your posts are more a reflection of your lack of upbringing than they are of me, manners makes a man and civility costs nothing. I also draw your attention to the RHP forum posting guidelines,
Discussions in forums can often get heated, but while you may take issue with another poster's viewpoint, you must not resort to personal attacks or abuse ...[text shortened]... onduct yourself without insulting others that you desist from abusing the forums in this way.

But you have been washed clean, but you have been sanctified, but you have been declared righteous in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and with the spirit of our God.
How in the world do you think these were "washed clean"?
It wasn't by turning them away from the door of the church, now was it?
Originally posted by Suziannei thought that would be elementary dear Watson, they repented and changed their course of life. I would appreciate it if you refrained from telling others how stupid they are, its neither mannerly nor very Christian. I suspect that you resort to such because of the weakness of your arguments once again proving the point that our posts are more a reflection of us than they are of those whom they are intended to insult.

I see, how very interesting, i was always unaware of the distinction and I thank you for it, in fact, i prefer the term Hebrew myself although again I remain unaware of the distinction. Laphriog will leave you in no doubt my friend, enjoy!

Originally posted by stellspalfiethe Bible does not answer what makes a person gay, why don't you ask a question about its actual contents rather than asking questions about what's not in it.
you never did tell me what makes a person gay in the eyes of god and in the eyes of you, and if the two are the same?

(1 Corinthians 6:9-11) What! Do you not know that unrighteous persons will not inherit God’s kingdom? Do not be misled.

Romans 1:28-32
New Living Translation (NLT)
28 Since they thought it foolish to acknowledge God, he abandoned them to their foolish thinking and let them do things that should never be done. 29 Their lives became full of every kind of wickedness, sin, greed, hate, envy, murder, quarreling, deception, malicious behavior, and gossip. 30 They are backstabbers, haters of God, insolent, proud, and boastful. They invent new ways of sinning, and they disobey their parents. 31 They refuse to understand, break their promises, are heartless, and have no mercy. 32 They know God’s justice requires that those who do these things deserve to die, yet they do them anyway. Worse yet, they encourage others to do them, too.
Isaiah 5:20
New Living Translation (NLT)
20 What sorrow for those who say
that evil is good and good is evil,
that dark is light and light is dark,
that bitter is sweet and sweet is bitter.
Psalm 10:3
Good News Translation (GNT)
3 The wicked are proud of their evil desires;
the greedy curse and reject the Lord.

No omission needed here at all as the Bible speaks for itself and the knowedge that is there for all to see and understand....IF they want to see.
It seems to me no matter the subject that is speaking of God and his word, you are always, always, looking for some way to find fault and some mistake that you think God has made. Wow!!!!!

glorified school bullying and homophobia, wow, do you really think that is the reasons that the church in Scotland is against admitting those who want to engage in a practice that they deem both as opposed to nature and opposed to scripture.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieAlmost everyone I know does not have a "sad view of right and wrong" and does not have an "inability to discern between the two". Are all these people I know and most of the people I have ever known not also part of the "man" galveston75 was referring to when he talked about "..scriptures that describe mans sad view of right and wrong..." ?

Originally posted by galveston75Yes I am utterly serious. Most people not have a "sad view of right and wrong" and do not have an "inability to discern between the two". What is the validity or purpose of your generalization about the nature of "man"?
Lol. Are you serious?
