100% Acceptance Of Homosexuality By 2040?

am always shocked when I see Christians rebuke Christians for speaking out against homosexuality, and that’s what I thought was happening.

This is also how it seems to me. I mean the OT asks what we think about "acceptance" by 2040. 

I guess God must be a bigot and a gay basher then. They can take it up with Him.

I lost a wonderful friend who was like a brother to me under this basis. He told me that I was spreading lies about the gospel and hate upon the LGBT community. After losing his mother to cancer and his dog shortly after he turned down his fathers offer to transistion. His father was divorced long before, so its not surprising. However, to me it was heart breaking because he was my only friend who knew me inside and out and I him. We went to the same church who my cusion married the pastors daughter. 

 

While my stance on LGBT plus sign and percent sign ;P

is different then most Christians I still deny this method as a reasonable way to deal with homosexuality and transgenderism as a practical answer. Only through Christ do we find our way home. 

 

Same for abortion. It is murder of God's children in the Zigot stage of pregnancy. To simply kill your own child is a monsterous way to do birth control. Also note that removing the egg out of the Fallopian tube is not abortion. Its a way to save a mother from this developing to the point they both die. Also note that we have ICU's and yet have no desire to create a way to take this unborn from dangers of death to developing outside the wohmb. The child would need to develope far enough to where it can reasonably be put into an ICU. Again this is something we have technology for and yet never wanted to create scientific treatments for it. The mother would survive and the child if they die would not be in vain as it would.

Homosexuality is indeed unacceptable. But does this mean that a man or woman who struggles with homosexuality is crucified for it?

No. We love our neighbor as ourselves, so we work for their benefit and not for their condemnation. This has come up on the forum many times before, and the same distortion rears its head: we're "bashing" gays. 

No, we aren't. Remember the Samaritan woman at well from the 4th chapter of John who said, 'I have no husband,' and the Lord commended her for speaking truthfully for she had 5 husbands, and none of them were her husband. 

We read how her witness led many to our Lord Jesus Christ. Adultery and fornication are unacceptable, but how many of us engaged in both when we were strangers? Many of us did.

We don't bash adulterers and fornicators, we love them and work for their good.

I look at wholesale abortion for convenience, etc.--as Molech worship. Sacrificing of children. Although modern civilization is more (whitewashed) in terms of what scripture teaches of the unseen realm, it hasn't changed from days past.

I can't prove it, but I suspect from God's POV--it is the same.

Wrong thread Brother.   This one's ab0out homosexuality, not abortions.

Hi Starise,

after reading the OT I assumed they were against homosexuality.

Its not what I meant by Christians rebuking Christians for speaking out against homosexuality.

I just wanted to clear that up, but I will check out the YouTube.

Uh oh. Reading this spurred me to check my own posts in the topic. 

It looks okay for now.

I say pray for people, that whither they be LGBT or not, they come to know Jesus Christ as Lord.

I don’t think it will be accepted with my family and friends from church.
