    By God's word, we can say unrepentant sinners are barred from the Kingdom of Heaven.

    If they are not the elect and those practicing homosexuality that die in their sins obviously were not unfortunately.

    But how do you know if they are or are not numbered among the elect? Do you have a crystal ball or what?

    They're committing sins while expressing a lack of repentance.

    Lets say for arguments sake Evangelist that there was a "Former" Homosexual in that club that night trying to evangelize. How bout someone in there in the process of changing his or her sexual orientation to be straight ....or at least abstain from sin .... because of that evangelist! And they get mowed down.

    Let me ask you something......Is it more sinful to be a homosexual or a alcoholic? Guess I am asking you if you rank certain sins as more terrible than other sins.

    Lets go a little deeper Steve to a sin you don't see has anyone ever been guilty of this?... Brother Glen

    Matthew 5:27 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:

    5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

    That is the difference between you and me. I don't know, and I don't pretend to know.

    EWT did a pretty good job directing the discussion in the way I was going. Let's take it even a little farther. Suppose one of the people present had heard the gospel but did not respond. But he was thinking about it. He is lost. He is still committing the abominable sin. But next week or next month God will draw him to Himself and regenerate that man and he will understand, slowly, but surely, that his lifestyle is an affront to his Holy God. He will repent and live a godly life in Christ as well as he is able.

    Do you still think he deserves to die in that holocaust?
