Jesus never said anything about gay people. He was about forgiveness of sins. He forgave a woman who was about to be stoned.
I think a black preacher invoked His words at the black lives matter funeral for Michael brown. Probably paraphrased it very incorrectly.
“Let he amongst us who has never tried to beat up a 140 pound Indian convenience store owner cast the first stone.”
[Jesus never said anything about gay people.]
JESUS is the Word Who existed before time. Everything that is mentioned on the subject was authored by Him.
Believers are to line up their lives to the Word, not alter the Word to line up to their lives. If it’s in the Book, that’s the way it will be.
As I wrote to someone else in this thread:
I’m a born-again Christian who actually lived as a lesbian. When I was just a preschooler, I told my mother when I got married someday, I’d marry a woman. She was taken aback and told me I couldn’t do that, which I accepted.
But now “gay marriage” is a real tragedy to me, having actually seen much of that life from the inside, knowing both many women and men engaging in it, and it is a tragedy along with all of the many ways in which this age is rejecting the counsel of God.
And I’ll also add that I know God’s Word, and yes, homosexuality is a sin. The idea that Jesus never said anything about it is wrong. First, we have only his recorded words. And second, it was not a question that would even have been asked at that time. So no one would have asked him, “is gay marriage all right?”
And the Bible isn’t hateful or controlling. The left likes to say it is. It likes to say, similarly, that it was written to control women. It’s anti-sex.
But it was clear when it was written that a sexually libertine suicide was self-destructive and harmful to people. There was no modern medicine to cure diseases, and people knew there was peril in anything outside of faithful marriage between a man and woman.
Jesus also said ‘Go, and sin no more’.
Yes Jesus did say a lot about gay people. He is God, He wrote the Bible, and the Bible is very clear.
