Let's take "lust" off the list of seven deadly sins and replace it with "ugliness".

The followers of Paul emphasize grace alone as the way to Heaven, whereas the followers of Jesus recognize that unless they achieve perfection in the Word and work the will of the Father (as taught in the Sermon on the Mount) they will not achieve Heaven.

The followers of Paul release themselves from guilt for any action they conduct that is not in accordance with the Word (persecution, hatred, war), whereas the followers of Jesus recognize that such behaviour keeps them from achieving Heaven and do not conduct themselves in such a manner.

Isn't Paul the true anti-christ, trying to undermine the Words of Jesus by claiming he is one of them (in other words, he is a wolf in sheep's clothing, trying to ensnare the unwary).

Is it ironic that George Bush legalizes torture while getting most of his support from a large group of people that pray to someone that was severely tortured (AKA Jesus)?

If everybody dies & either goes to heaven or hell, what was the point of God creating the earth? Thay say a day to God is a thousand years, so why would he spend 6000 years creating the earth if we won't be here long anyway?

PRACTICES LOVE: true worshippers are "no part of the world" are not divided by race or culture and display loove among themselves. Rather than killing one another, they are willing to die for one another. - 1 john 3:16

TRUSTS GOD'S WORD: instead of teaching "traditions" and "commands of men as doctrines" true religion bases its doctrines on God's inspired word the bible. Why? because all scripture is inspired of God - 2Timothy 3:16

STRENGTHENS FAMILIES AND UPHOLDS HIGH MORAL STANDARDS: True religion trains husbands to "love their wives as their own bodies" helps wives to develope "deep resect for their husbands" and teaches children to "be obedient to their parents" ephesians 5:28, 33 6:1 In addition those entrusted with positions of authority must have exemplary morals - 1 Timothy 3:1-10

DOES ANY RELIGION MEET THESE STANDARDS

I know that ideally it would be good to buy from these ethical clothing companies but I really can't afford to. So is it better to buy from the cheap companies who employ workers and pay them rubbish money so at least they have work, or just buy from local places?

I am looking specifically for a website that has like a forum where queer men who are not into the "mainstream queer culture" talk about issues that are important. What I am NOT after are gay dating sites or hook-up places. I am interested to know, if anyone knows, of a site or sites, that cater's for gay men/boys who perhaps are labelled "alternative"?

"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say unto me, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then I will profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." Matthew 7:21-22

"Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect." Matthew 5:48

or

"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God...Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of law." Romans 3:23-28

"In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel." Romans 2:16

Who is Paul to claim God will judge men according to the words of Paul?

What are Paul's words compared to the Word of Jesus? Who is Paul to gainsay Jesus? He is but a man who killed Christians.

we die then pass into heaven or hell
our spirit remains alive and dosnt go to sleep awaiting any judgment ;
our deeds determine wether we go to the light or dwell in darkness ,we can redeem our right to enter the light by assisting others to arise above their and our own fears
please answer
if you believe we stay asleep till a given day of judgment please answer with a sure date
if you feel we are to be judged do we get time off for being undead for a longer time?
what of those having been dead for over 6000 years is god that unfair
please dont worry that i will be offended ,i only want the truth
god is love ,love dont judge?
am i a sinner for thinking god is love and not judgmental.
if i am baptised will all my future sins be forgiven?
i have recieved baptism thus i cant be judged right?
my baptism means jesus takes all my sin away right?
please be truthfull
please provide facts

My opinion is that a homophobe is someone who directs hateful remarks towards people with a different sexual orientation.

Do not say that it's just their opinion, because their is a difference between hate speech and opinion.

E.g. Opinion - I do not agree with your lifestyle.
Hate speech - Should we tag gays to make sure they do not come near children?

How would you classify someone as a homophobe? What characteristics do you look at when you call someone a homophobe?
