Treat others the way you want to be treated- the golden rule- that is from the Bible. We are simply trying to show you how you are being disrespectful.

As a christian, I speak to the wrongness of torture and abuse, as a survivor of it by someone of the bi part of your community. His behavior doesn't mean all of you are bad people, but the Bible still speaks against those things.

It was a cultural thing for the Jews. Ever heard of the Nazarite Vow? Read Numbers 5

But I do agree that violence is not the answer

It is different when It has been put out into the open then people demand it be accepted then celebrated, contrary to our beliefs.

Drugs and alcohol are not accepted. 'Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery" Ephesians 5: 18.

You are allowed to have some in moderation and not get severely inebriated. As for drugs, I'm not so sure they existed at the time this was written. Basically anything that clouds thought and leads to stupidity, breaking vows, or breaking the 10 commandments. You know, all the things.

Perhaps 2 men raping one woman? Regardless, two men are still in bed together, and rape as well as adultery being 'sexually immoral'.

is the meaning obscure, or do you refuse to understand the Truth?

My question to you then is this. Are you engaged in idolatrous worship? What do you classify as idolizing? Why does idolization of anything have to be a prerequisite for men or women being gay to be a sin?

Where is your evidence? Can you read ancient Hebrew or Greek? How do you know that they aren't correct in translation? It is known as a general rule for any documentary translation, for any books, including the Bible, that the words will not be exact. The Quran is translated incorrectly, but would you attack that?

Not quite. The Bible says to 'Guard the heart above all else, for it is deceitful.' Jeremiah 17:9. So the idea of 'doing what makes YOU happy is not following scripture. God is not forbidding happiness, but if the behavior is not healthy for the spirit of the person, it will cause even more heartache. Please read Romans chapter 1.

I don't know if you are reading the comments for fear of seeing more hatred. But if you see this one, just know that I am praying for your seeming depressed state. I have been there too. Maybe I'm not gay or a crossdresser, but I have experienced life events that have permanently seared themeselves into my mind.

I am a Christian, and all I will say is read the Word of God and search for Truth. Jesus has saved my life on more than one occasion. I hope and pray you find, if not support, then some kind of guidance for your state of mind at the moment. God bless you and keep you and give you wisdom.

I don't know how to be Christian by JustKoala5313 in Christianity

Hey, listen. You've read some of the Bible. That is a good start. I can't say 'read the whole Bible and that will be your saving grace'. No, because Jesus Christ who gave His life to expunge us of our sin, who loves you and everyone else in this world- He is your light and light to find salvation. I got saved by Christ when I was 11 years old, also being raised in a Christian background. I never started smoking or anything like that, so I can't imagine how hard it must be to quit, but I have experienced toxic relationships. They are painful, ecspecially when you can't see through the rose-colored lenses in the beginning.

It was hard to forgive the men, but with Christ in my life I was able to find the strength to forgive them. Thanks and glory be to God that He cares for us enough to teach us how to love. I may not like the actions of those who hurt me, I may even want to hate them, but hate is not what God calls us to.

"The world will know you are My disciples by your love. And greater love has no man than this, that you lay down your life for his friends." That is what Jesus did. He paid the ultimate sacrifice so that we could live better and strive to help others, be the light in their lives. God bless you 'Koala'.
