One can love their homosexual neighbor... they were created in the image of God.. they just sin and sin is hated by God yet God loves the sinner but doesn't accept the sin.
This is not about gay marriage, the question is this: Would Jesus have allowed practicing homosexuals to follow him?
Interestingly Judas was allowed to follow Him, but this was because he was a 'mole' whose identity and intentions were known to Jesus, but who was allowed in because the betrayal and crucifixion as meant to happen. Jesus said of Judas "woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man! It would be better for him if he had not been born.".
Maybe if the OP didn't want politics brought into an issue regarding homosexuality, he should have put it in the correct forum.
Human love in it's purest form has been sexualized to the extreme. I really think that most people do not know the difference between sex and love. That is the glitch in this thread. The chemicals that stimulate our pleasure centers are not love. It is pleasure. Those who have relationships based in sexual pleasure and call it love are mistaken. I have said to young people who are "in love" _ "Would you still be together if you penis disappeared and her vagina stopped existing?"
How Christ would have dealt with love as compared to sex would have been done with logic. We on the other hand only think of sexual stimulation and can not get past that concept regarding hetro and homosexuality.
Don't be a DA.
The thread title is "would Jesus allowed practicing homosexuals to follow him?". It is specifically asking about homosexuals following him. Not about everyone who follows him.
I don't expect these people to make much sense. They don't even know their own holy book let alone anything about sexual orientation.
There is a lot more to the Holy Book than what we have been taught. The Council of Nicea threw away the gnostic texts because, according to them, it would "confuse" the early Christians.
She was a sinner, and it makes zero difference if she was a paid prositute or a woman caught in act of adultery. The point is that she followed Jesus AFTER she had made the commitment to obey His command "sin no more". Do you understand this?
Finn, she wasn't the woman caught in adultry. She was a follower of Jesus, sometimes referred to as the apostle to the apostles. She was the first witness to the resurrection. There is no mention in the Bible of her being the unnamed adultress or a prostitute. Some go as far to say she was an apostle.
Please do not read the words of that demon! He spreads the word of Satan, not of Jesus! I am the true messenger of God, through me Jesus will come!
God told me that Jesus told him that he wants us to beat down all of the people preaching that homosexuality is some sort of sin, because as the Bible tells us "Jesus is totally cool with homosexuality!" Luke 234:16-588
Dude, enough already.
