Hope for Homosexuals (1 Corinthians 6) John MacArthur

[philarchuletta]

14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

Homosexual back when the bible was written had a different meaning.

I respect people's different opinions. However, I personally do not believe in a "cure" and I simply don't see how it's something that even should be "treated". If people are gay get let them be, if people are christians let them be. People live their life according to different beliefs and that's fine if it works for them. My problem is when it affects other people who simply don't share that belief and when people are treated as if they are less than others just because they are different.

@MrMsLisa I respect what you are saying, but what if someone's belief tells them to share what they have learned with others? Should they still live their life according to their belief? Because then they would have to affect other people. Christians make an effort to share their beliefs with others, because we have been given grace to be forgiven of our sin, and it is so amazing we want to share it so others can experience the same grace that we have, we share out of love, and it is our duty.

[MrMsLisa]

@cgergs It's diffucult to discuss issues when it's based on someone's belief since there are no arguments that can change that. I see what you mean, however, my problem is when people view their belief as above everyone else's. I have my belief and you have yours and that's fine. I just hope that one's freedom of being who they are, believe what they want and feel about themselves will not get hurt because they haven't "seen the light".

God Bless you John! Lost Homosexuals feel forgotten and hated by the church but desperately want to know the Lord! Your message on Homosexuality will save many souls! Speaking as one that has been washed of this sin this verse has comforted me through many difficult times! There is hope. Jesus does love the sinner but not the sin. Just as I hated my sin. My flesh and heart may fail me at times but God is my strength. Thank you Lord Jesus for my salvation!

The state I live in (NY) just legalized Gay Marriage.....its somewhat ironic I suppose that I'm hearing this now. Thank you for all your advice/input John MacArthur; and thank you for basing it off of what the Bible says, not just yoru own opinion/interpretation. Praise God for His work in people's lives. :D
