Here in lies the crux of this issue - most people in a church aren’t against homosexuals being in “their church.” Name me ONE church, when humans are within, that is empty of sin; you can’t, because as you know, we are ALL with sin!

If you drink too much, society, the world, and even scripture tells you that you need to change. So, therefore it is easier for you to see the error of your ways, and therefore easier to find the path to Jesus.

However, if the entire world and most of society is screaming that what you are doing is perfectly okay, and NOT sinful, then you will more easily lay and even wallow in that sin! And all the while, you will forever be blaming the “church” for your failure to come to the Lord. Oh sure, they point their hatred towards those within the church, but what is really the problem?

The first step to salvation is acknowledging that we are a sinful human being, that NEEDS cleansing. The homosexual hostility towards the church isn’t JUST against the “better than you on Sunday” crowd; their issue is REALLY with the Scripture itself!

My daughter has become a lesbian. I still love her. I love her partner, because she loves my daughter. But, I have told them, in no uncertain terms, that I believe what they are doing is WRONG and a SIN! So, until SHE realizes that she is making a spiritual mistake, she will continue to wallow in her earthly pleasures - as most of us Christians did, before we found our salvation.

Someone stated it PERFECTLY, earlier on this thread: as the sheep of the Christian church are getting devoured by the wolves, this Pope is blaming the sheep! Until the WOLVES decide to live violence-free among the sheep, no amount of “love” is going to change the wolves!
