The sheer arrogance and haughtiness of your post demonstrates why you promote homosexuality as a viable alternate lifestyle in opposition to God’ word.
What does my arrogance in pointing out the class of people who go to your types of churches have anything to do with homosexuality. Other than further proving, the more educated, upper class people (who run this country) have learned to accept different ways of life from their own.
The comments you and others continue to make show your class, education and wealth. Before you knock a lifestyle, try living it . I may not have as many degrees as you have, however, my education advanced me to a controller position in a manufacturing company and I did live your lifestyle until I saw the fear that goes with it. Living in gated communities with panic buttons in your cars and pockets/purses is not my idea of an "abundant life". Matthew 6:19-25
19 "Do not lay up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 "But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal; 21 for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. 22 "The lamp of the body is the eye; if therefore your eye is clear, your whole body will be full of light. 23 "But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness! 24 "No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will hold to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon. NAS
Luke 12:48-53
And from everyone who has been given much shall much be required; and to whom they entrusted much, of him they will ask all the more.
49 "I have come to cast fire upon the earth; and how I wish it were already kindled! 50 "But I have a baptism to undergo, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished! 51 "Do you suppose that I came to grant peace on earth? I tell you, no, but rather division; 52 for from now on five members in one household will be divided, three against two, and two against three. 53 "They will be divided, father against son, and son against father; mother against daughter, and daughter against mother; mother-in-law against daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law."
NAS
Luke 12:16-21
16 And He told them a parable, saying, "The land of a certain rich man was very productive. 17 "And he began reasoning to himself, saying, 'What shall I do, since I have no place to store my crops?' 18 "And he said, 'This is what I will do: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. 19'And I will say to my soul, "Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years to come; take your ease, eat, drink and be merry."' 20 "But God said to him, 'You fool! This very night your soul is required of you; and now who will own what you have prepared?' 21 "So is the man who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God." NAS
Where are your treasures?
