Homosexuality Is NOT A Sin: What Christ Said And More

[HtheDarkStealthDude]

Leviticus: Christian law?
Jesus said and I quote:
Matthew 22:37-39: " You must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul and with your whole mind. This is the greatests and first commandment. The second like it, it is, "You must your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments the whole Law hangs, and the Prophets".
Now you guys ask why I have stated this.
1. The first one cited comes from Deuteronomy 6:5
2, The second one comes from Leviticus 19:18.
So this is my theory.
If I dont have to follow Leviticus 19:18, then I am sinning? Was Jesus sinning when he said that commandment? Think about that.
I will get back here later on after I have read all what Linaloki have stated about homosexuality.

Did I say following Mosaic law was sinful? No. However, any Mosaic law not given a thumbs up by Christ or the Council is no longer needed to be followed as Christians.

The Greek word used there, to the best of my knowledge, is agape. Which is not the same as friendship, or philos, love. It says unconditional in the English translation, also suggesting agape.

I think the word Agape Is rather Conducive with your interpretation, loki. Seeing as Agape equates to something close to family love.

I have no idea what Xblustar is saying.....considering the word he's talking about is Philia.....which isn't found in the texts.

Sorry... I was taught that there was Philos, brotherly or friendly love, Eros, erotic love, and Agape, unconditional love. I suppose Family love could fit in there too, but families were probably viewed more closely knit back then.

Check out the book "The End of Religion" by Bruxy Cavey ( http://www.theendofreligion.org/ ) it says how religion is now useless and yet written by a christian!

If I were you, I would not insult linaloki. His comment came from the assumption that your two questions were connected.

I was always under the impression that agape was the love for God and his love in return, like a Love which has no limits? So it's the same as loving thy neighbour.
Guess I'm mistaken then. gonk

Well, yes. An unconditional love. God's love for us is agape, as it's unconditional.

...or something like that. *needs to study Greek*

Perhaps before calling other people stupid, you should learn how to speak coherently. You see, in English, one isn't supposed to switch topics from one sentence to the next without proper flow or a paragraph break. Go to class, baka.

Does it matter which one? Sorry to sound a little bit rude

The thing is, (i dunno if someone posted this I wanted to speak with you) that the new testament states that the Old Testament Laws,, not the Commandments, are null-n-Void when Jesus dies on the cross. like the ridiculous rules. I saw that you posted Old Testament laws, allot of that doesn't apply anymore because they old laws were nailed to the cross with Jesus. My pastor is actually teaching on some of these things the last few weeks.

Were those your words? I believe that yes, they were.
Jesus said that marriage was supposed to be between a man and a woman. God knows our physical stucture as well and as he created us a man and a woman, he only knows how we are made.(Matthew 19:4-6)
But my question is, how come that creation is the one that remains as superior today?

Christians don't have to. Not in their entirety. Besides, you could claim that they don't have to follow any of the Mosaic Laws, and only follow what Christ said. Just because he coincidentally included a Mosaic Law is no reason to follow all the rest.

And your Matthew verse is being taken out of context. Jesus was asked a question involving the marriage between a man and a woman.

You'll note that later, Jesus teaches that marriage is not for those that cannot reproduce. Should this be true for everyone? Or was he telling this to the Jews, whom he was speaking to?
