Their consciences are not seared. They are not going to hell, they are not condemned. That. Is. Your. Opinion. Opinions are not fact. I know each and every scripture you have quoted or will ever think about quoting because I am quite versed in the bible myself. It makes no difference to me how many times you try to use your scripture logic. These lovely LGBTQ folks are living their best lives, serving their God and being loved by those who don't give a damn what they do in their bedrooms or who they have sex with. The end.
Your agape love shines brightly, trobesmom. If they weren't already blinded by their bigotry and corrupt interpretations of scripture, their spirits would be bathed in your light.
You shouldn't kid yourself. God hates homosexuality. Says so in the Bible. God also hates people who eat shrimp. Also says so in the Bible.
So called Christians who practice homosexuality are in for a big surprise on judgement day. And the people who partake in shrimp eating are going to be just as surprised.
I wear mixed fabrics without apology or explanation.

If the Bible truth be known, it would be a far shorter list if we were to compile the things that God ACTUALLY LIKES about human behavior rather than what he hates about human behavior. The latter list of 'hates' far outweighs the former list of 'likes'. In fact, I believe that only two or three human beings ever found favor with God. I believe they were Moses, Enoch and Elijah. And, of course, Jesus. God regretted having created humans since they simply couldn't live up to His expectations of them. The reason being is that they were ...human.
But then, there are those today who are bending over backward to win favor with God in order to escape the punishment of eternal torment. And, with that kind of belief forever hanging over their heads like the sword of Damocles I guess you can't really blame them. This is why it's so important for them to repeatedly quote scripture rather than to think for themselves with the mind that God gave them. They actually believe that, whenever they quote scripture, they're a tad closer to obtaining the Golden Ticket that permits them to enter the Chocolate Factory.
It's going to be a rude awakening for you when you pass on into the next life and find that He is real and that He is judging you according to your sins.

Just the opposite with the unbelievers.

That is why you need to consider that I may indeed be right and take the necessary precautions.
If you read your Bible, the Lord will instill faith in you (Romans 10:17) by which you can be saved (Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 5:1-2).
You certainly have a choice as to whether or not you will cultivate faith in your life; and you will be held accountable for that decision.
And you may say again, That is your opinion.
To which I will say, consider Paschal's Wager.
You sound like a couple of schoolyard bullies.
Do you really think God wants you to threaten people? Is that what being a Christian is? Using a book to beat people over the head with fear of God's rejection? How sick is that. And these are the straight ones who simply believe in acceptance of others. I'd hate to see you two on an LGBTQ person.
The utter ecstasy and delight you demonstrate in your salivation over the idea of the rejection by God of others will be something you have to answer for. Stop pointing your fingers and look to your own souls.

There seems to be no way to reach the religious barbarians, MQ!
