Christian denominations that are "inclusive" of LGBT will die...

[BULLDOG]

...because it is not possible to say that homosexuality/transgenderism is not a sin and remain true to the Gospels.

Bigotry in Christian vestments is still bigotry.

That's your answer, to label people you disagree with, instead of trying to understand what they say.

Don't really care what you might say, other than what little entertainment value you offer.

He added while casting the first stone.

At the end of the story, Jesus told the adulterous woman to commit this sin no more.

He didn't tell her, hey, adultery is fine by me, keep it up.

What did Jesus say about divorce? You love to focus on the sins of others while ignoring those that hit close to home. Get your own roof under under.

I did not cause my divorce, so the sin is not mine.

Takes two to make it and two to break it...….being blind to your own responsibilities doesn't mean you're not responsible in some way

Sorry, but wrong. Modern "no fault" divorce laws don't require permission of the non-divorcing spouse. You're approximately 50 years obsolete on your knowledge of divorce law. Try opening a book chump.

Make that chumpette……..and my comment had nothing to do with the law.

...because it is not possible to say that homosexuality/transgenderism is not a sin and remain true to the Gospels.

Such is the bigotry and hate common to far too many Christians.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

While it is true that according to the Bible homosexuality is a sin...……….it also says to judge not, lest ye be judged.

That don't fly, the whole point of religion is to tell you the difference between right and wrong.

A Christian denomination that is "inclusive" of a group of people who are openly practicing sin, and not repenting for it, has no future.

Far too often the point of religion is to compel conformity and punish dissent – religious dogma is used to ‘justify’ ignorance, fear, bigotry, and hate, such as Christians’ unwarranted fear and hatred of gay and transgender Americans.

Your side is the hateful one, forcing people to bake cakes your your goddamn weddings.

 

[Lysistrata]

Even if the theories that the bible is inerrant and infallible and somehow written by the Supreme Being would be correct, there are lots of things in the "Old Testament" besides any LGBT issues, some of which have to do with sex and reproduction and some of which have to do with other issues. In the OT, there is maybe one line that has to do with gays. In the "New Testament," there is only the word of Saul/Paul, as Jesus never said a word about the subject, but said a lot on other subjects. There is no basis for singling out LGBTs for ill treatment.

No ill treatment, only a request to repent, and sin no more.

Adulterers and thieves get the exact same treatment.

BS. No one needs to "repent" of being something they are intrinsically. This anti-gay stuff is a pile of crap, stemming only from tribal ritual and male insecurity. It has nothing to do with religion or a Supreme Being.

Oh? How so? Where is homosexuality/transgenderism talked about as a sin in the Gospels? (Tho I know divorce and remarriage is mentioned as adultery and a sin)

I did not cause my divorce, so the sin is not mine.

Oh really? Totally faultless? It just POOF! happened?

It's odd how such so-called christians can have time to hate on muslims, etc. because they are spending so much time hating on other christians in different sects....European history is FULL of instances of religious wars and massacres over the christian religion.

You voted for an adulterer and thief to fill the Office of the Presidency.

With the context Christ clearly states to judge not by appearances and then commanded us to judge righteous judgments
