Help prevent gay adoptions in FL

Why do you refuse to listen to the fact that noone is disagreeing about homosexuality being sin?

Yes homosexuality is sin. Yes it displeases God, but no more than any other unrepentant sin.

God gives us all the choice of whether to follow him or not. It's called free will. Those who choose not to follow him, will be sentenced to hell.

Do you have even one non-Christian friend? Are they terrible human beings just because they are not Christians?
What is the thread? Gay adoption? You stand for gay adoption. As a Christian that is what is unbelievable! I expect that from an unbeliever, but from a Christian??
If you condone it you are just as guilty as the sinner!
Do you understand?
1Corinthians5:11-13
But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a BROTHER, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolator, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner not even to eat with such a person.
For what have I to do with judging those also who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside?
But those who are outside God judges. Therefore put away from yourselves the evil person.

Your treading on thin ice my friend by condoning this idea, of gay adoption. Either your for God or against Him. Homosexuality is an ABOMINATION to God! God destroyed whole cities because of this, but you want these people to be able to adopt?? God forbid!!!

Unfortunately you fall into a broad category. You believe that everyone who does not hate everyone except for Christians is totally against God. Plus they could not possibly be saved.

That is actually not an uncommon point of view. However it is a SAD point of view.

Plus that mode of thinking is undeniably arrogant, with the (if you don't agree with me you are not a Christian at all) attitude. Pride is a sin, too you know.

I never said I hated anyone! It's suprising when you bring something like this up, automatically your accused of hating people. What is Sad is your stubborness in submitting to God's word! You keep on saying oh!, homosexuality is a sin, but then you turn around and defend a perverted lifestyle! If you are a Christian then whose glory do you seek man's or God's??? Stand up for the will of God!

I can not speak for anyone else but myself.

I know homosexuality to be a sin. It is abhorent to God. But nowhere does it say to treat all sinners as second(no..third) class citizens, because they are sinners.

Sooner or later you will get the point I have been saying all along, which is this:
Just because they are sinners, does not give us the right to treat them badly and as inferior to us.

Do you treat all sinners badly and talk down to them, as if they are nothing? If so, how do you have a successful witness?

No, but you would sacrifice innocent children for the "rights" of gays? How do you witness when you water down God's word?? I have no bones to pick with the unbeliever. We were all once unrepentant sinners, lost. However there are those that give themselves the title "Christian". But they are more concerned in what man thinks instead of what God thinks! Again I implore you, stand up for God!

Unfortunately, Tyler, you sure can talk. However, you have no idea how to truly listen.

Listen to who? You or God??? Open your eyes my friend, as a Christian, you are bound to defend the innocent and the weak, but here you are defending the immoral and the oppressor! Do you really think God will stand for anyone that helps in these Gay adoptions? Lord help us!

Why do you refuse then to listen to God's word? Do I have to show you again in scripture that what you are defending sickens God? My word counts for nothing, if you say who you are, then you would listen to God's word. Why be so stubborn towards the will of God? If I put conditions on people then it would not mean a thing because I am a nobody. However you refuse to listen to scripture, Now That's Sad!


Its not gods word that he does not listen to its your word. I find it offensive that you continue to say that your words are one in the same.

2Thessalonians2:9-12
The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, AND LYING WONDERS.
and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
And for this reason GOD will send them STRONG DELUSION, that they should believe the lie,
that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but HAD PLEASURE IN UNRIGHTEOUSNESS.

No, I do not understand. To YOU, sympathy for someone's rights is the same as supporting them.

Why are both AUTOMATICALLY the same thing?

Do not answer me with verses about how God says it is wrong. We ALL know that already.

I want to know where, in the Bible, Jesus treats sinners like scum. Can't name one single instance, can you?

I am going to say this one more time. I am NOT supporting their lifestyle. I am supporting their right to NOT be treated as lower beings, just because they are sinners. That is not the Christian way to treat anyone, or to win them to Christ.

I am standing up for God and Jesus. The same Jesus who had dinner with sinners, and associated with outcasts.

That is the way I believe we should be. Prove to me that Jesus did not do those things, when they are recorded in the Bible.

It is better to pray the LORD by all FAITH to change the hearts and minds of men no matter they care not for it than to live by the laws of men(Go ask Saul what is possible). For men will say one sin is worse than another and by law to punish accordingly, yet the LORD sees all sin the same....better to live by the laws of GOD>and neither do men rasie the dead, walk on water or even remit sin....for they have not so much as a wits worth of faith, nay but they have traded such for technology and live accordingly and come to HIM at it's failing only. Shame on men who did not first seek the kingdom of heaven. And so my LORD said do you think I will find faith when I return? And i promised HIM, HE would amen.

I go in peace

Tyler..You must separate the sin from the sinner. But you are right, no one should accept sin as an alternative lifestyle. The future looks bleak. The media is being bombarded with lies. I spoke with a High School teacher the other day. I did not bring up the subject. But she told me that teen girls were becoming bi-sexual. It was open and in your face. Not just one or two...but close to 1/3 of her students.
Bi-sexual...I do not think the "born with it" argument applies here. It does not take adoption to destroy the children. Turn on the TV...It is cool now to be a lesbian.

Knowing that this is the wave of the future...I searched the Internet trying to console myself. But story after story about homosexuals, were anything but happy. It should not have surprised me. When you try to separate your life on Earth from the will of God...You are setting yourself up for disappointment. Also they spoke over and over about all the friends that they have lost from aids.

So now I am even more confused. Can they be good parents?

(1) Can gays have inner peace? Are many of them deeply troubled people? How can we see the turmoil in their souls that comes from wrestling with God.

(2) There is more to raising a child then physical comforts. Can a child's emotional needs be met, never having a mother? Or... Can a child's emotional needs be met, never having a Father?

(4) Will the child be ridiculed by peers? Will she or he spend most of their growing years trying to defend their family's life style...instead of relating with others to develop into the person that they should become?

(5) What about aids? Are the parents screened for HIV? Is HIV a future threat? Assuming that they do not have other partners.. Can HIV be contacted between the two of them? What risk of contacting this disease is being placed on the children?

(6) Will the children be taken to church? Does the fact that their parents are sinners and haven't reconciled their desires with God, reason for them to keep children from Jesus? Jesus wants all the children to be brought to him to teach and love. Is the parent's life style a stumbling block?

(7) So I wonder??? It is so hard to grow up in today's society with everything in your favor. What will become of the children?

Please do not label me as someone who hates gays. I have nothing but love and compassion for these souls that are being tormented by the devil. But I do not think it is, Christ-like Love, to comfort a sinner in the dark. We are here to be the light of Christ's words. Rather than be complacent and accept the darkness... It is better to
Turn on a light!

:) LOVE

You think by denying gays adoption rights, that then they are being treated as scum??? Trample the innocent and defend the abomination. Are you that blind that you do not know that approving of teaching others that sin is all right angers God?? Raising children by gays will inevitably lead to the parents (at the very least)brainwashing the child into believing that homosexuality is perfectly normal? Maybe even then adopting the same lifestyle?? Homosexuality is sexual perversion, you want to put children in the hands of sexual perverts?? Anyone who opposes this idea is then branded as either hating gays, or treating these "sorely misunderstood" people as scum. Quit being wishy washy as a Christian. Stand up for what is right, at least make an effort!

Romans1:27,32
And the men gave up natural intercourse with women and burned with LUST for one another. Men did SHAMEFUL things with men, and thus received in their own persons the penalty for there PERVERSITY.

They know GOD's just decree that all who do such things deserve death; YET THEY NOT ONLY DO THEM BUT APPROVE THEM IN OTHERS.

You want to give gays rights then to adopt??? You should be ashamed! You carry the title Christian but refuse to stand up for what is right. We are surely living in the end times!
