Christians have done a complete turn around concering the Jews so will the Homosexuals be exonerated next ?

Question

“What then shall we Christians do with this damned, rejected race of Jews?
First, their synagogues should be set on fire, and whatever does not burn up should be covered or spread over with dirt so that no one may ever be able to see a cinder or stone of it. And this ought to be done for the honour of God and of Christianity, in order that God may see that we are true Christians.
Secondly, their homes should be likewise broken down and destroyed.
Thirdly, they should be deprived of their prayerbooks and talmuds in which such idolatry, lies, cursing and blasphemy are taught.
Fourthly, their rabbis must be forbidden under threats of death to teach anymore.” – Martin Luther

“If I find a Jew to baptize, I shall lead him to the Elbe bridge, hang a stone around his neck, and push him into the water, baptizing him with the name of Avraham!.. I cannot convert the Jews. Our lord Christ did not succeed in doing so; but I can close their mouths so that there will be nothing for them to do but to lie upon the ground.” – Martin Luther

“I hope I shall never be so stupid as to be circumcised; I would rather cut off the left breast of my Catherine and of all women.” --- Martin Luther

“If we are to remain unsullied by the blasphemy of the Jews and not wish to take part in it, we must be separated from them and they must be driven out of the country.” – Martin Luther

Jesus did not call them Abraham's children, but a "brood of vipers" [Matt. 3:7]. Oh, that was too insulting for the noble blood and race of Israel, and they declared, "He has a demon' [Matt 11:18]. Our Lord also calls them a "brood of vipers"; furthermore in John 8 [:39,44] he states: "If you were Abraham's children ye would do what Abraham did.... You are of your father the devil. It was intolerable to them to hear that they were not Abraham's but the devil's children, nor can they bear to hear this today.------Martin Luther

Learn from this, dear Christian, what you are doing if you permit the blind Jews to mislead you. Then the saying will truly apply, "When a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into the pit" [cf. Luke 6:39]. You cannot learn anything from them except how to misunderstand the divine commandments...------Martin Luther

St. John Chrysostom: “I know that many people hold a high regard for the Jews and consider their way of life worthy of respect at the present time... This is why I am hurrying to pull up this fatal notion by the roots ... A place where a whore stands on display is a whorehouse. What is more, the synagogue is not only a whorehouse and a theater; it is also a den of thieves and a haunt of wild animals ... not the cave of a wild animal merely, but of an unclean wild animal ... When animals are unfit for work, they are marked for slaughter, and this is the very thing which the Jews have experienced. By making themselves unfit for work, they have become ready for slaughter. This is why Christ said: “as for my enemies, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them and slay them before me’ (Luke 19.27).”

Answer 1

One of the reasons I, like most Cthristians, am not Luthern, nor a follower of his teachings.

Answer 2

Technically when they're picturing Jesus on the Cross, He should be naked. The loincloth was added in art later to hide his circumcision - people were always crucified naked to add to the humiliation, and pagans didn't want to know their new god was born a Jew. However, calling Christianity effeminate bolsters the idea that only females have the qualities of peace, mercy and humility, which everyone knows is utter crap. More likely that you are correct that they attack homosexuals solely from their own repressed desire, with little to nothing to do with the fact they 'love Christ.' And besides that, women are more often turned off by violent displays of stereotypical machismo, so if that's actually the plan it's likely that it's backfiring.

Answer 3

This is one reason why I'm Catholic and not Lutheran. Not the only reason, but one reason.

But it's a mistake to attach Luther's anti-Semitism to the whole of Christianity. Please don't lump all of us in with that mentality.

True Christianity has never seen Jews as anything other than a group of people who were privileged to be the first to hear the word of God.

Comparing Judaism to homosexuality in terms of "exoneration" is, no offense, ridiculous. That's because the latter is behavior which is specifically defined as sinful in the Old Testament, a teaching that is backed up and reaffirmed in the New.

Answer 4

I will not respond to the quotations of Martin Luther, as I am not familiar with them. However, your quotation from Luke is out of context. Jesus is telling a parable about a "certain nobleman" and how the nobleman responded in the parable. This is not Jesus telling his followers how he felt about his enemies. If you had read the entire chapter, you should have recognized that. Furthermore, the Bible is filled with admonishments to love your enemies.( ie matthew 5:44 )

Answer 5

I have my own relationship with God, through Jesus Christ. I am not every Christian. So, please do not stereotype.

Also, Luke 19:27 is the end of a parable; a story of someone else. Christ was not speaking of Himself in a literal sense.

However, there is no way to the Father except through Him.

Mr 16:16 "He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned."

Answer 6

No there hasn't been a complete turn around... and could you kindly stop spamming R & S with your hatefilled Martin Luther messages.

Answer 7

Being Jewish was never considered a sin or perversion in the Bible. Homosexual acts are.

Answer 8

Your a freak who needs some major counseling in a nut house facility!

Answer 9

Wait... WTF?
Anyway, I thought Jesus was a Jew. ^_^

Answer 10

wow love what Martin Luther said Smart man!!!!!!!!!!!!!
God is the one who allowed gentile conversion
