It should be a safe place to be who you are.

Yes... That internalised homophobia is a huge factor

And like all phobias, you have two choices: let it control you or you control it and ultimately conquer it.

We also know that the law is made not for the righteous but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sinful, the unholy and irreligious, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers, Even though I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent man, I was shown mercy because I acted in ignorance and unbelief. 1 Timothy 1:9‭, ‬13 NIV https://bible.com/bible/111/1ti.1.9-13.NIV

But I tend to agree with Jesus more than Paul...

“Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” Jesus replied: “ ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Matthew 22:36‭-‬40 NIV https://bible.com/bible/111/mat.22.36-40.NIV

I think it’s 1 Timothy 1:6 maybe

U can rebuke someone with love and Jesus loved the sinners doesn’t mean he was okay with them sinning
Avatar of wutmidoin
Very true. But he also embraced the sinners. Remember it was Jesus that stood in the town square with a prostitute and said “let he who is without sun cast the first stone.”

Ultimately it’s not your job nor even your place to judge people for who they are. That right is reserved for Him alone.

Also, obviously that should be *without sin in #56. Stupid autocorrect. And I’m on mobile so can’t edit.
