Lev. 18:22, "You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination."
Lev. 20:13, "If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltness is upon them"
1 Cor. 6:9-10, "Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, 10nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God."
Rom. 1:26-28, "For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, 27and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. 28And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper."
Homosexuality is clearly condemned by the Bible. It goes against the created order of God. He created Adam and then made a woman. This is what God has ordained and it is what is right. Unlike other sins, homosexuality has a severe judgment administered by God Himself. This judgment is simple: They are given over to their passions. That means that their hearts are allowed to be hardened by their sins (Romans 1:18ff). As a result, they can no longer see the error of what they are doing. Without an awareness of their sinfulness, there will be no repentance and trusting in Jesus. Without Jesus, they will have no forgiveness. Without forgiveness, there is no salvation.
So....what the gays are trying to say is that because there aren't long lines at homeless shelters...it is okay for them to be gay?
It is a Fact that Christian , conservatives give way more money than any other group . Liberal demorats don't give their money they give everybody else's money .
If there was only 1 food bank or homeless shelter, it may in fact occur. It wouldn't be provocative news would it? How many people go to church on Saturday and Sunday and contribute to the poor and homeless? This is the captioner's opinion based on an obviously pre-conceived notion. Nothing more.
I don't know about other places but I know of Three homeless shelters in Salisbury. One is behind Giant, there is also the Christian Shelter and The Joseph House. I know in the winter time that many churches have sheltered homeless men. Each church takes a week and helps them with food, shelter and basic things that they need. Are there non religious shelters available?
this is about traditional family values and freedom of speach.
as far as the "picture" and "comments" on the picture, this is from someone who clearly doesn't give and help others through their church; where Jesus said for us to share what we have with those in need, especially widows and orphans.
my, my how did we get so far away from this direction given by God? if you will go back in history worldwide you will see very clearly that Christians were and are the ones who started such organizations as the Salvation Army, the Red Cross, hospitals and many other philanthropic organizations. for the most part Christians have always been givers, not takers. these ministries weren't started by those who didn't or don't love God. go figure. oh well, i think you get my drift...
That is because true Christians do not brag about their service to others. This was more in support of freedom of speech AND Christianity. Cathy said nothing that was garnered with hate, only his philosophical belief of marriage. The interviewer knew exactly what Cathy would say, and knew exactly the reaction of the public.
Chick-Fil-A is Christian business; they are closed on Sundays so their employees can attend church; and people are "shocked" to discover they are taking a stand against gay marriage?! I fully support Chick-Fil-A and share their views. It's about time Christians stand up for what's morally right.
I completely agree in this way: I find it disgusting that groups who call themselves Christians raise and spend millions of dollars fighting gay marriage when those millions of dollars would be much better spent on better causes, feeding the homeless, helping children in need, so many charities out there that could use that money, yet they spend their millions on this........and Chicfila is a good example...they donate millions to gay marriage? They have millions of dollars laying around and they can't think of a better cause to support? Isn't there another cause that could use their donations more? It seems selfish and not very Christian to me. Same thing applies to campaign money, ugh. Money wasted.
I say we need to follow EVERY thing the bible says and not just on the gays. Lets start with enforcing the last line of Leviticus 19:19 "'Do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material. We can boycott Sears, Walmart, etc and the stone those people that break this law. We will make sure all gays wearing clothing of mixed material are stoned first.
To 6:28PM learn the Bible before you try to say something is not in the Bible. Matthew 25:35: For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in;
12:50, This is the very first time and very first comment I have read about this whole Chick-fil-a thing that states what you state! You're saying that CFA actively raises millions and spends it somehow on "fighting gay marriage"? Where? How? I did notice the prayer jar there, where folks write their issues on a scrap of paper or take one out and pray for that person (no money involved there). I missed the "Fight Gay Marriage" jar, though. Please be more specific as to exactly what organizations receive money from CFA to "fight" gay marriage. This is totally new to me. I'll wait right here today.
The church I attaned does a food drive regularly, we rotate with other churches to house the homeless, and work at a local food kitchen and then we also donate a portion of funding to varous places that help the homeless, poor and hungry. I also know that this is true with many of the other local churches, so this isn't a fair statement or true. As far as gays, I'm not passing judgement, I stood up for the fact that chick-fil-A holds a certain value and belief and when challeged they we viewed as bigots when had any spcial interest group did the same it would have been considered freedom of speech and their right to hold a certain belief? What is this world coming to? Why don't we just tell the truth Christians are the target here.
Wow, you people are loony! Internet just makes your craziness more obvious to others. It's so amazing to read how clueless and brainwashed adults can be in 2012 and in US out of all places. Thanks for the entertainment.
What gives you the right to decide which charity or cause an individual or company supports? It isn't your money so why should you get a say in what they decide to do with THEIR money.
Whatever charity or cause you contribute to is just fine with me even if I don't support or agree with your choice. Because it's your money or time and its none of my business.
I support ChickFilA's right to operate their company as they see fit but I think the meme has a good point. It would be nice if some of that interest and money was directed towards local homeless shelters and food banks.
5:08, you are such a bigoted person! You claim that you know all the rules, and you seem to know all about what "God" wants because you read it in a book that was written by a bunch of lunatics 2000 years ago. The world and the people of this planet are evolving every single day, and we need to be more accepting of new ideas. What would a gay marriage do to affect you directly? Why do you care?

The usual hate and attacks the gays like to use when they don't get their way.
ReplyDeleteHey, I just realized why Jim acts the way he does now.
Ever notice they say the Bible, Jesus, God, etc., is all a fairy tale until they think they can use it to beat someone over the head with it?
You gays should just stfu and cut your losses. Or keep digging the hole deeper.
Don't matter to me and I really don't care.
I'm glad everyone took a stand and showed you fockers how sick and tired of it we all are. (if I can speak for anyone else)
So go kiss your bf/gf and go eat at McDonald's or something.
I wouldn't want you to have to endure so much hate at CFA.
Jesus spoke to me.
ReplyDeleteHe said to go forth and fight the perversion of homosexuality.
It destroys the very fabric of life.
Procreation.
I can hear his voice now.
"eat more chikin, eat more chikin eat more chikin."
It is a Fact that Christian , conservatives give way more money than any other group . Liberal demorats don't give their money they give everybody else's money .
ReplyDeleteWhat homeless shelter and food bank did Jesus volunteer at in the bible? Loaves and fishes day doesn;t count as we can't do the miracle thing!
ReplyDeleteJesus never said no such thing. Feeding and housing people to lazy to work is mans idea to make himself feel good.
ReplyDeletea man can not have babies..so how do u gays feel that its normal?
ReplyDeleteIf there was only 1 food bank or homeless shelter, it may in fact occur. It wouldn't be provocative news would it?

ReplyDeleteOh thank you so much for explaining that to all of us.
You must be really sensitive to be on the same brain wave-length as the original poster to know exactly what he meant.

5:08 Now explain if God is against homosexuality, why are there homosexuals. Do you think homosexuality is a choice?
ReplyDeleteActually that's who you do see lined up to help people ...Christians. Leave it to the left to use this to attack a specific religion.
ReplyDelete12:50 - And you know how much MORE goes to 'good' charities??
ReplyDeleteSaving this country from the liberal ideal of do whatever you like regardless of the eternal consequences is a waste of money??
a few of the comments on this topic tell me there are "cafeteria" christians here.
ReplyDeleteread the whole council of God; precept upon precept. read for edification, correction, and instruction.
God called us to be "salt and light". as christians we are to live out both. salt is a preservative and light to show the way.
if you're not a christian or you're a "cafeteria" christian you'll never get it.
Alex you seem intolerant of people who have different beliefs.
