What is the line from the poem about vice? First we pity, then endure, then embrace? You are at the second step.
There is a big difference between recognizing that people who commit even vile sins are God’s children, and saying, “Okay, I guess what they’re doing isn’t worth getting worked up about.”
I mixed it up. It’s first endure, then pity, then embrace. You are at the second step, at least. Maybe the third.
Not all people will walk the narrow path. Do we punish them all legally so we make sure they NEVER see the love Christ offers. That will keep them off the path for sure!
Only a fool would embrace sin.
I am aware of gay couples in my community.
And honestly I don’t embrace their life but I do respect them as fellow humans.
What I do notice is some of them are very good hearted God loving individuals and others are just plain dumb assess without much depth and don’t have a clue but are here trying to function by only the grace of God.
And this would be true even if you removed the Gay label.
