Homosexuality: Right or Wrong? (read pg1)

That is not even equatable!

Ohioprof OR you have no reason to believe that the people God, inspired with His powerful message, were inaccurate in ANY way.

My God is powerful enough to create this universe. why would He be any less powerful to ensure accuracy of His message to the world?



Not all Christians have had the baptism of the Holy Spirit, but all do have the indwelling Holy Spirit, FYI.

Of course the Bible is errant. There are two different Genesis creation stories, and they conflict with the evidence from evolution. That's just one example. There is plenty of evidence that most of the stories in the Bible are not literally true. Jesus was not literally born of a virgin, and he never rose physically from the dead either. That's just a story. It's a good story, but it's not literally a true story.

According to the text that Ohioprof believes may be errant.

I don't believe it may be errant. I believe much of it IS errant. Many of the stories in the Bible are not literally true.

This is news to people?

God is merciful, but then again, the righteous shall live by faith. We are taught that are own righteousness is like filthy rags.

Habakkuk 2:4​

"Behold, as for the proud one, His soul is not right within him; But the righteous will live by his faith."

Romans 1:17​

"For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "BUT THE RIGHTEOUS man SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.""

"All of us have become like one who is unclean,
and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags;
we all shrivel up like a leaf,
and like the wind our sins sweep us away."
ISiAh 64:6



If Jesus was not literally resurrected, we are still dead in our sins and our righteousness is still like filthy rags.

Not in my view. I think we are mostly good people doing our best in life, and we are all saved. That means that when we die, we all return to God, from whence we came. Animals and plants do likewise, I think.
