“You TOTALLY misunderstand and misrepresent God. How can you tell someone to repent if you don’t tell what their sins are?! God does NOT want us to ignore sin.”

LOL. In Luke Jesus speaks of “some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others.”

Luke is filled with the examples of those “who pray thus with (themselves), ‘God I thank Thee that I am not like (them).’”

Of course Luke warns against such righeousness, and describes how Jesus praised the sinner who judged only himself and prayed for forgiveness: “for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”

Words to live by, or to try to, it would seem.

I’m so sorry that you don’t understand the difference between repentant and unrepentant.

What does all that have to have with the promotion of homosexual acts as normal and natural and forcing that acceptance on everyone?
