Would you have said the same to the virgin Mary? A virgin pregnant! The Holy Ghost did it?! Yeah, I can hear it now.

SignUp Now!Jesus would preach righteousness to him. And for the need to repent and to seek to enter the Kingdom of God.What would Jesus do?
You betcha @Waggles !!! After giving it more thought I came up with this - If someone, ANYONE for that matter knew just one scripture in the Bible they would know that for one - Jesus is AGAINST homosexuality - If they hadn't read it they could see the uproar on television with churches & the gay marriages that have been happening lately. Secondly - For a screen name as he has yet questioned a dream as the one claimed is a joke & should be taken as such.
I'm NOT here bashing him or them that feel that he is crying out for answers. But I see it as a "gotcha" moment. We would have been in the wrong to entertain such a discussion. There are questions Jesus stayed mute about & for good reason.
I know God loves you so much, brother; and so do I.Jesus would preach righteousness to him. And for the need to repent and to seek to enter the Kingdom of God.
it is the fear of God that begets wisdom and leads one to salvation in the gospel.
Jesus wasn't shy in rebuking false religion and challenging people's sins.
"This youngster was seeking wisdom and understanding and we failed him."
Was he really? I'm not so sure on this.
The very judgment he has been judged with ( His user name even), JESUS IS ALSO AGAINST. Get over self and speak the Word of God to the spirits. Speak to the spirits ladies. Don't kick him in the feet with worldly scatter; He is very use to that. Where is the love? Oh yeah, God loves the kid; you don't.Yep...the username gave him away. It is irreverent and mocking.
Sorry my sister I just don't share your optimism in regards to JesusLoverboy being innocent and wanting wisdom from Christians...No, this young man split. He didn't understand and was seeking wisdom.
Those who stop in just to torment or criticize Our faith, usually are right back to make havoc of our house again very soon. This youngster cut bait and bailed after 8 messages, has not logged in since September 1 (abt there). I don't blame Him, the wolves in sheep clothing did rip and year. Amen.
Yes, making sure the light that is in you be not darkness. If thine eye be evil, how great is thine evil? Very sad how this youngster was treated by the wolf pack. Yep, I heard the world and what it does; the devil spirit; pointing fingers, and never once look at self, lacking of love, compassion, patience, gentleness, kindness... Good thing God didn't trust us to talk to the who're at the well, huh?When we are without God or have only a limited experience with God, the worst of times can and do come up against us and according to men we react in the wrong way.
Even if the wrong words come out of a person's mouth or he apparently takes the wrong actions, does God stop loving him and remove his hope of ever changing for the better?
How evil was Saul/Paul before his encounter on the road to Damascus?
"And when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by, and consenting unto his death, and kept the raiment of them that slew him." Acts 22:20
Today under man's law, Paul's action or inaction in the case of Stephen might have made him an "accessory after the fact" of murder and subject to severe penalties, but God was looking at the heart of Paul which could be and was changed:
"Judge not, that ye be not judged.
For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?" Matt 7:1-3
Jesusloverboy put out the question to us for an answer. And we answered.Has God ever done something similar to anyone of you? Does this mean Jesus want me to be homosexual?
Yes, wise As sergeants and harmless as doves. Doves are sweet and unthreatening; that is not how the forum responded; not Christ like, but world like. He even had in his OP ( I am not homosexual or anything). That didn't matter. Whe, drawing closer to God, the devil will come with strong delusions; were we light in his darkness?Jesusloverboy put out the question to us for an answer. And we answered.
In the end he needs to understand the truth of the matter.
NO Jesus does not want him to become homosexual.
I have done a lot of evangelising and witnessing for the gospel over 20 years and I guess the instruction to be as wise as serpents and as gentle as doves is
still valid.
My experience and wisdom guides me to challenge him to repentance and allowing the Holy Spirit to transform his life to the righteousness of God.
This was not the only posting that this fellow @Jesusloverboy has put up. All of them are provocative and I believe aimed at mocking and sneering at
Christian faith. Equating the ban on eating shellfish with the commandment against male homosexual acts.
Those of us who challenged him hopefully encouraged or shocked him to examine himself and realize that God is not calling him to be homosexual.
If he wants to become a Christian that is not the pathway to salvation. He needs to know that.
Unfortunately, and this is really sad, there are false churches [synagogues of Satan?] out there that will welcome him in as a Christian homosexual.
He might be happy and enjoy the fellowship of such a congregation - but in the end it is death.
Should we have not told him so? Hopefully we did.
