Do you really think gays are your enemies? Many gays are truly kind and nice people. And you hate them? I think your self professing sinlessness just flew out the door.

Gaslighter….False Accuser…
You accuse a “gay agenda”….FALSE
You accuse “sinless” …………. FALSE
Not only are you lacking in Biblical Understanding… your lack of Understanding what English words mean is like listening to an Ignorant contestant on Family Feud.
So sad it laughable.

I presented plenty of proof!
Are you or are you not living 'sinless'???
What would you like to know about the Bible? I'll be glad to quote God for you.
You already admitted you HATE gays. I don't see that as laughable. And you didn't answer my simple questions. Let's try again.
"Do you really think gays are your enemies? Many gays are truly kind and nice people. And you hate them?"

I like that. Excellent. Note how God cleanses His church... Through His word. Through reading and preaching and hearing. Not just cursory glances every now and then, but daily study and deep investigation. And I don't mean one needs to learn Hebrew and Greek to do this. The Bible interprets itself. Gather together all texts that speak of the one topic, and with the Holy Spirit allow the truth to sanctify and change the mind.

We have a living Saviour. He is not in Joseph’s new tomb; He is risen from the dead and has ascended on high as a Substitute and Surety for every believing soul. “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ” (Romans 5:1). The sinner is justified through the merits of Jesus, and this is God’s acknowledgment of the perfection of the ransom paid for man. That Christ was obedient even unto the death of the cross is a pledge of the repenting sinner’s acceptance with the Father. Then shall we permit ourselves to have a vacillating experience of doubting and believing, believing and doubting? Jesus is the pledge of our acceptance with God. We stand in favor before God, not because of any merit in ourselves, but because of our faith in “the Lord our righteousness.”
Jesus stands in the holy of holies, now to appear in the presence of God for us. There He ceases not to present His people moment by moment, complete in Himself. But because we are thus represented before the Father, we are not to imagine that we are to presume upon His mercy and become careless, indifferent, and self-indulgent. Christ is not the minister of sin. We are complete in Him, accepted in the Beloved, only as we abide in Him by faith.
Perfection through our own good works we can never attain. The soul who sees Jesus by faith, repudiates his own righteousness. He sees himself as incomplete, his repentance insufficient, his strongest faith but feebleness, his most costly sacrifice as meager, and he sinks in humility at the foot of the cross. But a voice speaks to him from the oracles of God’s Word. In amazement he hears the message, “Ye are complete in Him.” Now all is at rest in his soul. No longer must he strive to find some worthiness in himself, some meritorious deed by which to gain the favor of God.
Beholding the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world, he finds the peace of Christ; for pardon is written against his name, and he accepts the Word of God, “Ye are complete in Him” (Colossians 2:10). How hard is it for humanity, long accustomed to cherish doubt, to grasp this great truth! But what peace it brings to the soul, what vital life! In looking to ourselves for righteousness, by which to find acceptance with God, we look to the wrong place, “for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). We are to look to Jesus; for “we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory” (2 Corinthians 3:18). You are to find your completeness by beholding the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
Standing before the broken law of God, the sinner cannot cleanse himself; but, believing in Christ, he is the object of His infinite love and clothed in His spotless righteousness. For those who believe in Christ, Jesus prayed: “Sanctify them through Thy truth: Thy word is truth: ...that they all may be one; as Thou, Father, art in Me, and I in Thee, that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that Thou hast sent me. And the glory which Thou gavest Me I have given them; that they may be one, even as We are one” (John 17:17-22). “O righteous Father, the world hath not known Thee: but I have known Thee, and these have known that Thou hast sent Me. And I have declared unto them Thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith Thou hast loved Me may be in them, and I in them” (Verses 25, 26).
Who can comprehend the nature of that righteousness which makes the believing sinner whole, presenting him to God without spot or wrinkle or any such thing? We have the pledged word of God that Christ is made unto us righteousness, sanctification, and redemption. God grant that we may rely upon His word with implicit trust, and enjoy His richest blessing. “For the Father Himself loveth you, because ye have loved Me, and have believed that I came out from God” (John 16:27).

Correct.
False Allegation “statement”…ignorantly adding a “question MARK” to a statement!
“you don’t”… begins your statement…
An adult should KNOW…”Do you” begins a question…
I ASKED YOU “what you believe”…
You refused to answer.
Agree that Applies to you.
I will continue to observe your accusations against others using words you are unable to state what those words YOU USE, mean TO YOU.
You are NOT satisfactory to have a serious conversation with…regarding Topics you don’t know what Words mean, spiritually or secularly.
So what happens to John who admitted that he could sin? Is John going to Hell.
1 John 1:8-10
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.
John included himself at least 13 times!
When you say you cannot sin you're lying to yourself!
I believe Jesus.
Luke 13:23-24
23 Then one said to Him, "Lord, are there few who are saved?" And He said to them,
24 "Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able.
How is quoting Jesus evasive?
And your unconfessed sins may be unforgiven sins!
Luke 18:10-14
10 "Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, 'God, I thank You that I am not like other men--extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. 12 I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.'
13 And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me a sinner!' 14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other;

Yet again…no Understanding of what that is saying.
Not Once did John say…”he HAVES no sin”.
Not Once have “I” said…that either.
“you are the ONE who made that claim “for me”… then LIED and said “I” claimed that.
Not once can you quote me … saying——>
1 John 8:
[8] If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
Go ahead….QUOTE me… QUOTE John…
… me Making that claim for myself, John for himself.
You said you NEVER sin!
"WE", John included himself. Was John a Christian?
You've done lots of talking here and you haven't said ANYTHING sinful?
Matthew 12:36
36 I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak,
You've never spoke a careless word here? Didn't you say, "I HATE gays"? Hmm?
"No in precise words I hate gays and support human love toward all people."
What a CONTRADICTION!

Having SIN and Committing SIN are two Different things!
I doubt you understand the Difference since you EVADED answering What you think the word SIN means.
