It has been suggested to me that homosexuals do not have an anti-Christian or social agenda in America. That is poppycock. In fact the pattern of homosexual rights groups is to invalidate Christianity as an archaic system of thought. Why would homosexuals do this? The answer is quite easy. The Word of God (deluded homosexuals deny this incidentally) specifically pronounces the practice of homosexuality as a sin.
A few unintelligent homosexuals will tell you that the word “homosexual” is not in the Bible. Well duh! Neither is the word “automobile,” however it is just as immoral to steal a car as a cow.
Under the old Covenant (Old Testament) homosexuality was a high sin that required the price of death. You can look up the Levitical citations yourself.
Under the New Covenant (New Testament) it is still pronounced wrong. In the New Covenant Christ has redeemed those who have lived a sinful life by believing on the Risen Lord. That includes all of humanity. The penalty of sin is paid by Christ. However to be a Believer and to continue to overtly sin will separate you from God. I am not a “once saved always saved” kind-of-guy, but I do push the line into that crowd. I believe Grace is for all; even it is one’s dieing breath. I am a make it into Heaven by the “skin of your teeth” kind-of-guy. As a Christian I have done some foolish sins I am ashamed of, thank God there is now therefore NO condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. (Romans 8:1) The provision is to walk in the spirit and not in the flesh. When you are calling on the name of Christ, you are in the spirit. I do not care how bad you are or have been. On the other hand do not think you can fool God with verbal affirmations. The Lord God KNOWS the heart of humanity if it is truth or a lie.

Now the bold liberal who chose to question me on my Christianity was from the MindSay blog known as mrfictitious. To mrfictitious’ credit he did not rant and rave in obscenities as most liberals, however due to my belief system he felt fit to call me a fascist. Below is my response to mrfictitious.
Friend if you are a Christian and a liberal I suspect you are under the left wing delusion that the Bible is irrelevant. That means your Christianity is challengeable. If you do not believe in Christian morality you are denying Christ and His Word. Because I believe that does not make me a fascist, however it comes close to making you a deluded communist. Either you believe in Christ is Risen or you don’t. Either you believe in the Word of God or you don’t. Attempting to humanize the Word of God is mere atrocity and effrontery to the Divinity of Christ.
I know that there are good sincere people that liberals and leftists; however that does not validate that way of thinking. Most liberals (the good ones) are deluded, the rest (the bad ones) are out right liars and manipulators.
I appreciate the civil tone in your opinion; however I do not appreciate you calling me a fascist because you disagree with my opinion. Of course that is the way of liberal leftist thinking. You can’t help it.

Ah, yes, another argument for the condemnation of another's habitual sin using a misunderstanding of New Testament teaching. According to the Lord Jesus Christ, even to gaze upon another with lust is to be guilty of adultery (and, by implication, legally subject to it's penalty under the law of Moses-death). Who among us is innocent? By his infallible logic, even to take pleasure in certain pornography, say two women getting it on, would make one guilty of homosexuality, wouldn't it? Sin, is after all, a matter of the heart. That all sin is forgiven by the sacrifice of the son of God is the essence of the Good News. It is instructive to note the wording of 1st Corinthians 6:11, since verses 9 and 10 are so often quoted to prove to condemn homosexuality:
"And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God."
While Paul speaks in the future tense in the previous verses "shall not inherit," he uses the past tense here, the action having already been accomplished--the washing, the sanctifying, the justifying are not the work that the sinner must do for himself, but the effect of the "name" and the "Spirit."
Moreover, he implies that salvation is a matter of a new identity--"that is what some of you were," but not any more. We must not hold any man to his sins when the Lord has released him.
Yours in Christ, Nick
Nick there is no misinterpretation of Scripture on my part. Sin is not actually a matter of the heart. Sin are those choices made that separate one from God. The Word of God is the manual. The New Testament is the manual based on Grace from the Redemption of Christ. Christ died for sins and the Lord's Blood is applied for the repentence of sin after being Born Again. Repentence means making a considered effort to abandon that which is sinful. God's Mercy - again supplied by the Blood of Christ - is a path for repeat offenders to get it right by softening their heart (i.e. the inner man transforming the mind and body). Christ is about Forgiveness and Acceptance; however the Gospels point out that when Christ delivered a person and forgave their sins, they were always instructed to go and sin no more.
The problem often times with Biblical Christians is an attitude of disdainment for repeat and/or unrepentant sinners. Believers are directed to pray for those that the Blood of Christ turns one from darkness to the Light of the Kingdom of God that reunites us into the Presence of God. This is the Salvation available in Christ. Therefore there in NOW no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.
To all in Christ, John
