Re: The Open Closet

but why though i thought god loved all his children and if you dont act upon those urges you're clearly making an effort to go to heaven and be a "good" christian

God does love all His children, but not all men are children of God. There are men who call Satan their father, and beckon to his call (John 8:44). We can easily know who is a son of God, brother to Christ, and joint-heir to the treasures of Heaven - he who loves Jesus as recognized by his unconditional obedience to the will of the LORD without reservation (John 14:15). Making an effort to go to Heaven isn't of the slightest bit of interest to God (Matthew 21:28-31). Obeying every single command is (James 2:10).

Please make a thread of your own in the "Introductions" section of the forum, so that we can properly greet you. Tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus.

And if you're here to flame us, better take a look at THIS before making an even bigger ass out of yourself.

I will pray that the Holy Spirit enter you and chase the demons out of your rectum and let Jesus fill you with His Grace. If you use your God-given free will to reject Christ and His temporary death on the cross for my sins, then you are sending yourself to hellfire.

Re: The Open Closet

what's worse being gay or being bisexual and if you either of those but have marital sex with the opposite sex are you still a bad person and going to hell?

The first question is a trick one, because it makes a false distinction - as though being a bisexualist is different from being a homer. Anyone can see that a bisexual is also a homer.

The answer to the second question is yes.

Leviticus 18:22, 20:13. Yes, if you have sex with the same gender and never of that horrible sin, you will go to hell.

Being gay or bisexual is a choice you make. A bad choice, but a choice nonetheless. For me it doesn't matter which path you take to hell, I will do all I can to steer you off that path. For me, they are both horrible.

Re: The Open Closet

Australian Olympic swimmer Ian Thorpe has finally come out of his glass closet in an interview with Michael Parkinson after years of denial.



Thorpe (left) was obviously drawn to swimming because he would get to see men in Speedos all day.

Never heard of them.

And if you look at the way his arm around the other man bends at such an angle, that it is possible he was trying to grope the other mans behind!!

Re: The Open Closet

I give up with this website. Religion is about love and tolerance. The bible was written by human beings, prejudice human beings. If your God has 'requirements' for love, and won't allow me to love the people I want to love then what's the point? If heaven is full of you people then I'm glad I'm going to hell. At least I'll have good company.

You keep saying "Religion is about love and tolerance". What gives you the almighty authority to say that? The Bible never says it. This is NOT a debate forum. You were told that when you made your first post. We obey the Bible to the letter. You came in here uninvited and got all worked up over nothing, just accept it! You're sinful and you are going to Hell!

Re: The Open Closet

What I'll never understand is why all theses homofaquals have to flaunt it.

I have always felt a persons choices should be kept private and that to talk about controversial subjects in mixed company is distasteful.

It is bad enough they have to spit in the eyes of Jesus with every sexual eruption but must I have to wipe my chin too?

Re: The Open Closet

well actually, i think the majority of these people are already out and proud. i'm actually quite curious, what have any of these people ever done to offend you? i understand that they are gay or bisexual, but have they ever actually hurt you in any way?

Sorry to burst your bubble, dear friend, but the Mill harm principle is not in the Bible.

did jesus not love everyone? did he not befriend tax collectors, the poor, prostitutes, the minorities?

Jesus is God, and God hates all workers of iniquity:

[Psalm 5:4-5 KJV] 4 For thou [art] not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee. 5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

If you reject the Bible as God's Word, then how do you know what religion is about?

They offend God! Therefore they offend me. These people are abominations! Period it is God's word and is not up for debate. Read you bible and clear your frustrated mind.

Re: The Open Closet

Religion is about love and tolerance.

Which religion?
(None that I've ever heard about).

The bible was written by human beings, prejudice human beings.

On that italicized word, you probably wanted to use the past participle?

Anyway, of course the Bible was written by people. However, every Christian will tell you that the Bible was inspired by God. In fact, it is the only source of what we know about God, His nature, His will, and His plans for us.

If your God has 'requirements' for love,

No.

and won't allow me to love the people I want to love then what's the point?

God wants us to follow His will, not do whatever we want.

If heaven is full of you people then I'm glad I'm going to hell. At least I'll have good company.

I hope you like deep fried pork skin, 'cause the whole Hell will be smelling like it!
