God does not make homosexuals, fornicators, liars, etc. In Adam we all died spiritually, but in Christ we can be made alive through repentance to God the Father and obeying what his son said to do and said what to do. <br /><br />I was guilty of several sins that keep a person out of the Kingdom of God, but I found myself in great pain and went to the Father and surrendered my life to him and seek to obey him. I do not practice the sins that are listed by Paul and Jesus. I do not want to sin period, but if I sin I confess it and get back on track.<br /><br />Jesus said in Revelation 22: 14Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter by the gates into the city. 15Outside are the dogs and the sorcerers and the immoral persons and the murderers and the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices lying.<br /><br />Paul said in 1 Timothy 1: 8But we know that the Law is good, if one uses it lawfully, 9realizing the fact that law is not made for a righteous person, but for those who are lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers 10and immoral men and homosexuals and kidnappers and liars and perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound teaching, 11according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, with which I have been entrusted.<br /><br />Paul says in 1 Corinthian 6: 9Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, 10nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God. 11SUCH WERE SOME OF YOU, BUT YOU WERE WASHED, BUT YOUR WERE SANCTIFIED, BUT YOU WERE JUSTIFIEDi n the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09010159157954465949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4406983286967173975.post-9304542289560544432014-10-12T18:31:33.232-04:002014-10-12T18:31:33.232-04:00Hi, I understand your premise and feelings about c...Hi, I understand your premise and feelings about churches ,etc..I am getting sick of hearing so -called 'homosexuals' getting slammed. It's as if that were the only sin in the world..pre-marital sex is a sin if not done with the one has married, having sex other than strictly for love in a balanced way is a sin even if married, over-eating is gluttony and is then a sin, oh let's not forget about gettting divorced. Why aren't we slamming every single divorced couple ? Is there sin any less worse? Who says which is which? where does it end? Only to make a point.. Is it dangerous to be judging a person on their ONE: sex life and TWO: God born and given sexuality? What about bi-exuals, what about people born with two sex organs, what about people born into the wrong sex body/ the list is much longer than this one isolated word which in my translation does not read Homosexual but child molester... That is like the pharisees whom, "You do not enter the kingdom of heaven nor do you allow others to enter!"..All this talk is going to turn away people from Christ whom he would redeem because HE was the one who made them to begin with in that way" I really think this is a dangerous territory, esp. considering Paul in his writings was mostly referring to the activities that were going on in ROME at the time, these were ungodly unbelieving people to begin with. Do you not realize there can be people who have been born genuitly from above that might well be 'gay' but have never had sex with another male in the ENTIRE LIFE and are virgins because of fear of being judged by a cruel world? This is a sad state of affairs brother. It is good to see someone who Loves Our Lord, Shalom and 'work out our Salvation with Feat and Trembling" and not someone else s. (P.S. we cannot refer back to the OT either, that was for the Israelite at that time, for if we do then we must refer to ALL of them, which means people need to be killed). This is getting out of hand...beside, it's freeing not to be concerned about such minutae. My territory lately has been The Prosperity Gospel, the all is Grace and Seed of Faith movements and the big mega churches..now we are talking huge congregations of people that are but polyanna's of Christ, though we can't judge, we just never know in those regards when The Lord might act in amazing way in their life. Judge with Righteous judgement I believe was his words..but more so, he said, Follow Me...that might be because he is also saying "keep your nose out of other peoples sex lives "lStephenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01980724753973410660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4406983286967173975.post-84182841862991498032014-10-04T12:00:09.200-04:002014-10-04T12:00:09.200-04:00It is so very sobering.

I believe the Lord impressed on me that I had no clue how far we are already into the The Apostasy He foretold. One of the biggest eye openers was when I saw that Paul's warning about what would happen after death. Wolves would come into the church and devistate the sheep. No preacher can be trusted with our souls.

He clearly and plainly teaches in his book "Eternal Security" that a Christian may live a life of sin or even totally and permanently deny and disown the Lord Jesus and yet will still go to heaven. For Stanley, salvation requires merely a momentary faith without repentance. And that faith is merely that Jesus died for our sins. No commitment or allegiance is necessary. This is the cheap grace message that merely whitewashes our sins and supposedly saves us from the wrath of God rather than truly saves us from our sins. Add to this inadequate salvation the doctrine of 'once saved always saved' you have a deadly concoction that damns many to hell.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4406983286967173975.post-91810825515558189532014-06-10T07:24:02.774-04:002014-06-10T07:24:02.774-04:00Right on.

They are busy building their entertainment centers they call church. We have the false money teachers and seeker friendly teachers who were likely never called by God to teach. Now we are seeing the ecumenical movement where the churches are joining with the Catholics. The Catholics have never been a Christian church. God bless you!

What did he tell the lame man? "stop sinning or something worse will happen to you". What is worse than being lame for 38 yrs? Hell. Paul asks us "how can we who have died to sin, live any longer therein"? This is the problem with the false teachers of today. As Charles Stanley, they are tickling the ears. When speaking to the Christians about sins, Paul says "and such were some of you". Matthew 16:24 ISV "Then Jesus told his disciples, "If anyone wants to follow me, he must deny himself, pick up his cross, and follow me continuously". Adulterers, fornicators, and homosexuals go to hell, unless they turn from their sin and follow Jesus.

For there is no distinction: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus". (Romans 3: 21-25). We are all sinners and we all need the Lord's grace and mercy. A homeosexual can come to salvation and repentance through Christ just as the thief on the cross did. Sanctification is a process and while we all strive not to sin, we do all still sin. This would be no different for a gay man who might be having difficulty with his temptation but is striving to be Holy in the Lord. I would agree that if a homeosexual has no desire to change his lifestyle (as Stanley suggested) than maybe the sincerity upon salvation was not there and therefore the man is not saved. Only God knows the heart of the man.

It is easy to call some actions a sin, but Jesus did more than that and said in Revelation 21: 7The person who conquers will inherit these things. I will be his God, and he will be my son. 8But people who are cowardly, unfaithful, detestable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars will find themselves in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. This is the second death.” Mr. Stanley told a practicing homosexual that he would lose his reward in heaven, but Jesus said those who practice such sins will find themselves in the lake that burns with fire and sulfer. It would appear that Mr. Stanley could have the blood of this young man on his hands. He deceived him about the severity of his sin.

I actually took his words, word for word as they were recorded and I was able to be perfectly accurate. www.trunews.com played Mr. Stanley on a break and I was able to go over it accurately. I would submit to you that the vast majority of Christians do not challenge the words of the teachers. Actually almost never. Mr. Stanley gives so very much of his own opinions, you and I cannot judge his words as we are told to do. As I listened to his recording, I sensed in my spirit something very wrong. I told the Lord I did not want to spend my time judging the preachers, but felt compelled to and slowly wrote exactly what he was saying. The words above tell the story. I am very sad about what has happened to most of the preachers. They are fair game when the teach false doctrines. Listen to any preacher. They will tell you what is most important. Their words or God's words. Just try counting. You will discover God has very little to say in the churches of today. We just do not know how far we have fallen. Do not look to man.
