I am always a little surprised to find that what one person
considers obedience, another person sees as legalism.
Jesus plainly gave a command in Matthew five. Do not
throw
that which is Holy to those who would trample it. It is a command straight from our Lord,
to be obeyed, not a legalistic ritual based on Mosaic law. I have great freedom in Christ but not the freedom to disobey a specific order. My question to
you is the same one I asked Judy. If those who sneer ar God's Holy word and wallow is sin the way a swine loves mud are not the hogs and the dogs of Matthew five, who is? If God has removed any longing for Him from their minds and abandoned them to their uncleanness,as
His word says He has, why do we insist on thinking that
God is too loving to ever do what He plainly says He has done?
"Splain that to me.

-I agree
with your accessment of this perversion, but would like to add that not
all sodomites are reprobated.
Jesus can also liberate this type of sinner as His grace is more than
enough to cover even this sin.
The difference in our view seem to reach into the area of legalism which
bound the Priest and the Levite while
on the road to Jericho in Luke 10:25-37. |
