I understand in Romans it talks about how homo sapien is an old evolution and by being saved or progressive the new people in christ can not live as the old humans do

yes, busted
of course I meant homosexual
interesting to see when others presume
but if we do what comes natural, why blame a creator if we are in same image or likeness?
you can't have a cake and eat it too...or can you?
explain the limits of love and relation and I'll allow loving others to be a crime, or showing affection suddenly becomes taboo and wrong

Ephesians 4:22,24 talks about putting off 'the old way of life' (or old self, or the old man) and start 'living a new way of life'. When you become a Christian your spirit, dead in trespass and sins (Ephesians 2:1) is replaced by the Holy Spirit and you become a new creation (2 Corinthians 5:17). However from then on your soul (mind emotions and will) are being transformed by the presence of the Holy Spirit, into someone who is Christ-like

God never permitted homophobia. He spoke against it from genesis to revelations. You understand in Romans?But what you say and believe is not true. Stop looking for and excuse. God said all men will not understand the word of God. God is not concerned with what the religion says. What does he say? Homosexuality has not changed it is not old and it is not new. God's people will not live as the world does. The spirit of God confirms that. Like Paul said in Philippians chapter 3. Forgetting the things behind(past experiences) counting all he knew as dung. For the pleasure of knowing who Christ is and the power that lifted him up from the grave. He just wanted to know Christ crucified. Who cares about sex. Just like life that will end. Christ and his word will never end. Oh,how I love him and need him! Praise him for his unfailing love towards us! Excuse me,I am having my moment!

Becoming a "new creature" in Christ, means that Christ transforms us, spiritually, through the power of the Holy Spirit. It doesn't mean we never make mistakes, but we begin to desire God's will, and strive to follow Him, once we receive the Holy Spirit. Go get a Christian Bible and read through it. About homosexuality, there are many parts of the Bible that make it clear that God created woman to be with man, and that homosexuality is considered a corruption of God's design. Jesus taught us to turn away from temptation, so even if you want it, you're still supposed to turn away from it, and obey God by doing His will, not your own.

I just read Romans today and I dont recall the Bible ever mentioning homo sapien, given that I think that classification was done far after the Bible was written.

That's true. In Christ, we cannot continue to live by our old ways. We have to change. Of course, we can no more change ourselves than we can begin evolution. Only God can change human nature. The old one is pretty sappy anyway.

Um "homosapien" means "human" as a whole. So that would meke every person that ever lived wrong. It makes no sense.
