There's an important distinction that people like you don't grasp. Me and people like me don't dislike gay people. We think they are God's children just like anyone else. What we are against is homosexual acts. Just like we don't dislike adultorers, we just dislike the action they chose to go forward with. It's the old adage - love the sinner, hate the sin. I've known gay people, and I'm fine with them - some of them are extremely kind and generous. But what I am against is if the act out on their tendancy. We all have weaknesses, some are prone to alcoholism, but it doesn't mean that it's ok for them to drink alcohol. Some are prone to drugs, but....you get the picture. It may seem cruel to some to count homosexual acts as sins, but I didn't make the rules, I just trust that God knows what is right and what isn't.

God never says in the Bible that he didn't create homosexuals. He does say that He would never make us be sinners. It is a choice that we make. He does say in various places that Homosexuals, adulterers, cheaters, thieves, witches and many who partake in other sins, will not go to heaven. He loves all His creation, but those who practice sinful lifestyles without repenting will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven. He, as He commands all Christians, loves the sinner, but hates the sin. This may not be the answer you were looking for, but I will not sugar coat what God's Word says. If you are gay, He loves you, but not what you do. He will accept you into His Kingdom if you are repentant, just like He will accept a repentant murderer, adulterer, thief or anyone else. Blessings.

Sweety there's a great sort of anger in you and that i'm sorry which you won't be able to locate your area of interest in this worldwide of religion.(i'm no longer too keen on the entire Bible is the actuality ingredient the two. It replace into written by making use of people and altered by making use of people to suite their needs, it is composed of the information of God yet isn't the authority) yet I assure you there are church homes that permit homosexuals into their fold as truly as those uptight slender minded church homes do no longer. i'm no longer condoning homosexuality, it truly is against the organic regulation, how can a male and male or woman and woman produce an offspring? the entire factor of intercourse is to procreate, in any different case it truly is basically approximately intercourse and has no factor. And in case you look heavily you will locate that area and climate has an consequence on the peoples. And 4 hundred years is a drop in an truly massive bucket for evolution to alter one ethnicity into yet another, and that i wager the descendants of the Spanish who occupied the Philippines do look a sprint distinctive if in user-friendly terms with the aid of assimilation of the subculture. I haven't any church, there is none in my aria that welcomes my very own ideals so I evaluate my faith on my very own, sharing it with all of us who'll pay attention. God is with me each and all of the time, of this i'm particular! "he's not in a house of wood and stone yet interior the hearts of His people." define your faith to your self seek your heart, what do you think? Then have faith that which contain your finished being and God would be with you often.

Homosexuals are not God's creation. They actually defy God's design for man and woman.
Romans 1 is very clear about same sex unions being vile and an abomination.
Homosexuality is against nature. It is not natural. God designed a man and woman's body to fit together perfectly for His purposes which are that they become one flesh and procreate.
Two men together is a misuse of God's design, as well as two women together is a misuse of God's design.
Romans 1

When the bible was written, the earth needed to be populated. Now that is no longer true. So who is to say God didn't create Homosexuals to keep the population down? It could happen *smiles*

Ahhh...it says God created man....it says man and man and woman and woman is admonidation...but it seems that all religious leaders has forgotten this...love the sinner but hate the sin...love thy brethren...honor thy neighbor..love each other.
They like to point out the bad things and preach about it....they totally forgot the good things to preach about and then they wonder why ppl are not coming to services...oh well...i have no issues with gays...for i can not judge them nor condenm them for I yet have not gone through my judging time with God. And I can't cast that first stone either. I broke one of the ten commandment rules.....

Absolutely not! According to Genesis God made man in his image. What you do and who you do are points that men seem to need to fight about and point out to each other. For them I would quote the following: Matthew 7:3. "Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?" And "Judge not, that you be not judged."

We are all His creations. However, homosexuality is man's creation and is not of God. God destroyed two cities (Sodom and Gomorrah) due to homosexuality along with other acts that were not Godly. You can read about that in Genesis.

It sounds like you're gay? What the hell are you doing looking for spiritual guidance in a Christian church? They "love the sinner and hate the sin". That's twisted and empty rhetoric. It's tacit condemnation. They are not your people. Wake up!

Nope.
The best response to that nonsense I have ever read was what is in the link below.
Read it and relax. You don't need that preacher to explain what you know in your heart is true.
