about being Gay? I am posting this in a few categories....Sorry so long. I just wanted to include more information.
So the LDS church (and many other churches) are against Gay relationships, and that would be gay marriages also. OK?
You claim that in Leviticus is say it is an Abomination to the Lord...
*There are several abominations in Leviticus 11: shellfish (verse 10), some birds (verses 13 to 20), and insects and other creeping things (verses 41 to 43). wearing mixed blended clothing....ETC.
LDS and "Christians" today don't think that eating shellfish is wrong.
There is a temptation to justify this with Acts 10:11-15...
But there would be many versus saying that you should love your neighbor as yourself, Note to treat other badly, etc...
ALSO have you heard what the Bible has said about women??
1. Deut. 22: 28-29
28 If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;
29 Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel’s father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his days.
NOTE this says...
*Really if he had "sexual relations" on a "virgin" he must marry her and pay the dad.
AND.....
1 Tim 2:10 11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
and
1 Cor. 14:34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.
( i do know that the temple endowment used to contain a wives obey your husband bit,but now a days it is different...)
Anyways, You can read more about the different kinds of "abominations" in detail, at the end of this webpage...http://www.inherit-the-kingdom.org/artic…
Leviticus 18 may actually be about idolatrous activity.
HAVE you read.... Does this not mean all PEOPLE? We are one?
Galatians 3:26-28
26.For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
27.For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
Note:
*28.There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
29.And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
So I am just saying why Pick and choose so often?
1.. WHY DON'T you take these other abominations to GOD literally?
2.How can something that was an abomination under the Law of Moses no longer be considered an abomination? Because we are no longer under the Law?
3. So WHY DO LDS leadership and other religious leaders pick and choose what to fight against?
WHY NOT follow these biblical, rules for women?
and fighting with Prop 8 and all...
4. Sure it may not be for you, (being gay), (same with gay people wanting to be straight)
but why let leaders speak for ALL? And ask for time and money to fight this?
*I just cant see how this is not extremely judgmental.... imo.
Can you answer 1,2, 3, and 4?
Thoughts from all?
Thank you...
