    Discuss how homosexuals twist and deny Scripture. The thread I was banned from is classic. Matthew 19 is clearly speaking of divorce and marriage, yet you and another poster deny it. Scriptures are very clear that Biblical marriage is male and female.

    I don't twist or deny it, I simply interpret it differently than you. As do many people hence thousands of denominations of Christianity.

    I was saying it doesn't expressly forbid same sex marriage. It doesn't. The best you can say is that it forbids same sex marriage through omission. That I disagree with.

    There was no such thing as same-sex marriage. Homosexuslity was condemned by the law, and Jews were living under Moses law when Jesus said this. Jesus never condoned homosexuality. It's not up to interpretation. It's up to believing the Scriptures or not believing the scriptures. Many people call themselves Christians and don't believe the Scriptures. There are false churches. Scriptures speak of false churches.

    Yes there is. I'm in one and it's legally a marriage
    I disagree. Homosexuality was never condemned by the law and Jesus never condemned it, and all language written is up for interpretation.
    Scripture isn't God. Scripture is fallible and alterable.

    It isn't required that you believe the scriptures by Christ.

    I said there was no such thing as same-sex marriage when Jesus walked the earth. It is also a fact that the law condemned homosexuality as well as the New testament in Romans first chapter and First Corinthians chapter six. Do you still deny that? Here are the scriptures, and they are the Word of God, that's what Christians believe.

    It is required that a person believe Scripture to be a Christian. Jesus said so.

    No you didn't. You said "There was no such thing as same-sex marriage." But okay I get what you ment.

    Yes, it says no such thing.
    Well it isn't necessary to believe the scriptures ate the word of God. I don't and I'm christian.


    Further the original scripture never mentioned homosexuals that word didn't excuse until the late 19th century.

    Leviticus is talking about the use of temple prostitutes not monogamous same sex couples.

    No it isn't, and the scripture said Jesus said so.

    Nope. You're not a Christian if you deny Scripture. You're deceived. Jesus was very clear.

    Yes I am. Further I only deny they are the infallible word of God. Clearly they're fallible.

    When did you talk to him?

    I have his word in my Bible, which you deny. You're typical of many homosexuals, no offense. You claim you believe, yet you don't believe.

    No you don't. You have a collecting of Jewish greek and Samaritan words that have been hand selected by a council appointed by Constantine 300 years after the death of Jesus out of thousands of other stories. The bible is the word of the Nicene council.

    I don't believe what I'm told to, no. I believe what I have come to know through first seeking Christ. I absolutely believe in Jesus. However Jesus isn't the bible.

    Jesus of Nazareth, son of the heavenly Father.

    My faith is based on my personal relationship with Christ. Not a book.

    So you admit you hear voices. How do you know it's the Lord? Does the voice tell you what you want to hear?

    No, not that I hear voices, that I hear the Lord's voice. I know it's the lord's voice because a bad tree cannot produce good fruit.

    I have only heard his voice once. What he said brought me peace, courage, strength, and hope.

    Okay. Do you believe there is sin that God judges and Jesus cleanses us from with his blood?
