You seem to be focus on one form of sin and ignoring OTHER forms of sins that are just as abominable to God. Love of money, pride, jealousy, self-rigtheousness etc.

No, I am not.

But this article is about Homosexuals, isn't it?

The same principles apply by simply replacing the word Homosexual with Adulterer, Liar, Murderer.

What makes the Homosexual condition stand out from other sins, is that it binds all the other sins onto that individual. For as Paul states in 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:

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.

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:

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.

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;

29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

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.

Yes it is -- but is is also about the church. As I said, we tend to frown upon one form of sin and ignore the others which a lot of us are guilty of either by commission or omission. Why is that ?
