[Gunar]

The Roman Catholic Church still regards homosexuality as an "insult to God" and homosexuals and transsexuals will never go to Heaven, a leading cardinal said on Wednesday, prompting a rebuke from the Vatican.

Where does this Roman Catholic cardinal want from to know this? Transsexualism is not mentioned in the Bible. And the quotations in the Bible can be interpreted also differently.

Not mentioned in the Bible?

 

Genesis 1:27

So God created mankind in his own image,

in the image of God he created them;

male and female he created them.

 

Romans 1:26

Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. ²⁷ In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.

 

1 Corinthians 6:9-10

Or do you not know that the unrighteous^[a] will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality,^[b]10 nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.

 

Deuteronomy 22:5

The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the Lord thy God.

[RustyAngeL]

It seems very clear to me who will not inherit the Kingdom of God.

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

Your right Nikki, also look at Lev 18:22 Then go to Romans and read the first chapter.  It talks about sexual sins their too.   I just don't get it.  Why can't the church get it through their heads that homosexuality it a sin, that God did not create them that way, that it is a chosen lifestyle and a lie from the enemy.  They (The Church) really needs to wake up and start to tell the truth.

Wouldn't all sin be an insult to God?

Yes.

 

Isn't all sin an abomination? Its the self-righteous who always pick on "someone else's" sin, rather than sorting out their own self-righteousness.

[Matthitjah]

 

 

 

 

You never know who you will see in Heaven ... and who you won't.

I completely agree.

Ditto!

"Jesus said to them,

'Assuredly, I say to you that tax collectors

and harlots enter the kingdom of God before you'"

(Matthew 21:31).

 

Double ditto!

 

Hey! You don't even know if you will be there yourself. Do you? Are you sure? What makes you think so? I don't know? Now I've scared myself......

 

I think it's pretty straighforward;

 

Ro 10:13

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

We are not picking on anyone.   As Christians we are to speak out against sin.  It's Satan that doesn't like us to speak out against it.   Your demonizing anyone who has the temerity to speak out against the sin of homosexuality is tellilng.
