Jesus never said anything about Lesbians! Q.E.D.
Paul sure did. Romans 1: 26-27.
As you well know, homosexuality is not condemned by either the church or the Bible, it is the homosexual acts that are condemned and sinful.
Homosexuality is no different than the urge of every man to engage in sex with as many women as possible. It is an urge that is to be controlled through prayer and SELF RESTRAINT. My point, although somewhat facetious, is valid. At what point is an active and unrepentant sinner unworthy of a high office a denomination? They should certainly NOT be held up as paragons of virtue and should not be given high office in an organization that is supposed to be about following the dictates of the Bible. p>
