If God gives us guidance and free will, why did he harden Pharaoh's heart and then punish him for it in Exodus?

Re: Top Ten Reasons Why GAY MARRIAGE is WRONG!
Friend, you have it all so wrong.Originally posted by Ball So Hard View PostJephthah offered the first thing that came out of his door to greet him, presumably thinking that he'd be offering a sheep or goat or something of much less value. He never explicitly offered his daughter and he certainly wasn't happy with the arrangement when she came out of the house. But God could have said; 'Nah, you're alright mate' - after all, causing a load of guys to be slaughtered shouldn't be too difficult a task for an omnipotent being.
My point is that perhaps God wasn't in the best of moods so he lost his cool and declared homosexuals an abomination, then never bothered to correct it later
God offers guidance. He enabled us with Free Will. It is up to us to make use of His Magnificent Gifts(r).
You people always try to find hidden meaning, deep interpretation of what you THINK He said. God and the Bible is not like that. If He were, he would of had notes added to the book jacket like Stephen King does.
No, God make the Bible simple and plain.
 But if you want to change His word and intent, please, feel free to do so. Just know that doing so will deposit you in Hell. Do not say you were not provided information that could Save your Soul.

Jephthah offered to show his devotion and love to the LORD by giving back his most valuable treasure. It's one of the reasons he is a hero of the faith.

But this doesn't have anything to do with the idea that God didn't really mean what He says in His Holy Word.

You seem to be under the impression that when the LORD declares someone an abomination, He actually doesn't find them an abomination. I'm curious as to how you've come to this conclusion. Is there some verse in the Holy Bible that reads, "Please disregard anything that doesn't apply to current social moral standards of whatever century and culture in which the individual is reading, should such an interpretation make them uncomfortable"?

Re: Top Ten Reasons Why GAY MARRIAGE is WRONG!
Now I know you'll be warbling "definitions" and stuff which I will be ignoring. I have no interest whatsoever in your definition of "gay" or "homosexual" or "perverts" because in this context what you need is the NAZI definitionOriginally posted by Ball So Hard View PostI challenge you to show me one shred of reliable evidence that Hitler supported gay marriage.
-- The "butch" gays of Nazism did not consider themselves to be really homosexuals, but a superior kind of true men or uber-man. Another writer who firmed up the Nazi mindset considerably was the homosexual Friedrich Nietzsche. He was a rather disgusting creep with an over-long mustache who hated Christianity and spoke of the "superman."

Catlicks are well known for their homersexualizer tendencies. Why do you think he was a catlick?Originally posted by Ball So Hard View Post...and I see scripture used in only one of the reasons why gay marriage is wrong (which it isn't). So we should conclude that the Rev. Jim Osborne is wrong about the other nine, yes?

Friend, God does not condone queers. Plain and simple. No hidden agenda, no secret plot. Face it, you made a bad choice to be queer. But you can change, if you want to. LBC has many programs for fairies like you to convert to be normal people. Image what it would be like to be a True Christian(tm). Contact a Pastor for an information Pak.

7)Umm...where is this one? Argument No.7 disproved.
8)Please hand me the statistics that prove this. I'm sorry, but not every guy in a marriage is secretly Gay.

Re: Top Ten Reasons Why GAY MARRIAGE is WRONG!
Well then I guess it's a good thing humans aren't timber, and aren't bent, not matter their sexual preferenceOriginally posted by MitzaLizalor View PostI will confess I only used railway lines because it was taking too long to find pictures of warped (or bent or curved) timber, but the principle is the same. We cannot build secure houses with warped timber and neither can we be temples of the Holy Spirit if we are warped (or bent).
 
Perverted is another variant of not straight, especially in archery. God has explained what to do and what not to do. Following His Commandments is what Christians (only) do.
Synonyms of not straight: agee, anfractuous, angular, asymmetric, awry, bowed, catawampus, circuitous, cockeyed, contorted, crippled, curved, curving, deformed, deviating, devious, disfigured, distorted, errant, gnarled, hooked, incurving, indirect, irregular, kinky, knurly, lopsided, meandering, misshapen, not straight , oblique, out of shape, rambling, roundabout, screwy, serpentine, sinuous, skewed, slanted, snaky, spiral, tilted, topsy-turvy, tortile, tortuous, twisted, twisting, uneven, warped, winding, zigzag
Perverted? Mm.. nope.
Some people don't use their bodies as "entertainment", but rather as a promise. Yes, some do use their bodies as entertainment, but if you think it's only gay people, then you must be blind. And nowadays, gay people don't either shoot themselves or disappear. They're fine with the way they are, and most straight people are, too.Not following what God has commanded is what perverts do. They are corrupt and abominable. Using your body as "entertainment" is not included in God's DO list. Why, you might as well visit Africa and "go native" but if you woke up one morning and there was a loaded revolver by your camp bed you'd know what was expected. Disappear, or shoot yourself. That was the message then and although most degenerates did disappear a surprising number shot themselves too once they recognised that they had not just disgraced themselves and their families but the English nation too. There were French in Africa as well of course, but they don't have a word for disgrace.
Excuse me; as many have told me, you're wrong. Discussion about why heterosexual people are referred to as straight:Bending or corrupting God's Just Law is much worse that that. And the consequences are worse too. The reason why just and moral humans are described as straight is because we have not been warped or corrupted. We do not bend God's Word to suit ourselves (indeed, I don't know why those broken reeds even bother to pretend: they're not fooling anyone). Go back 100 years, was "straight" used other than to indicate...
"I think it refers to 'the straight and narrow.' It was also used by stoners and druggies to refer to non-users. It's a term that the outsiders (gays and stoners) applied to the 'insiders' to differentiate themselves from them. It was picked up by the straight community to refer to their own sexuality after gay people called them that."
Many people agree with this statement. It's slang; it doesn't have to do with angles or lines or anything.
God never wrote, nor said, what you have written in those bullet points.God's assessment. Not mine.
I don't know if you actually know what my assessment is. But something tells me you don't really care.(We already know what your assessment is, there's no point repeating it.)
I suppose my "whining" is a bit emotional, but I think all of your guys' is too. That's what makes it interesting, yeah? And I'm only responding to you guys. I'm sorry if it's annoying.Originally posted by Pastor Ezekiel View PostWhat on earth are you yammering about, boy? This is a Christian forum. Go do your emo whine somewhere else.

Re: Top Ten Reasons Why GAY MARRIAGE is WRONG!
What on earth are you yammering about, boy? This is a Christian forum. Go do your emo whine somewhere else.Originally posted by Brendon P. View PostYou seem to have misunderstood me. When I say straight, as in the sexual orientation, I don't mean a line or an angle or anything of the sort. All I mean is heterosexual. It's a very common term used for that.
Your comparison is right, in a way. Except, you see, people nowadays don't only live life to procreate. We live to have fun, to have memorable experiences, to do things. Yes, gay people aren't able to use their bodies to procreate, but here, now, in 2013, some straight couples don't even have kids - needless to say, it doesn't really matter anymore. The world is overpopulated, anyway.
But you've mentioned that the opposite of straight it warped. No, my friend, the opposite of straight is curved or bended. The opposite of warped, however, is perfect, and no human being is perfect.
And although you've used a lovely metaphor, and I do applaud you for creativity, we are not train tracks. We do not have one purpose, we have many. Thus, your comparison is flawed.
