Heretics
The Nashville Statement reaffirms exactly what the Bible says however. The bible states the following: “Do you not know that the unjust will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators nor idolaters nor adulterers nor boy prostitutes nor sodomites nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor robbers will inherit the kingdom of God.” 1 Corinthians 6:9-10. “Therefore, God handed them over to degrading passions. Their females exchanged natural relations for unnatural, and the males likewise gave up natural relations with females and burned with lust for one another. Males did shameful things with males and thus received in their own persons the due penalty for their perversity.” Romans 1:26-27. “We know that the law is good, provided that one uses it as law, with the understanding that law is meant not for a righteous person but for the lawless and unruly, the godless and sinful, the unholy and profane, those who kill their fathers or mothers, murderers, the unchaste, sodomites, kidnappers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is opposed to sound teaching.” 1 timothy 1:8-10. “If a man lies with a male as with a woman, they have committed an abomination; the two of them shall be put to death; their bloodguilt is upon them.” Leviticus 20:13. “You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; such a thing is an abomination.” Leviticus 18:22.
Catholics remain united with a clear voice even though the Pope has made statements such as “who am I to judge.” The Catechism of the Catholic Church has made very clear statements on the issue. “Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, tradition has always declared that ‘homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered.’ They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved.” CCC 2357. “This inclination, which is objectively disordered, constitutes for most of them a trial. They must be accepted with respect, compassion, and sensitivity.” CCC 2358. “Homosexual persons are called to chastity.” CCC 2359.
No matter how much one hates these prescriptions, one cannot change their clear meaning, no matter how you attempt to spin these Bible verses. Christians United has no valid ground to base its arguments, so they rely on the same arguments as the alt-left, racism, bigotry and discrimination. These worn out derogatory terms will never change the truth of the gospel God gave us. These vitriol and divisive terms will never change our history, no matter how much fuse and confusion the alt-left fabricates by using them.
You must know that there cannot be two sets of truths which oppose each other. Only one set of facts can be true. Fire burns. Water freezes at 32 degrees. A child is produced by an egg and a sperm. These are natural truths. One can argue against them but making counter agreements cannot and will not change these truth. The world was involved in two world wars. Slavery existed for thousands of years in the past and still exists today. Slavery existed in the United States and our country fought a civil war over that issue. Racism by both blacks and whites still exist. These are political truths which exist and cannot be changed no matter how much fake news one can generate to dissuade their belief.
Then there are divine truths. These truth are the commandments God issued to humans through the prophets and His son, Jesus Christ and they are written in the Bible. They, like natural and political truths, cannot be changed. But divine truth has a more sinister purpose. A violation results in punishment. The adjudicator, sentencor and executor is God Himself. Justice is not dispensed through nature, public opinion, the Supreme Court, the alt-right or the alt-left. An unbridled violation results in the death penalty. Yes, God loves all but He also dispenses justice. You will find these prerogatives of God, love and justice, to be truths laid out plainly in the Bible, no matter how hard you attempt to convince yourself of their untruth. God does love all but He also dispenses justice. Just because God loves a homosexual does not legitimate his actions. God also loves the murderer but His love does not justify the murderer’s actions. God’s justice can be tough. Are you confused, retain hatred, greed and bigotry within your heart? Are you unhappy with your life and position within society? Just maybe you reject too many truths, natural, political and divine.
