Sin is sin...I don't know, is there anything else called an "abomination in the eyes of God" in the bible? I'd have to go look it up, and my computer is havin' a nervous breakdown.
Crossdressing is an abomination unto God, though not necessarily an abomination in his eyes.

Gay Christian is a contradiction, let along gay Christian priest

Somehow I doubt that's the attitude God would have us display. Pray for them instead. You'd be amazed at what the fervent prayer will accomplish through Christ.

 Grin  "judgment and wrath He poored out on Sodom, Mercy and grace he gave us at the cross, I hope that we have not too quickly forgotten that our God is an awesome God."

All you Rich Mullins fans out there--the thing Rich  complained about was folks quoting his songs instead of scriptures   . . .but I couldn't help it.   Grin

Hey how about all those pastors that interpret the scriptures to enforce the curse, "your desire will be toward your husband and he will rule over you" instead of understanding that in the beginning it wasn't God's will for anyone to rule over each other, but their desire be toward the Lord?Huh

If "Sin is Sin" like people try to say, then those pastors that preach "The Curse" is God's way and it's natural and right, are just as ungodly as the gay pastors interpreting the scriptures so they can say that their own homosexual lifestyle is natural and right--justify their own sinful desires--desires to RULE OVER someone in the case of all the pastors that preach that "The Curse" is God's way--aren't any better than pastors that preach whatever they want to justify.  The thing is IT FEELS RIGHT in THEIR OWN EYES they find scriptures to justify their actions and guilt other people into doing the same or at least accepting what they do.

A righteous person once wrote:  "I am a Christian because I have seen the love of God LIVED OUT in the lives of people WHO KNOW HIM.  The Word has become flesh and I have encountered God in the people who have manifested (in many "unreasonable" ways) His presense--a presence that is more than convincing--it is a presence that is compellling.  I am a Christian, not because someone explained the nuts and bolts of Christianity to me, but because there were people who were willing to BE the nuts and bolts.  Through their obedience to the truth and not necessarily through their explanation of it, they held it together so that I could experience it and be compelled to obey."

There will always be preachers out there preaching this and that.  But folks learn about God through how we behave.

Now now, We are Not to Judge anyone!  Pray for them, Love them, help them Know Jesus.  After all, He (Jesus) is the Only Way Truth and Life.

Calling Names can hurt people, so please watch how you use them. People that think calling People Names don't hurt, Need to Check themselves with God once again, and See His Love for Everyone, that's Why He sent Jesus to Die for All our sins, for Everyone on this Planet He (God) Created.

Remember to Judge Not Lest Thou Be Judged!!

Praise Jesus for Today & Everyday!!

Blessings,  \o/

Not even close!
God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah because of their sins.  We are to pray for them.  Love your enemies.  Pray for those who persecute you.  Keep on reading!  You may have missed something.   Smiley

But aren't we so fortunate that He sent Jesus Christ who showed mercy and grace?!
Otherwise we'd all be doomed.

The late Rich Mullins was one of my favorites!
I sure miss his music.

 Going twice!...

 By the way - God also destroyed the entire population of earth, except a few God fearing souls who escaped on an ark...they weren't all homosexuals my sharp tongued friend.

I think if there were ten times more people with your opinion that we should send gay people to the moon, God Himself, would have to ordain people with the tendency to be Gay, just so someone will have compassion on the gay people and evangelize so that gay people will get to hear God's word.  It is for THE LOVE OF GOD that Christ died.  So, that sinners come to know the Love of God.  So, that they might turn from their sins, not by turning from sin, but by turning TO God.  

Christ's main priority and the reason for His death was to show people God's love.  God did NOT say, "See those gay people down there, I think I better get a bunch of people to call themselves Christians so they can tell those gay people they're sinners."

If a person says there is no sin in them, they are a liar and the truth is not in them.  At least each one of us and every one of us has to acknowledge we are sinful.  And if we stand around saying that gay people are sinful, we might be able to notice there's by some strange coincidence a common aspect in all of us--that WE ALL have a tendency to sin.  

I think that our outward signs on sin do not have an indication of what our inward heart is like.
