Our faith is based on the word of God which has stood the test of time for thousands of years. You serve the Lord of lies who will deceive many into eternal darkness.

My faith is based on the Word which IS God, but you've made it clear that Word is second to the word you don't bother to apply your intellect toward. I don't need a get out of hell free card. God may do with me as He likes.

What is the result of our two contrasting beliefs? Maybe there are testimonies all over the Internet about how liberal Christianity destroyed their lives, I'm not sure. But there are thousands and thousands of testimonies about how horrible your belief system is. There is even a website dedicated to those who want to tell others how your beliefs have either destroyed their lives, driven them to atheism, or left them drained of inner strength and purpose.

Wonder why that is? Why aren't ex-liberal Christians found all over the Internet?

But you don't believe testimony either.(because that is what the Bible really is). You love your biblical ignorance and glorify it. Your sinfulness is so ingrained in you that that biblical ignorance becomes a shield to keep you from facing yourself.

No jeff. Your faith is based on the Bible and it is NOT the word of God, Jesus IS!!! Jesus and the New Covenant He instituted are what you deny when you rely on the Bible as the word of God instead of the Spirit of agape love (Who IS God)..

The point has no bearing on whether homosexual relations are wrong, only whether promiscuity is dangerous.

Focus on the OP

What sexual activities do homosexuals engage in that heterosexuals do not?

Support your accusation that I have never answered your questions in the past...or expose yourself as a liar and and a fraud.

There's a saying that discretion is the better part of valor. And, I feel Jeff, that 'discretion' has not been your strong point on this discussion page. You've placed yourself in 'harm's way' by goading people with your pious and condemning attitude rather than your having used discretion to avoid this. And they, quite naturally, have retaliated as you would have known in advance that they would. You should have been able to defend your argument re the thread title with the very scriptures you claim to rely on FOR your faith-driven belief. But you didn't. You offer no counter argument to the arguments made by others but rather resort to name calling and condemnation ...similar to that you use toward gay people. This comes across to others who read your posts as being rather 'typically Jeff'. How can you honestly believe that those who might be new to the Christian faith would be in any way impressed by this kind of thing from a professed Christian?

See what I mean, Jeff? You make such a horrible threat to those who don't hold to the same condemning and spiteful belief that you ascribe to. Is this really the kind of thing that Jesus would say?

Exactly. But, unfortunately, red herrings are all that Jeff has got.

Sadly though, those who might normally be supportive of the thread title have left Jeff to fight the battle all on his own.

Yours is one of the most historically ignorant statements filled with self-serving pride that I have ever seen on CD.

What you are is not Christian. You speak as a servant of the selfish American Empire---an anti-God position.

Roosevelt forced the Japanese to attack the U.S. by cutting off their oil supply---we were the primary source. They attacked in retaliation. Then we followed suit decades later with the first Iraq war to protect OUR oil sources.

The United States has literally raped small and third world countries to obtain cheap resources. That's how we remain the richest nation in the world, because blowhards encourage us to be thieves and wave the flag and sing "Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition.

In 2004 John Perkins wrote a book entitled "Confessions of an Economic Hitman," detailing his recruitment out of college by a company that was primarily funded by the U.S. government. His job? To go to countries and convince leaders via bribes to allow American companies to come in and develop electrical grids. They promised to use only natives for the work (at 20 cents per hour, seven days a week) if those nations gave primary access to valuable oil, gas and mineral resources to the U.S. Only the government leaders in those countries benefitted from the deal. The people work without healthcare and without vacations and with the promise of being fired if they miss work for any reason. After all, the countries have millions of people struggling to stay alive.

Yet your national selfishness is one of the main reasons so many of the ordinary people in those countries hate us. Praise God. Right?

Because you are much like your younger twin, jeffbase40, glorying in your ignorance you won't research for yourself.

From his book as reported in Wikipedia:
-----------
"Economic hit men (EHMs) are highly paid professionals who cheat countries around the globe out of trillions of dollars. They funnel money from the World Bank, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), and other foreign "aid" organizations into the coffers of huge corporations and the pockets of a few wealthy families who control the planet's natural resources. Their tools included fraudulent financial reports, rigged elections, payoffs, extortion, sex, and murder. They play a game as old as empire, but one that has taken on new and terrifying dimensions during this time of globalization."
-----------
He shows a report with his real education and the one forged for him that he gave to leaders in other companies. When he failed in Panama because that country's leader rejected U.S. efforts through Perkins his plane crashed in what remains an unsolved mystery (1981). Two months later the President of Ecuador who had rejected efforts of U.S. companies to expand their rape of resources died in a remarkably similar accident. Perkins believes the CIA accomplished in both countries what bribes could not. He also oppose all forign aid as he states it is continued bribe money to leaders in poor countries to allow the U.S. a continued right to rape. Little of the aid goes to the poor people in those nations.

This all proves your superficial scriptural knowledge as the Bible as it is full of economic "leveling." Only the government loaned money (charging interest was forbidden in the OT), and every 50 years or so it would forgive all debts resulting in gigantic economic booms.

Your disgusting nationalism is proof you worship an American tribal god, not the God written about in Scripture.

This nation is no different than Rome was in Jesus' day. Praise of the institutions of men, including religious denominational institutions, is simply cursing everything Jesus stood for.

Your religion praises wars, supports national theft, and denies equality to all except those you deem worthy under the law. Those who support such are whited sepulchers full of dead men's bones. You don't support freedom in Christ, you seek converts to be submissive peasants to American Empire.
