A viral video by BuzzFeed saying things like, "but I'm not homophobic," "I'm accepting, and "I believe in science." It's accompanied by a Twitter trend, #I'maChristianbut, and there's also a related trend, #I'maChristianso.
#ImaChristianbut == #ImnotreallyaChristian
Not exactly on topic but I just heard shep of fox compare Christian law to Sharia law in that we do not want sharia here, but we are hypocrites because we (try) to obey Christian law....in reference to the Kim Davis case.
Of course we know which side he would be on with his sexual preference. Another example of fair and balanced.
I’m a Christian, so I’m not cruel enough to encourage a practice that spreads as much disease as male-male sex acts do. The loving response is to help people find God’s word, because that is far better guidance on our lives than following shallow whims.
I’m a Christian, so I believe in science. Note: That does not include believing flawed science. The fact that the planet has warmed as we emerged from the Little Ice Age is not proof of a climate warming emergency.
I’m a Christian, so I follow Jesus and read the Bible instead of following Obama and reading Marx/Engels/Mao.
I know what you mean, I love science and see it as another way of proving that God is real.
"Homophobic" is a deliberate misnomer. The correct term is "disgusted."
It has nothing to do with fear, it has to do with disgust, as one would have directed at a sow eating her own piglet.
Homosexuality is just as unnatural as is that.
As for the Bible, Apparently God believes it's perfectly acceptable to burn entire cities to death because they tolerate homosexuals.
I don't know how you can spin that into something in favor of tolerating homosexuals.
In other places, it says they should be killed. Again, don't know how you spin that into an endorsement of queerness.
“Science” has become one of those code words, way too frequently
“but I’m not homophobic,” “I’m accepting, and “I believe in science.” It’s accompanied by a Twitter trend, #I’maChristianbut, and there’s also a related trend, #I’maChristianso. “
Uhmmmmmmmm NO - Romans 1:32
(Romans 1:16) 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.
(Romans 1:17) For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
(Romans 1:18) For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
(Romans 1:19) Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
(Romans 1:20) 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:
(Romans 1:21) 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.
(Romans 1:22) Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
(Romans 1:23) 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.
(Romans 1:24) Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
(Romans 1:25) 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.
(Romans 1:26) For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
(Romans 1:27) And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, 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.
(Romans 1:28) And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
(Romans 1:29) Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
(Romans 1:30) Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
(Romans 1:31) Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
(Romans 1:32) Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
Tell the stupid queer bastard to look at the end of the constitution where it says "Year of Our Lord". When it says the "Year of our Allah", he'll have a point. Till then, the stupid SOB needs to shut up.
Also here is Abraham Lincoln's opinion on the subject.
“I am a Christian, but...”
Sounds like a Christian butt all right.
“If you love Me, you will obey my commands”
Rejecting those commands = not a Christian
Thanks, I was watching to see Kim get out of jail and hear what Huckabee had to say, but I stayed to long and heard the gay boy. I wont make that mistake again.
Exactly!
Figuring out just what Jesus means in a particular context isn’t always easy and it’s very possible to get it wrong. This is talking about attitude, not some arbitrary attainment to correctness. You WANT to do what Jesus wants. Even if you sometimes get it wrong.
THERE IS NO “BUT” IN BEING A CHRISTIAN.
Wise woman
Under Sharia Law, Shemp would be thrown from the top of a high building.
I prefer ‘and’.
I am a Christian and, I reject homosexuality as detestable, as does God also. Lev 18:22
My use of the word ‘but’.
I’m a Trump supporter but, I prefer Cruz and, actually reject the idolatry of any man.
I’m a Christian, so...I know that Jesus came to set people free from the law of sin and death. He did not come to leave people in their sin. Anyone.
