Pro-LGBT Group Wants Southern Baptists to Remove Homosexuality, Transgenderism From 'Sin List'
Christian Post ^ | Jun 8, 2017 | Leonardo Blair

Posted on 04/26/2018 12:38:14 PM PDT by fwdude

Faith in America, a pro-LGBT organization which will be protesting at the annual gathering of the Southern Baptist Convention in Phoenix, Arizona, next week, recently announced that they will be lobbying for the nation's largest Protestant body to remove homosexuality and transgenderism from their "sin list."

"Ultimately, we at FIA believe LGBT people should be removed from the sin list. We know interpretations and new revelations come to light. We believe the Church will one day stop diminishing the lives of those who are LGBT and we strive to help this come to pass," the organization said in a release.

"We are optimistic people and see the glass 75% full! We appreciate and respect how the SBC has changed teachings and interpretations based on new, important information. We applaud how in 1995 the SBC issued a formal apology to People of Color for their role in the inhuman practices of slavery and segregation."

Remember when the sodomites were assuring us that we could believe and do what we wanted in our churches and religious associations as long as we didn't tell them what to do in our laws? Which lie no. is this?

It is not the Southern Baptist’s sin list, it is God’s sin list. We just follow His word as it was given to man.

And it’ll happen too - if the attitudes of freepers here are any example.

Do that and the Southern Baptists will disappear from the scene.

That’s their endgame. In 10 years time, they’ll make Adam and Eve into 2 faggots as a revision.

No kidding. I’ve seen a couple of fag-marriage lovers here and they claim to be conservatives. Go to the homo threads, and you’ll easily spot them.

God's moral nature is absolute and unchanging. God always hates the evil and loves the good. The Bible is of supreme importance because it tells us the difference between good and evil, providing a framework on which a completely unambiguous ethic must be built.

How long before the Bible is declared a banned book, but the koooran is glorified, deified, honored and protected by laws? (already is, in some loacations.)

I grew up in a Southern Baptist church, but I don’t recall ever seeing, or even hearing of, a “sin list”.

Sorry, Marys...you can’t “protest” my beliefs away.

Sin is what Yahweh says it is, not some Christian denomination that determines what is and what is not sin.

God calls it an abomination. Who are we to argue?

Take that one up with God, He doesn’t change, He gets to declare what is sin and what does not.

Be grateful you are living during days of God’s Grace lest you live now, not during days of Noah, of Sodom and Gomorrah or during the days of Moses and the golden Calf, who were all struck without getting yet another chance to turn away from their multiple hardened lives!

Today, sodomites get that opportunity but it doesn’t last forever and their sins are on them. We SBC members love and pray for them but will never deny God’s word as truth!

Praises to current SBC leaders for standing firm on the holy scriptures, when other pretend Christian denominations continue to fold in the eyes of man but are actually ashamed of God!

#6: "And it’ll happen too — if the attitudes of freepers here are any example."

I never thought I'd live to see the day when the SBC went soft. The SBC was once the firewall against degeneracy, now I'm not so sure. Many former SBC affiliates have gone "rainbow".

10 years?

They’ve already been attempting to insinuate a homoerotic relationship between King David and Jonathan and between Jesus and John “the disciple whom Jesus loved”.
