That doesn't even make sense. That's like saying I'm supposed to judge a
parakeet contest even though I know nothing about parakeets.

If I were a homosexual person, yes, I'd be in a better position to understand
what they are going through. But I'm not, so I can't.

And either way, your missing the most important part, its God's KINDNESS,
TOLERANCE, AND PATIENCE that leads to repentence, not vile poisonous
degradations like "God hates fags."
No, Dave, it makes perfect sense. God does not want us to be hypocritical in our judgements. If we condemn someone who is doing the same things we do, we condemn ourselves.

Also, one who is themselves caught up in a particular form of wickedness cannot clearly recognize the same act in others as evil. A child molester often not see what he is doing as wrong. He often believes that he is doing something loving, and that the child is benefiting from his attentions.

In the same way, someone who is sexually promiscuous does not see that they are harming anyone else, so how can they make a judgement? They have already judged their own behavior to be tolerable, so they will not see others doing the same thing as transgressing.

Then what does? The word of God? Like eating shrimp and pork? Like
washing before meals? Like doing nothing on Sabbath, not even helping
a person in need? Like tithing while ignoring your starving parents? Like
going to the temple even though you have an ongoing fight with your
sibling? Like praying "thank God I'm righteous, and not like that fag over
there?"
I doubt that many people pray to God and tell Him how righteous they are. If they have come to Christ, they recognize that they are not righteous of their own works, and that they need Him as savior for that very fact.

The dietary laws applied to the dispensation of the Law. As did the hygenic laws. Paul clearly points out that in the dispensation of Grace that sexual immorality is not permissible. That's heterosexual and homosexual immorality. Paul tells us to flee from sexual immorality, don't even eat with a brother who practices it. Hand him over to Satan.

Awsome witness :crow: !
