Ugh! God NEVER says that by simply obeying the Ten Commandments that you'll go to Heaven!He says that if you just accept Him and believe in only Him, then you will get to go to Heaven. Read your Bible once in awhile instead of just miss inturpreting popular verses you see on Facebook.

Let's see, god said follow the ten commandments and you'll be brought to heaven. The commandments say nothing about being gay is wrong. God said be amazing people with passin and love..., yet there are stories in the bible about how your suppose to stone people... Please tell me how those two can go together. god said love EVERYONE as you want to be loved... People just made this theory up that being gay is wrong.

Six days may work be done, but on the seventh is the Sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD. Whosoever doeth any work on the Sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.

Exodus 31:15

I work on sunday does it mean christians are going to kill me?

Romans never says being gay is wrong, it does say that men who LUST, notice the word LUST, after other men is wrong, JESUS never says being gay is wrong, So if im not lusting after MY BOYFRIEND than i am ok. Technially dating is wrong, spending the night at someones house who you arent married to IS WRONG, lying stealing, cheating, disobeying ALL wrong also it says "judge not yet ye be judged" now you judge me for homosexualtiy and it turns out to be "wrong" you will also be judge

its simple, hanging out with gay people will make you gay. Just like hanging out with tall people will make you tall. 

[AMC2283]

let's say the bible does say gays are sinners, hate them. So does that mean if--just for the sake of argument--the bible said love all people as family, regardless of sexual orientation, you would be kind to gays? Or could it be that you're just a homophobe and you hate gay people?

Beautifully done. Great video.  I hope more people watch this.

Leviticus 18 HAS BEEN MISINTERPRETED. Moses was addressing Shine Prostitution not gay people. The canaanites prayed to a god called Molech. They would sacrifice their children and have sex with male shine prostitutes called Quedesh. They believed it gave them fertility in life. The word Abomination comes from the hebrew word Toevah which referred to Idolatry. God in the bible has always detested Pagan worship. Verses 21 and 22 of Leviticus 18 are related. Please learn the truth!

@FaithfulWarrior89 I agree!

The part about the homosexual being put to death, keep in mind that Leviticus is the old testament. First off all it says in the 10 commandments, thou shall not kill. In John 8:7, Jesus said, "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone." So if somebody is executed because of their sins, the person doing the executing is condemning themselves. They are just as much of a sinner as the other person is.
