What makes you think that I care about your punctuation?

It's one thing to admit you're a sinner, and quite another to use that as a shield to deceive people.

my punctuation apology was about my earlier post....:)

I do not use anything as a shield and I do not deceive anyone, in fact i want to stop people deceiving themselves...:)

Yes, I agree that this can be challenging.

People who aren't delusional or obstinately stubborn will at least reconsider their position when they are told they are not only wrong, but fabricating stuff whole cloth.

And you don't have a bias?

My "bias" is for all God's people to accept one another for what they are, and not for what they do. I couldn't care less if someone is gay or not. It's between that person and God, and nobody else. There is not another Christian on earth that has to meet with my approval. And, like it or not, they don't have to meet with yours, either. And it that Christian is gay...so what? Not my business. Also not your business.

As I've said before, Christians need to concern themselves a little more about sharing the good news with others, and a little less about spouting doom and gloom over which two people are sharing a milkshake. Worry a little more about making your own life pleasing to God, and a little less about sticking your nose into everyone else's business. You are a sinner. A sinner judging other sinners for sinning. What could be more hypocritical than that?

The message of the gospel is forgiveness of sins and eternal life through Jesus Christ. How do you propose to share this good news if sin is not addressed? Are you saying the church/Christians should condone any behavior? Do you know whether or not anyone here is actually sticking their nose personally in anyone's business or is this simply a discussion on a forum?

What he said was "whoever believes in him will not perish, but have eternal life." You're the one who keeps adding the ifs, ands, and buts.
