Wormwood, I see this more as I am a photographer and I did a shoot for an ad. Then Hugh used this ad in his magazine. No I don't have a problem. Again the baker is not performing the wedding, nor is he/she condoning homosexual activity. The baker is simply doing their job. Should Walmart...

Similar to a different post about what I said about Scripture, nothing of what God does in the creation process makes anything look billions of years old. It is the lens or process scientists use in evaluating or interpreting the data. God is not the deceiver, the scientist is confused.

Nothing about God changes. God is true and His truth remains. Within this, Scripture would remain unchanged also; only the hermeneutic and interpretation of Scripture would change.

As a business owner myself in the service business, I have serviced homosexual clients without any concern. I will say my business is in the construction field, so maybe some might view it differently. Yet I do not see anything wrong with baking a wedding cake for a homosexual couple...

Reconciliation back to God through Christ. Holiness: being set apart for God's purpose. Predestined to be conformed into the image of Christ. I believe these three cover every quality...

I may have missed something. I do not know of bakers that deny ordinary cakes to anyone.

But sin, taking opportunity through the commandment, produced in me [h]coveting of every kind; for apart [i]from the Law sin is dead. 9 I was once alive apart [j]from the Law; but when the commandment came, sin became alive and I died; 10 and this commandment, which was [k]to result in life...

I have a much clearer understanding of your view thank you. This makes a compelling case linguistically. I am not fully convinced, yet you have given me reason to investigate further. Thanks!

The interesting case is undercover journalists went to Muslim bakeries to have them make a "gay wedding cake". The muslim baker denied to make the cake, yet the gay rights activists were silent. http://louderwithcrowder.com/hidden-camera-gay-wedding-cake-at-muslim-bakery/

The only answer I have is because humanity is beset in sin.

I appreciate your disagreement, yet I do not quite comprehend what you convey "were being fully welcomed into the family of God." Is it not God who welcomed the Gentiles through the gift of the Holy Spirit? Did not the Gentiles know this, hence the need to stay humble and not grow prideful...

This was a response to the idea that,"Yet there are more posts from Christians online about the evil of gays than any single issue about straights." And from a biblical standpoint all are considered sin. And that would depend on who is judging the appearance. Here are a few sites...

Sorry but this is simply your interpretation of Scripture. This is not knowledge rather belief. You even explicitly state this in your opening statement, "I believe..."

So then who is Paul speaking of here? Romans 11:25 For I do not want you, brethren, to be uninformed of this mystery—so that you will not be wise in your own estimation—that a partial hardening has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in; and here...Romans 11:28 From...

Schreiner does deal with this further in his commentary...I probably should have posted this for your sake, yet for the sake of the paper it was not necessary... This period of a great Gentile ingathering is happening “until” (ἄχρι οὗ, achri hou) all Israel will be saved. I have already...

The answer is no. No one knows exactly, otherwise there would be no debate on the issue.

Some of this is attributed to the fact that there is a deliberate agenda from LGBT side to push their lifestyle as acceptable to society. The topic is communicated often, and is something that will be responded to by those who do not agree. I do not see thieves forming associations attempting...

The crux of this paper is to explore the mystery of the church in the New Testament. Specifically the mysteries mentioned by Paul and how they relate to the church will be addressed. Also determining which passage best defines the mystery of the church will be presented. The portions of...

I suggest you re-read what I posted. You have a contorted view of my conclusion.

4. Metaphors for the Church. To help us understand the nature of the church, Scripture uses a wide range of metaphors and images to describe to us what the church is like. There are several family images—for example, Paul views the church as a family when he tells Timothy to act as if all the...
