Christian Homosexuality
“Being a homosexual isn’t a sin, but having sex with another person of the same sex is.”
“Jesus loves homosexuals; he just doesn’t like it when they have sex with other members of the same sex.”
I thought of these quotes while trying to determine what my response should be towards homosexuality. I didn’t want to come straight out and say, “homosexuality is a sin,” because I don’t think it is. To me, homosexuality is a genetic or behavioral trait where a person is attracted to other members of the same sex either because of their genetic make up, or due to some experience throughout life. I have heard the testimony of homosexual men saying that as youths, they had dreams about other men and not women. This led me to believe that homosexuality is not a choice, at least not a choice for most.
Catching Foxes
“Catch us the little foxes,
the little foxes
that ruin the vineyards,
our vineyards that are in bloom.”
Song of Solomon 2:15 (NIV)
Back to Blogging
So after a short reprieve, hopefully this website will see more posts in the next few days. Recently, I’ve been busy finishing up some projects at work, and this has been reflected by the lack of posts. I’ll be out of town next week too, so there probably won’t be any posts then, but through Friday hopefully I’ll be able to publish some more. Currently, I have about ten posts in the works.
And yes, I realize the irony that my last post, rejuveNate, was followed by this post.
