Glry2Gd. I agree with you scripture is watered down a lot these days in the politically correct world we live in.
I also agree scripture is twisted and turned to support ones own position in churches today.
Do you not think when Jesus was at the well with the prositute he hated her sins just like the gay persons sins? Yet didn't he still love them both? Not their sin? Jesus spoke to that prostitute at the well and she understood she needed to change her lifestyle. She understood she had been living in darkness.
According to what Lous was saying that man changed his lifestyle also. So didn't Jesus speak to him also? Didn't he forgive his sins also?
I know God never loved the party lifestyle I use to live. Yet, he still could love me not my sins. Are we not to be Christ like?
