Yes! And in keeping with the title of this thread, there are many churches in the world that have a compromised stance....some because of ignorance, but most because of the misguided notion that membership is a numbers game, so they compromise on God's call to holiness, and embrace what the world thinks. God is not to be found in churches like that---they are dead, spiritually, and He will not bless them.
James 4:4 (NLT)
You adulterers! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God? I say it again: If you want to be a friend of the world, you make yourself an enemy of God.
Pay particular attention to verse 26, 27
The ultimate end of wickedness is it leads people to into homosexual actions. Men with men, women with women. God just lets them go their own way which ends in these kinds of acts.
Verse 32, and those who practice such acts are "worthy of death" Not only do they know it is wrong, they also take pleasure in doing them!!!
21* Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22* Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23* And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24* Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25* Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26* For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27* And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28* And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29* Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30* Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31* Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32* Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
Well, its clear when people are in rejection of the scriptures, and of the power of Gods Spirit.
You must not understand the bible or what these people claim to believe?
A "sadistic idiot"...lol Yes all your "love" is just flowing like a "peaceful" river...
Biblically in the context of the wickedness one has surrendered to, clearly homosexual perversion is proven to be that most extreme of sinful conditions, and show the most reprobate of minds in the human condition.No Christians are ... I guess you approve and promote the wickedness of these people as well?
You seem to be unaware that abstaining from such acts means nothing. It is the desire and lusts of the flesh that sin originates from, just desiring to do them is sin!!!! The action part comes after desiring to do them. All the homosexual people I have ever met where the nicest people in the world. I have never had any problems with them. The problem is nice people and lovely people has nothing to do with salvation. There will not be one nice person in God's Kingdom because they were nice. It is believing that Jesus Christ is Lord of their life that one is saved.
Good post. I've said the same thing, but they don't like it and hurl more abuse.
Of course. Sounds pretty basic. (Notice that's my new thing)

Until you start talking about burning them in hell as per your revenge fantasy.
Too absurd to take seriously, sorry. I think you will find that you can "change" homosexuality about as easily as you can change your eye color or which hand you write with.
You only see hatred in EVERYTHING. And you think it's a good thing. That's your trouble right there.

Define sin first, then we can talk. I think you'll find everyone has a different definition and how on earth can we condemn it if no one sees it the same way?
And no, the world doesn't embrace sin. I think most people strive to actively avoid it.
So a child molester is born that way also I guess and cannot repent of their wicked desires? An adulterer is also unable to change, I guess?

Your task was to back up your claim "homosexual perversion is the extreme end of all wickedness." You failed. This text does not state that in any way, shape or form.
Well we clearly see this perversion is considered "sin'' and the most ungodly of sins in both the Old and New testaments.

Glad you think that's funny - in fact it wasn't a value judgment, it was a simple fact, because you don't have a leg to stand on. You're trying to tell us all with a straight face that homosexuality is a worse sin than murder, and don't deny it please - you know you said it and it's easy enough to go back and find it. Therefore it's a simple fact, if you really believe that to be true then sadist is apt and so is idiot. Find me better words to use if you like.
Provide your proof then or admit you're a liar. You KNOW you can't use your Bible for this one.
No its clearly shown as the end of mans wickedness and rejection of God. "vile affections"

What on earth are you talking about now? Going to hate on the world's largest Christian denomination?
Catholics are Christians. Trust me on this one. I have a dictionary.
Its already been shown, but of course any one who promotes such wickedness rejects the scriptures and the clear and evident truth they speak.

Well then what you're demanding is nothing less than for people to be castrated at birth. We are human beings and if you know anything about biology, we are also sexual beings. Most of us are attracted to the opposite sex, a minority are attracted to the same sex. Either way we experience desires (I'm not touching your judgmental word "lusts") and we cannot do anything about that.
