Unanswered questions

[Drich]

Leviticus plainly states that if a man lies with another man, it is an abomination. If Jesus did away with the law of Moses, how is this still an abomination, as the NT after the Gospels+Acts tries to put forth? I think this was one of my questions that you never answered, Drich. You gave me some passages to look over, swell, but you seemed to think that your justification in Cherry Picking gave you permission to glaze over my concern that I posited at you. You do believe the Law of Moses was put away, don't you?

Maybe it's just too tough to answer because who in their right mind can make complete sense of a book full of contradictions and lies?

There are two primary question here.

One how can one consider homosexual sex a sin if one simply ignores all of the passages in the new and old testament that comdemn it as a sin.

Two, Has the OT law been nullified.

Answer 1) Even if you silence the bible and somehow justify ignoring ALL of the dozen or so passages that outright say Homosexuality is a out right sin. You still do not have a santified pretext in which Homosexual sex is permitted.

In short ALL Sex is considered a sin outside a santified Marriage. According to Christ in Mat 5 even the thought of it is a sin if your not married to the woman your thinking about.
This INCLUDES Homosexual sex. Because the bible Does NOT allow for a Santified Marriage between Man and another Man or woman and another woman, all same sex sex is considered a sexual sin. One like any other.

(The reason I did not answer you is because I've already pointed this out sevedral times in this very thread.)

Answer 2) According to Paul and to Christ Himself ALL of the OT law is still in effect.

So, why don't we follow it as Christians? Because Christians do not derive righteousness before God (morality is the word most of you use/God will not find you moral) in following the Law. Because Paul and Christ agree that if you break the slightest command you are guilty of breaking all of the Law. so therefore one must seek a righteousness Greater than the righteousness/morality that comes from trying to obey the Law.

That is what attonement it. When one accepts the gift of attonement one puts on the righteousness (morality) of Christ. And before God, (concerning sin) we stand as pure as Christ stands pure.

I would really like to see your answer to the last post, just how do you decide, of all the almost infinite threads possible from "holy writings" which you believe to be the right one? BTW, do you believe the bible to be (forgot the term) absolutely and totally correct? Finally, I am new to the forum, but would certainly like to see you keep on giving your side of things, in fact maybe you could recruit some others willing to stand up for what they believe.

Not sure what you are asking.

How do I know the bible is correct?

Because in the bible God makes promises. If one does XYZ He will provide 123. I did YXZ and I got 123. It tried this with several other religions, and got nothing.
