Tolerating Gays

[Natt]

I was just wondering about Christians opinions on Gays.

If two Gays ran a shop should we patronise it?

How should we talk to Gays?

[ayin jade]

Talk to them like people. Like you would any lost sinner. Talk to them about Jesus when you can.

Answer to both questions> It all depends whether or not they are open to the gospel. If they don't want to know, then for me it would be ....sayonara.

[senerhu]

they are your lost brothers...

hate the sin, not the sinner...

You should be able to answer this one on your own.

Did God create all things?

What does God's commandments say about gays?

(hint there are only about 13 actual commandments from God everything else is mans' law)

Now look at the things around you that God also created like animals.

Have you seen gay behavior in animals and if you have did you abuse them or reject them and if so why?

Man's greatest enemy is man not God.

I'm quite relieved with your answers. I've heard some negative ways to treat Gays from Christians. I just wanted to know how widespread this was.

There are those who have chosen, for whatever reason, to take an especially hard line on homosexuality. My hunch is, it's something of a knee-jerk reaction to all the "gay rights" stuff being shoved down our throats on a daily basis. Sadly, this reactionary position (such as that of Westboro Baptist) is not only contradictary to Scripture, but is counter-productive from a Kingdom perspective.

Sin is not a person, so you should talk to them like God talking to you.

How about if the person had a drug problem. How should we talk to them? Or what if they were actively involved in an affair? Or maybe they had a lying problem. Or a hatred problem, maybe they hate too much, those people can get pretty ugly. Those are the ones that may be harder to talk with, I'd say.

"For all have sinned..."

Not that any sin is ok but we should take the log out of our own eye before tweezing other people's splinters.

Jesus loves us.... He may not like what we do. My uncle was bisexual. Not pratising for a long time. We were excellent friends...best friend. He died of bone cancer... He heard and saw angels rushing around him... then I left him a couple of days and he called me to say I left my bible at his house. I did not. He said it was so big he can't believe I ligged it around. The next day I went up there The bible was huge...King James version embosse in gold with gilded pages. He had been reading it. He asked me if it was okay to fall in Love with Jesus even though he was a man. Of course not. That is what you want to do. I stayed with him. He had no further questions He fell really in Love. Said to me homosexuality is a perversion of gods love and I said I know. He said tell others. I said I do and I will. Three days later he died peacefully in his bed. And that huge bible disappeared after he died. Only God can see into the heart of man. I had a 78 yr old woman who we prayed together and she spoke in tongues prayed constantly inenglish and in tongues but she carried her rosary beads around with her. Someone tried to convince me she was not saved due to her beads. That woman had more love in her heart for people. She carried them to remind her to pray. She lived til she was 90. God needed all those prayers patricia
