Why do people feel the need to praise homosexuals who out themselves like they're heroes?

Salvation lies within. Homosexuality is not something that can't be repented, but being real with you, time is getting short in general.

EDIT: I see the LBJ troll post. If you aren't sincere about this, you definitely shouldn't mock the Word.

Matthew 5:30
And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.


The only thing out of that statement that I disagree with is that it can be 'controlled.' Sure, you should stop watching porn if it controls lust, but that doesn't mean you won't have lustful thoughts. Yahawa (God) knows we fall short of his glory, so that's where grace comes into play. Plus, almost EVERYONE has committed adultery at one point or another. Why? Sex is what makes a marriage between two people. So if you have sex with someone who isn't a virgin, then you've committed adultery.

Yes you will always be tempted. But we are to flee that temptation, not indulge in it. Hebrews 2:18

As for adultery, as long as you are married it is not adultery. If you divorce a woman then you become adulterous.

Romans 6 "What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?" Continue reading this to find the answer.

So why believe in the same God that the slavers taught you about


I believe in God, just not the Christian God, err..Buddah, Islam etc...maybe I am going to hell. I am a shytty person, but If we are going to be logical God isn't free of fault either. I never asked to be born and neither did you. if we are "born into sin" then why make us in the first place. Why create people, hell why make earth. I'm not going to stomp on your religious views, but nah, somethings just aren't right.

It's a lot of contradictions, we pose to earn our spot in heaven but Jesus died for our sins.

I'm unsure of what you're getting at. A man can have multiple wives/concubines. The problem comes in when the woman, who has had sex before, has sex with you. She is actually married to the person who took her virginity, but obviously in these times, we don't follow that. If I'm married to a woman, and I have sex with a virgin, she is supposed to become my wife/concubine.

Again, we're talking THOUGHTS here. Yahawa made us the way he wanted to and he knows everything about us, even the way would and do think.

Man folks is taking this thread to a whole nother place. All I know is I try to be good, I ain't out here kicking puppies and beating up cats. I open doors and help old ladies with there groceries. I get drunk as shyt everyday. I'm an alcoholic, If work is available I work. If its not I'm broke as the next motherfukker. I love my family, but don't like them half the time. If you got a line I'll snort it with you, If I see your car stuck in mud, And I feel its safe to help, I'm a roll up my sleeves and try to help your situation. If you drop a 50 I'm a tell you that you did, because you earned that, do I want it yes. BUT I'm a regular fukking person. If that's not good enough to go to heaven I'm fukked. If that's bad enough to go to hell I'm fukked. so basically I'm fukked. Only thing I can do is try to do good. and watch out for my peoples. If I go to hell for that, then it is what is.

tbh i don't want to 'repent my homosexuality'. and it's not you brother, trust me. i've had many bad experiences with religious folks in the past, tho. unfortunately, i do mock most of y'all that do the equivalent of street preaching. it's a basic respect thing i suppose. i tell folks i'm not interested and they insist on praying or giving me the word. regardless of what is/isn't going to happen after we die, i find that really disrespectful to insist on trying to lay hands or pray for someone that wants no part of the ritual. many forget that pity can be a sin and annoying as hell.

 

[LionofJudah]

I feel sorry for you religious people, can't even live without the fear of God watching over you.

Don't feel sorry for me, I'm doing great.

And you should feel that way.

The validity of information is not dependent on the source. Truth is Truth no matter who the messenger is.

You are not stomping, you are asking valid questions. God created us because he wanted to share eternity with us. Why do we make cups or clothes or have children. Surely they did not ask to be created. We are not God, he creates us for a purpose. He loves us so much that he knew we would fall short and so he also planned to die for us. To lower himself to humanity and die so that we could be saved.

Either way the reality stands that we are here and we have a choice.

God is not subjective. He is either true or not and there can only be one truth. We cannot determine who God is individually based on our own beliefs.

I said @LBJ was a homosexual from the first post I ever quoted of his

We're supposed to tell you what the judgement is for your sin, otherwise we wouldn't be doing OUR jobs. I notice you said you were into Buddhism, and not following the Bible. Have you ever asked yourself why you accept Buddha, and not following the Laws, Statues, and Commandments given to Moses in the Bible? These so-called religions allow you to sin without fear of any consequence, so that's why you gravitate towards them. I've never heard of pity being a sin, but if you know the verse, please list it. What nationality is your father if I may ask because not everyone has a chance to be saved anyway?

"If you look upon a woman with lust in your heart, you have committed adultery."

The way we think does not justify or thoughts. If so we wouldn't need him. We suffer these temptations so that we may be brought closer to him so that he can teach us while strengthening our faith. Your faith will not grow if you do not challenge your sinful desires. This is how he shows you his power so that when you trust in him he shall give you the strength to conquer what you cannot do alone.

I don't disagree with that, but I think you think I'm justifying it when i'm not. My point is we are human, and we ALL are going to sin.

This is from Yahawashi (Jesus) himself

Matthew 19:17
And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
