Answer 1

You go girl!!!

Answer 2

All Christians (who say they are) are not christian at all!
Just b/c you sit in a garage all day making noises, that does not make you a car. Being a christian is about an intimate relationship with God; a lifestlye change.
When you lie, you are called a liar, right? a person who steals is a thief, right? Whether you believe it or not these are all lifestyles that oppose God. Everyone thinks that it is ok to lie and steal b/c eveyone assumes that everyone does it and it is used daily; but it is still a sin to do those things! The only reason being a homosexual is attacked so much because it is something that everyone is not into and it is something not commited by everyone. Being gay is the sin, not the person. Genetically, people who are gay are not born that way. It is a physical consequence that usually occurs in childhood and is never handled(physically and spiritually) or it is passed down thru generations. Think about this: when you growing up, you probably said you would never act like one of your parents but eventually you find yourself (good or bad) doing or saying the things they did or said!
Being gay is a sin just like everything else: lying adultery, stealing,etc. and when you make a lifestyle of these sins, it takes you away from God. Of course, you love God who doesn't? But do your actions line up with His Word? The Word of God says that "we have all fallen short of the glory of God" , but once you recognize (thru His Word) that you have sinned, the bible says "He is faithful and just to forgive us"
The Word of God also says that "you will know a tree by the fruit it bears." If you love God as you say you do, do not continue to willingly and knowingly disobey His Word. Confess that you are a sinner, accept Jesus Christ genuinely in your heart and repent.
I love you and God Bless you in your life!!

Answer 3

What I think that you miss is that there are different types of judging. I am a Bisexual Christian. I don't judge people for being Gay or whatever. It's none of my buisness. What I try to do is explain the Bible as I know it, specifically the Gospel, which really has nothing to do with being homosexual, at least from my end.

I have no idea how God will work with someone else, or even myself at times. It might not be homosexuality at all that God wants to work with a specific person on. It is more likely that He would develop their trust in Him. (Trust = Faith)

So THIS Christian has gone to the LGBT section to explain, and I have seen others there that are not trolls that believe the same thing I do. Being Bi myself, I think that I have insight that others might lack.

By the way, I go there many times to rebuke those Fundies. So we are on the same side, though my approach might be different. ( ;

Answer 4

Actually I agree with you.According to the the Christian belief system (which I don't follow) in the bible Jesus said, "You who are without sin, throw the first stone." implying that we cannot condemn people for sinning because we have all sinned.
Jesus also says "Don’t speak evil against each other, my dear brothers and sisters. If you criticize each other and condemn each other, then you are criticizing and condemning God’s law. But you are not a judge who can decide whether the law is right or wrong. Your job is to obey it. God alone, who made the law, can rightly judge among us. He alone has the power to save or to destroy. So what right do you have to condemn your neighbor? ~ James 4:11-12

In my opinion Christians are hypocrites they follow a belief system but do not always abide by it.If they did then they wouldn't judge others on their faiths,sexuality,or lives.Yet they do it all the time and then have the nerve to quote the Bible as though it makes it right.And a great many of them misquote even to suit their thoughts and interpretations of whats written.But no matter what they are hypocrites.I mean after all with all the sexual abuse cases comming out these past 10 years against their OWN priests and drug and homosexuality issues concerning their own priests.What I want to know is where do they get off judging anyone else?

Answer 5

Well, it's a complex issue. But start with some general propositions. First, everyone is a sinner. No one is righteous and we all fall short of the glory of God. No one is worthy of salvation on his or her own terms. So, that places people on a largely equal footing of being fallen wretches one and all.

That being the case whether homosexuality is a sin is irrelevant, what matters is your acceptance of the tenants of Christianity and your attempts to do good.

As for whether homosexuality being a sin, I look at it this way. Homosexuality is not, in and of itself, a sin. Homosexual activity, however, is a sin. However, so is quite a bit of heterosexual activity (premarital, extramarital, coitus interruptus, oral, anal, manual, etc. etc.). Yet, there are, I am sure, quite a few Christians who do all those things.

So, I would approach it this way: If someone accuses you of being a sinner - tell them, yes, of course brother we are all sinners in the eyes of God. If someone says, but the Bible expressly considers homosexual activity an abomination, then direct their attention to the provisions in Romans where Paul talks about ALL the different abominable activities - including heterosexual activities. Remind them that a husband and wife who engage in oral/anal/manual activities are sinning as well, and then ask them if they have "continued to live that lifestyle" despite knowing that it is wrong.

Then you can dovetail the argument into the "let he who is without sin cast the first stone" line of reasoning. It is all about who are they to call you a sinner when they themselves are just as bad. Isn't it wrong to point out the splinters in the eyes of others, when one has a log in one's own? Isn't it a sin to judge other, lest ye be judged?

Live your life the best you can, and seek salvation where you find it. Don't let the judgments of others bother you. They are sinning the sins of pride, hubris, arrogance and conceit when they do that.

Answer 6

Actually it is a sin to be homosexual, and it is wrong to judge. I do not think a Christian should be holding a non-Christian accountable by Gods laws. A Christian should not judge another Christian either. As Christians we are to hold each other accountable, not condemn one another or judge.
I don't have an actual problem with anyone who is gay. I don't agree with that choice but I sin like everyone else. I know that Christ is sufficient in all things. Christ did not just come here to cleans me of my sin but He came so that we may all be forgiven if we accept Him.

Answer 7

Hey Sister, Sorry if people ridicule you for your weaknesses some people dont understand we all have weaknesses and that is what it is..you are not born that way. It is a choice which you choose to make time and time again as is everyones..Some of us are weaker then others in certain things and laws but we are all weak in some way. It is human nature to justify to ourselves what so ever decision we have made.. God did not make you a lesbian any more so then he made me a heterosexual and also God is no Discerner of sins..Sin is Sin..WE have all sinned and come short thats why the saviour is there..The commandments are not to exercise control over us they are merely Guidelines for peace and happiness in ones life and lead to well being.. God doesnt not give commandments to control us or to makes us some way he wants..He has given us choice and made us free to choose the commandments being a guideline of prosperity..Again and im sorry that most dont understand they are as guilty as u are and we are all in the same boat.. but to justify oneself and say u are born that way is to stay in sin and decieve not others but yourself

Answer 8

Sin is relative to Christians. They choose certain sins and deem them 'more' wrong than others, when the bible is pretty clear about every sin being equally abhorrent to God.

Many Christians love to ignore the teachings of Jesus and go on rampages and tirades of judgement, meanwhile racking up sin after sin that will present a great surprise for them when they die and end up in the Hell line......

Some are nice folks though.

Answer 9

Read Ephesians 5:11.

Answer 10

Saying it is a sin is, itself, is a sin, if you believe that making up what's in the bible is a sin.

The few passages that are actually about homosexuality (most of the "clobber passages" are easily demonstrated to be about other things) equate it with being unclean, and equivalent to things like wearing a cotton and rayon shirt.

Christians, in general, just don't know their bible well enough to call anything a sin.

Answer 11

The Bible says it is a sin, but it also COMMANDS SOME judgment:

1Corinthians 5:12 Is it my business to judge those OUTSIDE the church? AREN’T YOU SUPPOSED TO JUDGE THOSE INSIDE THE CHURCH? 13 God will judge those outside. Scripture says, “Get rid of that evil person!”

ALL judgment is NOT sin. It BECOMES a sin if it is done with improper motives.

Notice that this is in the broad context of a passage (6:9-11) which tells that some in the church at Corinth HAD BEEN homosexuals. The immediate context includes a discussion of sexual sins BY A CHRISTIAN. (The previous verse: "But here is what I am writing to you. You must stay away from anyone who CLAIMS TO BE A BELIEVER but who does those things. Stay away from anyone who commits sexual sins or who always wants more and more things. Stay away from a person who worships statues of gods or who tells lies about others. Stay away from anyone who gets drunk or who cheats. Don’t even eat with a person like that.")

Paul here clearly taught the church in Corinth that they should "judge" THEIR OWN MEMBERS in matters of sexual sin. This DOES NOT INCLUDE harassing those that they should be showing the love of Christ and teaching about HIM.

The Bible presumes that no one was "born homosexual" and there is no evidence which contradicts that claim. It also tells us that there were Christians when it was being written who had chosen to leave a homosexual lifestyle.
