Want to argue about politics? Healthcare reform? Taxes? Governments? You've come to the right place!
Try to keep it civil though. The rules still apply here.

Serious question, that, since you may actually find some.
Hebrews 3:12
1 corinthians 5
Pretty much the whole bible is about fighting evil and sin, in yourself and in the world.

All of those passages are instructions for people to watch themselves and encourage (not condemn or judge) others.
So no, those aren't a rebuttal.Actually YOU put Trump in the White House.

Originally posted by Meh Gerbil View PostLook up Ezekiel 16 and see why Sodom was actually condemned.
Also, read the gospels and compare everything Jesus said about homosexuality with what he had to say about being judgmental.
I understand putting homosexuality at the top of your list; however, we should endeavor to emphasis what Christ told us to emphasize."As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths." Isaiah 3:12
There is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of guilt.

So no, those aren't a rebuttal.

I hope Manic Gerbil permanently wins out the bipolar fight in you. Soon, for all our sake.
I'm not a centrist by any stretch of the imagination.Actually YOU put Trump in the White House.

You wanted scripture that said we should fight against other's sin

All better?Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

That passage is describing an internal matter among professing Christians and says absolutely nothing about the rest of society at large.
I want a passage that describes fighting the sin of the unredeemed via the law/courts/anything.
Originally posted by Sparko View PostThis is an example. And it is a sexual sin. Just keep moving those goal posts.
You provided several passages that talk about fighting against personal sin.
You provided one passage that talks about excluding people from the church.
I'll grant you one point based on a technicality; however, in context we were talking about gay marriage (or health care) so I was intending to communicate civic law.Actually YOU put Trump in the White House.
