I have dealt with such issues as the ones you profess many times before in these posts, and refutation of each of them can be seen in many of the links in the Links section of my blog as well. <BR/><BR/>I have decided not to post your comment because many such comments have been posted in the past, and I have decided not to use my blog as a forum for the preaching the false gospel of legalism and exclusion clothed with the mantle of the Bible and even with Jesus, the Prince of Peace Who espoused the only Gospel to be found in Christianity: the Gospel of grace, or unmerited favor to those whom He called out from the foundation of the world (eg. Ephesians 1:4) to be His disciples. <BR/><BR/>The Bible is not Jesus! The translations you trust are demonstrably faulty, and homosexuality as it is currently understood was never discussed in the Bible; context is everything when interpreting Scripture; if homosexuality were that important an issue, don't you think that it would have been mentioned in the Ten Commandments, or mentioned by at least one of the prophets, or condemned by Jesus? <BR/><BR/>However, bearing false witness is in the Ten Commandments, and that is what those who condemn others do. Also, I never want to hear the "condemn the sin and love the sinner" again! I've had a belly full of that lie! <BR/><BR/>Jesus never condemned anyone, except the Pharisees of His day, those who felt they had a corner on their knowledge of God and sought to impose yokes of bondage onto others in God's name. <BR/><BR/>Now, we have our modern day Pharisees, and you seem to be one of them, at least until further notice. <BR/><BR/>Please read some of the posts on my blog and some of the links in the Links section, and they should address the issue you raise, and if your are intellectually and spiritually honest you will do so.
