You wrote earlier that it doesn't say anything about homosexuality in the Bible. I was just pointing out an example where it does. It's referencing men should not lie with men as it is a abomination. I'm paraphrasing.

He convicts us of righteousnes and how to judge righteously, which is seeing things not by how they appear but how they are in the unseen. So my advice to cure your sin loving conscious is to eat at the table of the righteous.
So, when Jesus preached repentance, He really meant repent from believing you need to repent?

See, here's the thing. You don't "know" any more than everyone else "knows" You assume you know, because you were taught that what you know is true, and everyone else is wrong. Just because you think you are a special person who "knows" the truth, doesn't mean it is so. Sorry to burst your bubble, but millions believe you are wrong, and what the "know" is correct. You can't all be right. You can all be wrong, however.

I know that homosexuality is a sin.

-------------------------------
Bottom line is, if you keep one part of the law (for righteousness sake) you must keep all the laws. In addition, you should rebuke God for making biblical exceptions to His own laws.
I find the Bottom line since Pentecost is that Jesus fulflilled the Constitution of the Mosaic Law as per Romans 10:4.
Plus, the temporary Constitution of that old Mosaic Law was only for one nation the ancient nation of ancient Israel.
However, we are to keep 'pre-Mosaic law' such as found at Genesis 9:3-4 about the sacredness of blood.
The vascular residue left in already bled meet does Not mean eat meat only well done. - Lev. 17:11-14.

Keeping in mind the detail that it is the 'practice of homosexuality' which is the sin of fornication.

No, eat from a different tree. You are what you eat.

Do you believe that Jesus Christ is the goodness of God spoken of in Romans 2:4?.

Look how beautifully the Aramaic bible states it.

Or do you presume upon the wealth of his sweetness and upon his patience and upon the place that he gave to you, and do not know that the sweetness of God brings conversion to you?


That's right Jimmie, God lit up our hearts by Jesus Christ and revealed God for how he truly is.

Jesus Christ is the exact representation of all that God is, and it gets better he is what we all are.

No, you think homosexuality is a sin. You don't know anything. See, that's where people go off the rails with their thinking. You don't know anymore than any other person. You may think you know, but that isn't the same thing.


So, how about if I were to say this.... I know you are wrong. So see, I am right, and you are wrong, cuz I believe it....

Believing that sin is real and that we need to repent does not negate the goodness of God. Actually, it reveals it. God’s mercy is a beautiful thing.
