Let's see what God's Word says as it's the final authority and not us.
Heb 13:4 Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge.
Jas 4:4 Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
God also tells us
1Jo 2:15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world--the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life--is not of the Father but is of the world.
17 And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.
Re 22:13 "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last."
14 Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city.
15 But outside are dogs and sorcerers and sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and practices a lie.
16 "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star."
17 And the Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" And let him who hears say, "Come!" And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely.
18 For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book;
19 and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
Since you are a Christian, you know that if you repent, God is able to forgive you see 1 John 1:9.
If you don't, then God will have to do according to His laws and judge you. You are playing with fire and I suggest you repent and get right with God, counseling, and honor your marriage vows to your wife.

Don
I think it might be better for you to spend your pension in more productive ways in which benefit you in the short time you have left. May I suggest that instead of the weekly church gathering to frequent either Hooters or Spearmint Rhino, at least you will get your moneys worth. **** forgot you are gay, best bet then is the local toilets on Sunday when all the gays come out for a bit of fun while the fundies are cooped up in church.

If u r 85 years old it is a pity still u did not realise your mistakes. It is said in the bible , it is against God and God hates the relationship between a man and man and a woman with a woman. When it is against God and u r doing it still how can you say u r a true christian? One who follows God"s commands and realisdes his sins and ask forgiveness only can be a God"s child. Stop thinking about sex and go out and enjoy nature and God"s creations and be happy without a guilt. God will forgive u if u ask Him and change yourself. Behave like a good grand father.Merry chiristmas to you.

No I do not believe you will go to hell, if you have really accepted that Jesus is your Lord and Saviour. You will just have to explain yourself on judgement day. Christians all still sin after becoming Christians, we're just meant to try not to. That is not what He would have wanted. Doesn't it say somewhere in the Bible about the reward we will ge when we get to heaven? If we haven't done everything that we're meant to we just won't get as many rewards. We'll still be in heaven. But you have to ask yourself, if I really did accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour and that He came to earth to die on a cross to take away all our sins, would I be sinning deliberatley? Not saying that if you did that you won't go to heaven because I don't think that there is a clause that God can kick us back out if we don't behave, but is that what He would want?

You say you are a Christian correct. You read your Bible. Do you read the whole Bible and believe all of it? In God's own words you are condemned for what you are doing. You say you go behind your wife's back. Does that not tell you are doing wrong hiding it. Will pray for you to get in right with Jesus.

If you're really looking for answers I wouldnt look to people who may tell you what you wish to hear but Read the bible and ask yourself your questions.
What does the Bible say about Homosexuality...
(Romans 1:24-27)
(1 Timothy 1:9-11)
(Leviticus 20:13) **
These next scriptures tells us who inherit God's kindgdom and who doesnt. (1 corinthians 6:9-11) This should be your answer.

brother brother this is not about acts this is a relationship with our savior and one who knows and loves our savior knows that what you do is sin and unacceptable. If you love our lord and savior then you will live according to his word for to be worthy of his kingdom we must deny ourselves take up the cross and follow him and also know this that not all who say lord lord will enter the kingdom of heaven. we can not make the same mistakes and pronounce all is well for if you accepted his spirit then you will live by the spirit and not the cardinal man.

Yes... If you really sincerely asked JESUS to come into your heart then you would turn away from the gay lifestyle.. JESUS loves you but hates the sin.. Plus GOD is against adultery..
So get totally right with GOD and then you wont go to hell...

Why don't you just repent from your sin? The fact you say you are going behind your wife's back shows you are doing something wrong. Sin is sin when we knowingly do something against God's will for our life. If you are bitter because God has rules that are good for us, then why do you want to claim to be one of His? I think perhaps the King Alcohol, King Sex and King Gamble are your real gods. Don't you?

You know...ONLY God can say who is going to Heaven or hell. It isn't up to us to decide. God looks at the heart. We need to obey the Bible and the laws that He gave us to live. Their are consequences for our sins and one is eternity in hell. God is a forgiving and loving God but we also need to ask for forgiveness and repent which means to turn from your sin and no longer do it. I can't tell you if you are going to hell or not but what I will tell you is that you need to repent and turn from your sin. Ask God to forgive you for your sins and start to follow Him. Read your Bible and pray, go to church and fellowship with other Christians. I've done horrible things in life but I know that God will forgive me and I will/have repented. And just because you give money to God doesn't mean you will go to Heaven. You can't buy eternal life in Heaven, I'm sorry. God wants your heart NOT your money.
