[Yosemitest]

They probably can NOT tolerate MANY Bible verses.
Their hearts BURN with RAGE when the truth hits their brain !

Lets start with Romans 1:16-32.

For I am NOT ASHAMED of the gospel of Christ:
for it is the power of God unto salvation
to every one that believeth;
to the Jew first,
and also to the Greek.
For THEREIN IS the righteousness of God
revealed FROM faith
TO faith:
as it is written,
The just shall live by faith.

You might want to take a look at Habakkuk 2:1-9, and especially verse 4.
Don't miss the importance of this because the rest of this information FROM GOD, is built on the understanding of this part in Romans 1:16-17.
Now, on to the next great information.

For the WRATH of God is revealed FROM heaven
AGAINST ALL UNGODLINESS AND UNRIGHTEOUSNESS OF MEN,
who HOLD THE TRUTH IN UNRIGHTEOUSNESS;
Because THAT WHICH MAY BE KNOWN of God
IS MANIFEST IN THEM;
for God HATH SHEWED IT UNTO THEM.

That last part is very important.
How many times must God warn them?
You might want to take a read of Luke 8:1-21 to understand why some people just will NOT listen and OBEY.
But on to the next part.

For THE INVISIBLE THINGS of him
from the creation of the world
ARE CLEARLY SEEN,
being understood BY the things THAT ARE MADE,
even his eternal power and Godhead;
so that THEY ARE WITHOUT EXCUSE:
Because that,
WHEN THEY KNEW GOD,
THEY glorified him NOT AS GOD,
NEITHER were thankful;
but BECAME VAIN IN THEIR IMAGINATIONS,
and THEIR FOOLISH HEART was DARKENED .

There is so much to cover hear, but the order which God has stated it in the Bible must not be ignored.
Think of microscopic when you read " the invisible things", but that's not the ONLY interpretation to be considered.
But it should help you to grasp the meaning"are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made".
"Became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened" is a very good insight on HOW this ABOMINATION starts.
But don't forget the verses before that, because they have been pointing out HOW the "homosexuals" got to this point in their destruction.
Now we start a more rapid destruction of their mind and heart with the next verses.

PROFESSING THEMSELVES TO BE wise,
THEY BECAME FOOLS ,
And CHANGED THE GLORY OF THE UNCORRUPTIBLE GOD
INTO AN IMAGE
MADE LIKE TO CORRUPTIBLE MAN,
and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
Wherefore God ALSO GAVE THEM UP TO UNCLEANNESS THROUGH THE LUSTS OF THEIR OWN HEARTS,
TO DISHONOUR THEIR OWN BODIES between themselves:
Who CHANGED THE TRUTH OF GOD INTO A LIE,
and WORSHIPPED
and SERVED the creature MORE THAN THE CREATOR ,
who is blessed for ever.
Amen.

Now it's becoming clear that there are MANY steps down the path to destruction, that these individuals have taken.
Some more insight can be found in Genesis 19 about just how evil and destructive homosexuals really are.
So, we continue with verses 26 and 27 of Romans 1.

FOR THIS CAUSE
GOD GAVE THEM UP UNTO VILE AFFECTION:
for even THEIR WOMEN DID CHANGE the NATURAL USE
into that WHICH IS AGAINST NATURE:
And likewise ALSO THE MEN,
LEAVING THE NATURAL USE OF THE WOMEN,
BURNED IN THEIR LUST one toward another;
men with men WORKING THAT WHICH IS UNSEEMLY,
and RECEIVING IN THEMSELVES THAT RECOMPENCE OF THEIR ERROR
which was meet.

Now you can see that God "gave them up", or in other words, He quit trying to convince them, that His WAYS were life-giving,
and allowed them to go their own way.
Their error would be a very strong lesson to all who will see, that it does lead to death.
Read again about meat and milk as far as spiritual knowledge goes.
Now God has laid this information out for us in a certain order for a reason, and that reason is the choice between Life or Death.
Lets finish this.

And even as THEY DID NOT LIKE TO RETAIN GOD IN THEIR KNOWLEDGE ,
GOD GAVE THEM OVER TO A REPROBATE MIND,
TO DO THOSE THINGSs which are NOT convenient;
BEING FILLED with ALL unrighteousness,
fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness;
FULL of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity;
whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God,
despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things,
disobedient to parents,
Without understanding, covenantbreakers,
without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
Who KNOWING THE JUDGMENT OF GOD,
that THEY WICH COMMIT SUCH THINGS
ARE WORTHY OF DEATH,
NOT ONLY DO THE SAME,
BUT HAVE PLEASURE
IN THEM THAT DO THEM .

Homosexual perversion is NOT a NATURAL punitive response to something else.
It's a GOD GIVEN PUNISHMENT

(a MARK in their head {or mind}, in their hand {or actions}, and in their heart {or what they love} ),

and it IS a Satanic DELUSION for the homosexual to THINK that God had nothing to do with it.

Have you not read the Book of Job ?
It will help you to understand
that Satan
has to have PERMISSION from our Heavenly Father
to do damage.

So in closing, we've covered THE CAUSE that God gave them over to a REPROBATE MIND.

Homosexuals aren't "born that way".
They had to "EARN their REPROBATE MIND" by refusing God ~ not once, ~ not twice, ~ but THREE times!

You need to not only read, BUT STUDY this link
I especially agree with its last paragraph.

" The Church NEVER can and NEVER will give satisfaction—
and the homosexualist knows it,
for he knows the words against him are INERADICABLE
—to the declared and impenitent homosexual,
the person who, through an act of the vermiculate will,
has identified his person with a sin,
whether HE DEMANDS ACCEPTANCE OF HIS SIN
through "love,"
or VINDICATION
THROUGH IDENTIFICATION OF HIS PERCEIVED ENEMIES AS BIGOTS.
Whether HE PRESENTS HIMSELF as an object of love or indignation,
what HE DEMANDS in either case IS ACCEPTANCE
not of the person,
but OF THE SIN-bound and SIN-DEFINED person.
HE DEMANDS the declaration of SPIRITUAL AUTHORITY that
THERE IS NOTHING OBJECTIVELY DISORDERED about this BINDING OF MAN TO SIN,
and ASSURANCE that THIS MONSTROUS AMALGAM can indeed ENTER the kingdom of heaven.
This can NEVER HAPPEN among Christians UNTIL THEY ABANDON Christianity,
WHICH IS AT WAR WITH EVERY SIN,
and whose indelible constitution
places ALL PERVERSIONS of the perfect man
AT THE MUZZLE of its canons. "

There will be NO HOMOSEXUALS ( NOT ONE ) in the afterlife.
They WILL BE ASHES UNDER the soles of your feet ! ! !

“Homosexuals aren’t ‘born that way’.
They had to ‘EARN their REPROBATE MIND’ by refusing God ~ not once, ~ not twice, ~ but THREE times!”

Powerful message and great post. However, I do want to draw your attention to the fact that homosexuality is distinguished in Romans 1 from reprobation. This demonstrates that homosexual lust and activity is NOT the ultimate perversion called a “reprobate mind” in the KJV.

Some theologians debate whether anyone can ever recover from reprobation. My opinion is that it can and has happened, but is exceedingly rare.

One thing is clear though. Societies down through history that came to accept homosexuality as normative were ultimately destroyed because of it. And America is now at this stage. In fact, most of the world, for the first time in history, is at this stage or nearly to it. So the world is about to face the judgment Christ said matched the perversions that occurred in the days of Noah and of Sodom.

This perversion is manifest when there is an attempt to enter into sexual relations with angels. (This happened in the days of Noah and of Sodom, and represents the extreme nature of the homosexual or otherwise perverted sexuality of the people during those times.)
