    Sure, but the way sin gets redefined how is one supposed to know the difference between thorn and fig?

    We do not have a working definition of the term.

    Is there some 40 time in the Bible that I do not know about?

    Throughout the Bible, sin has never been "redefined".

    Maybe YOU don't have a "working definition" of the term, but that surprises no one.

    Perhaps you can provide the Biblical text that describes the behavior.

    The Bible does describe sexual immorality as sex outside of marriage. The Bible does decribe marriage as a union of a man and a woman.

    Seeing as you ignore those Biblical concepts, I find your response comical.

    In your mind it has been.

    And the ONE major "Biblical concept" YOU ignore is how we are told to treat each other. When you use God as an excuse to treat your neighbor like crap, that's on YOU, not God.

    How does one treat others as crap?

    I find it funny how you of all people can complain about people being treated poorly. You are one of the most abusive posters I've run across on any forum.

    Someone's got to keep you anti-social morons scrambling to justify your racist, sexist actions. All some posters here care about is when they are addressed directly. They couldn't give a rat's ass how others get treated.

    You need commentary or can you get what I'm talking about from these?

    Luke 3:16
    John answered them all, saying, “I baptize you with water, but he who is mightier than I is coming, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

    Acts 2:38
    And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

    Galatians 5:
    13 For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. 14 For the whole law is fulfilled in one word: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 15 But if you bite and devour one another, watch out that you are not consumed by one another.
    Keep in Step with the Spirit
    16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. 17 For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you want to do. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 19 Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, 21 envy,[d] drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do[e] such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. 24 And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
    25 If we live by the Spirit, let us also keep in step with the Spirit. 26 Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.

    I'm asking because you seem to think you do and yet you berate others. You can dodge the question with this little barb if you want to of course.
