living in a sin.

How about this one, its got a noun and verb combo


1 John 3:8 He that committeth sin (noun) is of the devil; for the devil sinneth (verb) from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

Rev 20 They will be tormented day and night FOREVER ...

You've never debated a JW?
Yep. Dead Body's of humans are typically buried by living humans.
Are they usually alive and CRYING, like the rich man who died but was quite alive/
Yep. Unsaved Living souls Departed out from dead human bodies experience, misery in hell… Waiting For Judgement day.
Death NEVER means cease to exist in the Bible. NEVER!

Why did you pick a gay man out of millions of people who need help? Your agenda is glaring.

It's a good thing you never make up lies. That would be sin.

Quote my "false allegations" O one who NEVER sins!
Is that what you learned to do from your self professed “Liberal Bible”?
It's a good thing you NEVER sin by lying!

Matthew 12:36-37 In the day of judgment. 37 For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned."

This thread is about whether it is possible to "sin no more". And I surmised that if Jesus told you he wanted you to show compassion to a gay man with AIDS, this would be the most probable case where you would disobey Jesus.

In the case of the author who wrote about his experience, he wasn't too thrilled either. But he obeyed Jesus because he loved Jesus. And the experience changed him.
