| What the Bible says about Homosexuality |
|
| |
I'm quite worn out with seeing fellow Christians being called "hypocritical" for standing against gay marriage. We are not "hating"..we are hating the sin. You're absolutely right (you know who you are), God DOES command us to love one another.But he also commands us to hate sin.(Psalm 96:10:"O ye that love Jehovah, hate evil.") Here's what the Bible says about homosexuality: 18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
^ this was God speaking to Moses (a male). 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile passions: for their women changed the natural use into that which is against nature: 1:27 and likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another, men with men working unseemliness, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was due. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders. 1 Corinth. 6:9 |

Ok,
God didn't speak against black marrying whites.
There is a huge difference between a man marryign a man and a black man marrying a white woman.
Youre a grown girl. You can see that.
People born gay? I firmly disagree with that theory. Why would Almighty God clearly speak against homosexuality in His Word and then create someone to be a homo? God is without error, it is impossible for Him to sin. He is the creator of every living thing, of every child that is born. |

"But the thing is The Bible also says treat others as you would want to be treated so technically what the Bible seems to be saying is that every staright man and women who CAN get married and who are against gay marriage have to get there rights taken away."
I'm sorry but that arguement was totally invalid.Even if I was on your side I'd still think the same thing. Seriously, explain that to me. |

I understand what you were saying, but those were two different "redefinings" that you discussed. Blacks marrying whites had nothing to do with their idea of marriage, it was a racial matter.
And I DO know.God wouldn't do that. |

Yes. I get your idea, but when God says treat eachother as you would want to be treated He didn't mean it like that. What he MEANT was "Treat the gays with love and kindness, even if you don't agree with them on some issues." He did NOT mean " If you defend my word and say that gay marriage is wrong then you can't get married either."

Right. I understand where youre coming from. Honestly, I think it's pretty sad too. I I have people who I am very close to, in my own family, that are gay. And I don't agree with their lifestyle, but I love them like mad and care for them very much.
Thats just a problem with some people. but not eveyone is like that.
haha fun |

| Carly, dont start this again, look homosexuality is a sin GET OVER IT, why does it effect me? why does it effect you? how does it effect the Christian faith? the only one that should be answered is the 3rd one its against the bible like she said. Why should they have to get married if they are "in love" with each other, its not bad AT ALL marriage is the joining of two Christian people thats why they have a pastor for it, even if your not christian its still a Christian bonding and gays are not part of the bible. its an abomination so stop critisizing peoples blogs its pathetic so stop it and btw good blog i like it |

| oh and btw back to when you said treat others like they would treat you, are you saying we should release all the murderers out of jail just cause we would want them to treat us like that, are you saying we should allow any kind of sin? cause that is treating others like they would treat you. and if you even try to say that ive messed up, i have i will admit that every sin is the same, but i dont do anything on a day to day basis knowing its wrong so yeah |

ahh finally, an unbiased arguement. thank you kaci.
and the reason woman aren't used in that verse: In the Bible , when they used the term "man" they were referring to mankind.As in all human beings. Like the verse " man shall not live by bread alone but by every word of God."
Clearly they weren't talking about only men. It is also correct grammar to use male pronouns when addressing a person or party that could be either male or female. |

ok... personal opinion here, and idk someone else might have said it... cuz i didnt read ALL the comments on here but here it goes...
I think that yes, some do choose, but also, some are born that way. there are certain chemical imbalances and such that can make them that way and its not their fault...
and the whole black/white thing?? what's that got to do with any of this?? man/man to black/white... completely irrelevent point to try and prove!
and the bible says it is a sin to be homsexual, and yes, it also says to treat others as we want to be treated and to love everyone... so therefore, you dont have to agree with their lifestyle, you just have to accept them for the way they are and love them just the same...... but dont hate them just because of that... dont hate anyone... the bible says that hatred is as murder. but if youre going to not like somebody, then dont like them for a good and valid reason.!!!
so if we hate someone JUST because they are gay, what about all the other people looking at us, and our christian lifestyle??
what if that person is like, oh he hates this person just because of their lifestyle.... i dont wanna be like that. i dont want to hate people like that, and maybe they will question god about it... and then bye bye getting someone closer to God...
so im not even sure that made any sense, bc i was just writing,,,,,, but yeah... |

ok i dont always get into these kinds of "arguments" or watevr but this is something i hve a vry strong opinion about so here it goes.....
the whole homosexuality thing yes some ppl may hve hormonal inbalances but now there are medicines tht can fix tht. so i do definitely think tht homosexuality is a CHOICE. its a choice to "fall in love" w/ someone whether they be male or female. i think tht alot of homos are jst confused as to the difference b/w marital love and friendship love. there is a definite difference. or they,as many americans/peolple, go searching for tht "God void". it is most certainly a choice to be gay.
and homosexuality is most certainly a sin. i hve researched on this topic bc i wanted more information on it. there are quite a few verses tht tell of this as a sin. but jst bc they sin doesnt mean we dont love the person. love the sinner hate the sin right?? and we dont hve to jst "x" them out of our lives and act like they are not their.we should still love them bc tht is wat God calls us to do and they are still people nonetheless. we should keep "in contact" w/ them also to hopefully witness and hopefully get them to heaven. if we jst ttly ignored them wat good does tht do??
i agree w/ tht kaci dude...sure they can get married but not in the presence of our Lord and Saviour. they can do it in court but if they do it in front of God then i do agree tht it does no good anyways.
so yeah...i rlly hope i dont offend anyone bc i am by no means trying to do tht!
btw...great job "nine nine"!! |
