07/26/14 SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT...
(this post is not about homosexuals, it is about those who are now advocates of homosexuality as a viable Christian lifestyle).

OK, we all know that I accept the Biblical revelation that homosexuality is sin, for which people can (and must) be forgiven, and from which people can (and must) be delivered, if they are going to be Bible believing Christians.

AND, we also know that more people are accepting/promoting (advocating) homosexuality these days as a viable Christian option.

SO, let me ask this question. Are these new advocates of homosexuality holding the homosexuals to a standard of not having sex with anyone, other than their "married partner," and are they holding the homosexual "couples" to the standard of one "husband" with one "wife" for a lifetime? After all, this is the standard that God requires of heterosexual couples.

NOW, you may say, "Yes, but some heterosexual couples also fail in these standards." This is true, BUT, that does not change the standard of God. In fact, if heterosexual couples do not live by God's standards, then the guilty party or parties are not Christians, since a person cannot be living in sin (adultery, fornication) and still be a Christian. Those who do not live by God's standards are sinners.

THEREFORE, even if the advocates want to call a practicing homosexual (or a homosexual couple), "Christian," the advocate should at least hold the homosexuals to the same Biblical standards as heterosexual couples, concerning separation from sex outside of marriage and commitment to marriage for a lifetime.

HOWEVER, whatever society says, and what the homosexual subculture generally practices, and allows into their lives, is contrary to such standards.

IN FACT, you might be surprised to find out that homosexuals generally do not subscribe to one partner for one life time and they generally do not restrict sexual activity to the partner they are with.

NO, I do not believe that such "couple" loyalty sanctifies a homosexual relationship. I am just pointing out that the argument for "Christian homosexual couples" breaks down for most homosexuals, even if we don't condemn homosexual behavior. Therefore advocates must at least call the homosexual a sinner (a non-Christian) if he does not live by the Biblical standards of abstinence and lifetime monogamy.

My point is, those who advocate for the un-Biblical life of homosexuality are not likely to condemn the homosexual for violating other moral codes of God. I am just trying to get a little honesty introduced to the subject. The problem is not only a matter of people approving of homosexuality, it is that people are rejecting God's rule over their lives.
