Bible teaches
intolerance of gays
Mail Call
Although Mail Call letters are
edited for length, style and accura
cy, opinion columns apparently
have the luxury of being printed
regardless of accuracy.
In his Oct. 6 column, Michael
Schaub was repeatedly inaccurate
as he tried to reconcile Christianity
and homosexuality. Perhaps a little
study on his part would have re
vealed that in fact the Bible does
preach intolerance of homosexu
ality.
In Numbers 20:13, God tells his
people, “If a man lies with another
man as one lies with a woman,
both have done what is de
testable.” It is in fact a sin to be ho
mosexual.
God cannot tolerate sin, and as
“imitators of God,” Christians
should not tolerate sin either. As
Christians we are to “love our
neighbors as ourselves” but still
“have no fellowship with the un
fruitful works of darkness, but
rather reprove them.”
God wants the best for his chil
dren, but cannot look upon sin.
Schaub’s quote of Bobby Griffith
correctly assessed the problem.
Bobby felt estranged from God be
cause he had “chosen sin over
righteousness.”
In his choice to pursue homo
sexuality, he chose to separate
himself from God.
Christianity is a religion of love.
“God demonstrated his love for us,
in that while we were yet sinners
Christ died for us.”
However, part of God’s love for
us includes his desire that we do
his will. Bobby’s mother was right
to pray for the conversion
son.
As Christians we should ti
the opportunity presented by
“Coming Out” week to prayfol
spiritual awakening and convej
sion among homosexuals. "Co:
ing Out” week shouldn’t beal
coming out of the closet, but
ing out of sin.
