FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument

The Holy Bible condemns same-sex sexual relationships as evidenced by Romans 1:25-27.

And speaking how Jesus “welcomed” unrepentant sinners, Matthew 18:15-17 shows that Jesus taught that a congregation is ultimately supposed to give unrepentant sinners the boot. (Matthew 23 also shows Jesus “welcoming” the Pharisees.)

1 Corinthians 5 is an example of a congregation getting repremanded for not complying with Jesus’ teaching where sexual offenders are concerned.

Note that 1 Corithians 5:11 teaches Christians not to even eat with unrepentant sinners.

Given that San Fran’s largest evangelical megachurch has caved in to the pro-gay agenda, that’s a good indication that the Holy Spirit is not working through that church.

It’s sad to see yet tellingly prophetic. They are suppressing God’s truth and there one less place for the repentant-minded homosexual to go - these church elders along with this apostate pastor are huge trouble. I challenge them to show me where love is supposed to feel good all the time.

1 Cor 13:4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
