This is inevitable if liberals stay in control of shaping public policy long enough.

By the way, there is no sin “list” - there are sins, and the sins of the homosexual are no greater than the sins all of the rest of us commit and for which we need redemption, so this is a completely incorrect premise to state that “they” are an offense any more than any of the rest of us...but that doesn’t negate the fact that it is wrong. The context of his argument is completely twisted. Moreover, the Church is not where this originated and the Church has no authority to “remove” what is or is not sin.

Some “churches” are already cooperating with the homosexuals, but there can be no doubt. Homosexual acts are sin. The homosexualists have to twist scripture just like Satan twisted God’s commands to Eve, i.e. “Did God really say....”

Like you wrote, Christ’s Church has no option. They have no authority to remove homosexuality from the list of sins. Christ himself probably couldn’t do that, because the Son of God obeys God the Father and carries out the Father’s will.

1 Corinthians 6:9 “Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men.”

Note that homosexuals are no worse off than adulterers, and I daresay many heterosexual Christians were once adulterers. I use the past tense, because repentance brings forgiveness.

1 Corinthians 6:11 “And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.”

I disagree. God calls it an abomination and it ultimately is stealing from God. Homosexuals do not have children and steal from God the thing He created humans for, people to populate Heaven and spend eternity with Him.
