Homosexual activists don't want Jesus' forgiveness for their sexual sin – they want his approval. This is something he cannot and will never offer.
Homosexual activists are fond of quoting the first half of John 8:11: "Neither do I condemn you." They are not so fond of quoting the second half. In fact, they quite pointedly ignore it as if it weren't even there. But wishing it away doesn't make it disappear.
John 7:53-8:11 preserves for us the record of Jesus' encounter with a woman caught in adultery. She was apprehended in flagrante delicto, in the act, and was dragged by the scribes and Pharisees to the feet of Jesus.
(There is no word, by the way, about the fate of the miscreant male in this sexually illicit liaison.)
The scribes and Pharisees insisted that she be executed and that Jesus be the one to pronounce the sentence. Instead, Jesus stooped and wrote something on the ground, and finally stood up and authorized any sinless man in the crowd to toss the first rock. (Since he was the only one without sin, he alone had the moral authority to stone her to death.)

Pretty much every time the subject comes up I bring this up. It’s crystal clear, but many of them don’t want to hear it.
Paul exphasizes that homosexuals will not enter the Kingdom of God. This means that they spend eternity in Hell.
How can any Christian, who claims to love their neighbor, approve of that neighbor's sin that will consign him to Hell? The same-sex marriage crowd are a devilish bunch.
Do you believe they can repent and amend their ways?
He did mention it in his article, though. That part just didn't make the excerpt.
shh....freepers voted for him the second time...one way or another...some freepers voted to keep him in power....I just can not fathom it at all...
Since Mohammed was not born for another 800 years or so, I doubt anyone would have been offended...
I do wonder about the fact that Jesus said, explicitly, four times, that anyone who marries a divorced person (absent the kind of porneia that would render the first marriage annulled) is committing adultery. Huge numbers of Americans, including Christians, are getting divorced/remarried or marrying divorcees and consequently living in a state of ongoing, legalized, public adultery.
Are any of their pastors telling them to cease sexual relations and sin no more?
Good question! That’s not crickets we hear, it’s the sound of a rat peeing on cotton!
I was in 7th or 8th grade and that Gospel was preached and I remember asking the exact same question. Quite a few people were shuffling their feet and staring at their shoes.
They walked away in confusion...
“Who was that in the drawing?”
Matthew 5:17-20
The Law was and is quite clear.
Right…. So let’s agree that there is no such thing as a homosexual as far as it representing ‘who someone is’. On the other hand, there are sodomites since this very clearly describes ‘what someone does’. This is a very important point since nowhere in scripture is there condemnation for who someone is….. only for the sin that they do. It is for this reason that I urge people to never use the words ‘gay’ and ‘homosexual’ when referring to someone or a group.....a more precise way of defining them is to suggest they are a member of a group who feel compelled to partake in perverted sexual practices that involve people of the same sex
You're excluding people who commit the act of sodomy with the opposite sex?
You are correct, there will be no homosexuals in heaven.
However there could be a whole bunch of ex-homosexuals in heaven. 1 Cor 6:9-11. Once they repent and stop associating themselves with (as) their sin, they are no longer homosexuals.
Yes I am excluding them not because sodomy with the opposite sex is either acceptable, perverted or not but simply because it is a different category.... this discussion is about those of the same sex having sex with each other.
I only meant to briefly remind us that most people (95-97%) are heterosexuals, and most sodomitic acts occur between men and women ---simply because the sheer numbers are so much higher. (Even a small percentage of them doing deviant intercourse, adds up to a whole lot of deviant intercourse.) I think the prevalence of self-serving sterile sex amongst heterosexuals, contributes to the astoundingly widespread social and political alliance of heterosexuals with the gay movement. The vast preponderance of supporters of the LGBT movement are straight: that's where the LGBT gets its lopsided political power.
Yet we rarely hear this discussed.
I think a lot of "straight" people realize that if they deplored sterile-sex practices across the board, they'd be implicating themselves. They prefer intercourse to be sterile. Therefore they are not inclined to recoil from this or that gay-favored practice, since it is so much like their own.
Also Mark 9 v42 covers it as well
And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
to teach children about homosexuality/abortion/democrat party platform values, is to harm a child.
Jesus spoke about the consequences many times for harming a child
Whoever is harming a child is I think a enemy of Christ
