TOUCHY SUBJECT ALERT!!!! Well ......I'm not going to judge another Christian's "validity" one way or the other based on wheter they are this or that,but the Word itself will test it.

"Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and in the Spirit of our God." (I CORINTHIANS 6:9-11).


No human is perfect otherwise we wouldn't need GOD. EVERYONE struggles daily with something.I struggle with being a reviler and other issues every waking moment of my life and wonder if I'm a valid Christian,but I think the fact that someone DOES worry about it lends some validity to their walk with GOD.Will I make heaven? Will a gay person make heaven? Only GOD knows and anyone who says different is NOT to be trusted at their word.Good luck in this thread,you're gonna need it.LOL

Based on the definition I'd consider any homo sexual to be an Invalid. Love the PC footnote lol


Noun
Singular
invalid
Plural
invalids


invalid (plural invalids)

One who is confined to home or bed due to illness, disability or injury
Any person with disability, e.g. invalid carriage

[edit] Usage notes
The sense of a person confined to home or bed is considered politically incorrect by some.

If they are in wheel chairs or on crutches, they are invalid. So if they are without these, I guess they are valid

How could anyone be "invalid"...doesn't Jesus preach love and forgiveness of Everyone? I thought that was what Christianity was supposed to be about. It's "Love thy neighbor" not "love thy Straight neighbor"!

Is gluttony a sin? What does the Bible say about overeating?

Someone should tell this to all the middle age evangelical women, who all seem to be at least 250 pounds.
