We are told to do this only if they hold themselves out as Christians.
Snacks?
Like Four Fried Chickens.
Or dry white toast.
Had a discussion last night about this. Women are so wishy washy, and can’t make a stand and say “Homosexuality is wrong.” Have to hedge and say, “Welll... they can’t help it!” Nonsense. If they can’t help it, then why does any Christian try not to sin! Sin it up if it doesn’t matter! (But it does)
Agree. They can say what they want and scream at God but it comes down to a union between man and woman. I don’t think the word procreation is in their language.
In ten years, such articles will address the question of attending pedophile weddings.
So much for “love the Sinner, hate the Sin.”
No doubt
I think you miss the point.
Loving the sinner is fine. Hating the sin is the point.
So attending a queer wedding would be condoning, accepting and even Loving the sin.
Didn’t miss the point at all.
And no... Being a Witness for your beliefs in and amongst those who do not believe should be an Opportunity, shouldn’t it?
The scripture says, "an open rebuke is better than silent love."
Kinda hard to “rebuke” them if you never go to where they are.
I don’t care either way. I’m not gay nor am I a Christian.
Just curious how this stance shakes out logically...
I could not attend and watch them pledge to one another.
God called it an obimination.. And said “thou shalt not.”
To be at the wedding and rebuke... Not the place to do your rebuking.
To not go... Thats a strong no.
I would not attend a "Happy Divorce" party either.
Does not mean I do not know people who are divorced.
But a marriage ending is a tragedy and no reason for a party.
So you believe a Christian should go to a same sex "marriage" and tell them exactly why what they are doing is wrong and exhort them to repentance? Because to go and do anything else, even remain silent, would show an acceptance and approval of that which God has balled an abomination...
..*called* an abomination...
Nope, don’t care if it’s our child. You are condoning it, if you attend. Effectively endorsing sin. Now, I sin with the best (worst) of them, but I don’t endorse it.
The problem is that the road is wide and smooth on the way to hell.
ALSO:
2 John 1
8 Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.
9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
11 For he that biddeth him God speed is PARTAKER of his evil deeds.
Silence is consent
However
To everything under the sun,
There is a time
