“[Biden] cannot distinguish between sex (the Male- and the Female of humanity) and sexual Orientation (a learned behavior based activity)”

Actually, I wanted to distinguish here between homosexual behavior and the homosexual orientation. Homosexual behavior is a conscious choice, and is condemned as sinful by the Bible. The homosexual orientation is a lameness of the soul (like depression, addiction to alcohol or food, etc.) that God can heal, and the Bible is silent on this matter. IOW, the Bible doesn’t call simple same-sex attraction a sin. However, whenever lust and/or sex become involved, then it’s sinful.

The reason homosexuals are attracted to others of the same sex is that they are split off from their primary gender identity. Male homosexuals never got enough “masculine” fertilizer, so to speak, growing up, and their masculinity never got a chance to develop. With lesbians, they never properly bonded with their mothers, so their essential femininity never developed either. Homosexuals suffer from terrible emotional deficits that the average person could never even imagine, and as a result they are seeking externally what should be present internally. Only God can heal such an awful deficit. So while it’s correct to condemn homosexual behavior as sinful, it’s important to distinguish between that and legitimate emotional needs that Christ died to heal.

Anyway, it’s clear that God is turning so many in America over to “reprobate” minds, and that our war is not against flesh and blood but against evil, dark spiritual forces. It’s also clear that Americans, like the Hebrews in the OT, are being given over to Baal worship. Sexual idolatry is what Baal worship is basically about, and it always ends in acceptance of homosexuality and the eventual destruction of societies that engage in it. So it’s just as important to speak out against pornography as it is to speak out against the acceptance of homosexuality, because one leads to the other.

Christians really need to pray hard that God will spare this land from a disaster. I hope it doesn’t take another 9/11 to do it. After 9/11, people were really running scared and turning to God in droves. Will God have to let us experience something similar to wake people up???

Concerning modern-day Baal worship, here’s an excellent article that discusses it:

http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=83960

Excerpt:

“What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun. (Ecclesiastes 1:9 NIV)

“Modern-day liberals – or “progressives” as they more discreetly prefer – labor under an awkward misconception; namely, that there is anything remotely “progressive” about the fundamental canons of their blind, secular-humanist faith. In fact, today’s liberalism is largely a sanitized retread of an antiquated mythology – one that significantly predates the only truly progressive movement: biblical Christianity.

“While visiting the Rivermont Evangelical Presbyterian Church in Lynchburg, Va., a few weeks back, I heard a troubling, albeit thought-provoking, sermon. Pastor John Mabray addressed the ancient Canaanite practice of Baal worship and, though he didn’t reveal it by name, connected the dots to its present-day progeny: liberalism. Baal, the half-bull, half-man god of fertility, was the focal point of pagan idolatry in Semitic Israel until God revealed His monotheistic nature to Judaism’s forebears.”

I suspect it will take such action -we seem determined to continue down that spiral ignoring -thus far at any rate- every act that ought call us back. Some have turned back to
seek God’s face the majority are heaping to themselves teachers with itching ears.So it seems- It may prove a wild ride. I compare sexual orientation to David hanging back and
being on his roof top watching another mans wife bath.I believe his actions became sin when he gave in to the porneu(?) When he returned to think about what he had seen-and then led himself to act on that lust.I fear this nation is bent on this same downward spiral.
