Zeev's Turnips Talk Politics (ZTTP)

>>Let's suppose for a moment that the Church told you that you could accept Jesus Christ all right. But that to please God (really the Church) you needed to become a homosexual else you would be "sinning". Wouldn't that be bothersome to you? Wouldn't you want to study the subject out a bit to see if they were correct or incorrect in their interpretation of Scripture? Remember it is you who are telling THEM to change. They are not asking you to.

This is silly. When you become a Christian, you agree to change completely. You leave your old life of sin and live for God. "The old has passed away, the new has come". Christ commands us to deny ourself, take up our cross and follow Him. I am a completely different person now than I was 15 years ago, when Christ saved me in my early 20's. I gave up many things I treasured. I read the Bible and asked God to conform me to the image of His Son. I didn't look for loopholes to hang on to this or that favorite sin. I tried at first, but the Holy Spirit is relentless.

May the Holy Spirit be relentless in your life, convicting you of mishandling His word.
