Comments on: Jennifer Knapp’s “Justification” for Homosexuality http://americanvision.org/2392/jennifer-knapp%e2%80%99s-justification-for-homosexuality/ Wed, 23 May 2012 13:33:43 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Sinnerviewerhttp://americanvision.org/2392/jennifer-knapp%e2%80%99s-justification-for-homosexuality/comment-page-2/#comment-3487 Sinnerviewer Tue, 01 Jun 2010 18:11:50 +0000 http://americanvision.org/?p=2392#comment-3487 I take issue with the whole thing. Jennifer Knapp isn't "defending" herself at all. She even stated that she isn't capable of getting into a theological argument about it. This is like a giant grabbing an ant out of it's mount, calling it a danger, stomping it and then having a big party where all of your friends tell you how cool you are. Congratulations on another missed opportunity to show the love of Christ... I take issue with the whole thing. Jennifer Knapp isn't "defending" herself at all.

Baptism is simply an extra show of Faith as a Christian. I have not been baptized, yet when I leave this world I will meet my Lord and Savior in Heaven. I pray you will change your mind ... and watch what you say before you decide to write it. May God richly bless you with compassion and remove the demon of ridicule from your soul.

As a Christian, I am insulted by this part of your argument. I found it particularly offensive to have such a statement listed under the "Biblical Response" portion of Homosexual Objection 8 when in fact the Holy Bible teaches no such "disease-causing" theory. While I will not refute your additional statements, bear in mind that you or anybody gay or straight might one day be stricken with the virus that causes AIDS. And if that day comes will you be the 'unclean" one? Think before you speak, rather than writing to fill your word quota in order to receive complete compensation for your work as an opinion columnist. May God richly bless you and provide you with compassion before knowledge in your studies.

I have had conversations with so many gay people who try to change the word of God. The word is the word of God no one can change it or add to it. The word of God states he will give them over to reprobate mind to do what is convenient for them. Romans 1 26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; No Man or Woman can serve to Master's. God Or the devil. The spirit of perversion is all over the land. Sadly to say if this young woman does not change her ways, she is going to hell. Homosexuality is a sin point-blank.

Salvation is by Grace. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved. Baptism is the outward personal testimony of your faith but it is NOT a requirement to be saved. Scripture plainly says so. A person who is born again will go to Heaven when they die even if they were never :"immersed". Please read the scriptures clearly. Legalism hurts people and can make our Christian brothers and sisters stumble. Nancy, baptism does not save you. Salvation is by Grace. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved.

What you're espousing is very hard to do in the "loving the sinner/hating the sin" aspect. I have a gay "Christian" brother who of course professes his Christianity to the upper most but in everything else in his life is a model citizen/person. I'm quite proud of his starting his own business after getting fired from his old corporate job. But I struggle both with him and my own family on this subject. My Christian sister who now works with him has swallowed all the wieird gay theology now to the point of not even recognizing that homosexualtiy is a "behavior",etc. So everything to keep the peace I guess in my family, while the huge pink elephant grazes in the center of the room.

You will have to remember that Lot and Sodom and the sodomites were in the Old Testament. I said that because you mentioned the food that We eat. We are not under the Old Law anymore. You would learn a lot by reading the book of Hebrews. We are under the New Testament as you will see at the beginning of the Old and New Testaments. You can see when Peter received a vision from Jesus that told him, that to eat what we eat today is fine. He was told Rise Peter kill and eat. For if you give thanks for the food is was clean for us. He also meant that the Gentiles were clean. He should not consider the Gentiles unclean today as in the Old Testament. Peter had a habit of eating with the Gentile Christians when the Jews weren't around; but when the Jews who were unbelievers were around; he wouldn't eat with the Gentile Christians. The Lord showed Peter He was evil for this dissimulation. As for Sodom; it always has been evil for sodomy; it is told about in Romans. YOU will have to CHANGE your mind if you will continue to be a Christian. Also, if you have never been baptized by immersion, you are not in Christ yet. I pray you will change your mind.
