Lovely example of a double standard. You want freedom from the law for yourself. But at the same time you want to misuse the law to attack people you are prejudiced againstDoes freedom from the law excuse one from sin?
but what do you do when you yourself are righteously judged. You deny, you accuse, you attack, you engage in pride and hubrisThis is not true either. I have accepted Jesus Christ as my Savior. I have confessed with my mouth that Jesus is Lord and I believe in my hear that God raised from the dead.
We are to judge in righteous judgement.
Probably the same way christians rationalize the parts about animal sacrifice, cloths of two fibers, working on the sabbath, submission of women, murder in the name of god, etc etc
Phinehaus2 said:They are rather likely to be Jews and not Christians, as Christians dont rationalize the OT law and prophets, they follow Jesus Christ who is the fulfillment of the law and prophets.
They pretend that they parts that they dont like dont apply to them but are still happy to use verses next those inconvenient laws to justify prejudice

Umm, who judged me?but what do you do when you yourself are righteously judged. You deny, you accuse, you attack, you engage in pride and hubris
Racists use this same tactic to justify their personal prejudices. They falsely compare people of color to criminals just as you are doing here.I suppose you consider me prejudiced against murderers for calling them sinners too then, no?
SIN IS SIN!! GOD creates morality, NOT YOU!
The "niddah laws" or whatever are OT regulations and rules meant as worship and disciplinary actions for the OT people of God.My question seems to have been forgotten. I am still waiting for a response
If one person is ignoring the niddah laws, and he judges another person to be sinning because he is in a gay relationship, even if the gay person is not violating the "man-lying" law, then how is that not hypocricy?
And you could be free of your sin of prejudice if you chose to.I'm telling people that they can be free from the sin of homosexuality through Christ.

Thanks,

People who would rather live in sin than follow Christ try to rationalize their sins with silly arguments and by using uncontexutaly and ridiculous interpretations of the Scriptures.Racists use this same tactic to justify their personal prejudices. They falsely compare people of color to criminals just as you are doing here.
So what are they doing being brought u in this thread?The "niddah laws" or whatever are OT regulations and rules meant as worship and disciplinary actions for the OT people of God.
Just like wearing clothing made of two different fabrics or shavingHomosexuality is a SIN. It's not just some rule..it's something DETESTABLE to God and is a SIN. That's the difference.
Those aren't "sins" in the sense that they're just plain wrong. If one living in OT times would have done it, they would have been "sinning" to the extent of not following God.So what are they doing being brought u in this thread?

Yes, that is a pretty good description of what you are doing .so when are you going to change?People who would rather live in sin than follow Christ try to rationalize their sins with silly arguments and by using uncontexutaly and ridiculous interpretations of the Scriptures.
Didnt say you were racist at all. merely pointed out the fact that your arguments employ the same tactics of those who are racists and that ultimately your argument is indistinguishable form those presented by racists.Pointing this out is not being racist; first of all, homosexuals aren't some race; they're sinners. Unless you're going to call murderers a race, theives a race, etc., etc..you can drop this silly "argument," and stop calling the brethren of Christ racists.

Now for some reason you seem offended by this. Why? Why do you find such a simple fact so disturbing? Do you think the tactics and arguments of racists to be morally wrong?
And more to the point, if you find the tactics employed by racists to be offensive why do you employ them yourself?
How can you claim they arent sins? They are right there in the bible simply worded plain as day.Those aren't "sins" in the sense that they're just plain wrong.
but you wish to use other laws right next to these fine laws to condemn a minority and justify your personal prejudice. you just claimed that you werent picking and choosing form among Gods laws but that is exactly what you are doing. Find a law personally inconvenient well just declare it not a sin and ignore it. Find a law that helps you bolster prejudice hey THAT law sure is in effect.If one living in OT times would have done it, they would have been "sinning" to the extent of not following God.
The what ceremony?But Christ fulfilled all the OT reuglations and rules and worship ceremonies.
The what law?This does not, however, nullify the moral law! Chrsit wants us to "sin no more;" (his words, not mine alone).
Just like cutting your hair will always be an ugly sinHomosexuality is, always has been, and will be 'till eternity AN UGLY SIN!
Oh do explain tainitedAn untainted conscience will attest to this.
That is a pretty common misinterpretation[/font]
I have not purposely in any way misinterpreted the Scriptures. And I can say with certainty I have not misinterpreted Romans 1. God turned homosexuals over to their sinful, shameful lusts, because they wanted to follow his ways no longer.
You are prejudiced but that isnt calling you or anyone else a racistYou've called numerous people, including myself, prejudiced against this "poor minority" before. That would seem to imply you believe racism is occuring.
No it is truth. Racists use the tactic of comparing people of color to criminals for the same purposes you are comparing homosexuals to criminals.Because it's blatantly false and silly.
Homosexuals are not a people, they are sinners, dirty, rotten and filthy LIKE YOU AND I were and still would be were it not for the sanctification that is worked through the means of Grace.

I had a response prepared, but I just deleted it. Frankly, I'm not the font of all OT levitical law knowledge. I would suggest asking someone who has an accurate understanding of how the OT and NT fit together, how the OT rituals and ceremonies were shadows of things that came in Christ, and have studied all these Levitical laws in-depth.. (I'm going to assume these "niddah laws" were civil laws for the saftey of the Isrealites, but like I said, I don't have an extensive knowledge.)But the listing in Leviticus makes no distinction between bestiality, "man-lying," or having sex with a woman set apart for her niddah.
If that is so, then having sex with a woman less than two weeks after her period is also, has always been also, and will be until eternity also, AN UGLY SIN! God's Scriptures attest to this.

- God makes himself manifest in all of creation, so that any man can recognize his power and glory. But many men reject the Law He has written in their hearts. So He turns these men --and women -- over to their baser emotions and needs. They "burn" in their passions which are never fulfilled (That is He allows them to become addicts.) In the example, it is specifically an addiction to sex -- homosex if you insist -- but that is just one concrete example. Then because of their addiction, their need, their craving, they are willing to do anything for their next "fix."
- But don't start feeling all smug an judgemental, you have no excuses, you are just as addicted to your sins. When God judges them for the mess they have made of their lives, He will find you just as guilty.
