First of all, like, I never said that sin was okay. I never stated that nobody should go out and spread the word of Jesus. I said that nobody has the right to judge. End of story. The quote from Matthew 7 is talking about sinning while telling others not to sin, correct? I don't understand how my statements contradict the passage. Perhaps you could enlighten me, since you seem to know what you are talking about?

You actually did say that.

To judge, in the sense of as it is used in the New Testament, is referring to telling people that they are going to Heaven or going to Hell, if they are good or evil


To summarize: "Nobody can tell anyone that they are screwing up without being a hypocrite."

Your post also basically said that It doesn't matter that Being Gay isn't Ok, christians have no right to say anything about it.

The Passage in Matthew I quote refers specifically to criticizing someone for a specific problem when you yourself have that problem to a much greater degree. To quote the actual example, Criticizing your Brother for having a splinter in his eye when you yourself have a log in yours, and it does specifically forbid Even mentioning the problem to the person. It cannot be applied to sin in general, since it is the Duty of christians to uphold God's law in the church.

Although, I do agree that without converting an individual, Correcting their sins does them no good other than familiarizing them with God's expectations of them.

That means what it says.

Christians have an obligation to try and convert and explain what is right and wrong by Christian means. They have no right to say that someone is going to Hell. I am specifically trying to argue that Christians are too quick to judge nowadays and do not fix their own sins before spouting out something they should be saying in the first place. People who claim to be Christian at the White House using a megaphone to shout "You're all going to Hell!" at the supporters for gay marriage is not Christian-like at all. I cannot see what you are arguing here, sorry.

The Church now accepts The LGBT community as long as they accept God.


The true church of the New Testament does not accept the LGBT community. The church is the kingdom of God and is referred to as the bride of Christ. Members of the church are people who have repented of their sin and have been baptized for forgiveness. Members of the church are obedient servants of God.

Hebrews 10:26 says "For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins" The church is composed of people who have accepted the gift of Christ. If you sin willfully then you have not repented and the sacrifice of Christ is not working for you. Homosexuality is a sin (Romans 1, 1 Corinthians 6) and continuing in it and embracing it is sinning willfully.

Denominations are rejecting the true word of God and forming their own false ideas and opinions. They are not nor do they represent the true Church. If a person accepts God then they will not condone any sin.

I don't know why you aren't getting it, but let me lay it out as simply as possible:

It is only sinful to say "You are going to hell" if it is in a condemning manner. If you are simply telling someone what the consequence of not accepting Jesus is, it is perfectly fine to tell them that they will go to hell if they don't.

That is the only real Objection I had to what you originally said, other than your post seeming to in general defend homosexuality.
