Well most ministers would disagree with you..because there are no mainstream Christian ministers who engage in broadcasting the sort of sickening vile descriptions of sexual depravity we have seen posted on these board.

Can you please provide a link. :)

Ok, but please don't overgeneralize. Ministers deal in the truth. There are those who are more interested in keeping the pews full and the donations flowing, but there are many who tell the truth regardless. I don't know of any study that has been done to tell which group has the greater numbers, and I don't know of any way to make such a study unbiased.

Jesus NEVER engaged in graphic descriptions of sexual immorality...and in fact never even spoke of homosexuality..because it was unnecessary.

Jesus NEVER had to. He did discuss those who sacrificed their children to foreign gods by burning them to death. That's not something we have to deal with in this day and age. We have to deal with people who engage in fisting, and who try to teach school children how to do the same. If you're sitting around thinking that queer love is just like straight love, you might need some graphic descriptions to help you make the distinction.

Jesus did know how to call a spade a spade. See Matthew 23.

Shalom.

My point exactly.

You actually think homosexuality is some modern activity that Jesus didn't have to talk about back in his day?

The fact is homosexuality is acknowledged in the OLD Testament..long before Jesus. The Bible speaks of drag queens and cross dressers in the Old Testament.
Jesus didn't mention incest and bestiality either.

The idea that people now need graphic descriptions of things that have gone on for 1,000s of years is silly.

Jesus didn't talk about things that were simply unspeakable and anybody who had any sense knew it.

Those who broadcast this sort of vulgar garbage on these boards are clearly not doing so in the name of holiness...but out of their desire to throw mud at those they have personal hatred for.

Jesus did know how to call a spade a spade. See Matthew 23.

You read Matthew 23. And then show me where Jesus described filthy vile acts of sexual perversion in any of His sermons.
You can't. Because He didn't.
