So...I think I was supposed to post on this thing like two weeks ago...oops! Sorry, so many more important things to do. Did anyone see Sean Penn's AMAZING speech last night at the Oscars? Wow, definitely a man to inspire the masses. What's even better is that while he isn't gay himself, he really just believes in the movement to make all have equal rights! Personally, I think as Christians, we should be embracing all walks of life...we do anyways right? You know that person that sits next to you in church every week cheats on her taxes every year? Or that man you work with lies all the time? Oh and that friend of yours that you take care of every week when she comes home drunk, yeah that's what we call loving an alcoholic. Isn't it interesting how we can CHOOSE to love some people despite their life choices, but for others we immediately put up the wall. Sounds very Christ-like to me. I still remember that quote from Ghandi once, "I like your Christ, but I don't like your Christians." Hmmm...a little food for thought.

A sin is a sin. No one is greater than another. Evven then, as Christians, we are called not to judge. That is God's job. We are merely to love and help guide those that wander of the path back onto the path of the straight and narrow.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you would say this! Being gay is CLEARLY wrong, as seen in many many passages of the Bible. We can't be friends with people who are spitting in Jesus' face! He died for them and they are ignoring Him completely. Bad company corrupts good morals. If you are friends with one of those people they will think you are condoning their lifestyle... You have to be firm with them, and show them that heterosexuality is the only way we were made.
ReplyDeleteUgh, Sean Penn is just another one of thse lost people that become an actor because they have no idea who they truly are and want to avoid finding out. Why in the world do our entertainers think that they get to weigh in on our politics simply because they have a microphone??
ReplyDeleteHe's just a man with words, since when have we become afraid of words?! hmmm....truth is truth.
