    Gay/Lesbian

    (Dagda;67519) Please note that I acknowledge this and am in turn asking whether a specific form of love-that between a husband and wife as God intends- can be found in homosexual relationships as well. I'd say that I'm trying to tear away the cobwebs and focus on the real matter that the two...

    Gay/Lesbian

    (Dagda;67513) The world we live in may be one of black and white, but our flawed natures mean that we perceive all- even scripture- in varied shades of grey, and must make educated guesses when attempting to discern right and wrong from the blurred masses. The condemnation of the Sodomites'...

    Gay/Lesbian

    (AusDisciple;67073) Wait a minute.... I think it just clicked!! I still have much to learn but was Adam then banished from the garden so that he needed to have faith in God for salvation rather than cheating with the eating of the fruit of the tree of life? The price had not been paid yet for...

    Gay/Lesbian

    (AusDisciple;67069) Guys, I realise that Jesus Christ is the tree of life but I'm not making the connection with the reason Wayne mentioned the Genesis account of banishing Adam from eating from the tree of life in response to me saying I am eternally grateful to our Lord for transforming my...

    Gay/Lesbian

    (AusDisciple;67066) I'm not quite sure I follow what you mean there. In that passage, God is banishing Adam from the garden so he does NOT reach out his hand and take from the tree of life.That is very different from reaching out for Jesus Christ to be the core of your life. Jesus Christ is the...

    Gay/Lesbian

    (AusDisciple;67064) I'm so grateful that God didn't turn away from me. I was most of the above. His grace is sufficient but we must put forth our hand.Gen 3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take...

    Gay/Lesbian

    (The White Wolf;67057) THEY ARE STILL HUMANS DAMNIT! THEY STILL HAVE ROOM FOR GRACE!I don't know where you get off calling them an abomination. No one is an abomination. Everyone has room for grace. You know nothing of sin or grace or the great word of our Lord. Only the Lord has the right...

    Gay/Lesbian

    (The White Wolf;67049) To everyone who promotes hate for homosexuals, think oh what christ himself would do when he would talk to a homosexual.Would he call them names? NO!Would he degrade them? NO!Would he take away their humanity? NO!Would he banish them to hell? NO!Would he say that "God...

    Gay/Lesbian

    (Aquila;66996) Men sin when they are led away by their own lusts. Many of those lusts are rooted in THE FLESH. What is THE FLESH? The flesh is this humanity, this human body that we have. It's made up of genetics and other biological aspects. When one has homosexual attraction it very well...

    Gay/Lesbian

    (Aquila;66991) I don't think a gay person can just "choose" to be straight. Think about it, those who think that a gay person can just choose to be straight obviously feel that they could just choose to be gay. However, I know that things just wouldn't "work" if I were to even try to be gay...

    Gay/Lesbian

    (Dagda;66752) That's precisely the point I'm going out of my way not to make. I'm not talking about whether a homosexual lifestyle is right or wrong, I'm talking about the importance of remembering to love the sinner despite hating the sin, and arguing that a failure of compassion in this regard...

    Gay/Lesbian

    (Dagda;66726) Well, regarding homosexuals: It sounds like you hate them. It sounds like you think they deliberately set out to go against the teachings of God (rather than setting out on a course of action without taking God's word into account one way or another). It sounds like the hundreds of...

    Gay/Lesbian

    (RobinD69;66717) What we must understand is that with any sin or sinner we must go to them in love. I know that a liberal perspective would have us accept their chosen lifestyle as normal and that if we love them then we will allow them to love who they choose. This is a false perspective...

    Gay/Lesbian

    (Dagda;66624) Wayne Murray. . .I started writing up a long response, but in the end what I have to say boils down to this: For one who condemns others as poisonous vipers, you seem to be carrying alot of venom yourself. Go for it, a long response would reveal much. I guess people should close...

    Gay/Lesbian

    Most people that have this kind of reprobate (rejected) mind are heterophobic and Christophobic. We do need laws to protect against this kind of "hate crime". I can never remember that Scripture where people make right wrong and wrong right, prophecy fulfilled. Exactly where does the politically...

    You are correct but the spiritual war continues (ongoing) and will not end until Christ has put His enemies under foot and delivered to God the Kingdom.1Co 15:23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. 1Co 15:24 Then cometh the...

    Revelation 12: 1-12 is parenthetical and esoteric

    Hey Tom,When did the war in heaven end, is it written? Is war in heaven spiritual in nature? The repeating of the word “and” at the start of consecutive paragraphs is the figure of speech called Polysyndeton. Each paragraph of a Polysyndeton is independent, essential, and emphatic, without any...

    Gay/Lesbian

    Under the pretense of tolerance we are being poisoned with gay and lesbian perversion. Webster’s definition of tolerance: 1 a) a tolerating or being tolerant, especially of views, beliefs, practices, etc. of others that differ from ones own freedom from bigotry or prejudice Most people are...

    Yes, Satan will be revealed in his time (II Thes.2:1-12). However the overspreading wings of deceit is happening now (Dan.9:27). The war in heaven is ongoing until Satan is booted out, it got really fierce in (Dan.10:13). We need our armour on and in place to fight the spiritual battle raging...

    No, this is excellent.All the timings people get into with (42 or 5) months, and (time times and the dividing of time), etc, and etc. They often forget there are "TWO" beasts, a political beast and a religious beast. Well the locust army swarm will be in their season. God uses the natural He is...
