America Only Loc: From the right hand of God

You need to pick up a Bible and read it before you go writing a check with your mouth that your BRAIN cannot cash.

You of all people, one of the few that I saw as a real Christian ..... judging? Really? Perhaps I can refer you to Matthew 7:1 and the meaning of those words. Μὴ κρίνετε is t***slated a judge. Should you judge without knowledge, charity, or necessity.

I see your confusion, but I encourage you to judge charitably, make proper allowances for the frailties of your fellow human; be more ready to pity and pardon their faults. If you do show the love required, then both God and man will deal with you in the same manner. But, should you ignore love and kindness; force away mercy, then how will you then be judged for your own frailties? If you always put the worst construction on every thing that it will bear, and are not touched with the feeling of your brother’s infirmities, and show no mercy in the opinions you form of his character and actions, no mercy will be shown to you from any quarter; God will treat you as you deserve, in the just judgment he shall pass upon your actions, and the world will be sure to retaliate the injury. This was the lesson of Jesus. Leave the judging of another's soul and their sins to God. Distance yourself from sin and keep yourself holy. It is yourself that you can manage, not the actions, thoughts, or even the needs of others.

As I said to Paul, I can not support his life style. But, I will not pick up a stone against him. And I pray that you would not be able to do so either.

Just what kind of a wake up call to Christian did Paul post by his insistence that Christians validate the same sex relationships of homosexuals as being good and moral and that their activities are not sinful? Yes, Jesus hung out with sinners, but not to validate and glorify their sins, but to help them to sin no more, and there is a difference. homosexual acts are sins, but so are heterosexual acts outside of marriage, and God will judge them accordingly. Because of activists the message that homosexual sex is good and proper and often better than heterosexual sex, because (according to the "progressives") it cannot overpopulate the world has been heard around the world, but that doesn't mean that is the message from God, just that by use of moral relativism man can be indoctrinated into taking the easy way out and saying what ever you want to do must be right because you want it.
As far as anger and hatred for any sinner, that is not how I interpret God's love. Years of working with children who are the victims of sexual abuse has taught me that the hatred of the predators often becomes hatred of the entire group the predator represents, so before you come down too hard on some men for their hatred of homosexual acts realize that you probably do not know what may be behind the hatred which could be because they were victims, had family or friends who were, or had a father or mother divorce the other parent so they could do same sex activity. I really dislike the hatred from both sides, but until you know "the rest of the story" perhaps instead you should reach out to those people the way you reach out to homosexuals.

Thank you for the observation. I am sure that you are sincere in your beliefs.

Boo_Boo Loc: Jellystone

I do not see this the same way as you. I do not see it as promoting homosexuality, I see it as a belief system that is gathering support. I see it as a "in your face" fall back and look at how you trained your sons and daughter and they in turn is training theirs. If the message of Paul is okay with you, then you have done a fine job in raising your children. If you find it offensive, then change what and how you are teaching in the home. It is simple, society reflects the morals of home life. And until teachings in the home is changed, the public approval will continue.

Anyone who agrees with a f*g is automatically a good person to them,they spend their lives trying to justify their perverted lifestyle.no matter what people tell you,they think you are a pervert and always will,you will never change that.Live with other f*gs so you can all pretend you are normal even though deep down you know it's a lie.

You need to do a little more Bible study AO. There are absolutely no comments attributed to Jesus anywhere in the Bible concerning homosexuality.

St. Paul, on the other hand, who was very much a lawyer and seems much more centered in Judaic law, did have a lot of unpleasant things to say about homosexuality, among other things in his letters to the Romans and Corinthians.

In that case, I wish you a very happy Hanukkah!

I can not argue with your logic. But, I see the logic of Jesus when he said not to judge to leave it to God. Not my job to judge, it is however commanded of me to treat all people well. Even Jesus taught his followers to love their neighbor and I do not recall him putting a caveat onto that teaching such as unless the neighbor is not perfect and live up to your standards.

Tell me.... do you think that God is going to listen to your recommendations when He judges others? If so, then you are much more important than I. In the end, I think I will be too busy accounting for my own short comings and will not have the time to explore yours with God.

But, this is only my opinion.

Boo_Boo Loc: Jellystone

Thank you very much. And I wish you a very merry Christmas!

Boo_Boo Loc: Jellystone

Paul, aka Saul....his teachings were his own. I can see that you too have studied. Those who follow the Pauline doctrine are not Christians as referred to the Nazarene, but rather the Christians that inhabited the coastline of Greece and Italy. Which was pagan and predated Jesus for over 400 years. I did a paper on him, interesting teachings and an interesting individual full of conflict and a self appointed apostle to the gentile..

Hemiman Loc: Communist California

I never said anything about Jesus,one way or the other.
You feel all puffed up because you think you have taken the high road,all you are doing is helping to destroy our society by defending the homo's perverted lifestyle and your religious beliefs are going to be destroyed as well.A man or woman having sex with the same sex is wrong and there is no way to justify this perverse act.

Boo_Boo Loc: Jellystone

No... this has nothing to do with p***e or the high road. This is more about treating each person as a human. And you apparently stopped reading..... one can be civil and disagree. Paul and I established that fact from the start. I did not say that I support his life style.

Again, thank you for your comment and feedback, and as far as I am concerned, I will not judge Paul and I will not speak out against him.

Hemiman Loc: Communist California

That's what's wrong with this country people like you won't speak out,little comfort as the country slips into the devils playground.

Boo_Boo Loc: Jellystone

I prepared a long response, but have decided not to post it.... I think it best to say politely that I do not agree with you; but I respect your right to voice your assumptions.
