How can any true Christian accept an Appointing of a gay bishop ?

Autodidact

Intentionally Blank
Romans 1:26-27 - "Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion - happy

Still waiting for the PROHIBITION. The part where God says "Thou shalt not..." Got it?

man this is hard work - i cant have a conversation with you its just to hard its really i am being honest its like trying to explain physics to a 5 year old mental handicapped child - i am no trying to be personal - thats just how hard it is - so dont feel offend if i dont reply to your post its just to much work
Perhaps if you had at least a 5 year olds knowledge of physics....

The problem here is that you are trying real hard to appear smarter than you actually are.
You are not the first dumbasstic "scholar" who has attempted this very tactic.
 
Let me ask you this question - do you think God smiles on you for using his name to promote your bigotry? If you even are a Christian.

why should i say nothing - should i say nothing if i find out a bishop is abusing young children - in case i am labelled as a hypocrite - yeah lets all pretend its not in the bible and it will go way hey

I can tell you my friend, I always expect a well seasoned argument from him. He knows his bible and Christian theology. I dont always agree with him but he knows what he is talking about.

I think you need to do your homework you don't seem to be able to hold up your side of the argument very well. Calling people naive is not an argument.

i only say that because by your words you know nothing - therefore nothing to learn
Oh come on now.
One would think that with your self proclaimed superior knowledge that you would not have to resort to such childish tactics.

But then, you have not even been able to present verses from the Bible that support any of your claims.
Even when you have been flat out asked to present from the Bible to support your claim.

can you read its in black and white - lust is a sin - God stopped showing them the truth as they did not want to see it , so he stopped and allowed them to be consumed with lust for each other woman engaged in unnatural acts(woman on woman) - just like men did and lusted after each other - to me that is as plain as day -lust is a sin - God says they were already in lust with each other and did not want to hear the truth so stopped showing it to them - how is that hard to understand - God hates sin , sin = lust

Being gay and being a pedophile are not the same thing. All of us (i hope) don't think church leaders should be pedophiles.

Are you sober?

I second this question.
 
I am a Christian, and I believe that God accepts homosexuals who open to God's leadership and follow the word of God. When God calls anyone, we should honor that calling with education and ordination.

A homosexual living in sin is precisely like a heterosexual - living only according to lusts, having affairs, and not being faithful to matrimonial covanents. In this respect, these issues need to be addressed during the education process, along with any other destructive habits.

I believe that God accepts homosexuals who open to God's leadership and follow the word of God. - agree but not lead

and what if that person still chooses to have an affair - and be unfaithful - still chooses to cheat on his wife should he remain the leader of a church ?

No answer, huh?

Not a problem for me. I'm not the one trying to speak for God, nor am I the one seeking his approval.

You can't figure that out from my post?

I don't think that any person having an affair or otherwise is unfaithful to their partner should be in leadership.

Like I said:
