No, I never claimed my "feeling was scriptural."
I don't follow your logic. I'm also not going to carry on with an argument with you about what scriptural passage you seem to require or not...because I doubt your motive is a peaceful one. Call it intuition, whatever.
There is room in belief that is substantiated for "revelation knowledge" and/or the truth of the Holy Spirit. It's a gift of faith. God confirms and affirms and denies and directs the faithful and if you are not familiar with that range of knowlege, you are not among the faithful...and are just looking to antagonise.
Please explain if I've mischaracterised you.
Nah, why would I bother? Our disagreement is so fundamental that we can never agree. Quite simply, I respect and admire those that rise above temptation. I'm not a homosexual, but at my core, I'm a violent man. I'm good at violence, some primitive part of me enjoys it, and to be frank, I'm constantly tempted to revert to old ways.
However, am I today, a violent person? No. I long ago tamed that beast, and while inside, I might be itching to just stop the crap out of someone, I don't. I rise above the temptation.
Likewise, if some guy with homosexual leanings fights the temptation and goes to prayer instead, more power to him. I'm sure in my heart that God loves this guy all the more for turning away from sin, and turning to him instead.
