....... why are you "Christians" so hell bent on condemning homosexuals? Are you just bigots, or what?"

Christians don't condem homosexuals from what I have seen, they condemn the sins they commit (homosexual acts) and see their promotion of these practices as being "normal" as being destructive to society and worthy of condemnation. It would be like if you met someone who was saying that he was not only a rapist, but thinks that this is okay behavior and encourages others to find it acceptable as well. The point is that they don't hate the sinner, they hate the sins they commit.

Whoa! Hold up here. Who is condemning anyone?
If someone on Yahoo Answers asks a question about homosexuality, I'll answer from the bible, which says it's a sin, in God's eyes. I'm sorry if that infuriates people...but I'm not going to compromise God's word.
Yes, God forgives. But forgiveness comes from repentance. And the root meaning of repent is to "turn from". As Jesus said to the woman He saved from being stoned as an adulteress, "go and sin no more".

If you are a Bible believer, you know why GOD condemns homosexuals.
There is no bigotry involved, except maybe the bigotry YOU have toward Christians.
We go by what God says and what God says only.
If you Aren't a Bible believer, you should try it sometime. You can answer a lot of your own questions by reading it.
God forgive those who ask for forgivenes and repent of their sins. An acting homosexual isn't repentant and keeps acting on their sins. This type of behavior is NOT a forgiven sin. IF they would ask for forgiveness and STOP that action, then the sin would be forgiven.

eeeeh...
Not all Christians are...
I'm not...
Christians who study the Bible should realize that all sin is equal. And all humans sin. So no one is worse. And no one can, or should ever, be condemned by anyone else than God.
Even then, Hell is a myth created by Roman Catholicism. There is no eternal firey hell.
The dead are waiting in a place called Sheol until the end times. We will all get a chance to live again, and everyone will get a chance again to believe in God or not.
Didn't Christianity make life seem a little bit unfair????
Yah? Well it wasn't God spreading myths about hell, it was man.
God cares for his children, and no homosexual who believes in God is going to ever suffer eternally for their sins.

Homosexuality is just a Sin, like any other Sin.
What Condemn's People is not Accepting JESUS as your SAVIOUR.
HE IS the Only One Who Can Save You.
Religion's just make you feel better in your Feeler's.
JESUS Love's Everybody.
Hope this helps.

Although God does forgive all,he does'nt just keep on doing it time
and time again.one is supposed to repent and cease commiting
the same sin over and over.God forgave the Isrealites many,many
times,but they kept on following false gods,and doing bad in the
true Gods eyes.finally he gave up on them. true Christians do
not condemn anyone they only hope to help honest hearted persons
to come to an accurate knowledge of truth.homosexual persons
can and do change there lifestyles in accordance with GODs
wishes and commandments.

before each little thing, what do you mean through "enable"? What does this precisely mean in this question? Secondly, you're assuming that suffering has no fee and is intrinsically evil (something that no thoroughly sturdy, loving, merciful God might want to ever "enable"). is this authentic, even with the undeniable fact that? an exceedingly user-friendly, small party is the suffering many persons delight in as a thanks to change into staggering athletes. This suffering is termed "prepare". further, Aristotle rightly talked about that growing knowledgeable isn't for the weak because it comprises some quantity of suffering (because that we ought to always confront our lack of understanding and pretend beliefs, and doing so is painful and experiencing discomfort over the years is suffering). Thirdly, i imagine it is also significant to comprehend that when we settle for that we are accountable of a few incorrect adversarial to some individual who did not deserve it we sense discomfort. Take operating example a guy dishonest on his spouse. His confronts his spouse about his incorrect. His spouse comes to a call to artwork issues out, even with the undeniable fact that the husband is pained about this for months. he's pained as a results of melancholy and discomfort his spouse is experiencing. even with the very undeniable actuality that he continuously apologizes to her, and she reassures him that she has forgiven him, he remains suffering the incorrect he has carried out adversarial to her. Such discomfort is a outcome of guilt. even even with the undeniable fact that we will be forgiven through God, we can go in the course of the discomfort of guilt that we've dedicated adversarial to a God who's perfect. nevertheless, guilt has it really is fee, for it educates us in this variety of fashion that we do not commit an same incorrect back. desire this permits.

Why do you say that he WILL forgive all?
"Jacob I loved but Esau I hated".
"Depart from me, I never knew you".
He can forgive all and just because he will forgive something, is it right?? I could kill people till the day that I die. I don't care, He will forgive me right?
He will not forgive everyone and many though to be "righteous" will fall. And many evil people can be forgiven late in life too.
Your doctrine is very wrong, maybe you should actually read a bible.

You can't just ask for forgiveness and then keep on living a life of sin. You must repent of the sin and let the Lord change you from the inside out.

No, they have reasons like "It's in the Bible so he's technically condemned"....
That's the flip side of religion... they draw you in.... then when they've got ya... They show you the real "laws" and rules...
If God forgives all, then I would supposedly go to Heaven when I "deserve" to go to Hell... But that would really suck because I don't really like religious people, they never have anything good to talk about!
