Hey Yo.
I am your “enemy for the sake of the gospel.”
But not your enemy as a human.
NO, sinners are not excused. But the way they are not excused is to rattle their cages until they see the light of grace and accept it.
However you have sold the gospel way short and no amount of clever, selective, meaning-inverting bible spouting on your part will convince me or the Holy Spirit (on which I firmly lean) otherwise. We as individuals obey our Heavenly Father now by participating in the agape love offensive dictated by Him through His son Jesus Christ. Only if that fails are we authorized to look to other measures to deal with the evils.
It is not rocket science, and not “amateurishness,” how to save a homosexual sinner. It is through the positive blessing of “sanctify God with your body.” It sounds wimpy to the worldly Christian. But when God’s promise to grant help to carry out His positive directions is actually believed... then it becomes powerful.
I frankly have to wonder personally if YOU are shying from sanctifying God with YOUR own body in some way. Quite often, hypocrisy is behind such blasphemy of gospel promises. The gospel is a gospel of yes. Not a gospel of no. If you are shying in this manner you will believe the law is the way to deal with such issues. However the good news of the gospel is that yes hypocrites too will be forgiven!

"However the good news of the gospel is that yes hypocrites too will be forgiven!"
And WHERE does the Bible say that HOMOSEXUALS are forgiven?
It doesn't !
Have homosexuals not spoken
"against the Holy Ghost"?
" ... it shall NOT be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come ... "
Let me
REPEAT my earlier comment:
For whosoever shall commit ANY of these abominations,even the SOULS that commit themSHALL BE CUT OFF from among their people.
Have you not read
Judges 8 ?
Have you not read
Judges 18 ?
Have you not read
2 Kings 10 ?
Have you not read
Jeremiah 21 ?
All things written in the Bible must come to pass,
and we WILL get to
the day worse than has ever been.
And this too shall pass...
They hate him that rebuketh in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.
Forasmuch therefore as your treading is upon the poor,
and ye take from him burdens of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them;
ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink wine of them.
For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right.
Can you remember reading about "a thorn in their side"?
"But if ye will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you; then it shall come to pass, that those which ye let remain of them shall be pricks in your eyes,
and thorns in your sides,
and shall vex you in the land wherein ye dwell.
Moreover it shall come to pass, that I shall do unto you, as I thought to do unto them."
Who was Jesus
before He was Jesus? Read
john 1:1-16.
Who was
Melchizedek ? Read
Hebrews 7.
How did Jesus, through His Holy Spirit, handle Ananias and Sapphira; did He forgive and forget? Read
Acts 5.
Did Jesus allow the woman taken in adultery to be stoned, or did he stop it? Read
John 8.
Did Jesus "turn the other cheek" to the den of thieves in His Father's Temple? Read
Matthew 21,
Mark 11, and
John 2.
When Jesus returns,
the time of "turning the other cheek" will be over. Take a look at just how long "the house of Israel" shall be burying the dead that Jesus, the LORD, the Holy One, will have killed. Read
Ezekiel 39.
Are you beginning to understand?
