Romans 1:26-27
Before you start hating on me, there's only a few verses about homosexuality, but there are many more about how God is the only one who can judge us and that we are to love our neighbor as ourselves. The bible is actually quite clear that homosexuality is a sin, but so is lying and we do that daily. All sin is equal, because the wages of sin is death. I'm not the type of person who tells gay people they're going to hell or God doesn't love them, because he does, he loves us all. It isn't our job to judge people but rather to accept and love them regardless of their life choices.
Yeah but the reason the scriptures are considered the word of god is because it is gods will influenced by others so technically this is all gods word.
I usually find pretty major differences between what Jesus says and what Paul says, though. I know the Bible says "all Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching", but thing is, that's also Paul.
You say recovery as if being christian is a disease. Being close-minded is a more of a disease than being christian. And no not all christians are close-minded. I've studied other religions and christianity seems the most plausible to me. I don't need your opinion on that because you won't change mind. (Before you call me close-minded for saying that it's because i've already done my research and made my decision). It is a christians personal belief that the bible is God-breathed and therefore is entirely correct. You may believe whatever you'd like but don't insult people who believe in God as if it's some disease because at the end of the day there is no concrete proof for or against a higher being.
This was the old testament, and the purpose of Jesus giving his life on the cross was that we would be forgiven for these sins. The punishment now comes after death, and only God may be the judge. It is our duty now to just love them unconditionally and show them the light of a loving God. There may be strict rules, but he is loving none the less.
So I guess that him saying "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them." in Matthew 5:17 is an instance of Jesus lying. It very clearly says that the Old Testament still applies.

You can't judge gays but you can certainly execute them.
