Answer 1

"Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father's house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also." John 14:1-3

"In the last times people who ridicule God will appear. They will follow their own ungodly desires." John 1:18

read 2 Timothy 3:1-5

Answer 2

If you want good stories check out Esther or Jonah or the Book of Acts or the Book of Judges or the stories of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph from Genesis 12 on.

As to God's will for human sexuality, it has been the same since the days of Adam and Eve according to Jesus.

Matthew 19:4 He answered, "Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female, 5 and said, 'Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh'? 6 So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate."

The Apostle Paul lists homosexuality with a number of other sins saying that people who practice a lifestyle characterized by those sins will have no place in God's Kingdom.

1 Corinthians 6:9-11 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, 10 nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.

11 And such WERE some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

Answer 3

Okay, let me make this plain and simple by asking this...what is sin?

Sin is the opposite of God and God's will. Satan is against God so he does the opposite and wants you to do the same.

If you start in the beginning reading in your Bible you will find that God made a woman, Eve, for man, Adam. So tell me, what is the opposite of that - man and woman?

Now, the towns of Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed by God because of homosexuality. When the men (angels) came into town to get Lot and his family out, the towns men wanted them to come outside so they could "know" them. When Lot offered his daughters they did not want them.

This world is coming to an end soon - homosexuality seems to be everywhere.

Answer 4

The Bible says that EveryThing GOD Creates is Good.
satan came up with all of the Evil and Wicked and Sinful Stuff.

We are Alright untill GOD sends us down here to be Born. Then we get messed up, some more that others, in all kinds of ways.

Blame satan.
Not GOD.

Ditto.......look up What So Ever---they can be Saved to, GOD Loves What So Ever's
Jesus Died for them.

Answer 5

Romans chapter 1.

Answer 6

Jesus is the only Philosopher who gave the Kingdom to the fools. Jesus forgave sins and forgave the man who was dieing and could do no more deeds. I propose that Christianity is the way because it is preposterous!!! :D (that isn't a joke. seriously.)
Here are verses... (under sources)

11"Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. 12Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
