I guess Paul lived in the days before televangelists :D

Until you give some evidence that I am wrong and your interpretation is right, preponderance of evidence is not an issue. (in other words, we'll worry about how much is required when we actually have some to work with
IF YOU WANT EVIDENCE - LOOK OUT YOUR FRIGGIN DOORSTEP ! HOW MUCH ??? HONESTLY !

*and for the record* Whats wrong with televangilists?-instead of poking FUN and demanding PROOF get off your _ r _ _ and DO SOMETHING YOURSELF

words are one thing.......there now i have that off my chest.......

It's just that a lot of them seem to think that Jesus needs cash. Lots of it and fast. I assume that non-TV evangelists are not so concerned about Jesus' cash flow, hence I separate televangelists from other evangelists.

From the context ( :P ) it seems like you want me to go on the television and demand money from people. I can assure you it is quite possible to both poke fun, demand proof AND get things done if you just plan your day accordingly :)

And for the record, I looked out on my doorstep and didn't find any Biblical context there at all. (See? I checked for evidence, then poked some fun and now I'm off to make myself useful)

what does my doorstep have to do with whether or not Jesus sinned, what the context of Gal 5:20 is, and whether or not I am taking the Bible out of context?

You're making less and less sense. You said I was missing the context. You then failed to tell me what you thought the context actually is. I complained about this, and for some reason I need to go looking for your interpretation?

I'm beginning to feel context is a codeword for 'dogma.' I've been told in the past that I'm quoting out of context even when the person saying this had no idea what the surrounding verses were. What it actually comes down to is a reiteration of a statement of faith along the lines of 'I believe the Bible is inerrant and without contradiction, Jesus died as a sinless sacrifice paying for my sins. Anyone saying otherwise is lying or quoting out of context.' You don't believe that the Bible could contradict itself and because you're too polite to call me a liar, you say I've misunderstood the passage.

Something my new church taught me is that it doesn't matter if you're gay or not. If you're not saved, it's too late to save yourself anyways, and if you don't want to accept, anyways. I'm sure your friend and girlfriend are great people, but our problem, is with christians being gay.

And how old ius your friend? People who are gay do not know the meaning to life. Once you have found it, like I have, you won't be as ignorant as to run off with someone your own age.

Homosexuals are sinners. Bible makes that very plain. So are an awful lot of people in the world. Drug addicts are sinners. Prostitutes are sinners. They're also victims of self-destructive lifestyles. In my view, that's actually what a lot of homosexuals are.

In the cosmic sense, all of us, including you, me, and Pastor Jim, are sinners. The difference lies in how they address that sin. Christians are supposed to struggle against their sin and ask God for forgiveness. They're not supposed to revel in it, claim it's 'okay' and demand special rights to recognize that their sin isn't a problem.

I have no problem with people who struggle with homosexual feelings. I don't even really have a problem with homosexuals who hate what they're doing and try to break free from it. They are sinners in need of God's grace just as you and I are. I DO have a problem with Homosexuals who flaunt it in people's face and dare them to do something about it. Maybe that's unchristian of me and I ought to turn the other cheek, but there it is.

Haha, I just found this quote hilarious :)

I must agree with Afalstein here in that, as far as I can see, the Bible is quite clear that homosexuality is a sin (and that basically everything else is a sin as you alluded to). But I also agree on the point that, once again as far as I can see, the judging part will be done by God, Jesus and the disciples.

Thanks!

Bluntness isn't always a virtue, but I must say it's a characteristic of mine. I'm glad you two seem to agree with my appraisal here.

Yeah, I'm not sure how to take that one, but Afalstein seems like a knowledgeable person so I'll take it as a compliment :D
