both are OT, making it pretty much unrelivate now.
Quote:
"God gave them up to degrading passions. Their women exchanged natural intercourse for unnatural, and in the same way also the men, giving up natural intercourse with women, were consumed with passion for one another. Men committed shameless acts with men and received in their own persons the due penalty for their error" (Rom 1:26-27).
God gave them up to degrading passions. Could i get a definition, please?
"Do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived! Fornicators, idolaters, adulterers, male prostitutes, sodomites, thieves, the greedy, drunkards, revilers, robbers - none of these will inherit the kingdom of God" (1 Cor 6:9-10).
uh that's a pretty big list up there. i take it gay = sodomites?
The condemnation of the law applies for those "who kill their father or mother, for murderers, fornicators, sodomites, slave traders, liars, perjurers" ( 1 Tim 1:9-10).

Are you aware that there is a lot in the Bible that would indicate that Jesus IS God and IS the Holy Spirit? But not all Christians believe in the Trinity I grant you.
totally. The Trinity can be exaspirating to understand. God the Father, God the son (Christ), and the Holy Spirt.
all are one, but can work sepertely. during the OT God the Father acted alone. in the NT Jesus and the HG went to work also.
Christ is basically the lawyer, the Father a judge, the HG a kind of liason or secretary.

Elsewhere on this board is my (now apparently dead) thread on petitionary prayer.
S&G is one of the classic cases/challenges of petitionary prayer.
Abraham seems to think he can (and does) barter with God on how many men must be found to be good in Sodom for it to be saved. It seems that Abraham has to remind God of his moral obligations! Surely this can't be happening! [/B]

sure it could happen and its one of the reason i don't see God as Pure Love, ya know?
but he did bargain, at least.
its all crazy and frightening.
i still feel very, very wrong inside for trying to condemn a gay person. God made them. maybe the Father is to blame for having made what they consider to be a 'flaw'.
