I got this "conversation" on my Tumblr blog. I hope everyone could get an insight from this.
Question : Can you be Christian and still support gays? I don't consider being homosexual a sin, and I love going to Pride Parades and giving support and even signing petitions to legalize gay marriage.
Response :
You can be, but you shouldn’t be.
God does not like homosexuality. It’s a sin. He wants a man and a woman to be together. That’s how He designed it to be.
Here’s some supporting verses though…
“Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites,” -1 Corinthians 6:9
“For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.” -Romans 1:26-27
”We also know that the law is made not for the righteous but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sinful, the unholy and irreligious, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers, for the sexually immoral, for those practicing homosexuality, for slave traders and liars and perjurers—and for whatever else is contrary to the sound doctrine” -1 Timothy 1:9-10
It doesn’t matter if you don’t consider it a sin. It’s God’s opinion that matters, and we should respect Him and agree with Him no matter what.
God bless (:
