[Candi770]

Sin is Sin is Sin is Sin.

It still stinks in the nostrils of The Most High God. We should be a sweet savor before the Lord.

If he accepts one sin-he would accept all sins- that would make him a lier.

But he accepts all that repent and turn to him. No person is exempt-he will accept all who come.

Committing murder is the same in his eyes as adultry or lieing-not any different-all sins.

Amen.

Iagree with what you have posted In the eyes of God sins are sins.The problem is not all believe that sex with the same gender is sin, we all have sin,Thus The Cross. But we must believe what God tells us. Love in Christ littlejoe

However, Littlejoe

When we take up the cross we leave our past sins behind and we attempt to do what is righteous in the eyes of God. If we are truly repentant we turn our backs to that sin and commit it no more.

A sin is a sin. THat is so true.

I agree, we are to love the person but hate the sin. NOT hate the person. Hate is a sin in its self when it is toward a human being.

"You shall not lie with a man as with a woman; it is abomination."

"Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind: it is abomination".

There is no doubt that this means its a sin. But the verse was put there for one reason, and that is just to say that God does not like it. Now, he does not like lies, or killing, but he feels awful when someone commits this sin and all the other sins, but this one he really gets sick about. THis is the definition of abomination:

1 Corinthians 6:9 Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Heither the sexually immoral nor ilolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor the drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kindom of God.

6:11 And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God..

To be homosexual and saved means you turn from what clearly will cause you not to inherit the Kingdom of God.

I do not hate the person, I do hate the sin.

So if we feel guilt in our hearts for some action we have made does that mean it is just guilt and not conviction from the Holy Spirit that we have commited a sin against God?
