toldailytopic: Gay marriage.

[Stripe]

We do not get to pick and choose and justify.Galatians 5:2-4 (New International Version) 2Mark my words! I, Paul, tell you that if you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of no value to you at all. 3Again I declare to every man who lets himself be circumcised that he is obligated to obey the whole law. 4You who are trying to be justified by law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.

Governments are not allowed to make laws? :squint:

 

[madman]

There is only one unforgivable sin and it ain't sex.

This has nothing to do with someone's relationship with God. You are WAY off course.

That means that homosexuality is a forgivable sin no longer deserving of death.

Nonsense. The two systems have nothing to do with one another.

 

[Ktoyou]

There is no such thing as gay marriage.

...or shoe forks. lain:

Right, a gay marriage is a happy young carefree marriage and we all grow beyond it. There is no other real definition.

I care little about the issue, yet I pray for sinners, all sinners.

 

[CabinetMaker]

Is it possible to forgive murder?

Yes.

Governments are not allowed to make laws? :squint:

Paul was not addressing governments in this passage. He is talking to you.

Yeah, there is sure some nonsense in that.

 

[madman]

Paul was not addressing governments in this passage.

Then why do you mix the two?

 

[CabinetMaker]

Then why do you mix the two?

I didn't. I addressed you. You said homosexuals are deserving of death. That statement comes directly from Leviticus 20 which is Old Covenant law. You call for the death of homosexuals. I want to know if you support the death penalty for all Old Covenant law or not.

 

[madman]

I didn't. I addressed you. You said homosexuals are deserving of death.

They are.

That statement comes directly from Leviticus 20 which is Old Covenant law.

It also comes from Romans 1 & 13.

You call for the death of homosexuals.

Yes.

I want to know if you support the death penalty for all Old Covenant law or not.

No, I do not.

 

[madman]

Yeah, there is sure some nonsense in that.

You simply lack the intelligence to discern between our relationship with God through Jesus Christ based on His righteousness, and our relationship with one another based on morality through laws.

 

[GuySmiley]

Let's legalize it and move on to something more interesting and important...

I agree with Granite, except for the legalizing it part.

 

[CabinetMaker]

You simply lack the intelligence to discern between our relationship with God through Jesus Christ based on His righteousness, and our relationship with one another based on morality through laws.

Morality is not found in laws.

 

[CabinetMaker]

They are. It also comes from Romans 1 & 13. Yes. No, I do not.

Man, is you in trouble!

 

[Granite]

Man, is you in trouble!

You bet he is. He's Sozo.

 

[CabinetMaker]

You bet he is. He's Sozo.

Really! Well, that explains everything!

 

[Ktoyou]

You bet he is. He's Sozo.

Why do you say that?

 

[Stripe]

Yes.

So what should a government do about murderers?

Paul was not addressing governments in this passage. He is talking to you.

Not a very applicable passage then, is it? If homosexuality is made illegal it will be made illegal by the government, not by me.

 

[PlastikBuddha]

It is inevitable.

 

[CabinetMaker]

So what should a government do about murderers?

Depends. Some are deserving of the death penalty, others are not.

Not a very applicable passage then, is it? If homosexuality is made illegal it will be made illegal by the government, not by me.

But we advocate those laws. As a Christian, I live under the New Covenant so I am extremely unwilling to put people back under the Old Covenant.

:squint:

So are some homosexuals deserving of the DP and others not?

But we advocate those laws. As a Christian, I live under the New Covenant so I am extremely unwilling to put people back under the Old Covenant.

Extremely unwilling, yet you do advocate that the government uphold justice and punish criminals. Sounds like you've got a serious disconnect somewhere, mate.
