To my well meaning brothers,
The reason why there is so much room for debate and argument in most of your positions of Homosexuality is because you are trying to preach from a position of authority and personally back righteousness. All of which is deeply founded in a denominationally specific take on scripture. These arguments do not work,
they only spawn rebuttals. Because they have been studied and broken down many times over. They will not work because there has been enough doubt built into the rebuttals to side track the debate. They don't need to win the argument, they only need to bog it down. so I ask why not try something else? Why not instead of addressing Homosexuality as a segregated sin, address it as any other sin. Is it not good enough that unrepentant homosexuality will receive the same hell as if we treated it as any other sin?
Instead of holding to the pride and righteousness that accompanies one when he calls another to a public repentance, why not simple and humbly show the sin for what it is. Do not elevate yourself or your sins above your potential homosexual brothers. Remove the idea that you are in the right, and are going to show those, in the wrong how to become right. There is no Right and Wrong. There is only wrong, and redeemed wrong doers. No one is good or right, only forgiven. Being forgiven is not the same as have never chosen to be outside the will of God. Forgiven is having the times you have indeed Chosen to be outside of God's will wiped clean. Acknowledging this Give Glory to God and his grace, rather than it being a testament to one's own self righteousness. Those outside of the church see this and label it hypocrisy. They do not know the gift and glory of salvation through redemption because we tend to only represent our own versions of righteousness. This righteousness can been seen through a mile away. This is what fuels the need less controversies. It is not spite for God. It is spite for what has been labeled Christian Hypocrisy.
If we approach those who do not yet seek forgiveness as a fellow seeker, rather than aperson who commands authority over another, less can be said in the way of argument. As it is there are those here who only wish to argue, and have devoted themselves, to all of the verses and arguments that people of church bring to speak against what they hold dear.
So let go of the need to segregate this sin or hold it over people as if it were a greater sin than the gossip or lies we are all guilty of. Simply establish the sinful nature of this act by directly quoting scripture. or if they refuse to accept what the bible openly says, then break homosexuality down to it's base components. (Sex outside of an unsantified marriage.) Make it a simple sin, that one needs to find repentance for. Show them that you sin and you need repentance too.
This will quickly separate those who argue just to argue, and those who seek God's truth. Shake the dust from your feet and leave those who look to justify their actions. rather, look to those who want to find forgiveness and show them the way.
The Sin of Homosexuality, like the arguments against it, is first about Pride. If you wish to leave a legacy of endless debate, and foolish controversy, then pick up your pride and your bible and just see how God honors your efforts. If you can first humble yourselves to God and ask the Spirit to teach you as He has taught others to speak to those who are in this sin, not to win debates, but to win over lost souls (Like you were) I promise you will see a different result in how God responds to your efforts.
This weighs down those who are already heavy-laden with a further burden; no wonder many leave the Churches & the Christ they speak for, or commit suicide.
