Robert Griffin III thinks the time is now for gay players to come out.
The Redskins star quarterback told GQ magazine that he feels the "window is now" for gay players.
"I think there are [gay players] right now, and if they're looking for a window to just come out, I mean, now is the window," said Griffin, who is recovering from offseason knee surgery. "My view on it is, yes, I am a Christian, but to each his own. You do what you want to do. If some Christians want to look at being gay as a sin, then thinking about other women, committing adultery—or any of those other sins that are in the Bible—those are sins, too. And God looks at all of us the same way."

More like, Masons have cabbaged onto biblical doctrines and claimed that they originated them. This is spiritual insanity. It shuts out the light of God. You can count on the Holy Bible, directly.
I mean, let me reverse the challenge. Have you even read through a single gospel, directly from the bible? No massive PDF file is needed. Just go to a place like http://www.biblegateway.com
>>claimed that they originated them
How do you know - you haven’t even made it to page two yet.
If “Morals and Dogma” originated anything - it’s a concise historical exposure of how human nature has manifested itself in various, repetitive, religious concoctions.
Forget “morals.” Forget “dogma.”
How about divine salvation through faith in the person Jesus Christ, untrammeled, the One that not even death could entrap?
Your sights are way too low! The promises of Christ are wonderful. I don’t preach “religion.” I preach a living relationship with a loving Christ.
I mean OK, Masons claim a complete revelation.
Can they whip Christ?
I don’t think so!
BUT, Christ was whipped (and crucified) for their sake. To bring them forgiveness from God and new life from God. Christ WAS God, come to visit this sad earth in the flesh.
>>Can they whip Christ?
That was within the purview of the state-established religionists perched upon the temple steps.
Yes, and what is your point here?
Because the Pharisees would not preach godliness but were selfish self-glorifying people, does not make our modern worshipers of Christ selfish self-glorifying people (except that they are now on the mend from having been so).
[our modern worshipers of Christ]
Our? LOL.
There you go “assuming dominion” again.
“Assuming dominion”?
I do not assume. I know. I’ve proved it supernaturally and it squares with the Holy Bible. Christ does have dominion. Christ gives authority to His bona fide worshipers. He just does. Rest on the love of Christ (loving Him, accepting His offering of you to His Father, and accepting His love, including the forgiveness He extends) and wham, there you are. You have authority!! Authority to be a citizen of heaven, loving as Christ did. You now have a thick skin to accusations and blasphemy, but you are very tender towards sinners. Note that I have never chewed you out or taunted you? There is a reason for that. It is Christ.
>>Because the Pharisees would not preach godliness
Au Contraire, they preached a godliness: a state-established one.
Just like the other plethora of religious fraudsters enumerated in...

If you are looking for completed perfection in earthly Christian churches, you will look in vain.
If you are looking for a perfecting Spirit and you hold back on the blasphemies, you will find that Spirit working in earthly Christian churches who give bona fide worship to Jesus. Bona fide means addressed to Him personally. There could be screwy doctrines in some of these congregations; that does not prevail in the situation if the worship is addressed personally to the living Christ. (It is a sin which will be cleaned up before arrival completed in eternity.)
Anyhow, are you just trying to shoot Christ down?
Oh, and I do agree that the state is one idol. It’s not the only idol. Just because you truly loathe one idol doesn’t excuse you from seeking God’s light to deal with other idols.
Of course you do.
"...who, being themselves but fallible and uninspired men, have assumed dominion over the faith of others, setting up their own opinions and modes of thinking as the only true and infallible, and as such endeavoring to impose them on others, hath established and maintained false religions over the greatest part of the world, and through all time;"
--Thomas Jefferson, 1786
>>You have authority!!
Authority to live in repentant grace, or authority to flaunt the abomination of nature and the demoralization of western civilization?
OK, I think I see your concern?
And you’ve voiced it in the past.
Let me tell you a thousand times over. I’m not EVER interested in “dominion over an earthly government” as we know such governments today. That is attempting to baptize unbelievers, while unbelieving, into Christ. It is impossible. I agree with you heart to heart that this is odious! It blocks the light of the Lord.
Now when Christ actually comes, He will establish a new government that will elbow old governments out of the way, but that is a different story.
I hope I am clear on what the dominion authority of Christ means as I accept it and preach it.
Of course authority to live in repentant grace. But we minister the KINDNESS of the Lord that LEADS TO REPENTANCE... not rocket science, read your Bible. That’s how God operates. That’s not how the world operates.
Oh, and I am also not starting any new denomination. I’m here among other things to preach to Christians in ANY denomination about how to worship the Lord better. It’s up to them to choose to accept or deny... I’m not cramming anything down anybody’s throat... it looks more and more like you’re whaling away at a straw man foe that does not even exist when you’re whaling away at me.
We actually agree on more than you think.
You also don’t need the Masonic faith to fight the idea of one denomination getting dominion over another! But the Masonic system is theological clutter at best, and glorifying of men and demons at worst.
>>>But we minister the KINDNESS of the Lord that LEADS TO REPENTANCE...
Well maybe that’s what you intend to minister — but that appears to be very different from what this Idol of the NFL is ministering when he invites his homosexual playmates to come on out and flaunt their unrepentant nature on the floor of the Colosseum.
And if he is doing that, he shouldn’t.
The strength of faith has waned in the USA. The modern capitulation to “gayness” is a symptom of it. I think we are in a big storm over nothing, friend, except that I disagree with the Masonic system as being not a pure gospel.
