Jesus Christ and Homosexuality.

Ro 10:9
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

Comment:
Salvation comes at no cost to the believer, only gain.

Peace with God

Dys,

Ps 98:4
Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.

Hallelujah.

2Ti 1:9
Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,

You were being cynical weren't you Edgar?

That reminded me of a book Forrest J. Ackerman (Mr. Sci-Fi) had on his shelf at the old Ackermansion, "The Sex Organs and How To Play Them."

Of course, the pages were blank when one opened the book. It didn't have one of those secret compartment cut into the pages because a burglar would most certainly look in that book first.

This reply is not directed at Edgar or anyone else in this post.

I have included this scripture for some food for thought. If Jesus was the end of the law. Then we now live in lawlessness? So our prayers are an abomination? If we do not show law and justice for others why should God show grace for us in our prayers?

Proverbs 28:9
He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination.

Comment:
This is why one of the manifestations of the spirit is "speaking in tongues".

Speaking is tongues is, perfect prayer. It is an unknown tongue to the speaker. It speaks what we cannot know by our own understating. It utters secret groanings of the spirit and makes intercession for the saints.

The whole "worship of God" field is an area that remains unknown to most educated spiritualists.

I have been privately speaking in tongues for over 20 years.

Mr 16:17
And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

1Co 14:18
I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:

That reminds me of a short little book I read once, "Sex After 60" the pages were blank too...

Loss of sunday morning, loss of 10%+ of income, and most importanly loss of doing it Freaky Style!

RR, you fail to remember that you've been bemoaning that your pages are blank lately. Or are you again out there playing the field?

10% of income (tithe) is supposed to be returned from God 100 fold isn't it?

Holy days are a matter of choice and God is the greatest lover...

God understands human emotion. I believe God is concerned mostly about our health and happiness.

3Jo 1:2
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

Comment: This in one of the promises of God. There are over 250 promises of God in the Bible.

I know you were just being silly but I thought I would add this bit of info.

I appreciate the lighthearted humor people.

I'm only in the first inning...

Oh, I see, you've been tithing someone new.

(Let me know when you get to first base).

I am still seeing the same person I have been dating for a while, we have just put off the relationship for a few months. I am not sure how it will turn out. I am not in a hurry to tithe anything.

Mr. O"Donnell- You might have been right if it was MY list. It was not My list.

If you are so homophobic that you cannot abide a list like the one referenced above without making snide remarks( unproven of course) about the quality of people on the list, then I feel sorry for you.

It is evident that you are trolling, Bernie, because your lists of famous homosexuals that "contributed" to society contain a lot of people that did not contribute (serial killers and criminals) and aren't famous. Not to mention the fact that you consistently equate homosexuality with paedophilia and bestiality, both of which many people are opposed to, because both impinge on the freedoms of others...

Paedophilia impinges on a child's freedom to have a childhood.
Bestiality impinges on an animal's freedom to not have sex against its will.

Right, Pedophelia and Beastiality which are just as likely to occur in the heterosexual community do not involve two intelligent consenting human adults, but rather a naive child or compleley clueless animal. That's the difference. The laws regarding 18 years or younger as statutory rape will not change because homosexuals are accepted as having sex by mutual consent as adults with emotional and intellectual decision only to be made by human beings. Nor will the laws against bestiality or even bigamy (something practiced by heterosexuals as there is actual marriage involved) change. The rest of BernieR's trolling is a slippery slope only he, among some other pea-headed politicians, are sliding down themselves.

*****************************************************

Wrong --

The laws against pedohilia and bestiality have been enacted in a country which has allowed quite a few horrible laws against the rights of man-

Slavery was allowed in the Nineteenth Century

Women only gained the right to vote less than a hundred years ago.

There are hundreds of laws on the books in this country which, as is held by many on these threads, is still guided by a fundamentalist bias.

There is no rational reason why pedophilia should not be allowed.

I am afraid that both O"Donnell and Light Wizard do not know that marriage between 12 and 13 year olds was allowed as recently as 600 years ago in Europe.

Light WIzard and ODonnell do not know that one of our leading playwrights, Albee, has made a poignant plea for the rights of people to love their animals in the seminal play---Who is Sylvia?--

I wonder if they would say that all of the laws on the books restricting the freedom of people to love who and what they pleased are FAIR?

They would NOT!!!

"The Goat or Who Is Sylvia" is a satirical comedy involved the subjects of homosexuality and alcholism among other subjects. It's Albee's funniest play and BernardR has obviously not seen it or won't see it.

There are also lists on the internet of famous gays who had great contributions to society, including a code-cracking master who was one of the single individuals who turned the tide of the Second World War against the enemy.

BernardR should come out of the barnyard and see what is going on in the world today instead of dwelling on the long ago. Or are you unable to drag yourself away from your goat?

Is it just me or has BernardR practically labelled every single homosexual in this topic a homophobe?

Pot calling kettle black. :wink:
