Then stop pretending that you an expert on Christianity in America.
Stop pretending you're an average Christian.
You are a shrinking, increasingly-impotent, ignorant, spiritually-stunted sub-sect of Christianity that is doomed to be a fleeting footnote in future history books.
why would the Lord of creation want a ugly man.. or fake woman..?
so it is like this story..
only it is more than 2000+ years after he died so that he could raise his own children from the dead( Isa 53).. and everyone elses to be raised in his kingdom ..... and if she leaves He is still going with her!
and most important is that old woman .( me) Even being confirmed by doctors ( and seconded by her peers here ) to be a crazy old thing, I will even follow him through and to all his crazy and bizarre kind of brilliant ideas. Even to that place of only piles of rocks and sand, where confirmed triple humped cammel's poop.
That place that is just as old and a dried up war zone as I have become! A so called "promised land" that is barren as I was.
Why because I know now ( but not at first ) that he is my family and he can even bring and protect and create life there!
and no militant ugly men and fake women in women face .. would understand what that really means.
I just deleted nine posts about guns. That is obviously irrelevant in a forum about Religion and Spirituality. Now you understand how forum rules get written.

So the world needs more people like you who talks trash and throws a fit if someone doesn't believe the same? Digusting filth on your boots. No surprise since you are on the path that leads to darkness.
I am not from the left or right, and I do not follow any political party line. However, "freedom of religion" also means "freedom from religion." In other words, you can believe whatever you want, but others have the right NOT to believe the same things you do, or NOT to believe in anything at all. And, no, a business that caters to the public does NOT have the right to discriminate regardless of what they believe. You can say what you want, but you still need to follow the law which is there to protect society as a whole, whether you like that or NOT is again - irrelevant. Your beliefs are NOT the trump-card.
Where in the Constitution does it give you freedom from religion? You have to steal from my freedom of religion to have freedom from religion if it must be taken to such extremes that we have to strip any public view of religion from those delicate sensitive eyes of anal atheists.
Well that was desperate. I merely made a comment on the state of our country, not politics.
Can you set aside your biased attitude towards good Bible believing Christians?
I've already pointed out where you don't believe the bible. You refuse to heed Jesus' direct injunction that when you are sued by an enemy, you give him double and then some. You hid behind various straw arguments of why you don't have to do what Jesus says.
If you can't do the words in red, how do you call yourself a bible believing Christian? You are not, sir and you have admitted as such.
Christians are now expected to "celebrate" what the Bible teaches is sin. Yes, there are many other sins and we all sin. But this we are to "celebrate." And if you dare speak disagreement you are a bigot. There is no discussion. Celebrate or shut-up. So, yes, it can be an emotional issue.
Why do the heathen rage?
They rage because they hate being accountable to God for their sin.
Since they cannot get their hands around the throat of God, they focus on the next best thing - God and those who seek to follow Him, God's Law and those who honor it.
Sinners cover themselves with lies and false accusations in the same way they cloth their bodies with vile wardrobes and pride in their perverse life style.
"Judge not that you be not judged," they cry - even as they refuse to accept the spiritual principle that no Christian has authority to judge. God's people are called to warn of destruction and punishment. No believer has the authority to call down fire from heaven upon the wicked, but every believer is required to bear witness that something worse can happen to an unrepentant sinner. Warning is not the same as judging, yet no Sodomite will accept this simple axiom. They seek only to justify their sin.
"If you live according to your old nature you will surely die," - Romans 8:6a
Every believer who ever walked the earth had to arrive at the point where they understood they were a sinner in the eyes of God. It is God alone who judges.
Every sinner who ever drew breath tried in vain to justify their wickedness and endlessly sought a salve for their guilt. None every found it apart from God because it is God alone who can justify and heal and save from the ravages of the power of sin.
There is no hell, but there is the Second Death.
The grave awaits us all. God kills. God is not a sadist who runs a torture chamber in the bowels of the earth! That story is pagan myth, not Biblical truth. God kills the unrepentant sinner in Second Death. There is no hell, but there is absolute destruction - total annihilation of the body mind and spirit. There is no part of the human that survives physical death, but there IS a conditional gift of immortal life from God upon those who repent of their sins and willingly choose to abandon their wickedness and choose to live according to God's Law (Romans 8). God will accept no other.
Love saves no one.
Love is a motivation for personal action. Love is the motivation of parents to nurture their young. Love is the motivation for one to help one's neighbor. Love is the motivation to abandon selfish habits and desires to improve the life of another - or to advance a cause. Love does nothing in and of itself.
Therefore the Love of God is the divine motivation to provide salvation here and hereafter to those who will abandon their sinful ways and adopt God's Law in their hearts - to receive God Himself as their guide and redeemer. Salvation and immortal life is conditional upon the desire to accept righteousness. The Second Death, as represented by divine judgment upon the kingdom of Sodom, is reserved for those who refuse. As it was for the kingdom of Sodom, so shall it be for the unrepentant sinner. Not even ashes will remain of him or her. The ground itself will not remember they ever trod its plain and heaven itself will look with contempt upon those that violated God's holy purpose for all things living.
God pushes the button of destruction - not Christians.
God grants conditional immortal life - not preachers or congregations or those who claim love alone is justification for their perversions.
The gay argument is based upon hatred of God, but they are too hypocritical to admit it. Instead they claim they are motivated by love even as they hate those who are trying to warn them of impending destruction. Human love is not called to judge. Human love is called to warn of destruction.
Consider God who takes no pleasure in killing, but earnestly desires every sinner to repent - to abandon wicked perversions that lead to death.
Consider He who offers immortal life for those who abandon their ways and seek to walk according to the Spirit of Holiness.
Consider yourself warned, O sinner.
that's me, hollering from the choir loft...
