As opposed to stoning people for adultery (Leviticus 20:10). and lets remind ourselves what adultery includes (according to the Old Covenant Law) Leviticus 18:8 (AV) 8 The nakedness of thy father’s wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father’s nakedness. Isaiah 47:1–3 (AV) 1 Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, sit on the ground: there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called tender and delicate. 2 Take the millstones, and grind meal: uncover thy locks, make bare the leg, uncover the thigh, pass over the rivers. 3 Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and I will not meet thee as a man. I don't know about you, but I'm ready to take up rocks to throw in then next Sunday goin' to meetin' services! To say nothing about the unchurched outside world! 2 hours ago, johnthebaptist said: Why would I care if it's confirmed in the New Covenant? God told us homosexuality is an abomination.

A homosexual does not occupy a special place of being extra sinful just by existing. Their sins are dealt with the same way as any other sins. A celibate homosexual Christian is no different from a celibate heterosexual single Christian in the eyes of God. If you aren't thinking sinful thoughts or doing sinful things, you aren't sinning.

I understand you to be saying that simply being homosexual in inclination is a sin, and therefore more of a sinner than a heterosexual when it comes to thoughts and feelings of a desire. That being a homosexual means that human being is an abomination to God just by existing, even if celibate. I am saying that this is not the case. Have I misunderstood you? If you aren't thinking sinful thoughts, then you don't have a homosexual inclination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying that a man or woman can stop feeling any desire, just switch their desires off - full stop? If not, then heterosexuals and homosexuals are no different. Are you saying that homosexuals are MORE sinful than heterosexuals if they are both celibate outside marriage? Its not a trick question. Do you view them all the same, ir do you consider homosexuals as more sinful? If someone commits a homosexual act, that doesn't mean he is a homosexual forever, for the same reason that if I steal a candy bar as a child, that doesn't make me a thief forever.

What is your attitude towards celibate homosexuals? You seem to be saying they are a worse kind of person than celibate single heterosexuals and have to stop being homosexual inside in order to be acceptable to God. If you are celibate in thought and deed, you are not a homosexual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, so you are saying there are no homosexuals or heterosexuals when thoughts are pure? No inclinations or desires? They are all a neuter human? Whatever gave you the idea no one is celibate in thought? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
