IMO if this were an ideal universe, when you got to the gates of Heaven you were presented with two questions and compelled to answer honestly;

1. If I had told you when you were young that no matter what you did, you would not be rewarded with a place in Heaven, would you have obeyed my laws and loved me anyway?

Anyone who answers 'No' is turned away.

2. Do you believe you deserve to be in Heaven alongside God?

Anyone who answers 'Yes' is turned away.

Why are you looking for answers from us OP? Ask God your questions and he will answer. Simple as that..

Unless your the type of christian who relies on others for the answers.

If you developed a working relationship with Jesus, the Holy spirit and God you would find the answers come easily.

Personally I've never asked God the question you asked but it seems like a good question.

Bottom line.... sin is sin
We are all accountable to Almighty God and the books will be open on our lives when we face him.

Make good choices in life...
Recognize what is sin and repent and ask the lord to help us turn away from sin with the guidance of the Holy Spirit

We live in period of grace and thank Jesus for his blood atonement.

God is the same yesterday, today, and forever and holy.

No one is perfect including me but he expects us to live according to his will not our own

Re: why do "Christians " abhor homosexuality because the Bible condemns but most are ok with divorce and remarry when the Bible says it adultery
I'm a Christian and I believe homosexuality is a sin and that God is displeased with it but why is it that the majority of "Christians " believe that it's ok to divorce your spouse and remarry when Jesus himself forbids it ..

The only exception he gave is to the man ....he said if a woman commits fornication (sexual sin) against her husband then the man can remarry but he never addressed the woman

What say ye
 Quoting: Simple_Man


There are NO exceptions. Under Jewish customs a betrothed couple were regarded as husband and wife before the relationship became sexual after the wedding.

If during the betrothal period, which was about a Year, the betrothed wife committed fornication with another man, the husband was free to put her away.

This is what Joseph wanted to do when he discovered Mary was pregnant!

If the wife commits adultery AFTER the wedding has taken place. The man has TWO options. He could forgive her, if she repented, or he could remain separate from her if she didn't.

He DOES NOT have the third option of divorcing her to marry someone else. The ONLY time he can remarry is if his wife dies!

This is what the Word of God teaches. Any other teaching that deviates from this is heresy!

Today we have Pastors on their 2nd, 3rd or even 4th marriages!!!

They are ALL adulterers, and are of the Apostate Church which is going to be destroyed when the Lord comes for those who are keeping His marriage covenant sacred.

The Lord is not coming for fornicators adulterers and homosexuals!

My bible-thumping-married-in-aunt deleted my wife and I off of facebook because my wife pointed out she was living in sin herself. She was in riteous attack mode and got shut the fuck down. We got a hell of a kick out of it XD.

being Gay is not a sin... its a abomination
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 15888117


Doesn't matter .....neither a homosexual or an adulterer will enter into the Kingdom of. Heaven.....that's what the inspired Word of God in the Bible says

That's not what I said

That's what the bible said

You either believe or you don't

And most professing Christians don't believe what Jesus taught about adultery

They just don't ....and they are hypocrites
 Quoting: Simple_Man


That is why at first only 000.1% of the population of mankind shall be able to enter Heavens. This does not mean people do not repent in Hell when are given final chance at final judgement, sadly for the masses of mankind they will experience Hell before any type of salvation will come.

I believe it's wrong to divorce and remarry as well.

Our issue is that we're in the middle of another transition but this time it's homosexuality.

Give it 20 more years and homosexuality will be as acceptable and the adultery of divorce and remarriage.

When I was 22 I fell in love with a woman who was 42 and had previously been married and her husband divorced her just because

We wanted to get married and spend our lives together but we both believed what the Bible said about getting remarried when divorce is involved

She had been divorced and the bible said she couldn't be remarried .... We both believed what the Bible said so we ended our relationship after 3 years ...it was absolutely the hardest thing I've ever done ... I grew up as an abused child verbally and physically and without love from my parents ...this lady showed me unconditional love and I would've crossed a thousand deserts just to spend one hour with her ...

Yet my conscious wouldn't let me because I knew that the Word of God was true and that God was displeased with the relationship

So knowing how my conscious constantly reminded me of how God viewed the relationship I was in and that I was convicted in my heart that Gods Word is true .....I was just curious to how other "Christians " deal with it in their conscious ....do they believe it's wrong because the Bible says adulteress relationships are wrong ? ...do they believe the Bible was wrong on that subject ? .... do they believe that those scriptures don't apply to them ?

In all honesty I am just curious

 Quoting: Simple_Man


The Christian walk is a battle. We have to fight our own flesh to live out our faith!

We have to fight our own flesh NOT to steal, lie, covet, murder and commit adultery!

With the power of the Holy Spirit we can win this fight.

Unfortunately, many Christians have embraced the false teaching that we cannot possibly live a righteous life so they don't even bother!

So when they get married and start having problems, they're quick to get a divorce and marry someone else.

The reasoning is God loves them unconditionally and will forgive them.

They fail to understand that they have to stop sinning to receive forgiveness.

Remarriage after divorce is adultery. You can't ask God to forgive you and then continue on in it!

You have to separate yourself from the person and remain celibate or return to your spouse.

This it what many fail to grasp!

Marriage is serious business and millions of Christians who are in 2nd, 3rd or even 4th marriages are going to find out the hard way just how serious the marriage covenant is to the Lord.

Often times, when those in unlawful marriages are confronted, they become very defensive and adamant that God has accepted their marriages.

This is not true.

One brother, who had just lost his wife in a car accident, wanted to know wether she made it to heaven.

I told him only the Lord knows the answer to that question.

Consider the facts.

She was on her 4th marriage to him. This was his 1st marriage.

Many people had come to her in Church and told her that her marriage was unlawful. She told them she doesn't want to serve a God who regards her marriage as adultery.

The day before the crash someone told her that her marriage was unlawful.

The morning of the accident she was still very bitter about it and mentioned it.

She died on her way to work.

Millions of Christians in unlawful marriages, are under God's wrath and don't even realise it!

The fact that they've NOT experienced it yet is just the mercy of God.

That mercy is running out fast.

For when the rapture occurs all those in unlawful marriages will be left behind!

If you are catholic, and follow the catholic doctrines, you have bigger problems than worrying about an unlawful marriage.

Faith in Yeshua (Jesus) alone is the only Way to the Father (Creator) in heaven. The catholic church will not take you there. Yeshua said He was the ONLY way to the Father. No one else, and no institution or church can do that.

Re: why do "Christians " abhor homosexuality because the Bible condemns but most are ok with divorce and remarry when the Bible says it adultery
My first husband, whom I never denied sexually, not once, asked my best friend to sleep with him the night before we were married.

Then slept with my cousin once, when we were married.

Wouldn't hold a job, drank and spent the money I earned at the strip club. He also hit me.

I married him when I was 16.

If I was supposed to be okay with all of that and stay with him, I see no reason to be born at all.

If God intended us to be as cattle, then he should have made us as cattle.

I don't believe any of that bullshit.

I believe our bible has been changed over time, so much so to be unrecognizable.

What is there is spoken in parables.

I don't believe that Man could be trusted with the word of God.

It is in our hearts when we are born. I knew right from wrong, even as a very little child, before I was told.

My ex husbands brother is a minister (not a very good one). When my serial cheating ex was on his second ho I think his brother was living through him, he thought his adultery was so great and lied for him, told me he talked to my ex and believed he wasn't having an affair. What they didn't know was I already had all kinds a proof (pictures, emails, etc).

I also saw this so called ministers emails to my husband. If you live in Tazewell, Virginia and go to church I feel for you. If one of the ministers in your church has a brother who is recently divorced and has a new "girlfriend" ironically named Faith from the Philippines change churches.

Re: why do "Christians " abhor homosexuality because the Bible condemns but most are ok with divorce and remarry when the Bible says it adultery
My first husband, whom I never denied sexually, not once, asked my best friend to sleep with him the night before we were married.

Then slept with my cousin once, when we were married.

Wouldn't hold a job, drank and spent the money I earned at the strip club. He also hit me.

I married him when I was 16.

If I was supposed to be okay with all of that and stay with him, I see no reason to be born at all.

If God intended us to be as cattle, then he should have made us as cattle.

I don't believe any of that bullshit.

I believe our bible has been changed over time, so much so to be unrecognizable.

What is there is spoken in parables.

I don't believe that Man could be trusted with the word of God.

It is in our hearts when we are born. I knew right from wrong, even as a very little child, before I was told.

The Bible does say adultery is a reason for divorce because he knows it is one of the most painful experiences someone can go through.

I'm a Christian and I believe homosexuality is a sin and that God is displeased with it but why is it that the majority of "Christians " believe that it's ok to divorce your spouse and remarry when Jesus himself forbids it ..

The only exception he gave is to the man ....he said if a woman commits fornication (sexual sin) against her husband then the man can remarry but he never addressed the woman

What say ye

Do you really want an answer or is your title a rhetorical question?

Here is the answer:

GOD, not Christians, called sodomy and related acts between men an abomination.

Take it up with God if you do not approve of His message.


As for adultery, it is one of the Ten Commandments. Christ said that due to the hardness of the people's hearts, divorce would be permitted.

He said nothing about permitting sodomy.
