"I'm a Christian but I'm not..." (BuzzFeed viral video)

[Faith Presses On]

A viral video by BuzzFeed saying things like, "but I'm not homophobic," "I'm accepting, and "I believe in science." It's accompanied by a Twitter trend, #I'maChristianbut, and there's also a related trend, #I'maChristianso.

I am a Christian, but I do not care what you think of me...

What in SamHell is a twitter?

My Grandmother Taught me that Nothing anyone ever says before the word “but” ever means anything.

Jesus says, “If you continue in my word, then you are really my disciples.” And He warns that on Judgment Day many will call out to Him,”Lord! Lord!” but He will say, “I never knew you,” thus pronouncing eternal punishment on those who did not follow His words. You cannot fool God by living as the ungodly do and convincing yourself that it’s acceptable to Him.

You have a smart Grandmother.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

This is a common leftist covert tactic of leading people astray by example. You project yourself as the example for them to follow. It is all phony, staged and coercive.

[MortMan]

That’s a gross of twits, of course...

[Bethaneidh]

Homophobia is rare and insignificant. We are not afraid of them, we find them repugnant.

[MortMan]

I understand what you mean, but I think your Grandmother was very smart!

(I’m smart too. The alecky kind!)

1 Corinthians 6:9 Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 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.

It is very sad to see these deceived young people take their stand with the forces of darkness. Jesus Christ came to save them from their destructions. Yet they reject his love and choose embrace sin. So sad...

Agreed. The leftists, like Satan, love to deceive because the gullible fall for it and they will continue to until they learn discernment. They have been VERY busy this year knowing they have little time left to kill, steal, and destroy.

I like to call myself a “science reader” It is the “science fans” who mess things up. They have this rigid notion of science, and often have no clue what science really says.

And He warns that on Judgment Day many will call out to Him,”Lord! Lord!” but He will say, “I never knew you,”

Actually, in context, scripture says:

Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ 23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’

The folks here were depending on their works to avoid judgement, not on the atoning sacrifice of Christ and the mercy of God.

[WKUHilltopper]

I’m a Christian and I care what God thinks of me...not people who are perishing from the lack of knowledge.

[Wilderness Conservative]

Im not a homophobe, butt....

[JudyinCanada]

I need to have a clear definition of “homophobic” before I can decide if I am one.

[Redbob]

"What in SamHell is a twitter?"

The meaningless sound a bird makes...

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

Exactly.

[Redbob]

“-phobia” means “an irrational fear.”

I can’t for the life of me think that the revulsion I feel toward queers is a “fear”...
