I have several homosexual friends
Will satan get into heaven?
He beleives in god.
Yeah thats what I thought Ulysses
Aww thanks, your personal mark that says I am wrong lets me know how much I am right.
I want to learn hebrew
That would be cool, i could read the original bible
Doesnt matter man. I bet you have never really known someone like me either but here is the rub.
You can be gay, go ahead. But if you want to be a christian you will have to give up sex. As long as you dont do the dirty, its fine cause sex between men is the only part god stands against. And before you spout more platitudes of "How dare you stand in the way of love!"
Paul died single, Jesus never had sex, so did many of the big people in the old church. Do you think your better than jesus that you are entitled to sex? Thinking that the only fulfilment in life is through sex with either men or women is a very sad existence. And I say that to dude bro's who also feel like sex n beer is the only reason for living.
Fuck sex, i just like having someone I can have a deep emotional bond with, sex is lust not love
Well, sex isn't lust if it's with your husband or wife
Correct. And anyone who cannot admit that there is more to a relationship even if you cant have sex just wants to have sex.
Yeah, you know what I mean though
Yeah. Sex is just an added bonus. But it's not what should drive the relationship and the marriage.
Honestly this sounds like one of those "But I really love her man! Dont tell me I cant marry a stripper!" situations where its pretty obvious to everyone except the guy who really "loves" this stripper.
Nobody can stop you from making your own choices but everyone can see the reason why you shouldnt.
"Better are the wounds of a friend than the kisses of an enemy."
I have slight trust issues, to me a friend is an enemy that hasn't killed you yet
Friends can hurt you far worse than any enemy
Intentionally or unintentionally
But i got a friend it jesus
I like the verse that says basically the same thing. Better to eat vegetables with someone you love then steak with someone you hate đ
âThere is no such thing as an unattractive temptation.â -Fr John Hardon (a celibate priest)
Look what I really dislike about you is that you demonize being gay. Itâs normals, including the sex part. Yes itâs a sin but one that can be forgiven. Is Jesus can forgive a thief he can do the same to someone who is a homosexual
There is no forgiveness without contrition.
Why should I feel bad about who I am, why should I feel bad for a choice that made my life better
You have to join God's assessment of it as sin and have contrition about it, willing to not do it anymore. That is called repentance. It appears that you think otherwise though.
I thought it wasnât a choice? You said it wasnât a choice
Itâs complicated
Everyone has sin. We all have temptations
It's only complicated when you are still trying to hold on to it on one side while agreeing with God on the other. You have to pick a side. Problem is, if you don't go God's way, it's the wrong way.
I can do both, I can be a gay Christian. As long as I love Jesus, follow in his example, follow the Ten Commandments, and go to church would that make me a Christian
Going to church makes you as much a Christian as going to a garage makes you a car
If God has allowed someone a temptation, He will also give that person the grace to overcome it. Itâs why God allows suffering too. For our betterment. We belong to him. You can suffer from same-sex attraction and be a Christian yes.
You can't on one side acknowledge it as a sin but yet on the other embrace it like you can still be it and be Christian. It's like saying you can be a Christian murderer, a Christian bank robber, etc.
Then what makes a Christian
First of all it is getting saved from the consequences of your sins by trusting that the Lord Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay for them, and repenting of them before God. That's preliminary before anything else.
So since you are not willing to repent of something that you do acknowledge as sin then that shows you are not at the first step yet
It doesnât make sense. Why would god make my temptation biological. Why would he make temptation that doesnât have any punishment in the mortal world and actually it improves the quality of life of someone. All major sins are immoral and to me homosexuality isnât immoral
Why would I acknowledge something that improved the world and cause no suffering
It doesnât make sense
Why me,
