Yup ... Vizio's response is what God said to do.1 Corinthians 6:18-20

Since homosexuality is immoral, God says to run away from it:
1 Corinthians 6:18-20
Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body. .... You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.
But as we know, those who do not flee (run away) probably don't because God hands them over to depravity: Romans 1:24-27.

As for those who approve of immorality like that minister and those here... nothing but a righteous decree from God of a person deserving death awaits.
And when God speaks of death in this context, it doesn't mean only the physical
Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
Romans 1:32
I find it fascinating how you equate every bible verse with "what God said",,, as if God dictated the entire bible and it is his actual voice speaking. You don't even bother saying, "The bible says...." you just quote scriptures and declare "God said it." Amazing!

It shouldn't be amazing when:
2 Peter 1:21
For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human,
spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.

2 Timothy 3:16
All Scripture is God-breathed ....

John 3:35
... the Scripture cannot be broken

OT \ NT:
  • spoken from God by the Holy Spirit
  • God breathed
  • cannot be broken

Comforting, isn't it?

For certain mindsets.

What's even more amazing is that these people can't even talk (or write) without quoting.

It's amazing how people keep denying God's truth..... and keep on denying so much scripture by ignoring, twisting, and changing God's truth (word) .

It's also amazing how Jesus was always saying and quoting "It is written!" ......

This is the liberal, 'anything goes' crowd that shows-up on almost every thread to categorically renounce scripture in favor of their own 'feel good' opinions. They are only willing to hear 'opinions' that agree with their own ... and reject the authority of scripture ... as rigid and narrow-minded. They certainly seem to be among those to whom the Bible refers:

"For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear." 2 Tim. 4:3
