HOGWASH: Romans 1:26-27 26 For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; 27 and the MEN likewise gave up natural relations with WOMEN and were consumed with passion for one another, MEN COMMITTING SHAMELESS ACTS WITH MEN and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.

Jesus spoke quite clearly, "It is not that which goes into the mouth that defilith, but that which go out." Jesus said sucking Peter was OK. Here's the exact verse: Matthew 15:11 "it is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what comes out of the mouth; this defiles a person".

I suspect that beimg celibate would also have been considered unnatural by the Romans. If I recall correctly, there was conflict between Paul with his anti-marriage sentiment, and Peter stating that there were those who 'listened to demons, forbidding to marry'...

@Scribeintheink Ай бұрын

Peter is not the one who anything about “listening to demons, forbidding to marry” that was Paul. This is because Paul was not “anti marriage” He simply thought that not being married may be better in terms of being free to serve God alone

This is really sad to see. That is a clearly unbiblical view, and is twisting the words of scripture to fit your desires. I've no hate towards you or your friends at all, but it pains me to see someone using God's word to lead people further from Him. Sure, it'll make things easy, and it'll feel "freeing". Broad roads have a habit of doing that. But they only lead to destruction. Whatever love or satisfaction or comfort or peace the devil offers you, it will never be the truest version of that thing, which only God can provide. Sometimes trusting in Him means huge sacrifice, it means giving up how we want to do life. But no matter how hard the fight, it's always worth it.

How do you know if it is gods will or your will? If God will need to be straight, but I’m gay does that mean I’m more powerful than God?

How would Jesus treat a beat up man He found by the roadside? Even if he were wearing a coat of many colors?

@@samuelbarns118 I believe that if Jesus passed a beaten man with a rainbow pride flag, Jesus would spend his last penny to put that gay dude up in a hotel and be cared for. I don't think Jesus would prioritize the dude's bedroom life, probably wouldn't even mention it. I'm no expert, that's just what I got from the Good Samaritan parable.

@@godgetti I see. There are actually some really applicable stories in the Bible which speak to this. When Jesus encountered someone in need, he healed them, but told them to stop sinning, lest something worse happen to them. Yes, Jesus would (I'm sure) help the man in your scenario, as should any Christian. However Jesus also calls us to repent, and to go and sin no more. Jesus is forgiving, so whatever you've done, and whatever sins you've struggled with, if you turn from them, to him (that's what repentance is) then he'll welcome you and forgive you. Hopefully that makes sense.

“I did a little more learning” No you didn’t. You twisted the word to support your own depraved desires

Most people think that “turning the other cheek” is to let go of someone’s harmful behavior, but in the cultural perspective it actually meant to demand equality. It was also considered an insult for someone to need to use a different hand to slap them. It was considered unclean. If that was misinterpreted, why wouldn’t this?

In what ways is God the Father male?

@44ARISEandSHINE44 Ай бұрын

So basically you decided to create your own god in your head rather than ASK God what he thinks? You know you can just ask him, right? I was confused on this issue but rather than descending into delusion I ASKED God. He answered me. You might be able to deceive people who are merely reading a book... but not people who already discovered God is very real, and he answers genuine questions for people who genuinely want to know truth.

@@godgetti Jesus said: "I and the father are one" and he came to the earth as male. He refers to himself this way in the Bible, and if you ever have a dream where he speaks to you: you will hear a male voice. I imagine it is the same for everyone in their own language.... just a normal, perfect, male voice. Not too low, not too high, just right lol. I would advise you to search by asking him. I guess it can be fun to use his interesting stories and lessons for your own agenda but if finding is truth is what you want, just ask him. Everyone has an opinion, but his is the only one that matters.
