See what happens when you feed the trolls, Mike?

Yes, I did. He wrote me at my home e-mail asking me to retract the statement I made in Post #171. I wasn't too keen on that.
I have always disliked the word "homophobic" because it implies that those of us who disagree with the gay lifestyle have an irrational fear and hatred of gays. That isn't the case, of course, because the vast majority us of dislike the behavior, not the people themselves. Those of us (like me) who have spent a lot of time around them because of career choices often feel a great deal of pity for them because it's a horribly unhappy lifestyle. I'm not sure if that's the case with our Mr. Warden though -- he seems to really have an irrational fear of them.
I suggested that, instead of organizing silly protests and demanding this, that, and the other from the Texas Rangers, he volunteer at an AIDS center. I have organized help for one of the centers in Dallas before and it was very rewarding for both me and them. People who are afraid, lonely, and dying of a horrible disease are much more receptive to a message of grace and forgiveness.

"he seems to really have an irrational fear of them."

Irrational??? "To the contrary [he] spent over 0ne thousand dollars out of [his] pocket stopping the homosexuals from having their "gay day".

"People who are afraid, lonely, and dying of a horrible disease are much more receptive to a message of grace and forgiveness."

Sure he's 'that kind of Christian'? The kind who would care about that, I mean......

You are the one judging unrighteous judgement. You assume and have no facts, evidence or proof that I do not "feed the hungry, clothe the naked, visit the jailed." I have been in charge of neighborhood visitation and outreach evangelism at my church for 10 years. At my own expense I have feed many hundreds of people and given my own home for shelter to many. I spent 6 years visiting the elderly every week at Arlington Villa. I spent two years volunteering and ministering to the homeless at the Ruff House in Dallas. I fed and ministered to the homeless of Dallas for a year with several ministries and churches. I lead the evangelism team for Big Heart ministries one year in Downtown Dallas. I have spent hundreds maybe a thousand of hours counseling with brothers and sisters in Christ and ministering to their needs as well as the unsaved. I also have spent many hundreds of hours in business meetings for my church. I have never been paid a dime for my services. To the contrary I give of the money that God gives me through hard labor.

It is clearly you that has judged me unrighteous judgement.

I judge and discern according to the wisdom of the Holy Bible that you should have read more. Sodomy is an abomination to my God. That means he hates it. He hated it enough to destroy an entire city. He gives that to us as an example that he will judge and destroy us in this day if we as a people or nation are given to the sin of sodom. Notice in the verse just before the Bible says "God gave them up unto vile affections" & "God gave them over to a reprobate mind" Romans 1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator... this is exactly what is going on today. You have judged me to hate the homosexuals when actually I'm showing them the love of Jesus Christ, in the most gentlemen like manner possible under the circumstances, while remaining firm about the truth. We are commanded to preach the law ( Romans 3:20). Without the law I would have never of known that I was a sinner in need of the savior Jesus Christ. Only once someone recognizes their sin and that they are a sinner will they be able to be saved by the grace of God. So we preach against sin and about the loving grace of Jesus Christ. Hate is not in there anywhere.

I encourage you, if you are a born again Christian, to repent of your sins. Quit calling evil good and good evil. Isa 5:20. I question any person that spends more time watching sports, television, movies and music more than serving God and so does the God of the Bible just before gives them up unto vile affections & gives them over to a reprobate mind

In Christ Love,

Rick Warden
