Why did Jesus say in Matthew 19:5, "For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh" if he thought same sex marriage was okay?
Mel White is right - God does love the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgenders of the world. Jesus loved the outcasts of the world and talked about God's love for them. He said in Matthew 15, "For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander. These are what make a man unclean.' Jesus talked a lot about needing to 'repent' from sins or you too will perish. What did he mean by repent and sins? Would a god who loves us judge us?
Maybe we are all 'bigots' not just Diane Gramley and Jane Richey. The dictionary says a bigot is one who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his own belief or opinion. Seems like a lot of people on this blog could be defined in that manner.
Want to end "bigotry" in Venango County and in other places? It starts with repentance from all sin (sexual and otherwise) -- but that is where the problem is -- we want to redefine the boundaries on human sexuality as God has established them! Strange, is it not, that those who want to abide by God's established boundaries are the bad guys and those who want God to keep His mouth shut on the issue of morality while drawing up the new boundary lines are the good guys! Enjoy while you can, because the time is coming when it will be (in the words of the famous Gomer Pyle) "Surprise, surprise, surprise!" And we will discover God meant every word He said, no redefining permitted!
