Is it the 'Christian' thing to call for killing all the "homos"? [W:59]

No man is pure. So now he thinks he is Christ.

Seems like another David Koresh.

If his god is as petty as he is, it doesn't deserve worship.

You caught one. Seven more to go. This guy is hilarious and never uses the Bible at all. He just makes up stuff and pretends that it is in the Bible when it really isn't there at all. What the hell is he reading? A Sears and Roebuck Catalog? Those things that he says about sodomites isn't even in the Bible. He made them completely up.

I don't know that it is that obvious. It may be too you, but those that haven't read the bible and never will (non christian) may not know that.

Ministry is just for Christians that seek them. And most denominations disagree with one another. Thus you guys are to busy saying how the Catholics or the Baptists or the atheists, Muslims, and Buddhists are wrong to know your real enemy.

Too much ignorance in one post to address. Suffice it to say, you are waaaaaay off base.

I am not sure I have seen them even on any base yet in the religious forum.

I've been Googling around but haven't yet learned if this self-styled pastor has any training at all. He apparently isn't degreed, and I'd be surprised if he'd attended any divinity school. There is a reason that his church is described as "completely independent," and there is a reason for this.

A lot of Fundamental Baptist are graduates of Bob Jones University. There is also an unaccredited school that they attend called, "Slidell Baptist Seminary". This guy is similar to Creighton Lovelace. You can google him on by typing in "Creighton Lovelace Koran". He put a sign up at his church that said, "The Koran should be flushed." The local chapter of the Southern Baptist Convention asked him to take it down. He refused. They said, "You must submit to our authority." Creighton proclaimed, "I don't have to submit to another except God and the King James Bible." Their church withdrew from the Southern Baptist Convention.

Here is the article.

Pastor Steven Anderson was born and raised in Sacramento, CA. At age 18, he travelled throughout Germany and Eastern Europe for 3 months serving in local independent Baptist churches, studying foreign languages, and getting experience in the ministry. It was on this trip that he met his future wife, Zsuzsanna, while out soul-winning in the streets of Munich, Bavaria. He eventually lead her to the Lord, and they were married shortly thereafter. They have been married for over 13 years, and God has blessed them with 7 beautiful children.

Pastor Anderson started Faithful Word Baptist Church on December 25, 2005. He holds no college degree but has well over 140 chapters of the Bible memorized word-for-word, including approximately half of the New Testament. Today, most Baptist churches are started by Bible colleges. However, the Bible makes it clear that the church is the pillar and ground of the truth, not a school. Faithful Word Baptist Church is a totally independent Baptist church, and Pastor Anderson was sent out by a totally independent Baptist church to start it the old-fashioned way by knocking doors and winning souls to Christ.

God has blessed Faithful Word Baptist Church tremendously. Thousands have been saved, many have been baptized, and many more have learned to win souls both door-to-door and in their daily lives.

I had already read this article when I posted that Anderson apparently has no degree.

Moderator's Warning:
Cut the baiting and flaming out and STICK TO THE TOPIC.

Specific to a certain poster, if you think someone is "flaming" or "baiting" then report it. Doing nothing but derailing a thread by throwing out accusations of such things is baiting in and of itself and can result in action against you

Arizona preacher who has already had a visit or two from the Secret Service after he called for the death of President Obama, has posted a recent sermon on YouTube in which he cites Leviticus 20:13 as justification for killing "the homos like God recommends, you wouldn’t have all this AIDS running rampant.”

He has also in a previous sermon ranted about "lying, racist Jews". So I have to wonder why he is citing a text which originated with and is still seen as the foundation of Judaism, if he hates Jews so much.

The video of the sermon calling for the execution of "homos"

How can there be such a wide range of beliefs in one religion? When we can see groups such as the United Church of Christ accepting gay marriage and placing a GLBT member on the Executive Council to churches such as the one supporting the preacher in the video, we have to wonder - Who is a Christian? When the outsider asks this question, the answer almost always falls back to the "No True Scotsman" argument.

To answer the question in the title...no, it is not a Christian belief. I suspect you know that and posted this simply as flame bait.

I, a non-believer, don't see this man's views as being Christian but how is anyone able to say who is and who is not Christian, when we see such a wide range of statements from people who all call themselves Christian.


also your sig is so cute, not true but cute. I especially like the bit "vote for me or you won't get your money and food" because that is exactly what the Republicans are saying they intend to do.

I didn't say he wasn't a Christian. I said it wasn't a Christian belief which I use interchangeably for widely accepted beliefs or tenets.

Funny how you try to change the topic when you are called out on your flame baiting with more flame baiting. You can't even remotely prove that accusation and you know it.

I think you answered your own question.

But as one Christian, my opinion is that to be a Christian is to follow the teachings of Christ, and, in no way did Christ teach us that we should take it upon ourselves to condemn others for their actions and murder them in cold blood.

That doesn't mean Christians should accept homosexuality. It's a classic case of "love the sinner, hate the sin," IMO.

They're trolling and/or cowards and it's not really anonymous if you've got an "internet persona" like the user names here. If this was japanese forums and everyone shows as anonymous, you'd see less douchebaggery like that.

They're trolling and/or cowards who wouldn't dare say this to our face, and it's not really psychologically anonymous if you've got an "internet persona" like the user names here. If this was japanese forums and everyone shows as anonymous, you'd see less douchebaggery like that.

Well If I am way off base enlighten me. I am open minded and I personally believe as you believe, most Christians aren't that way.

If I am saying something wrong than it isn't right to let me continue.

Just saying I am way off base but not saying why is worthless.

Please elaborate I joined a discussion forum to discuss.

Who is them?

I have seen people accusing God of their own prejudices, if that is what you mean by them.

Maybe I am just a little too old. I don't really have an online persona. No Facebook, no Twitter and so forth. But yeah I suppose if you have all of that is less anonymous.
