To begin with.. I have yet to see a Christian homosexual no offense.. Although I have seen many gay priest from the Catholic Faith. Second in Christianity we are to walk alongside Christ and throughout the Bible it shows GODS Anger against idolatry and as it state's through one verse our LORD GOD makes mention of throwing the corpses of idolaters in front of their statues to show they will not save them. Also Peter was an Apostle but catholics believe in popes, bishops etc yet again contradicting the doctrine of GODS WORD AND LAW. I will be back and forth so anybody reading this please be patient with me but even in the Ten Commandments it does say thou shalt not make any graven images from the earth beneath, the sky above not the sea below. BUT keepin mind those ten commandments are the basic laws.. Beginners laws technically because If you stop and read the Old Testament and the New Testament you will in fact see many many commandments based on GODS WISDOM. It is undeniable the way you will experience life if you follow it as we all should. Does this make me a Saint? That's another difference.. Catholics jump to a voting system although honestly I am not too familiar with their deep traditions but They give titles of Sainthood. Not so.. First let me establish I am a sinner but like Jesus said, he is here for the sinners not those already saved. So my battle is daily and I am trying to succeed like Apostle Paul who said he crucifies himself and does daily.. I have wonderful days then days of failure but I'm grateful our FATHER GOD is patient and his anger is only for a while. If I cannot forgive another then surely he will not forgive me. Going back to my original comment.. Saints in the Christian Bible are those of us who follow GOD through Christ because If we do not accept the Sin our FATHER will not accept us. Saints are at Church doing GODS WILL and not the will of man. The Bible says what is good in the eyes of man is NOT good in the eyes of GOD. We all sin but we sin differently.. The Bible teaches to help each other is brothers and sister's. Like Jesus said who is my mother, brother, sister.. Those who do the will of our FATHER. Even more So GOD loves even the most wicked so we must always pray for MERCY for others as well as for ourselves.. Especially enemies. After all Jesus said what reward have we to love those who love us in return? Everybody has good and evil and with a good or bad day things happen.. We need more unity but like Jesus said he did not come to bring peace but the sword which is the WORD of GOD. IT WILL CAUSE DIVISION as Jesus said it would. If you read the WORD of GOD IT says GOD will expose the truth to some and hide it from others. That's where the division shows. Going back to baptism.. Innocence is GODS so youth will go to heaven but even as our Lord Jesus did.. Being the Son of GOD already Blesses went to John the Baptist to be baptised and keep in mind Jesus baptises with water and fire. But John being a humble

... Being humbled could not understand and said to Jesus why need ye baptism from me. When it is I that need baptism of you. Jesus responds saying let us fulfill all righteousness and they did so. Only then did the clouds open and a dove descended from the sky where GOD spoke and said this is my son in whom I am very well pleased. Consider that.. We have a spiritual baptism a rebirth and I know because I went through it. It is Beautiful.. But as a Christian being ready to as Jesus said take up our cross and follow him.. We must be baptised in his name.. This baptism is our dedication to him in life. A child will not carry such a heavy burden (the cross) which is as Paul again said dying daily and doing GODS WILL.. Not our own. We must deny ourselves first as Jesus did say..

One more thing.. Revelations it has a list of sinners sharing the lake of fire, Revelations 21:8 says " But the fearful, and unbelieving, and abonimable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and IDOLATERS, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which Burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death."

Catholics don't read Bibles but They are told what to think meanwhile contradicting the WORD OF GOD.. I know I was raised a Catholic. I am not angered but like the temple Jesus took out a whip to protect the seal Of the house.

God is a loving God, but we need to understand that He is also a God of justice and judgment. There is only one thing that God hates — sin.
-
It is not judgment when the Bible says it's wrong,! It's a fact! Being gay is wrong, wrong, wrong!
-
What a lot of judgemental comments here! Doesn't surprise me, as some "religious" people are the most critical on this planet. Jesus told us to love Him and to love one another - simples.................

When Jesus died on the cross...He died for all sinners, past and present, gay or not, black or white...FOR EVERY BEING HE CREATED! God is Love and He will not forsake us! For Jesus has saved us all! On the Cross He said:"It is done" ! So be joyfull...we will all experience Jesus' Grace in our afterlife:) His Love is far greater than we can ever imagine! Jesus is Grace, and we live by Grace...not the ten commandments! So just be thankful and tell the good news to those around us! He who knows love, knows God for God IS LOVE!! blessings to everyone!

The bible was written by Falange men with an agenda some 40 to 50 years after Jesus left this life. There are many good lessons but we cannot say for sure IT was written with HIS complete approval. I say this as a THOROUGH believer in HIM.
