Christians, who's more likely to be accepted in Heaven by God, Moral Atheists or Gay/Lesbian Christians?

Question

And please, explain the reasons for your answer...

Answer 1

This should be interesting.....


Psychic guess....

"there are no Gay/Lesbian 'true' Christians, so neither.

God wants to fry them all"

Not my belief system...just a guess at the answers to come which turned out to be prophetic.

Looks like I am playing the lotto tonight.

Answer 2

This one is easy. Gay and Lesbian Christians will be in heaven with every one else who is saved. Yes, being gay/lesbian is a sin in the eyes of God. But no more then lieing, steeling or any other sin. ALL sin is equally abhorrent in the eyes of the lord.

If people say a christian will not go to heaven due to being gay then they had better look at their own lives. Everyone sins. Judge not lest ye be judged as well. Or Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.

By the way. I am not gay. I have a wife, an ex-wife and six kids. I just read the bible.

Answer 3

I think Gay/Lesbian Christians because atheists fail the criteria for entry into Heaven and Gay and Lesbian Christians simply have to admit their sin and repent.

Answer 4

Silly question. Homosexuality is the same sin as sleeping with someone out of wedlock, and I think there are very few christians who have not committed this.
Anyone is allowed to receive the gift of Jesus. If you die an athiest you will not be allowed in heaven.
If you are Gay or Lesbian, and have repented for any sins you have committed then you will get into heaven.
Its not so complicated.

Answer 5

Obviously the Gay / Lesbian Christians, because they are, after all, Christians. True followers of Jesus the Christ know that being gay isn't a sin, it is simply the way some people are created. Atheists, on the other hand, have made a considered choice to reject God.

This is my opinion, but thankfully it's not my decision to make. God, and God alone, will choose who is allowed into heaven, and I suspect God's criteria are much "looser" than most humans' would be.


Edit to Obsidian: no, it doesn't. You interpret it that way, but that doesn't make it so. My faith is in Christ, not in your interpretation of scripture.

Answer 6

Neither. First off, there are no such people as 'Christian gay/lesbians' because homosexuality is an abomination to God. It's mentioned in several places in the bible - Romans 1:22-32 for one, plus the story of Sodom and Gomorrah (Titus mentions the result of their sin and immoral lifestyles). God is against homosexuality and so, unless a homosexual repents to God of his/her sin and turns to Christ for salvation, they will not enter the kingdom of heaven as the bible says. Homosexuals want to please themselves and live a sinful, immoral life, yet they want to follow God as well; doing what they wanna do, but at the same time, please God - can't serve both God and man as the bible also says. You either abide by God's word and live a straight, Christian, moral life or you do what you want and what the world says is ok and please yourself - can't do both.

Secondly, NO atheist will go to heaven either. How can they if they deny God and His existence? Why would God allow someone that does not even believe in Him and His existence to enter heaven? Answer: it won't happen and never will. God will not welcome such people into His kingdom. Just read the bible and you'll know that I speak the truth.

Answer 7

Gay'Lesbian Christians, but I should let you know that if someone "becomes" a Christian, they are not to continue in the same sins they had before. Christ comes into their heart and convicts them of sin, and sin is the transgression of the Law, which is the 10 Commandments. The 7th commandment states, "Thou shalt not commit adultery." Homosexuality is just one of dozens of behaviors considered to be "adultery". How can God forgive someone for a sin that that person refuses to abstain from, or be forgiven for?

Rom 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:


Rom 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.


Rom 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;


Rom 1:29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,


Rom 1:30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,


Rom 1:31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:


Rom 1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

Answer 8

That would depend on the person, and their actions throughout life. I beleive that we are judged by the worth of our deeds and beliefs, our actions speak louder than anything. Our personal beliefs are our own. If Jesus turned out to be a bi-sexual, would you love him any less for what he did for you?

I'm not saying he is, just hypotheticly......some people don't know what that word really means, wiki it.

Edit: Stranger in the Night-You do realize that the Bible says that God despises homosexuality right? You seem a little confused on that, just thought I would throw that in.

Yes, it does: Leviticus 18:22- 22-"Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination."

Leviticus 20:13-"If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them."

Answer 9

An atheist has no moral standard apart from that which he or she invents. If you invent the rules of your own game, how can you lose unless you're an idiot? Everyone thinks themselves to be basically good, even criminals plotting their next crime.

Answer 10

I would say Gay/Lesbian Christians are more likely, because we are all sinners. They are accepted into Heaven by their faith, not by their works.
