The Holly Bible tells us that this is wrong and it's a sin. I know that when we are saved through the Lord Jesus Christ it's for eternity. I am saved and since being saved I try not to willingly sin. If someone is acting upon their gay feelings then they are sinning willingly and on a regular basis. That makes me wonder if someone that is acting upon their gay feelings is really saved. I know a gay lady that calls herself a minister. I don't thing God called her to preach, nor do I believe that God ordained the gay church that she preaches at.

Some people are reffering to the Holy Bible as a book written by men who wrote what they thought. Man alone could not have written the Bible without insperations from God. Man could not have predicted what would take place 2000 or more years later. Look at what is happening in this world and what the Bible said would take place. The end of time is comming and you had better be ready. Through the Lord Jesus you can be saved by God or you will be bound for the damnation of Hell.

ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!
First of all, a marriage is defined as a man and a woman joining together as one flesh and reproduce for the earth.It even says so in Genesis.
Second, gay people have to be forgiven by power of Jeus Christ. First, they need to truly repent of their transgressions and iniquities, and they have to be renewed of the mind. Only the heart will change if the gay person truly realizes his deep sin.
Third, you're correct. A lesbian minister is not ordained to preach the Gospel, as she's doing so by blaspheming the Holy Spirit and God did not call for a gay church for people to come and worship.
If you need more help on this, I suggest you read 1 Corinthians and the Book of James for starters. Leviticus is also for in-depth study.
Good luck, and we'll be praying for you.

So many thing are wrong with what you are stating. First God didn't write the bible. Second is it impossible to think that man wrote what they thought and gave it God's name to make it more powerful. Third the bible was written so long ago is it not possible that God changed His/It's mind. God can create the world but can't control whether people are gay or not? God destroyed cities in the past for being full of evil and yet there are gays all over the world living in nice cities. Come on. You can not claim to know what is right or wrong for others. You can not know their personal connection to God and if you judge them then I believe you are committing sins from your own book, willingly, but maybe you know better than God what is needed here and now. Maybe you understand the bigger picture better than a God that is in control. Allow people to live and believe as they choose just as you would like this same respect. Spread love and light up the world!

NO! Gay marriage is not blessed by God! The wages of sin are death. This lady is not a born again christian. You will be surprised how many people that are left behind when Jesus comes for His people that claim they are "Christians born again" some of which will be ministers. These people that are gay try to cram it down our throats that they are normal and loving the same sex in a sexual way is OK. Makes me upset When the world accepts those kinds but ridicule those who are believers in Christ. We have to pray for them and love them as Jesus would and not be those who judge. If there ways don't change God will get them in the end. Just as we will be before God to be judged as well.

That is such a controversial question. I am Christian and I have to say it is my understanding that homosexual relations are an abomination.That would lead me to believe a gay marriage would be blasphemy in the eyes of GOD as well. I do not believe a church that practiced the ritual of marrying same sex couples would be recognized by GOD either. Having said that, I think what two people do in the privacy of their own home is between them and GOD and not for me to judge. All will have to answer to Him one day and we are not given to know how he will judge these thing as they were not found in the bible. There were no same sex marriages or churches that allowed such for us to have anything to go by. I have my opinion only and it means absolutely nothing before the wisdom of GOD.

There is no such thing as gay marriage. The Bible tells us that a woman was made for a man. God made Adam and Eve, male and female. The Bible also tells us that even nature teaches us so. I understand that some people have gay feelings or tendancies, but they can be resisted. It is the same as the tendancy to lie to get yourself out of trouble. Temptation is real, but with God, we can resist temptation. People who have been with those of the same sex can be forgiven, but they have to confess it as sin and repent. As long as they pretend that it isn't sin, how can they be forgiven?

First the Bible does not approved of gay & gay relationship they are an abomination to God & still is unitl today. Forgiven can only be given if there is true repentance of sin. If one admits of his sins & makes it that he would lead a life away from his former sins then forgiven can be truly achieved. But of course time to time we do sins & we need to always seek God's forgiveness in this case.

Very good question!
From my belief, being gay is unacceptable. God told us that He doesn't want that, specifically that it happen in the nation of Lot. In the stories of the bible where He spoke about the nation of Lot, He precisely said that it is against His intention that people are gay, therefore if He doesn't want a person to be gay, how can He bless them? He also said in the bible that every time gay people get together His Kingdom shakes of anger, it is indeed a serious sin. A gay person also negates the flow of life, meaning, God intended for men and women to get together, to meet and to mate to create populations and generations, homosexuality cannot procreate, it con-creates.

Is like saying that God rewards wrong doings, i t is not recognise in islam. If gay priests are ordained and recognise by the church all these are bound to happen. If care is not taken people will find it difficult to differenciate what is not permissible in the bible and what is really practice in the church.

Well, everything you've said is your own perception. You have a right to that, as closed as it may sound. I thought it also said in the bible to not do God's job of judging others, but there doesn't seem to be a shortage of that going on.
Why don't you meet the lesbian minister and have a calm conversation with her? It could be a positive experience for you and help you understand another person, instead of holding on to this negativity.

Your right. It doesn't make sense. She knows the bible, but did she skip the part where it talked about homosexual behavior? She's not meant to preach the gospel if she is doing the opposite of what it says. It is no different than if a male preacher is cheating on his wife when he knows the bible inside out. That is just wrong on her part.
