Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and in the Spirit of our God." (I CORINTHIANS 6:9-11).
No human is perfect otherwise we wouldn't need GOD. EVERYONE struggles daily with something.I struggle with being a reviler and other issues every waking moment of my life and wonder if I'm a valid Christian,but I think the fact that someone DOES worry about it lends some validity to their walk with GOD.Will I make heaven? Will a gay person make heaven? Only GOD knows and anyone who says different is NOT to be trusted at their word.Good luck in this thread,you're gonna need it.LOL
re·vile v. re·viled, re·vil·ing, re·viles v.tr. To assail with abusive language; vituperate. See Synonyms at scold.

How could anyone be "invalid"...doesn't Jesus preach love and forgiveness of Everyone? I thought that was what Christianity was supposed to be about. It's "Love thy neighbor" not "love thy Straight neighbor"!
