This indicates that it is possible for "fornicators, idolators" "the effeminate" and "liers with mankind" as well as other slaves of vice, to repent and receive the Lord's mercy, and be purified, sanctified, justified.

The key is "some," the few who were honest with themselves and knowingly did not reject redemption and reconciliation through His Son. Miss Cyrus does not appear to be in that select group, nor willing to admit she is deadly, Satanically wrong.

I will pray for Miley Cyrus. All of us sinners need prayers.

Go to it! We'll see if it works as well as for Alice B Toklas and Gertrude Stein. While you're at it, you might want to include the womyn Gloria Steinem and Chelsea Sayre, and any other transwomen you can think of. Or you could send them some evangelistic tracts or a cautionary letter regarding the end consequences of their ways.

Scolding me on this issue will probably not be very profitable in converting me to your views, I suspect--or your readers either.

I don't think your logic works out, taken in the whole Biblical view. If God alone saves, but gives one up, I don't think that individual then has much hope, going on.

Oh.

This only works ONE way; eh?

I will pray for those other people you mentioned, too.<> I don't know why you're bothered by this idea of praying for sinners. Compassion expressed as prayer is never "misplaced", since we try to be good to friend and enemy, the just and the unjust: this is a kind of caring which Jesus commends as being "perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect."

I'll add you to my prayer list.(I've gotta write these things down...)
