God never said........

...


-God never said it was the government's responsibility to take care of the needs of the poor, sick, and homeless.
-God never said it wasn't either.

-God never said it was the government's responsibility to legislate morality.

-God never said gay marriage is a sin
-God never said anything at all about gay marriage


-God has said many things that many people ignore
Yet they will preach with false conviction things God would never say.


-God loves illegal immigrants as much as He loves everybody else, even the hateful self-righteous hypocrites.


and if someone thinks He approves of

taking children from their parents,
locking them in cages,
stacking those cages in overcrowded warehouses
without providing them with toothbrushes, soap, or even blankets
or...
throwing children back over the border to fend for themselves in a land they have never known,

they do not know Him at all.


-God loves, that is who He is. He says that "if any man comes to me, I will in no wise cast him out."

Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed because they were prideful, lazy, arrogant and did not lift a hand to help those in need

Behold this was the iniquity of Sodom thy sister, pride, the fulness of bread, and abundance, and the idleness of her, and of her daughters: and they did not put forth their hand to the needy, and to the poor.

Scribes and Pharisees cared little for actually helping the people who looked to them to see the love of God,
they loved their rights and privileges more.

Today, Evangelicals follow Trump and all that he stands for because they want to hold onto political power
more than they want to help the most desperate and needy in this land,

they want to stack the Supreme Court with justices that would take away gay marriage,
take away the rights of women,
and reinterpret the 14th Amendment to take away birthright citizenship
because that means more than to them than
making sure poor people won't die from sicknesses that healthcare could have prevented.

Selfish, prideful hearts obsess over "keeping what's mine" (Woe unto them)
yet blessed are you who trusts God to provide for you when you give away what is yours to help others.

By the way, you can't out-give God, He always gives you back more than you give away in His name to help others.

Jesus healed the sick everywhere he went.
It is never recorded in the gospels even once that he did not heal someone because of what other people would read into it. He often did the opposite.

He always obeyed what God the Father said because He is the Son of God.

What a bunch of lies this guy has. Not one truth. OT and NT have homosexual acts state they are vile sins. Whether it comes directly from God or through the mouths of his Prophets and Apostles, which are also Prophets, seers and revelators. Romans 1:25 - 32, "Who changed the truth of God (that's you) into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever, Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections:for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, dispiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenant breakers, without NATURAL AFFECTION, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. (that's you too)
 
In two thousand years culture has progressed somewhat from the inhumane rules, regulations, prohibitions and a weird God defending His need for ostentatious interior decoration. We no longer stone children to death for being disrespectful to their parents. We no longer treat women and children as chattel. Obsessive cleansing rituals are no longer necessary. Allowing the victor to kill women and children at the end of a war is at least frowned upon now and not the norm. And homosexuality is by most people, not considered aberrant and stoning to death is not acceptable.

Why focus on just homosexuality when so many more inhumane practices were mentioned. Why focus on homosexuality which isn't hurting anyone when we are officially destroying the lives of many in the name of stopping migration.

Why focus on homosexuality, which is not a national problem, when there are so many issues that really are problems that hurt millions of people?

I'm pretty sure our 21st century God is not overly concerned with the private sexual lives of people. Nor should you be.

, "Who changed the truth of God (that's you) into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator
The sin that really matters to God is His people turning away from his great love to give it false idols, golden calves, and evil spirits. They chose death instead of the life God offers. They chose not to love God and they suffered the consequences.

God gave them over to a reprobate mind
The evil things that happened afterward will happen to anyone who turns from God. There is no good thing apart from Him.

For many of those who are not gay, and think it is a choice that other people make, their ignorance blinds them to the truth. I can not turn from something (being attracted to women) that I was never turned toward in the first place. This verse is talking about straight people choosing to go against their nature to have sex with the opposite sex. My nature has always been same sex attraction only.
