When Paul wrote of those who would not enter the Kingdom he immediately followed it up sayng and such were some of you, meaning that some of those he’d written to had repented and their new identity in Christ was not in accordance to the things they now were ashamed of.
But if someone still defines themselves by something on that list, confining it to that list just for argument’s sake, and they even celebrate it can they be in the “such were you” category and have repented?
Or are the in the “such ARE you” category still, and with that undeniably still unrepentant ... only now high handedly so?
Clearly the latter.
To be blunt, The Lord calls us to holiness ... not to happiness.
A person whose identity as they actively define it is “homosexual” or “transsexual” cannot be a Christian. The door is too narrow to carry such baggage through.
Repentance is clearly possible; but, the lines to the old hymn are NOT ...
“Just as I am,
I’m changing not,
How dare you say my soul’s got spots!
I feel I’m okay,
And that’s good enough,
Oh a Lamb of God I come,
Just as I am.”
... anyone familiar with the real song knows how it really goes....
