Of course it is. I wouldn't expect one who calls homosexuality good to be able to see it.

Oooooooooohhh, what a "burn"....

So racism wasn't good enough for you, you have to be a homophobe now too?

Tell me, genius... how many of these people you hate have you brought to God?

Jesus did his best work among sinners. He didn't hate any of them. Take the hint. Otherwise your Christianity is a sham.

Not a burn, just the truth. God will provide the burn.

As Jesus said, go and sin no more. Of course this only means something to a person who knows what is actually sinful.

If Christians are "chosen", then why do you go knocking on people's doors?
Just because you are such a nice guy,
We knock on people's doors to give them the opportunity to learn something frrom the Bible, specifically, about God's Kingdom through His son Christ Jesus.
The chosen are ones chosen by Jehovah from among all His servants to become a part of a special group, a new creation:
(Galatians 6:15) For neither is circumcision anything nor is uncircumcision, but a new creation is.
(1 Peter 2:9) But you are “a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for special possession, that you should declare abroad the excellencies” of the One who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

That group are to be a priesthood to help restore mankind to it's rightful, perfect condition.
(Revelation 22:2) down the middle of its main street. On both sides of the river were trees of life producing 12 crops of fruit, yielding their fruit each month. And the leaves of the trees .....were for the healing of the nations.

No, the OP title by Robbie Carrobie clearly states "Christians are chosen". There is no talk about "the chosen ones becoming a special group" from within Jehovah's servants.

Or are you saying that only those chosen from amoung "Jehovah's servants" are actually the true Christians and all the other Jehovah's servants are not?

Oh dear, have you been listening to robbie carrobie telling you that I'm demon possessed? You really should try to understand that this is just an Internet forum board and disagreeing with you is not equal to satanism.

I feel comfortable considered evil by you, whose posting is characterised only by hatred and bitterness.

You seem a very unhappy person - perhaps you should revisit the new testament and spend less time searching for scriptural interpretations which bolster your animosity and prejudices.

Perhaps you should read the new testament yourself so you can see what it says.

I'm very familiar with it thanks. More so that you I think, who appears to have completely missed the central message.

Central message?

Make Jesus Lord of your life and sin no more.

The problem with most people is that they don't even recognize sin.

Exchanging natural relations (man and woman) for unnatural relations is sinful.

Are you aware of that part or do you need book, chapter and verse?

That is not the central message of Jesus's teachings.

Are you so arrogant to believe that you have the right to force your belief on me?

So you admit that your views on the Bible are simply your opinion about the parts that you have benn made aware? That your opinions are not actualky to be believed by anyone but yourself.

Your opinion is based on generalities and any specifics mentioned in the Bible are to be ignored.

I would once again draw your attention to the fact that you have completely failed to grasp the central message of New Testament, and yet presume to lecture others regarding the tenets of this faith which you clearly don't understand. And then I laugh at you again.
