Except for the fact that he has read the Bible probably more often than you ever will:
The Bible is the Holy Spirit-inspired Word of God that does not need any social interpretation. The pope needs to let the Words of Jesus stand as the infallible Word of God.
“The Bible is the Holy Spirit-inspired Word of God that does not need any social interpretation. The pope needs to let the Words of Jesus stand as the infallible Word of God.”
He does. Nothing in the Bible says someone afflicted with same-sex attraction - but who perseveres in God’s grace - will burn in Hell merely for having a disordered attraction.
We’re not talking about “practicing homosexuals” here. If you’re unrepentant of serious sins - homosexual or otherwise - YOU WILL BURN IN HELL. We’re talking about someone afflicted with same-sex attraction but who wants to do as God wills. There’s a huge difference between those two things.
