Presbyterian Church Takes Steps Closer to *** and ******* Ordinations.

Warm and cozy?  Big and small?  Tall and short?  Meat and vegan? 

Oh really? Evil? No ***s in the Mormon church?  Why did your god create ***s if he doesn't like them?

God did not create Hom*s*x*als, their condition is a creation of their own mind.

Even under the guise of evolution it doesn't fly. Without a man and a woman,

there is no offspring. Without offspring a species dies off. And yes there are

all types of people in the LDS Church. Adulterers, Thieves, Cheats, Nudists,

Alcoholics and Addicts, and yes G*ys. The world is made up of all kinds, and so

is the LDS Church. Some are trying to repent, some are just hiding their deeds.

Those trying to change their ways are blessed by their Father in Heaven. Those

that are just hypocrites will someday have to answer at the judgment seat.

Skippy

Why answer someday? You're judging them now.

My judgment don't have quite the punch.

Skippy

Oh pftttttttttttttt.

You admitted to having ***s in your church. Using your logic, your church is evil.

Dear times daily admin.

G a y isn't a dirty word. even when used in referance to someone who is homosexual it's not a slur or an insult. homosexual people prefer the g word to many others, some of which ARE offensive to them... the F word for example. oddly enough tho a F a g is also a slang term in britian for a cigarette.

if we canot use g a y to refer to homosexuals, why are we allowed to use straight to refer to hetrosexuals? each refer to a lifestyle and sexual preferences, so if one is censored, the other should be as well.

g a y also means happy.. so we should filter out happy, joyous, glad and any other synonyn of the G word as well.

to filter out only that one word is discrimination, to prevent anyone refering to that lifestyle.

please slap the stupid out of who ever is in charge of the word filter.

No Jenn, the Church (LDS) does not condone their sins. It only wants to help

save the truly repentant.

The TD Forum's filter is more mindlessly Comstockian than ever was Johnny Carson's fictitious censor, Miss Priscilla Goodbody.

If the PCUSA does indeed accept practicing g*a*y clergy, you can look for a mass exodus from that body to  the more conservative Presbyterian Church in America.

Hi all,

It is one thing to welcome those in the homosexual lifestyle into our churches and fellowships; for that is the best place for them to learn God's Word and to find support in leaving the lifestyle. 

However, to have an active homosexual in a leadership role of a church or denomination is most certainly against the Word of God; for a person who is LIVING an active homosexual lifestyle -- CANNOT be a Christian believer.  

Why?  For the lifestyle, not the person, is an abomination to God.  So, if one is living a lifestyle which is an abomination to God; how can one say that he/she is a Christian LIVING the Christian lifestyle?   One cannot be a vegetarian and dine every night on steaks.   One cannot be a Christian -- and actively live the homosexual lifestyle.

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

It is about time that churches got off their high horses and quit judging people based on their sexual orientation.

GO Presbytarians!

Judging someone by their sexual orientation against their going to heaven is ugly, pure and simple.

Jesus never said anything about that, and neither should his so called followers.

Yes, Al,

We know.  It is against the teaching of your New Age Urantia Book bible.  Boy, you would preach anything to draw people away from Christianity and into your cult.   Sorry, my Friend, this is as wrong as all the rest of your New Age cult teachings.  You better run and consult with Shirley Maclaine or Oprah again.

But, good try.   I am sure the god of this world is pleased.

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

The best thing that could happen to bill would be for his daughter or son to be ***. That would take him down a notch or two.

they might be, or his grandkids.

thing is, bill would never admit it, even if they told him personally. it just wouldn't fit into his head.

things bill doesn't like, just don't make it into his brain. the very idea is blocked by the thick coat of SelfRightious Shellaq (pat.pend) he's poured into his head.

He's have to smack himeslf with a Shirley!

Billster:

God loves all people.  Homosexuals, Blacks, Whites, Asian and all things inbetween.

Amazingly, he even loves you.

That alone is irrefutable proof of the Love of God.

Everyone else however, thinks you are an a##hole.

Hi Al,

Yes, you are right.  God does indeed love all people, all His creation.  Yet, because both God's love and God's justice are perfect --  and because God gave all mankind the gift of "free will" -- not all people will be saved.

We are told in 2 Peter 3:9 that God is very patient toward us, not wanting anyone to perish; but, for all to come to repentance.

But, we are told in 1 John 5:12, "He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God DOES NOT have the life."

What is the "life" which this verse mentions?  It is eternal life in the presence of God.  What is the alternative?  Only hell.

John 3:16 tells us, "For God so loved the world (Al, Bill, Deep, Jennifer, all people), that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life."

So, based upon this verse, all who believe in Jesus Christ have eternal life.  All who do not believe in Jesus Christ shall perish!

Therefore, Al, this leaves no room for your cult Universalism teaching -- that all people will be saved.  That is NOT what the Bible  teaches.  It may be what your New Age Urantia Book bible teaches.  But, it is NOT what God's Written Word, His Bible, teaches.

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

Bill
