[ inhospitality is what homosexuals want it to be. ]
That is correct.
Another misreading I find fascinating is how people interpret matthew 5:32, both parts:
The first part: But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, makes her the victim of adultery...
Many say that proves it is ok to divorce your wife if she commits adultery. But what it actually is saying is that if you divorce your wife you make her the victim of adultery, UNLESS it is because SHE committed adultery first. What it is really saying is that you cannot make someone an adulteress if they already made themself one. It is NOT saying that it’s ok or not ok to divorce them. It’s saying that if you divorce them for any reason other than their own adultery, you make them a victim of adultery, otherwise, They made themself a victim of adultery.
And the latter part: “...and anyone who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.”
I’m challenged by that one because both my wife and I were divorced when we married. And at 43 that is about all you have to choose from that is not single for worse reasons. I have a hard time reconciling that, though we’ve lived infinitely happier these last 20 years than I did with my first wife the first 20. And I didn’t divorce her. She divorced me. Same thing happened to my wife. We were both evicted from our marriages and then found each other.
The Lord does work in mysterious ways. I’ve gotta ask him what he was really driving at with that verse. Both halves.
[verse 49] "Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy."
But they never continue with the full reference:
[verse 50] "And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good."
You mean you agree with them or not ?
