That is not meditating on the verse and that is an inaccurate interpretation of what the verse is trying to convey than

2020-10-28 17:51:06 UTC  

@chaz @Osha19 you both are right.

2020-10-28 17:51:14 UTC  

Not completely

2020-10-28 17:51:22 UTC  

But points of your arguments are right

2020-10-28 17:51:46 UTC  

@chaz the Leviticus verse for example

2020-10-28 17:51:56 UTC  

Means exactly what you think it does

2020-10-28 17:52:03 UTC  

Eagle you cannot take a verse in the bible and just get a definition from words definitions. Its not a cut clear book.

2020-10-28 17:52:09 UTC  

Homosexuality is a sin.

2020-10-28 17:52:30 UTC  

Based on the teachings of Christianity for thousands of years

2020-10-28 17:52:34 UTC  

But

2020-10-28 17:52:41 UTC  

Jesus preached that all of us sin

2020-10-28 17:52:43 UTC  

For example

2020-10-28 17:53:08 UTC  

Your sin carries as much weight in God’s eyes as a gay man’s

2020-10-28 17:53:10 UTC  

You like

2020-10-28 17:53:15 UTC  

If you lie

2020-10-28 17:53:19 UTC  

That’s just as bad

2020-10-28 17:53:24 UTC  

If you don’t accept someone

2020-10-28 17:53:26 UTC  

That’s just as bad

2020-10-28 17:53:39 UTC  

The moral wrongs of Christianity have the exact same weight

2020-10-28 17:53:46 UTC  

But that weight was carried on the cross

2020-10-28 17:53:58 UTC  

Of course we have to repent and trust in Gid

2020-10-28 17:54:01 UTC  

God*

2020-10-28 17:54:04 UTC  

But it’s not easy

2020-10-28 17:54:20 UTC  

Jesus taught us all to be loving of eachother

2020-10-28 17:54:31 UTC  

Because no-one is without sin

2020-10-28 17:54:37 UTC  

^^

2020-10-28 17:54:57 UTC  

thats not what I am arguing about.

2020-10-28 17:55:06 UTC  

You are arguing about interpretation

2020-10-28 17:55:09 UTC  

Correct?

2020-10-28 17:55:28 UTC  

There’s a verse in Romans, I forget what exact one it is

2020-10-28 17:55:36 UTC  

I agree with eagle of course we should accept gay people

2020-10-28 17:55:41 UTC  

yes. But merely reading a verse without context is not reading a verse.

2020-10-28 17:55:56 UTC  

What chaz was arguing was that homosexuality is not a sin

2020-10-28 17:56:15 UTC  

But it basically talks about how the different beliefs in Christianity. Should be accepted because we are all brothers and sisters in Christ

2020-10-28 17:56:18 UTC  

A good analogy I know is: Trust Jesus like you would a parachute. You’re going to have to jump into eternity, but you don’t know when. Have Jesus like a parachute and you know that when the jump comes, you will be alright.

2020-10-28 17:56:42 UTC  

So if one Christian believes homosexuality Isn’t a sin, then you should accept their beliefs and mind your own

2020-10-28 17:56:58 UTC  

The analogy used had to do with scripture

2020-10-28 17:57:14 UTC  

When two Christians interpret scripture different

2020-10-28 17:57:21 UTC  

It’s basically saying

2020-10-28 17:57:23 UTC  

@Eagle thanks

2020-10-28 17:57:33 UTC  

Accept the person even if they have a different interpretation
