The source of their health wreckage, when you use something in a way it wasn't designed for, bad things happen. See https://www.catholiceducation.org/en/marriage-and-family/sexuality/the-health-risks-of-gay-sex.html It's almost as if God knew what He was talking about. Most biblical prohibitions are God saying, "Don't hurt yourself".
I know some people are born with homosexual tendencies.. I was born with heterosexual tendencies.. however it is a sin, and for good reasons, for me to bang every willing female I encounter. Homosexual sex is an abomination in the Eyes of the Lord.. and also for good reasons. That said.. confused and impressionable children can be and are recruited to homosexual sex.. afterall, in these modern times it's just a matter of how you obtain friction.
Funny how the gays used to protest what went on in the bedroom, to be in our faces with their abomination. Ask most people what the percentage of homosexuals are in a population and they will guess 20 to 40% (and it may well be in Hollywood and San Francisco!). Most people are way off in their guess.
it's 2 to 5% of the population.. and transgender it so small as to be a rounding error, tho' the decadence and promotion of trans in these modern times may be changing that. This insanity is as old as human civilization.
anecdote . my stepdaughter , after a failed marriage (she walked in on hubbie and her friend that was staying with them), and a few more failed hetero relationships, decided to try batting for the otherside.. she found that the same problems as in her hetero relationships arose. Fortunately she found a man, a real man, that just adores her, and they have given us two beautiful grandchildren (and she attends a Bible church every Sunday!) I praise the Lord, the Creator, everyday for all the Blessings He has bestowed, everything I have, everything I am .. is His.
Excellent, PTL! As the Bible says about some who were formerly homosexuals, "And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God." I Cor. 6:11
Not perfect for those who came before and therefore did not hear the message Not perfect for accurately recording what jesus said Not perfect for those who did not live in the area to hear jesus message
I gotta say....thanking god for a regulation that only restricts killing you slave seem laughable....
It has been estimated 90%+ of everyone who has ever lived, came AD after Jesus. Some in the BC era were saved through faith, as it says in the OT. Quite accurate enough to grasp the Gospel of salvation, millions have done so by reading the Bible. Hence the Great Commission. God doesn't OWE any of us sinners anything. You do know the Gospel, what are you going to do with it?
Not for the folks in Sodom and Gomorrah. If they are, why are 67% of new AIDS cases with gay males? Not to mention MANY other STDs they get at a high rate.
And note there was no genocide against the Cannanites, there were always some around. God warned Israel if they turned against him and did as the pagans did he would punish them the same way. That happened in the Babylonian exile.
Christianity isn't works-based like false religions. The Bible says ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of God. It is accepting His free offer of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ.
Fortunately that does not apply, whew! So i guess lesbian relationships... and gay relationships before aids are ok?
Joshua has been praised through ages of Christianity and blessed by god for slaughtering every man, woman, child and animal of Jericho at a time when cities had rule over territory - thus stealing their land. So, Joshua failed at killing ALL Cannanites, so you claim it wasn't genocide! And, his act of pure terrorism caused other cities to concede their land to Joshua without war in this early example of ethnic cleansing. Do you believe that today god is happy with genocide, terrorism and ethnic cleansing?
You mean like we did at Hiroshima and Nagasaki? A more accurate meaning was that the pagan nations were driven from the land.
I think you're confused about the Biblical story of Jericho. Joshua wanted their land. He slaughtered them and took their land as well as that of other cities. And, he did so with God's approval. That is not what happened in Japan. If you want to discuss that event, start a thread and I'll be there.
As far as the Canaanites, they were told to flee the land, only those left behind who disobeyed were slaughtered. I bet more were killed at Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and Dresden.
