See, this is how tired I am and should be snuggled up in my nice warm bed. However, I did make the comment in reference to what you wrote... I guess I thought we had Holy Spirit going on in two threads. I'm going to bed and thanks for the discussion thus far. n.n. #Egg

Heh. Yeah, it was perfectly fit in the context of the thread, it was just a random direction to take it.

Anyway, I'm trying to point out that Jeremiah 31:27-34 remains unfulfilled. There may be other parts in the Bible where it claims that God's law is written in our hearts, but according to Jeremiah 31 it doesn't happen until the new covenant, which includes that clearly unfulfilled v34.

Basically I'm just saying cballard has some beliefs about what the Bible says which are not contained within the Bible. Nothing new in the trend of all the angel debates recently.

Are two sterile guys in a homosexual relationship then not an abomination?
What does their sterility have to do with it?
For some reason I thought lone-traveler was saying that men and women have to be together because then they can have children.


Hmm. Maybe lone-traveler was saying that, but, if so, it implies that a man/woman couple HAS TO have children. Some choose not to. Some are simply unable to.

Lone, we all will be held accountable to God. Let's see what scripture says about Homosexuality. 2 Timothy 3:1-5 says there will be perilous times in the last days. Verse 3 talks about without natural affection (homosexuality). I ask you, who is the god of this world? The devil is very busy right now because he knows his time is short. 1 John talks about anti-christ evil spirits. Do I need to say more?


May God bless, golfjack


I would suggest that you look up the greek definiton for 'without natural affection' instead of assuming it means something it doesn't just because you are personally opposed to that something that you think it does mean. If memory serves me correctly, the correct definition refers to those who have no love for their children. That is the natural affection that is lacking according to the greek definition. I will verify tonight and correct, if need be, tomorrow. Also, the devil does not know if 'his' time is short or not. No one knows when the end will come, so the amount of time is unknown.


I looked up the definition for 'without natural affection' at home and it means to be hard hearted towards kindred. So, this HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HOMOSEXUALITY! It is not enough to just read the bible. One must study it and remember while studying it that although you are reading a bible in the english language, the bible was not originally written in english. So, an english appearing term may not mean what we in our MODERN day and time believe it to usually mean according to OUR culture. The incorrect defining of this term by golfjack makes me wonder what are golfjack's study methods. Concerning this particular issue, what else has golfjack misconstrued or misinterpreted. To anyone who reads this, THINK ABOUT the point I'm trying to make here in regards to simply reading a text or texts in the bible with the natural eye. Study, pray, be open, and admit any wrong misconceptions you may have or may have had previously.

Lev 18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it [is] abomination.

Lev 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall be] upon them.

1Cr 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

1Ti 1:10 For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;

So what is God saying here?

If you will be my people and follow my laws then you won't do this thing. And to him that follows my laws and my ways, then for him it is an abomination to God to do it.

So I suppose if you want to go do your own thang, than by all means knock yourself out. And those who choose to follow God will refrain.

This is what God says....These are his rules and his laws.

decide for yourselves whether you will obey or not.

too bad if i'm not politically correct, but this world's policies are not my priority.

If one chooses to disobey the law, then it shows that one is not sincere in following God with all their heart.

Am I perfect? hell no.
but the things I can follow I will, and the things I have trouble with I pray for help with.
But if I can change something and be more in line with what God tells me is right, then I would not just do it anyways just for rebellious sake.

Some people this will be a test for them, I suppose it will be just as difficult for them to stop doing whatever it is their doing wrong, just as hard as it is for me to stop doing what I know I'm doing wrong.
But it doesn't mean we shouldn't make an effort and try.

This is works, and by faith in God that he will look at our attempts to follow him, he will have mercy on our souls.

You don't just sit back and say I screwed up and somebody else paid the penalty so now I don't have to do anything..I'm free...

That's sick...sick...sick...

You take that gift and stomp on it, mangle it, and rip it to shreds..and you wonder why God is coming with vengeance and wrath...

And not just for this alone, but for all those things that we don't attempt to make better, as an individual and as a whole human race.

why is homosexuality a sin?
Because God said so...
You either believe it or you don't.

Lev 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall be] upon them.

that means your taking your own life in your own hands,and covering yourself in your own blood, and you will be found guilty.

sticking peanut butter in your ears isn't going to change a dam thing.

It is the outward appearance of an inner spiritual truth. And if you can't do that which is obvious and plain, then how do you suppose you will ever be able to do that which is by faith and not by sight....

Exd 15:26 And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I [am] the LORD that healeth thee.

need I say AIDS?

does any deny that AIDS is most commonly transferred through homosexual realationships, not to mention fornication, Adultery....

If you don't play with fire then the chances of getting burned are decreased no?

If you don't give a dam about yourselves at least show some compassion for the babies who are being born into this world with that disease lovingly handed down to them from their parents......

I'm irritable... #evil

you stick with what the world says is good...I'll stick with what God says is good....

Jos 24:15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that [were] on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.

So many things can be said about this text and its context. I will just say that this particular text is OT law and we are no longer under the OT law. If we ever were that is. After all, it was given to the people of Israel. So, what are your thoughts on 2 Timothy 3:1-5? Has your view of those verses changed concering homosexuality? Are those verses in 2Timothy still about homosexuality?

And hey, guess what guys?

It's eliminated in the link in the first post. This was the entire point of the thread. Is it a long read? Sure. Read it anyway.

I still contend that the bible quote specifies that you're not to have anal sex with women.

The text doesn't say you should not lie with men, it says you should not lay with men as you lay with women.

I wouldn't say I'm a dolt, more a radical liberal Smile

If I read the Bible, said to be the inerrant word of God, then I will read it as such.
And when the Bible specifies I'm not to have sex with a man as I am with a woman, this is the conclusion I reach.
Why?
Because we've got the message that we are to have sex with women only in the way where it's possible to concieve, thus we're not to have anal sex with women, as that's reserved to men.

Or are you saying that the Bible encourages anal sex between a man and a woman?

The Bible contains six admonishments to homosexuals...
and 362 admonishments to heterosexuals.
That doesn't mean that God doesn't love heterosexuals.
It's just that they need more supervision.

Thanks. I will print out and read. It may say some of what I've already read befoe. And I've read a lot. Thus, my view that God's view of gay relationships are acceptable. Thanks again.

The line of debate put forward by the person suporting "MODERN" homosexuality, and suggesting homosexuals were punished for NOT displaying HOSPITALITY is quite humourous
Does this arguement logically follow through to modern murder, adultry, pedophilia, robbery, lying, stealing etc.?
If so, nobody has any thing to worry about and we will all go to heaven
I think someone is using reasonably poor logic or some sort of dangerous medicatiion
