The Bible is very clear about such things, yet some "Christian" churches have taken on liberal feminist attitudes with a blatant disregard for the Word. Is it the blind leading the blind? Or wolves in sheep's clothing? Or both?

If your child was doing something wrong, shouldn't you teach them this? If your sheep was in danger, shouldn't you shepard them from danger? Isn't a pastor's job to teach what is good and right in the eyes of God? Or is it to make sure everyone feels yummy when they leave church each week?

I feel sorry for any Pastor, or 'Christian' who doesn't speak the truth about God's Holy Word.....Even when it hurts, the truth should be told...

Homosexuality is a sin just like fornication, adultery, killing or any sin that is against God. What's there not to understand people? Stop with all this nonsense!! "the bible said this and that." The bible is a guide for human life and the spiritual. One thing that people don’t say much is what happens to you after you die. This is a serious issue!! as a follower of God this world is not your final destination. Sin will never have no place in God’s presents. Yes no one should be judging or condemning that's God's call. But as followers of Jesus we do have the responsibility to stand up for the truth. Sin is dirty and deadly and there are consequences for that.

What Church is this? Is it a Gay Christian Church, I have seen those, and Gay minister's as well. They are self ordained. But that does not have an effect on me or you does it?
We don't go there. And at least they believe in a G-D and if you say Christian then it is shared by us as Jesus the Lord son of God . That is in Jesus's court now, not ours. We cannot judge them you can only judge yourself, and what you do in life. Remember Judge not lest ye be Judged. There are many things worse than that in the bible and I think one thing is as bad as another. there is no better or worse by number in the commandments they are all equal sins. And what about pedifilers? And how about lying politicians that put us all in poverty and hurt millions upon millions by wars. What about those Atheists? The ones that are politically trying to manipulate our society into war against religions and stradegically working to plan the demise of a democratic government as well? Arent they worse or are they equal? I don't know but they all seem pretty nasty to me.Good luck Happy New Year I do know personally a gay father that raised his child on his own to be a wonderful College Graduate and a psychologist right now, and no the guy did not become gay, and the boys mother was a horrible woman and abandoned her own son. Then there is another one that raised two retarded boys and no they are not defiled sexually at all. They were abandoned in a back seat of a car in diapers while their mother was running around prostituting herself for drugs and food. Terrible Huh? So I can't say anything but good about those people because their sexuality did not get into the way of their priorities in life. So I guess it is a balance.

The Bible is abundantly clear on many issues. The main point is unconditional love. That means not judging. Not condemning is not the same as approving. To tackle such topics in a general service is inappropriate. We are to love the sinners not the sin. The best thing to do is live as close to Jesus' example as we can and He NEVER condemned a person- only their practice and they were readily forgiven. The examples we set, the behaviour we show, the questions we ask - are the true witness to His love. The Bible lays it out plain and simple- it is between them and God. There are better ways to spend your energies. God bless. Love you!

yes the churches of christianity have breaken off into many sects. All these sects having little disagreements with eachother. So actually, alot less than the total amount of christains get into heaven.
Llike that church in COlorado(could be wrong) that believe their version of christianity is the correct one and every one else is going to hell for not apropriately believing in god. (These are the people that thank god for 911 and soldiers deaths ect)..
mind the church consists of only family and its only 80 members hahah..
also, as im sure you and many other christains would agree. The bible is not as litteral as it is often interpreted. IF it was that litteral it would be full of contridictions. Thats why churches often disagree on the interpretaions of some verses.

You're right, and there are two scriptures that concern such hypocrisy.
Matthew 13, the parable about the weeds.
1st Corinthians 5, in short, do not even be found eating with immoral or blatantly hypocritical Christians.

First of all...to condemn....who are you to condemn anyone. Live by the book and love by the book. Judgment is not up to you buddy, there is a much higher power for that. Live and let live. Second, why is this a feminist attitude? You need to get it together. Stop hating and start being a christian. Follow the bible and stop trying to put yourself in the position of judge and jury.

Religion should not be about condeming ie judging other people. (only God can judge, remember?) So I think it's good for churches to not condemn people. WE ARE NOT PERFECT! So why rub it in our faces? Noone needs that. What people do is up to them, churches should just be there to remind you of what is right. Not tell you what you must do. Be thankful that people have places to worship with out being put down.
And since none of us are perfect, yes it is the blind leading the blind (what other possibilities are there, since noone is with out sin?), and I think we are doing a very good job.

It's not our job to condemn people...let God be the judge. It is our job to show love to everyone. Did Jesus spit words of hostility and hatred to the tax collector or the prostitute? No..he showed love but also guidance. That is the approach to take...show love and point them in the right direction.

That's what is called being "Liberal". Not standing or staying on one side or the other, (sometimes just avoiding) to appear good to both sides of an issue."A church for everybody", sounds better then it really is.
