Should homosexuals be put into jail?

[NayborBear]

Yes because the world is encouraging it. It's on tv. On the soap operas. Raul Pauls Drag race. I know a lot of people who are going with the same sex. Some that were straight.

Yeah? Not many places left, where they ain't!

Didn't realize they handed out doormats to hang around Christian's necks! Or, if they did? I never went and picked mine up from the "cleaner's!"

I guess, it's just a "sign of the times!" Cuz satan has but a little time left! and he KNOWS IT!

"TIC-TIC-TIC!"

He wouldn't accept them, and he wouldn't ask them to leave if they were among the multitudes he was speaking to. He would encourage them to repent. Jesus seldom pointed out the sin in people. The only instance I can think of is the woman at the well. The people he was against was the self-righteous religious and political Jewish establishments of his day. Kind of like the "Slayer" types.

Then he would cast those demons out

Find a Christian who struggles with exiting the homosexual lifestyle. Try your approach and see how effective it is... or isn't. If you are correct, it will work on every single person, both quickly and thoroughly.



The word is "accept".

....Or, when Jesus wrote on the ground in the midst of those men who were about to stone a woman for adultery.

....Or, when he took a "cat o nine tails" to the merchants in the Temple.

Are you saying you know Christians that are homosexuals?

Are you saying you know Christians that are homosexuals?

I know there is at least one Christian ministry focusing on helping people get free from the homosexual lifestyle.

Should homosexuals be put into jail?

The answer is no since this would violate the laws of our countries and we are called to be lawful!

I hope that it helps someone. Some of them don't want any help they just like singing in the choir.

I heard the testimony of a former homosexual who repented and God changed him back into a normal person. He is now happily married and has two children, he is living proof that God can heal homosexuals and restore them back to the way they should be.

You're right about those who love their sin so much that they don't want to change. I find it amazing that practicing homosexuals can call themselves Christian, but then again Hitler claimed to be a Christian as well.

That's being silly.

You presumption I’m a sinner, even by the standards of your twisted theology, is what’s silly.

 

[pottersclay]

When you found Christ did you keep sinning intentionally?

We sin because we are sinners....this has to do with brothers and sisters in Christ. The unsaved are not brothers nor sisters.

We are not sinners because we sin we sin because we're sinners. John said when we sin (not if) know and remember we have a advocate Jesus Christ.

 

[DissilyMordentroge]

I would rather confront them with the Gospel,

There are a number of frequently quoted texts from The New Testament used to buttress ‘clear teaching of the bible’ against homosexuality. One of these, 1st Timothy Ch1: V 10 - sometimes attributed to Paul (most New Testament scholars now deny this attribution) In this epistle the ancient greek word arsenokoitis is used. It is often rendered as ‘sodomites’ (instance Revised Standard Version) . Translated as ‘them that defile themselves with mankind’ in The King James version. The majority of scholars of ancient Greek tell us aresenokoitis , judged by it’s contextual usage at the time, had a meaning close to ‘one who abuses personal relationships for profit or material gain such as a prostitutes pimp.
Which translation do you adhere to as ‘gospel truth’?

 

[Papou]

It is surprising to see so much hate against homosexuals on a christian site. There are many saints who were homosexuals and many heterosexuals who weren't. Jesus never condemned them. Why would you?

And many Popes, Bishops, Monks etc and even a number of all singin all dancin rock and roll evangelicals. Ah yes, Satan’s work again. Amazing how his works provide an excuse for so much.

Exactly, homosexuality is often an excuse to condemn those who do a lot of good deeds around them. Satan knows how to deceive weak christians...

Satan is no more than an excuse for many directly responsible for their own actions.

You don't want to believe what the Bible says.

The same verse mentions male prostitutes, liars, perjurers, and kidnappers. One sin or a million sins, it doesn't matter. If we keep all the commandments except one, we are guilty of all of them.

"For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law."

You may as well just say, I can sin because I'm under Grace. What did Paul say about that?
