Yeah I know it says gay people shall be put to death and by the looks of things it's almost carrying out what it says.

I believe that is in reference to marriage? But it does go on to say that if you "yoked" before you became a believer, not to give up on your spouse but to keep praying and working for their conversion. There are references in the Bible to times when the Children of Israel had to marry unbelievers to keep the tribes alive, and quite often they were able to bring their spouses to God.

Marriage outside of your faiths or beliefs makes you a tolerant person. Refusing to marry anyone other than someone who believes what you believe is a very closed minded attitude. But, to each his/her own! We are all human and free to make our own choices.

It means to walk with believers. We're influenced by our friends, those we love, and the Bible encourages us to socialize and stay with those who believe as we do. I trust the strength of my faith, but it would be a lot harder if my spouse was an atheist. So it's a sound recommendation.

Amen! But we can still use words of love to at the very least try to help them get back on track to God, to heaven. That is what He wants, but yes it not only says that, but it also says don't waste your wisdom of a fool. We are just trying to remind them to find their grace through the glory of God. At least we tried. God l love God!:o]

I am wondering where in the Bible it says that God refuses to answer the prayers of an amputee because apparently he refuses to help them..

Yep....those unbelievers are dangerous. Stay away from them. They may cause you to doubt your mythology and fairy tales.

Correct. It is always best to marry within your own faith. Fewer disagreements.
