    Maybe, but what I was talking about was that effectively witnessing to LGBT people who are living sinful lives is to change your attitude and approach. "You're going to HELL you SICKOS!" is not an effective witnessing tool. Though I'm sure many on this forum believe it is. As someone who has spent time in LGBT spaces and around such people, they require a gentler, patient approach.
    LGBT people have heard the gospel more times than you or I can count, so it's not a lack of that that is the issue. Many grew up in Christian homes and very thrown out by their parents, so have experienced trauma at the hands of those who claim Christianity.

    Anyways, he's just butthurt because I'm biromantic and call myself that.

    If I had a question about the subject I would ask.

    No assumptions required. I see the “LBG” community brainwashing children daily. I am one of the people undoing and teaching against them.

    We must get to the Biblical balance on this issue, as one extreme to avoid is that all in that lifestyle are already going to burn in hell period, and also avoid that teaching that God understands and fully accepts as normal alternate lifestyles as long as really "love each other"

    We do see a lot of that happening now a days, as in my example of Drag Queens on full display reading to small kids in libraries!

    I never once said otherwise. But it requires a gentle approach, and, again, a patient one. Sometimes people become more open to change over time, and with godly examples. They don't respond well to "in your face and preachy" attitudes.

    I can assure you that I am not “butthurt” by you or your homosexual ways.

    But I’d say there’s someone who isn’t too happy about you preaching on His name and against his blessings at the same time.

    Best be repenting for your wicked ways and getting right with the Lord. Instead of flaunting your sinful homosexual ways to others online.

    Again the Bible is clear on the homosexual ways.

    That I'm not sure what my position is. I think I by and large agree with Mrs Blaire White, here, at least:
    Blaire isn't Christian, but she has some balanced thoughts and is politically conservative

    Jesus Himself would treat them same way He did the woman caught in adultery, forgiveness, but with the command to stop sinning in that fashion!

    Jesus has the authority to issue commands, we don't. That doesn't mean we don't tell the truth, but it does mean we be patient.

    BTW, if you're ever attracted to anyone but your wife, you're an adulterer. Repent you filthy adulterer, and revoke your Christianity until you do! :Biggrin

    He chimed in and brought that garbage to the table. I didn’t go it asking for all the homosexuals to raise their hands.

    Anyways, I've got to go get dressed so I can dress like a flamboyant gay man and read books at the library to kids! ......oh wait.
    Actually, I'm just a cashier at a grocery store. I wear a fox pin on my shirt. Hopefully you can come through my line and getcho groceries checked out by the local biromantic asexual woman :)

    Difference in being attracted to others and lusting for another in your heart.

    No doubt about lusting for others in your heart. Christ Jesus already cleared that one up for us.

    I’ll pray that the good Lord helps clear up your mind and helps you find what your looking for. Don’t work too hard. Nice talking with you. My apologies if I offended you, I have a pretty radical view towards the current homosexual environment in our country

    How is it that you suddenly understand this concept when I explained it several posts ago?
    So you do get it, at least to some degree. I am attracted to the same sex, that does not mean I lust after them or that I condone lusting. Finally, we understand each other :)
