The thought of commiting to the sin, no matter what it is, is what you call temptation. This something any believer deals with. For us to fall, even after repenting, is falling under the temptation. Do you think that if I been a stealer all my life, then repented, then, after a while, ended up thinking about it and doing it, we are not forgiven? For us to fall is something natural. We are not perfect beings. |

why is that we have to be perfect to get into heaven. nobody is perfect. but we h to be the most wonderful angelif we wt to fit gods standards. people ma mistakes all their life and that marks that not everyone can live up to god's standards. so if god wanted all of us to fit those stardards hen this owrld would be full of priests cause 80 percent of the preists are not what they seem and only 20 pecent are these perfect angels. and another thing who cares about if people decide to be come bisexual, gay or lesbian then why are then automatically confined as defying the will of god. tat is totally poposterous. of o where to turn gay would go strait to hell. it doesn't even make any sence.

My thoughts were that God was all-loving, thus he would love everyone, bisexuals and homosexuals alike

We don't have to be perfect to get into heaven. If that was what was required, then we would all go to hell. I agree with no one is perfect. When it says live up to God's standards, it is saying to follow them the best you can. The Bible is our guide on how we live. Though we will never get up to the perfection of God, we can get as close as we can. |

God DOES love all people, he just hates the sin. And as for people getting into heaven, so many won't be let in, because they are not staying true to God's word. God knows everyone, inside out.

FINALLY, someone gets what I was saying. God loves the person, but hates the sin. This goes for anyone, and any sin. He loves EVERYONE, and hates EVERY sin.
I agree with you on who will get to heaven. Taking the narrow path that is the path of Christ will be a hard path to follow. Many will fall, come the last days. |

...But that's where it gets tangled up. Why would he, in his right mind, create sinners if he hated sins so much? If two girls are in a loving relationship together, wouldn't it be evil of God to look down love, regardless of the circumstances?
It's obvious that this whole "OMG GHAY IS WRRRONG!" was just another method the Romans/whatever used to prevent behaviors that they didn't like.

When Adam and Eve ate the apple?
But i was also once told that Adam and Eve's story was an inspired tales by the Babylonians....
Whatever it is, my opinion is everyone's actually born good, its the influence we face in life that will cause us to sin.
