If the person is your christian brother or christian sister, then you can offer loving advice in private and tell them to pray about it.......because the Holy Spirit will let them know if they are in error or not, which is a very personal thing. The Holy Spirit is the guide here, not man.

But, this is not what we are doing here. This is not a private conversation between 2 christians, this is a debate in public including people of all faiths. This is not appropriate, nor helpful to others reading who may or may not be struggling with their own sexual tendencies and or their own relationship with God. This kind of thing only serves to push them farther and farther away from the Lord because they believe they are not loved or welcomed into the Kingdom of God, which is a horrible thing to do.

Lisa, I understand that you feel compassion for those who are struggling with their sexuality, and your loving heart is something truly special and God given. However, there comes a time when a line must be drawn, where the gray area ends and you have to make a choice. You can coddle someone only so long before they become dependent upon it, and then all you have done is enabled their iniquitous behavior.

Ok, a line has to be drawn. Who draws it and where is it drawn?

Is your sin ok and others sin is not ok?

When you truly, and I mean all christians, understand how wretched and evil we all really are deep down inside, you wouldn't point the finger at another for the rest of your life.

You are wicked and evil, so am I. Are you a tiny bit less evil then the homosexual? Perhaps...but it doesn't change the fact that you're still evil too and without Jesus you would go straight to hell....and so would I.

It's like 2 kids. One vomited on himself and the other crapped his pants. Which one is more dirty? They are both filthy, yet the one who vomited points at the other one and says "eww....gross".
 Quoting: Lisa*Lisa


Lisa, you are absolutely right and it is not up to us to be the judge and jury - we can only help each other walk the narrow and difficult path necessary to reach God's Kingdom. The question then arises - who has put this issue in the limelight and has demanded validation? It was not the Christian community that brought this up, it was those seeking approval and acceptance of their sinful ways.
