And many more Christians believe that the Scriptures are the definitive infallible Word of God, the vehicle that He uses to speak to us.
That is exactly the problem. Those of us who have grown and moved beyond that limited way of thinking and found God to be so much more are urging you to take a deeper dive.

But will not step back to see that there is no scriptural support for such a belief. Yet there's plenty that clearly show God speaking directly to people. It should be what is God not the Bible saying to me.
I go by what you post on here ,and in your case, you being a calvinist too, it's not hard figuring it out.
You know the Westboro inbreeds aren't Calvinists, right? Their theology is much different from mine. The fact that I think you're halfway serious in that question makes me sad.

wow. This is like prophecy playing out right in front of our eyes.
2 Tim 4:3 "For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions,..."
I read that as a young man and couldn't believe that people would outright deny Scripture. But here it is. Thanks for the object lesson.

Actually I have stepped back many times. When you take all the verses in question together as a whole, then the scriptural support is very strong against homosexuality. Paul even used certain language so there would be no doubt that he is talking about all forms of homosexual conduct. If God blesses gay marriage then He would have never strongly condemned such unions in the first place back in Leviticus.
And you can deny it all you want. Jesus still plainly states that God's design is ONLY for heterosexual unions.

Didn't we already play this game once before?
Quote:
God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood--to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished--
he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.
Romans 3:25-26
There is no death penalty for sin anymore. Jesus paid that price. We hate sin as God does, but we don't hate the sinner.

so jesus was kidding when he said
" For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."
Heaven still out there jeff?
Now you're gonna try and convince me jesus either committed suicide or was put to death by the jews and that means it was fulfilled, right?
