My friend is the pastor of this church. Persons controlled by their hatred of God's word defaced a Church sign in front of the church this weekend. pictures below.
Other than the "small" fact the Jesus is God, He is omniscient and He is the Word, consider the strictly human, temporal aspects of your statement.
"The discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls (DSS) at Qumran in 1949 had significant effects in corroborating evidence for the Scriptures. The ancient texts, found hidden in pots in cliff-top caves by a monastic religious community, confirm the reliability of the Old Testament text. These texts, which were copied and studied by the Essenes, include one complete Old Testament book (Isaiah) and thousands of fragments, representing every Old Testament book except Esther. The manuscripts date from the third century B.C. to the first century A.D. "
Their gloat will consume them.
The dietary laws were given to the Hebrews, exclusively. Gentiles are not required to follow them. You know a little bit of the Bible, and are cherry-picking excerpts to back your false argument. Please continue to expose yourself as the progressive shill that you are.
Yes, they are trying to be menacing by pulling little tricks designed to look kindergarten-ish. It’s comparable to the “Obama song” from about 6 years go.

Rainbow much?
You sure this is the site for you?
Wow.
Yeah, you are one of those 'tolerant' types who wants to see religion embrace male-to-male anal sex.
Darks, we got a live one here.
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we are not contending against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the equipment of the gospel of peace; 16 above all taking the shield of faith, with which you can quench all the flaming darts of the evil one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 Pray at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints, 19 and also for me, that utterance may be given me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains; that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.
Haven't read Torah much, have you? How about the NT where Yeshua plainly states:
Mat 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
Mat 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
Mat 5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

Do you, for example, abstain from shellfish?
Why yes, as a matter of fact, I do. And pork too...
WOW. Really? Not.at.all... So because man decides gay marriage is holy matrimony, it therefore is? You've got to be kidding. Of course it is still fornication.
Thank you for my new FaceBook profile picture.
Well done.
“gay marriage by definition changes the inclusion in fornication”
The definitions of fornication and marriage come from the Bible. Leviticus 18 list 13 prohibited sexual relationships between humans which can never become marriage. They are various forms of incest plus homosexuality. Two other prohibitions are in this chapter: bestiality and uncleanness (sex during menstruation). Notice that the chapter concludes with an explanation that these rules from God are not just for Jews:
Leviticus 18:24-29
Do not defile yourselves with any of these things; for by all these the nations are defiled, which I am casting out before you. For the land is defiled; therefore I visit the punishment of its iniquity upon it, and the land vomits out its inhabitants. You shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations, either any of your own nation or any stranger who dwells among you (for all these abominations the men of the land have done, who were before you, and thus the land is defiled), lest the land vomit you out also when you defile it, as it vomited out the nations that were before you. For whoever commits any of these abominations, the persons who commit them shall be cut off from among their people.
Such moral imperatives were understood by nature and human conscience as well as being proclaimed by prophets before they were written in God’s word. These are distinct from commands that were uniquely required by God of His chosen earthly people, Israel. God required, among other things, that Israelites not eat unclean animals. Noah was not commanded this, although God did instruct Him to bring seven times as many clean animals on the ark. (It is not clear that Noah knew these animals were clean as opposed to unclean. But Moses described them this way when he wrote the book of Genesis.)
Gentiles are not required to become Jews or abstain from eating unclean animals in order to be saved. There may be benefits from following some or all of the dietary requirements of the Law, but there is not a moral imperative to do so. The same applies to circumcision. However, fornication is a moral imperative that originates from God’s unique design of the Man and Woman in the garden of Eden. He designed them to have a life-long, monogamous relationship which begins at marriage (for their offspring). The proscription against fornication is reiterated in the New Testament continuously. This never changed at any time.
And, my congratulations to you on having a bright -- and, obviously well-reared -- daughter!!
Wow.
So, uh, tell me then in your own words how homosexuality is okay.
Confirmed
The perp found, left pic on facebook claiming responsibility
Read a few verses beginning at both Mark 10:6 and Matthew 19:4, it is GOD’s teaching on...marriage.
First of all we should stop using the word 'gay'. They are not gay in the original sense of that word they are troubled people. The original definition of homosexuals was SSAD, i.e. Same Sex Attraction Disorder. They are disordered people and need help not encouragement. But I fear we are well beyond that now. I don't know how we can get back to an "ordered" society. They used to be in a "closet" for a reason, they and everyone else knew that it was a sickness. I pray that America will elect a moral leader that will lead us out of this darkness. Pray hard people. Pray!
Now i see why they call themselves gay, to counter the ssad label
Hold fast to our principles and the left will crumble with their craziness
May God watch over usall
I think it was a Catholic effort.
This is *my* "rainbow" FB image. :)
