What is it with fundy Christians and their inability to understand how punctuation works?
To get back to your question, it's a point of interpretation:
The Wholly Babble Wrote:Rev 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
The "abominable" may be a reference to homosexuals. This interpretation is supported by the other references in the Bible to homosexuality as an abomination.
The Holey Babble Wrote:Lev 18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
1 Kings 14:24 And there were also sodomites in the land: and they did according to all the abominations of the nations which the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.
