I always laugh when people use the argument that Jesus never says anything about homosexuality. He may have not said the word directly, yet He did say that marriage is between a man and a woman, that eliminates all other options.
Excellent analysis. It's amazing how universally the couple at the concert was condemned. Deep down, everyone knows that there is some universal truth and standard of morality, they just don't want to acknowledge what it really is.
Another well-written commentary on our culture. Many go to great lengths to reinterpret scriptures that condemn homosexuality. Somehow, they think it makes the practice acceptable, if not godly. These scriptures aside, I would challenge these advocates to show where the Bible promotes homosexuality.
I tried to read a book making the case for the Bible being accepting of homosexuality one time. I gave up after the first few chapters just kept making the same argument - "homosexuality was different back then, they weren't talking about what it is now." As you said, no evidence of the Bible promoting it.
I think the Gaines is a bigger issue because they are professing Christians. The Coldplay incident is sad but what do you expect from two Non believers?
🥺😢 to think how much this disheartens Christians who rightful and faithfully fear Our Father and Creator and Saviour and Redeemer....Just stop and think for just one moment how GOD feels about His Lost and Wayward Souls
First of all I agree that Chip and Joanna should not have done this on their show. I agree with the comments below. Jesus never departed from the Torah. God condemned this behavior from the beginnng. One man and one woman! He created them. I have homosexual friends. Am I going to berate their lifestyle? Would it do any good or just make them stay away from me for being condeming? I am not sure how the new Pope views this. I am not a Catholic but I blieve the last Pope was not taking a stand or told everyone to just "love everybody!"
Thats the by- word now............Love! Hey we didn't set the rules. Its not what we do or don't do. Its what God said!

For sure. That's one of those arguments that's only used either dishonestly or ignorantly.

Thanks, and 100%

I agree they should be held to a higher standard, for sure
"So, with this serious departure, questions would be asked." Amen!
Thank you, well written, how could we love them more than by helping them comply with God's word.
