We had dinner last night with an older couple - saints who are friends of ours - who have had their share of physical maladies. The sister has had cancer like three times over the past 20 years (she's all good now). She was discussing how she did a gene study and discovered that one little letter in a certain gene was wrong, and this makes someone predisposed to certain types of cancer. It's amazing to me that out of all the billions of "lines of code" in our DNA, that just one little tiny thing out of place causes big issues.
So, we fallen beings, all have these little things out of place that causes things to go sideways. This is why well all need to be renewed. He loves us, sent Christ to heal us, and through Him the new creation will be fully manifest with none of these issues. Hallelujah!  |
Yeah brother Sons to Glory, and gays may be accepted in God's new kingdom ... after all, there won't be marriages.
And don't forget, Gen 6 told of the sons of God -- said to be angels -- coming down to know the young daughters of men (why not daughters of women? -- musta been written by men)? So, like Jesus stated, angels aren't given to marriage, but apparently, that doesn't keep them from being horny. And of course, who could resist gods ... or angels? Those pretty young girls didn't stand a chance against their godly charms.
In the OT gays were to be stoned to death. Why aren't there stories of lesbians in the OT? It's because there weren't none (sic). They were stoned.
Ever wonder why there's so much homophobia in the LC? That's easy. They get it from the Bible. The Bible is a homophobic book ... which means, according to that record, God is a homophobe ... God forbid
Those Leviticus commandments, that Christians love to use against gays, however, doesn't stop the Christian homophobe's from enjoying shrimp and lobster for dinner ... commandments included in the same book that calls men laying with men an abomination. Eating shrimp is an abomination to God. God's a funny arbitrary guy with his commandments and abominations.
So is the local church. But not funny to the gays in the LC ... it's actually painful to them ... not the love Jesus taught and lived. The local church isn't being Christ-like toward them. No surprise there. The LC isn't Christ-like. They're Lee-like.
