We all know the seven deadly sins. Which are Pride, Envy, Anger, Sloth, Greed, Gluttony, and Lust. Why do you insist on taking matters in to your own hands when it comes to gays, lesbians, and transexuals? If they are truely sinners shouldn't you let God be the judge of that?

God is the judge, that is true. What is also true is believers are to spread His word, His truth, to all people. God had much to say on the sin topic of homosexuality. Preaching His word is never judging. We are ALL sinners and we ALL are unworthy of Him. When people come on here and say it is o.k to be gay or they were born that way, you better believe I'm gonna call them out. It is a particularly vile and perverse sin...God is very clear. God is the judge...I will share His truth. I will not be silent.
ps. All sin is deadly.

I don't know where you got your list, but God's list is a little more expansive than that. See Mark 7: 21-23; or Romans 1:18-32; or I Corinthians 6:9-11; or Galatians 5:18-21 or II Timothy 3:1-5)
"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (I John 1:9)
" ...and you shall call his name JESUS, for it is He who will save His people from their sins." (Matthew 1:21)
When you begin to agree with God's assessment of the matter, He will begin to help you. If you value your opinion above the Word of God, nothing in the world can help you.

All people are different. There are more than 7 sins in the Bible. God will be the judge of every single human no matter what we think.

Yes, you are absolutely right. None of us stand in any position to judge anyone else. We are all sinners and none of us are any better than anyone else.
Over the past few years, I have heard so many judgemental statements from "Christians" about homosexuality and it makes me very sad. I think that many Christians have forgotten that when Jesus was on earth, he didn't spend time with the "holy" people. He spent time with tax collectors, lepers, and prostitues. He showed love to people that the rest of society despised and ignored. I think that there's a good lesson to be learned from that...one that we should all try harder to follow.

Are you saying all secular courts should be abolished and their judges disbarred?
Let me guess your answer, lol.
You would answer No, the judges on secular courts can push homosexual "marriage" on the whole nation despite all the votes against it in multiple states.
Are those the kind of judges you like?

I'm not sure how many times this needs to be posted, but here goes:
I don't judge people by their actions - but yes, I am allowed to condemn the action itself.
when was the last time you allowed your child to get away with taking something that didn't belong to him? He may have innocently decided that he wanted something that belonged to his friend, and put it in his pocket. Does that mean you judge him? No - it means you explain to him that his action was not right, and needs to be fixed.

For one thing He gave us His Word. But don't bother yourself about sin. Rather, you might want to develop your relationship with God through Jesus.
