Is not the Word of God suffcient enough for you to teach people within your community? By leaving out the word of God you leave out Christ. John 1:14. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.True conversion comes from the same holy spirit which rose Christ from the dead. Men may abuse their authority in many churches nowdays, but that should'nt be a platform to market our own cause.

Tony Jones is listed as one of the people that are pushing this new doctrine at the church, that there is more than one way to heaven and that your can be a buddist and a christian. all for the UN NWO view of having a one world religion. He is with Rob Bell, Doug Paget, Ken wilber, Phylis Tickle Richard Foster, Benjamin creme. The list goes on, this is the thing that was taught us by Jesus to look out for.  Make a stand now christians, stand against this new watered down gospel

(8) were the manifestations of eh actions they displayed. In sodom the ppl were rebellious and corrupt in their thoughts, they were not like Adam (in the beginning) they were lazy, selfish and lacked a relationship with God and had no desire to cultivate the things of God.These mindsets led them to live a life, in all ways contrary to the will of God.We have to be careful not to add to the word of God, seek the interpretation of the word from God.

(7) reiterated by Jesus in Matthew 6:21,15:18-19. In ezekiel 16, before the issue of homosexuality is touched it lists the hearts of the ppl that led them to live a life contrary to the will of God, they were proud and pride came before even the first fall in heaven and on earth. Lucifer was full of pride, eve wanted to be like God without God, their innermost beings had already turned from God. Their treasures were self willed and self satisfying, the fruit of the condition of their hearts

(6) wanted the angels, Lot did not comdemn their desire for sex, he condemned the fact that they wanted to have sex with another man, we know this because Lot then offered his daughters, a similar story is seen in judges 19. The Bible is not primitive or outdated because the truths in the Bible never ceases to be true or lose their relevance and the author never changes; as long as God stands His moral law stands.Even exodus 20:17 talks about taking another mans wife and ezekiel 16:49-50 was

(5) God commanded Adam and eve to multiply. God being in control, could have sustained mans population even if there was no death, so theres no reason to believe that atime would have come where God would have had to say "okay, marry but don't reproduce anymore", homosexuality contradicts that command . Ppl who believe the verses about homosexuality are in the context of abuse based on the culturen need to then explain what culture was there in the garden of Eden? Even in sodom, when the men

(4)God wants us as ppl to be joined as one body of christ, children of God with Him as our Father and when we marry the one God has designed for us what we lack they bring to our lives. When confronted with divorce,Jesus went back to the beginning because it ws in teh beginning we can see the will of God and the reason why things were going wrong and causing ppl to want to divorce. The pharisees were calling something that was not marriage in the sight of God marriage,thats why it wasn't working

(3) a physical mother and father and yet from the relationship he had with God, in his spirit came "a man shall leave his mother and father and be joined to his wife".Marriage was instituted by God as the foundation for procreation and it wasa demonstration of the Godhead and the kind of relationship we are to have with one another. The woman compliments the man.If you took ten men, removed one of their ribs and tried to put a rib into a different body it would not be complimentary, in the same
