@@johnmark150 Thank you John. Jesus was gay, so of course he didn't preach against it. Jesus being gay is what made me so proud of being gay. And John, the Bible has 368 admonishments to heterosexuals and only 6 for homosexuals. It doesn't mean that God doesn't love heterosexuals. He just feels heterosexuals need much more supervision. So keep that in mind. Homosexuality is Nature's birth control. God created us for that reason and because he loves Gay people just a little bit more than heterosexuals. Which is why God invented the rainbow for the LGBTQ community.

It's a great speech isn't it. No offence intended but generally it's not appropriate to say "God bless" to a priest because implicit in that is the idea that you are in a position to give him a blessing, when actually he's the one in a position to give you a blessing. Just thought I should let you know in case someone takes umbrage at it. Most priests wouldn't of course, but still, it isn't really correct etiquette.

I was forced to reconsider many positions I had previously held. I was able to recognize the Truth of Jesus Christ once I was exposed to the truth, without the distractions of heresy cluttering my mind. Your channel was my first exposure to the Jesus prayer. I will be joining the Orthodox Church this year with my family and the videos you have posted have had a profound impact on this decision. My son's will be baptized Orthodox.

Consider each new day a gift from above, a miracle, a chance to repent and He will not forsake you.

AL OM There are no supernatural gods period. Don’t lie to yourself! It’s lying to yourself to even suggest Gods exist. You don’t have to believe in something that isn’t True to be a Spiritual person, but when we put a name on it like Jesus or Mohammed or Allah or God or Zeus, it’s all made up by man. It just makes us religious people, led by mythology. There’s no intelligence that watches over us or that can change reality.

It is a difficult conversation to have with non Christians as most do not believe in the concept of the eternal soul so to them our flesh, our thoughts, and our desires are truly "who we are", and therefore to oppose someone's sexual desires is to oppose their very selves. Since I believe in an eternal soul it's a lot easier for me to understand that physical desires are not an intrinsic part of the self. But I'm not sure how you convince someone who doesn't believe in the soul of that. How are we supposed to argue for what is against human nature when we don't even agree on what humanity is?

Sir, excuse my impertinence but it is LGBT "Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender" against LGBT "Let God Be True" Romans 3:4. Even the rainbow belongs to us as it was first given to Noah as a sign of promise from God and God is not a man that He should lie (Numbers 23:19).

Actually Rand, you're wrong and reading a mistranslation of the Bible. The Rainbow has ALWAYS been God's promise to the LGBTQ Community that he's got our backs! GOD GAVE THE LGBTQ Community HIs Rainbow to remind us that we are his CHOSEN PEOPLE! This has always been the case. The Noah nonsense was a myth you fool and science proved it never happened. This is simple shit. So WHENVER YOU SEE THE RAINBOW, remember that it's GOD sign for the GAY COMMUNITY! And Rand the Bible contains 368 admonishments to heterosexuals and only 6 for homosexuals. This doens't mean that God doesn't love you heterosexuals, it just means that God FEELS you heterosexuals NEED MUCH MORE SUPERVISION! But He Still loves you in His own Unique way! He just loves Gay folks more. Thanks.

In my experience with lgbt acquaintances, the understanding of the 'passions' and the brokenness of each of us psychologically is not present for them. They have found a very unsatisfactory answer to their confusion and pain and did not really 'will' it to be so. Delusion is spoken of constantly in the Patristic Christian literature, always commanding compassion for those afflicted. The upshot is that we tell the truth but in a way that can hopefully turn on the light inside each friend struggling with such passions. Think of how gentle our own spiritual father/guide or the Elders we meet in such places as the Mt Athos monasteries, are when they see our blindness and confusion. They bide their time to tell us so we won't run away in anger or feelings of betrayal. So legal sanctions and force never works in this case, just understanding.

Daniel, I felt a similar way when I used to be heterosexual, but since I've become homosexual, I don't have those unique heterosexual issues. I'm free from your Biblical rules. You see Daniel, the Bible was written FOR HETEROSEXUALS, That's why the Bible has 368 admonishments to heterosexuals and only 6 for homosexuals. It doens't mean that God doesn't love you heterosexuals, it just that God feels you heterosexuals need MUCH MORE SUPERVISION! That's why the Bible has more rules for you heteros. He understands your unique problems that LGBTQ folks don't suffer from. But he still does love you in his unique way. Just not as much as the LGBTQ Community which is why he gave us the rainbow as a symbol for his love and dedication to his chosen people, the LGBTQ Community!
@danieleriksen11304 жыл бұрын
@@ColonPal I sense you are a very kind person, wanting the best.But I respectfully disagree with you. The 'passions' are incredibly tricky; we don't know we have them usually until we see the harm they do. For instance a CEO of a multinational corporation probably does not even notice the incredible damage his business is doing to the environment, to communities, to workers, etc because his passion of greed and narcissism is totally hidden in justifications like: the Bible rewards those who work hard, (the Protestant 'work ethic' theology came out of this attitude, developed formally by Max Weber, today you see it in the 'prosperity gospel' of Evangelical TV preachers, and parodied in Janis Joplin's 'Lordy, give me a Mercedes Benz' song). The top 1% see their ripping off of society justified as their reward for their hard work and self-sacrifice for success. (I had a personal 1 hour conversation with a Goldman Saks Vice President once at his house over this and he became very defensive, seeing that the point I made was valid. We parted on good terms, luckily). Another passion that is probably the most powerful is the sexual drive. It easily gets distorted and becomes 'sinful' (defined in classical Christian terms as 'missing the mark' as in archery trying to hit the target/goal) when it is selfish or out-of-control so much that we don't even see the distortion any longer. Those caught in prostitution or addictive viewing of pornography are victims of this. Bill Clinton, or recently Jeffery Epstein, Bill Cosby et al are stuck in this passion. Gay/LGBT I would suggest is in this direction but much more 'normal' if I could say that. It is a sexual mis-direction but totally understandable. You know the stock psychological 'explanations': lack of a father figure in childhood, aggressive mother, fear of the 'other', etc. Ok, fine, but it is more than that. It is also a natural desire to be loved by someone. The Bible only points out that it is misdirected from the deepest goals. That's something that can only be understood by experience. That being said, a funny thing happens in Christianity that doesn't on the Progressive Left side of things; Gay/LGBT people are accepted as Persons on the Conservative/Biblical side. If you cross the Left ideologically, you are shunned and attacked. Check out Dave Rubin Report or 'Walk Away.com' for two Conservative Gay men who are amazing. Deeply good people and Gay. Accepted by the Christian community despite the Biblical prohibitions. Didn't Christ say on the Cross, "forgive them for they know not what they are doing"? This is the only hope of all of us. We do not know most of the time what we are doing (should all greedy CEO's and sex addicted politicians be condemned for ever?...no.) Tolerance of Persons, not the passions we have is the key. I have two Lesbian friends, we never 'preach' that their marriage is wrong, even though we do see it as a 'truncated' way of commitment between the sexes. They are friends. A last comment; no one has 'unique problems' because we all have the same human nature. LGBTQ folks suffer from exactly same flaws/passions. We just don't see them for now, ie., delusion. Too, the number of times that the Bible states something is not a measure of importance. The Ten Commandments state only once to 'not kill' another person, it doesn't need more, since it should be obvious and commonsense. The Bible is not about rules, it is a way of connecting with 'God', an inner discipline similar to Buddhist 'mindfulness' that leads us to see ourselves and others as we really are, and ultimately to prepare us to accept the 'energies' or grace from God to be healed inwardly. I'm speaking here specifically about the Eastern Orthodox Tradition, since the Western Roman Catholic and Protestant traditions have long lost or never had this. 'Identity politics' is a false narrative, cf., Jordan Peterson's lectures on KZfaq about that topic. There really is no LGBTQ or Heterosexual or 1% Rich or Hardened Criminal or Alt Right or Progressive Left ...."Community" but only us, human beings, "Persons" who drift in and out of these groups over time as we change or mature. The Bible is about these things and helping us choose a healthy path. Anyway, this is too long and I figure it may not seem reasonable to you but I appreciate your point of view above. Take care.
