Blank Stair
1 Peter 3:16
I'm going to step out of this thread now since I re-entered to see if eastcoast_bsc answered my query as to why they keep holding this woman's sins against her, when God has forgiven her them.

You have to be repentant. Gays marrying isn't repentance. Also, guess Jesus was kidding about blasphemy against the holy spirit.There is NO sin capable of precluding a sinners entry into the Kingdom.
In point of fact, ONLY sinners get to enter into the kingdom.
And again I'll point out, she cashes her paycheck every week, including the portion paid for by active practicing homosexuals in her constituency, and has no moral objection to profiting off their sinful state.
I don't agree with what Davis is doing because it's fruitless. She's really just giving ammo.
But at the same time, I take notice to something else:
How do you expect that Christianity can accomplish anything if Christians always sink their teeth into other Christians? Newsflash: this is why homosexual marriage became legal in the first place. Secular society has fooled itself with an idea that they reigned over Christian ideology, but Christians really just handed the ball to them. And then call those like that woman a hypocrite?
I think a mirror is in order.
It isn't a claim. No citation is required....
A Christian can claim they've entered into Holy Matrimony simply by foregoing the state issued marriage license and having a ceremony in the church that would agree to perform such a rite. But they're not legally entitled then to all the rights and privileges that come with the state issued contract of marriage.
In both the old and new testaments. You're not aware of those scriptures?
I am aware that Jesus Christ in the Flesh never spoke one word about it that was recorded in scripture.
Are you not aware that Jesus was God? Are you not aware of the Old Testament scripture wherein God condemned it? Are you not aware of the scriptures in the new testament that says those particular sinners committing to that sin will not see the kingdom of Heaven?
Are you not aware that Paul was led by Jesus and informed by the Holy Spirit to deliver God's testament to the Gentiles and the Jews?
These are things a self-identified Catholic should know.
I have heard several people, whose religion is Judaism, say that the word homosexuality isn't even in the original languages of the scriptures and that the word was added.
So I assume you don't eat shellfish or wear mixed fibers, and always cover your head in public and don't teach the scriptures in public, since GOD has condemned all of those things for you?

Correct.Not to mention speaking in church. As a woman, she isn't allowed to speak in church or have any kind of spiritual authority over men.
Lying is just as sinful as sodomy.
Leviticus never says homosexuality anyways. It says if a man lies with a man as with a woman. Homosexuality only appears in 1 Corinthians 6:9-10. Since when did Jews become experts in Greek? That or... Nevermind. They study Hebrew scriptures.I have heard several people, whose religion is Judaism, say that the word homosexuality isn't in the original languages of the scriptures and that the word was added.
Yeah, the bible says that God hates liars and that all liars will have their part in the lake of fire. Sounds pretty serious to me. These people act like sodomy is the only sin that God will judge. Never mind divorcing and remarrying, having an extramarital affair, having premarital sex, lusting after someone of the opposite sex, or even looking at inappropriate contentography. Oh, and there's more sins listed in the verse about all liars burning in the lake of fire. What about all of them? Oh wait... only homosexuality is the pet sin that truly matters.
"But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars--they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death." - Revelation 21:8

Where does Jesus say it's morally right to deny people their civil rights?
By your argument, since I think her beliefs are evil and she's a lousy Christian, I should be able to deny her religious freedom. She doesn't value the civil rights of others, so why should I value hers?
But She Cashes her paycheck every week, including the portion paid for from the taxes collected from the active practicing Homosexuals in her constituency, and she clearly has no moral objection to profiting of of them, while refusing to serve them equally.
THAT is the Hypocrisy that she should be asked to justify.... her past marriages, adulterous affairs, etc, are irrelevant.
I don't recall Jesus saying anything about civil rights one way or another. He seemed to be concerned with more important matters.
You clearly didn't understand my argument. The point is that she ought to understand that she doesn't need the law's permission to do what is right.
First, it doesn't follow that just because their tax dollars fund her paycheck that she ought to serve them equally. Second, the money ultimately comes from God.
She's right. That's all the justification hypocrisy needs.
In your life, do you follow the entire old testament?
