Would You As Pastor allow Homosexuals To Frolic In Your Church?

[Andy C Wuhraizer]

Vermont has just okayed what they call "same sex mariages". It is very sad that we humans who are supposed to be the most intelligent creatures on earth, dont even understand or appreciate the sacred purpose of marriage. The reason why God instituted marriage is for reproduction, plus nothing, minus nothing. The sole reason why we are created male and female, or exibit some form of sexuality is to reproduce. If we didnt have to reproduce after our kind, we wont have any devices for sex. Angels dont reproduce and as such are sexless beings. Everything else God put on earth comes in pairs of male and female. Even birds know this. Have you ever gone bird-watching and seen two male birds weaving a nest and trying to raise a family?
You dont have to be a rocket scientist in order to understand that another man's behind was neither designed by God nor evolution for sex. The anus is not a sexul organ, period. So that if you want to use a body feature designed to accomplish one task for a completely senseless one then there is something wrong with your perception. You are like the man who sees a deer and calls it an elephant. Something is wrong upstairs!! What is the purpose of a so called same sex marriage. Sexual pleasure so they speak. But pleasure is not the purpose for sex.The pleasure part is secondary. God made sex pleasurable, why? Because if it had felt like surgery, you would have to hold a gun to your partner's head to have children. Homosexuals have taken the "purpose" out and are going gang-ho after the "pleasure".WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY ABOUT PLEASURE-SEEKING IN THE LAST DAYS?
As A pastor the only way I would allow a homosexual in my congregation if they understand that homosexuality, just all other deviations , is wrong and they came to church to seek help like all of us do. But if a homosexual shows up in church all cocky and full of gay pride and trying to peddle his ware in the church, I will chase him out with a baseball bat!!! lol!
You just said "wow, he hates homosexuals!", right? Wrong. As a pastor you cant hate anybody because of their sin.It will be like a Doctor hating a patient because the latter has a form of cancer the Doctor dreads.But if the patient tells the Doc, "Leave my cancer a lone. I was born with it, and I am proud of it." Well, then get out of the hospital! I dont hate homosexuals, I hate homosexuality. You dont hate the sinner, you hate the sin. You have to hate the sin enough to be able to help the sinner. On the other hand if you love the sin, you yourself might just get caught up in it.I consider it a disgrace to the human race that we allow behavior that even some animals shy away from.

I once asked a question that was NEVER answered....Are there examples of a Woman Pastor found in scripture?

[Lester Demings Jr]

I don't want "examples" because they were NOT pastors and it did not say they were pastors.
I NEED A SCRIPTURE THAT SAYS GOD HAS ORDAINED WOMEN PASTORS AND BISHOPS.
WHERE IS THIS SCRIPTURE???
The last time I checked the WORD says that a bishop must be the HUSBAND OF ONE WIFE.
Deborah was NOT a pastor she was nothing more than a representative used for God for the Israelites- plain and simple.
So, WHERE is the scripture?

[karen d washington]

Deborah actually was a Prophetess who judge Israel at that point of time. I do agree the scriptures planly says the husband of one wife for Bishops; however, it never said whether a pastor was male or female. The scriptures says if a man is doing a work to improve the kingdom of God. Leave them alone because they can not speak much evil of him and still work these miracles. Men are constantly judging who God called when God said he uses who ever he wants too. We are not God and never can be God for we are to low still caught up in who he want to use. Leave the calling to God and let God judge them. It will be a sad day when he returns and you can not enter into the kingdom of God because you still trying to find out who God calls. I wonder sometimes when I see people who say they are one of his ministers but yet they do not act like Jesus. If we have to become like God we have to put off our fleshly ways. Shut our mouths and stop being so opinionated and strive to save souls.

[karen d washington]

Well, there is no where in the bible to show a woman can be a pastor or whether a man can be a pastor so I do not knock it. It does say a Bishop should be the husband of one wife. I do not stand and say who are what God call anyone to do because I am not God. All I know I know some powerful women and I myself am powerful in God and I am so glad to know them and myself. I tell all them sisters "PREACH"

[John]

You know I had answered saying I didn't see where it stated that a woman was a pastor or anything but most people take the verse where Paul says a woman should be silent in church and learn from her husband (parphraysing) as stating that. I also said that it never said where a woman can be a leader in church but we all know there were prophetesses and strong women in the Lord in both the OT and NT. I don't think God minds if anyone preaches, teaches and leads people to Him. I do know He doesn't want men that are gay leading but there are those that do and they don't get expelled from leadership positions. What's up with that? LOL

[Archbishop Trevor 'Elihu' Greene]

Whats up is that people aren't standing for righteousness. Carlton Pearson, an excommunicated Bishop, is STILL doing his thing amongst Christians. He's now on the board of Bishops for "The Fellowship", an organization of churches that are quite "controversial". Special note: Barak Obama was apart of the church that is "The Fellowship" for 20 years or so. It is this same organization that sanctions homosexual churches. And what about openly homosexual Episcopal "Bishop" V. Gene Robinson? It was him that gave the opening invocational prayer for the weekend of "celebration" for Obama's inauguration.

WHATS GOING ON HERE??

[John]

Brother Trevor because they are of the world!

[karen d washington]

LOL, my brother something has gone wrong somewhere.

[Lester Demings Jr]

Only ONE person here has went to my three discussions I created and left an answer.
I am yet waiting to see who else has something to say about what I posted.
Let's talk about the WHOLE Bible not just the parts we want to beat people with.
I especially want to hear what the good 'ole crew has to say.
Since they are all such mighty theologians.

[John]

Where are your discussions under MarQuiese? Nevermind I can click on your picture and go to your homepage and find out correct? I'll try that.

[Eric Hancock]

there is NO scripture that there should be weman Pastors nor Bishop,,it is written that a Bishop must have one wife,,BUT the first two that ran and spke on Jesus resurrection was weman..weman has been used in the ministry for ..my God since the ministry started...BUT Titles ..of Bishop NEVER mentioned ,,BUT they're doing it and GROWING,,,so what are we to say or do if they're growing and doing what thus saith the lord,,especially if they bringing in the saints

[Eric Hancock]

your point that needs to be addressed is it is not scripture based,,correct?,,,well,,if God is in it ,it will grow,,and they're growing..I'll have to step away for a moment BUT I will be back
