I have dealt with people who are bigoted and intolerant like yourself most of my life, I know you only surround yourself with people who only agree with you and share opinions like yourself, I always wonder how people, like yourself, handle life if one of your closest friends comes out to you, how devastated you would feel. Only because of God's goodness has He kept me this long. But you have clothed yourself in your own righteousness that you couldn't handle life if it was thrown out of what you perceive to be what it should. You don't see your own sin, because if you did, you would have more compassion for those who struggle with sin. I thank God, Jesus did!!!

  Yes  life is more important than stuff, duh. What does that have to do with Jesus beginning a parable by saying : here's what you all know: armed homeowners keep their stuff safe?

More compassion from the Right, Very respectful profit?

Compassion like Christ had, calling people names?  Hypocrites, vipers, that fox, yup, always compassionate.
Who's paying me?

Because you obviously have a stranglehold on the English language, Kemosabe, a heterograph Prophet/profit, you get it?

Simlar to my last post to you, I empathize with people who "struggle with sin" because I are one of those people, but there's a difference in "struggling with sin" and wallowing in it, expecting conservative Bible believing Christians to rewrite the uncomfortable parts of the Bible to coddle sin.  We live in a postmodern relativistic society, where blacks and whites are expected to be painted gray, and when we don't see those grays we're called intolerant, bigoted, homophobic, and a host of other epithets designed to shame Bible believers.  But the truth is, there's nothing more loving than being truthful about sin, because it is indeed the truth that sets free.  A doctor who tells a cancer patient that they really don't have cancer so that the patient will feel better about themselves isn't really loving at all, but a deceiving killer.

Yes, I got it, but in order for it to be true sarcastic humor, you need to show me profitting from propheting.  The potential is there, but you never made an analogy.  C'mon, sharpen up your skills, and try to keep up.

Judging those you call intolerant and judgemental.
And, you have no idea what you're talking about!
How fundy of you.....
 
If deisre/tempation isn't sin.... then why are we commanded to avoid temptation?

We know that tempation/desire is not of God. They do not come from God and thus are not perfect and divine. Rsca you really are silly sometimes. The very fact that we experience "desires/tempations" is a testament to our to fallen nature.

How could Christ be tempted in all points as we are yet without sin?

I appreciate that ALAYMAN, I have my demons I battle daily and it is hard. There are people, on this very site and elsewhere when the talk about gays wanting to serve God, they snicker and mock.. Not even realizing their own sinful hearts deceive them. I know who I am and not know my heart and my sins, and only have Jesus to lean on.

I think the key to the issue is that we submit ourselves to Christ through the word.  If his word says something is sin and that we are to become conformed to his image then we ought to have lives of repentance from any and all things he calls sin.

With all due respect.... you should know better than to ask such a question! The glories of the incarnation are not to be compared to our struggles with a fallen nature!

If temptations/desires are okay, then do you expect them to be part our new life in the resurrection? Do you even remember Paul's writtimgs to those in Corinth? Do you remember when he spoke of evil being present with him? What did Paul say about being delivered from such evil? When would this take place?

Your statement is that it is a sin to be tempted.  If that is true then when Christ was tempted was it sin for Him?  Or maybe you over stepped the Word and misspoke?

The sin is not in the temptation but giving into the temptation.

See Matthew's excellent response.

Jesus is fully human. As human as you and I.

[quote author=christundivided]If temptations/desires are okay, then do you expect them to be part our new life in the resurrection?[/quote]

Temptations and/or desires for sin? No...because we will be in the presence of God and have received our glorified bodies and all will be made new.

Other desires? Absolutely.

You mean the church in Rome?

[quote author=christundivided]What did Paul say about being delivered from such evil? When would this take place?[/quote]

At the cross (at least in this particular periscope in this particular letter). At your justification (in other places). As an ongoing part of your sanctification (other places). At your glorification (other places). From the foundations of the world (although that was John).
