Practically acosted at Home Depot:D
If you intend to boycott every group, company or government that supports gays you might want to move to N. Korea, but I'll bet they have gays there as well. :D
Simple fact: they are everywhere and it's not new or just a fad, but obviously human nature or it wouldn't be so wide spread throughout history and include all races .
Die hard judgment passing Christians scare me more than gays do.
i know im fighting against the tide...but it is a fight worth fighting
we're all sinners, myself included, but some sins incur a harsher penalty then others
take the life of Moses, for example
in Exodus 2:12 we find him killing an egyptian slavedriver and there is no penalty issues from God
BUT in Numbers 20:11 we see Moses smite a rock, when God had instructed him to speak to it, and God punishes Moses by forbidding him to enter the promised land
God is in fact saying that Moses' life goal, to lead the people into Canaan will not be accomplished and he will DIE in the wilderness
now, what then, was the big difference between striking the Egyptian and striking the rock?
1st Corinthians 10:4 tells us "that rock was Christ"
so God puts a high premium on people destroying the image of Jesus Christ, because Jesus Christ is the ONLY way to God and if you destroy his image, you are in fact destroying the milemarkers to salvation
now, consider, Ephesians 5:25 for a moment:
Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
Marriage, is a picture of Christ
sodomites undermine and destroy marriage and in doing so, destroy the picture of Christ and His church and God does not take that lightly
so i dare say, that sodomy is a sin not to be taken lightly
what IS to be taken lightly is the claim that "they are everywhere and it is just human nature"
"they" are not, and it is not, it is a perversion of healthy God given human sexuality, just like pedophilia or necrophilia
it is a choice, the choice to rebel against God and give into the flesh, seeking a unnatural gratification and a shortcut to a happiness God has designed for marriage
it is NOT however, unforgivable, or incurable
just like my own evil deeds, it has allready been paid for by the precious blood of Christ Jesus, and if the person involved in this will only accept the fact he or she is a sinner, who is rebelling against a Holy God and is willing to admit this, God is willing to apply the Blood of His Precious son to their account and declare them forgiven
of course, forgiveness does not mean there will be no consequences
