We don't need to accept their lifestyle -- but blasting them with stones or words will neither "fix" them or set a good example.

There were no "stones" in my post. That was your assumption. I merely called unrepentant homosexuals what they are--children of the devil, the walking dead. It does them no service, no kindness, to "agree to disagree." The New Testament is much more direct on the matter of sin. In our age, we practice a watered-down, seeker-friendly "Christianity" that doesn't bother to call sin what it is--sin! This little reprobate from Georgia would do well to listen to the "boos" that were directed her way. If there weren't so many effeminate Christians with false mercy holding out a hand to her, she just might have been convicted of her sin and repent.

I agree that homosexuality is a sin--but I can't support the "children of the devil" remark. The way I see it--I'm no better than a homosexual--I'm also a sinner. The difference being-when I sin I usually repent and ask for forgiveness.

Fixed that for you. I take it kinda personal when yankees come down south and try to tell us how to live.

A lot people like to use the “ cast the first stone” line. But they seem to leave off the ending.
“then go and sin no more”
And being that’s it’s a trinity. And we know what his Dad had to say about it.

Don’t be fooled by DUs responding to what you said.

Don't tell me, let me guess -- you're one of those "once saved, always saved" heretics?

It is no sin to have a homosexual orientation. Sin requires an act of deliberate will. Homosexual acts are objectively sinful -- just like being a hypocrite is -- but no worse than other sinful acts that people (even you) commit on a daily basis. We are all "children of the devil" by that standard. Unless you live in a constant state of perfection you, too, are one of the "walking dead".

You whitewashed tomb. Spend more time comtemplating the sins that you commit -- and the mercy shown to you by God and your fellow believers -- before you go condemning other people as "children of the devil".
