Page 895 … standing for Truth

“My intent, as much as you refuse to believe otherwise, is not to bash gay people or condemn them, but rather to stand for biblical truth”

My dear Friend, your true intent is for you to know and you alone.  Of course, regardless of what you are intending by bashing homosexuals, you most definitely are bashing them – and Jesus most definitely would like for you to STOP doing so!

 

A new commandment I give to you: that you Love one another.  Just as I have Loved, so you also are to Love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples:  when you show Love towards one another.” ~ Jesus Christ (John 13:34-35)

 

Do not judge, so that you may not be judged. For with the judgment you make you will be judged, and the measure you give will be the measure you get.  Why do you see the speck in your neighbor’s eye, but do not notice the log in your own? … You hypocrite! First take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to identify the speck in your neighbor’s … Let he without sin cast the first stone.” ~ Jesus Christ (Matthew 7:1-5 + John 8:7)

 

Be perfect [in LOVE] therefore, just as [the LOVE] of your Father in Heaven is perfect … There is no fear in Love, but perfect Love casts out fear.  For fear has to do with punishment and whoever fears has not reached perfection in Love … Show mercy to others, just as your heavenly Father shows them mercy.” ~ Jesus Christ (Matthew 5:48 + 1 John 4:18 + Luke 6.36)
