@vadestine@L_L1001_TriStar@SStricklandMMA No, I would tell them that what they are engaging in is contrary to the teaching of the bible. There will be no tolerance for any contrary ideology that engages in sin or is against God's word.
@vadestine@L_L1001_TriStar@SStricklandMMA I clarified what I meant by "contrary to bible teachings". Just because I don't accept their sinful actions does not mean I hate the people committing such actions. As the other commenter said, in simple terms, I hate the sin but not the sinners.
@vadestine@SStricklandMMA Also, while the bible didn't reference the transgender ideology, it certainly comments and admonishes core tenets within the overall movement itself and other related movements
@vadestine@SStricklandMMA I am aware that I am not Jesus. The bible directly states that we are not to encourage persons to do wrong in any way, shape, or form.
@vadestine@L_L1001_TriStar@SStricklandMMA You phrased your initial response to criticize us for not loving our fellow mankind (at least that is how I interpreted it). You are incorrectly equivocating between two different aspects of this situation
@Chromeautomatic@vadestine@SStricklandMMA We don't hate them, we hate the sin. You all conflate these things to attack us on the grounds of hating people. Again, so it is clear, I have no issue with persons coming to Christ, but they must cease their sinning.
@vadestine@SStricklandMMA Where did I say this? The teaching of acceptance that surrounds churches in this modern age is to accept the person and, by extension, their contrary acts. Christians were once sinners... but Jesus loved sinners while also calling on them to repent of those sins.
@keisert1320@Rayzur2012@SStricklandMMA Loving them (as the bible says love your neighbour...) is fine; accepting them as brethren while they are still engaging in their sins isn't.
@randall_wi88891@BNONews People were killed in this incident, and you decide to desecrate their memory with sarcastic jabs? Making a mockery of this is very disgusting behaviour. What is actually wrong with you?
@HermxaB@GlobeEyeNews Not a US citizen. Calling me pathetic does not in any way, shape, or form address the points I made
Address the points I made and stop resorting to personal attacks
@HermxaB@GlobeEyeNews Iran is a sponsor for terrorists and terrorism related activity throughout the ME. HAMAS, Hezbollah, and Houthis are just some of the major terrorist organizations that they fund, and denying that these "entities" are terrorists is just very dishonest.
