why do people assume they know what god wants do they really  think that all gays and lesbians will go to hell

my belief is that god does not discriminate. he would accept you whatever ur sexual preference is.\n\nbut as i say, if gays are not accepted in heaven, then they'd be having the time of their lives walking on rainbows.

The only people who will go to hell are those that are not God's children.\n Because God said His children know His voice and will not follow anyone else.\nEveryone else is in unbelief...which is what will send them to hell.\n\nJOHN 3:18\n He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.\n \nIf you want the Truth go here...\nhttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/bibletruths_forbelievers/

People are so ignorant. We should all be allowed to be who ever we are. Those who call gays names like SISSY are really failing GODS test. They will be answering to him in the end, and they won't like what's coming to them believe me....

God wants everyone to be saved it is not His will that anyone shall perish. Even homosexuals have a chance at Salvation if they repent and change from their wicked ways. But, if you have a whole lot of them in one church chances are the Truth isn't been taught there; and if the pastor of that church is marrying them it's definitely isn't taught there.  Homosexuality is a SIN not only that it's unnatural and whosoever teaches it be it a pastor, church members, or society that this sinful act is right is just as sinful as the people that are doing it. NO ONE IS BORN THAT WAY; GOD DON'T MAKE MISTAKES LIKE THAT! God is a just God if He beleive in this gross sin He would have made a world with only men or a world with only women. My goodness! how can two hard bodies lay up in the bed together and call it pleasure. Farther more how can two women lay up together and call it pleasure.\n\nRomans 1:21-28\nBecause that when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in the imaginations; and their foolish hearts was darkened.\nProfessing themselves to be wise they became fools.\nWherefore God gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.  For this cause GOD GAVE THEM UP into vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature. And likewise also men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another, men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense (to pay for) of their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, GOD GAVE THEM OVER TO REPROBATE MIND (reject as worthless) to do those things which are not convenient. NEED I SAY MORE I DON'T THINK SO!

What makes you think YOU know who is going to hell?  You are arrogant and judgmental.  Just because other people don't believe the same things that you believe doesn't make them the ones that are wrong.  Religion is just an OPINION... it is not fact.  And there are lots of other OPINIONS about god and heaven and hell that are just as legitimate as your OPINION.\n\nGet off your high horse and learn some respect for others.

Some Christians actually believe that burning in hell is God's idea. They have accepted a perversion of the scriptures without ever wondering if the translations have been mis-translated.I have been a Christian 32 years and this year I actually researched the horrible untruth "Hell." The Holy Spirit will bring us into more and more truth and expose lies and false doctrines.As with lots of Christian stuff we forget parts of the Bible whilst emphasising others. This gospel is good news! I believe all die. All rise from the grave when Jesus returns and everyones life is opened up and bare before God.. Those who have a relationship with God are resurrected and receive new bodies that will never die. And those who have decided to ignore salvation and deliberately continue to do wrong things are forever lost. Unbelievers simply pass from existence. They perish. The dead know nothing. Jesus and God would never punish forever with unquenchable fire and torment. That's a pagan, heathan, wicked perversion. However upon saying that it is very hard to change your beliefs. Especially when people go years believing a doctrine and millions of others disagree and threaten curses etc.upon those who declare hell is a false doctrine. Little by little people will come to know the truth and be set free. Seek the truth and you will find it.

Well the Bible says that if you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and you accept Him as your Savior then you will be saved. I think anyone who does this will go to heaven. Some people only pull out homosexuality as the only thing in the Bible listed as an abomination and that's simply not true. Liars, gossipers, drunks, and adulterers just to name a few were also listed as abominations and no one just out right says they will go to hell so I don't think it's fair to say that someone will go to hell based on their sexual preference. Plus all sins are forgivable if you repent of them and ask God to help you I don't see why he would punish you instead of helping you. We don't know where their heart is with God so we can't knowingly say where they are going when they die.

They are deceived into thinking that satan will give them powers and places in hell. They also have their own bible written by Anton Lavey. They also think that hell isn't a place of torment and suffering. They all believe in God too but choose satan instead.\ni knew of a satanist that sacrificed himself on the train tracks because satan promised him a position in hell

AS a gay and a Christian (yes, you can be oriented to both)-cannonized text has passsges that state gays will not inherit the kingdom of God. (II Corinthians) But what does that really mean? It doesnt say that they will burn in hell. Those two things are not equivalent at all. What I see in it, is that we do not have the perfect blessing of society and may not fit into all of God's sacred institutions such as having children, traditional marriage, etc. We also are not going to be appreciated in the eyes of family values (there are certain discretions others use that I must respect) However, the Bible does not say in any way that we are condemnable by that alone. To be gay is to be oriented to same-gender attraction. Gay does not equal promisciuty, infedility, debuachary (drug use, etc) in every gay person. The Bible clearly states that God judges and loves people holistically and since it is been proven that being gay is only a part of a person, than therefore it in itself does not make one destined to eternal destruction, which is what many biggots beleive.

why would a homosexual want to be a christian anyway. why would anybody try to fit into a place that doesn't want to accept them.

Oh, I hear you on this one.  Of all the people on this earth, Christians are the most judgemental of all.  And, I was raised in the Christian church and it was always said that we should never judge, that only God can judge.  A person's sins are between them and God.  But, so many Christians forget this in their daily life.  It was also taught to me that all sins are equal, that is murder is just as bad as, say, swearing.  So, you are also right to question why homosexuality is so very bad in their eyes.  The hypocrisy is why I have fallen away, I just couldn't deal with it anymore.  I still believe in a God of sorts, but I will not subscribe to any organized religion.  It makes people crazy.

i believe in god and know that he has a purpose for my life... those who don't believe are afraid to know god because they don't understand what god is all about... and it was harsh  to say that all non Christians will go to hell... only god our father knows that ... i just hope that those who aren't Christians will ask god into their heart before it is too late for them to do anything about it...

I believe the majority of our population are lost and misguided souls. Homosexuality is immoral and an abomination to our Lord Jesus Christ. None of us are supposed to judge others, though we still do. Some of us do it openly while others only confide their opinions with someone they trust. We live in a society that is accepting and encouraging of so many sins. The truth is often hard to find if you're not looking for it or don't know where to find it. I believe we are living in the end days. The news we read and watch on tv validates the warning signs given to us in Revelations. All we can do as Christians and believers in Christ is pray for them and let his light be seen through our example. When judgement day comes, each and every one of us will bow before our Lord and proclaim that he is the one and only Lord and Saviour. If homosexuals as well as all sinners do not repent of their sins, accept God into their hearts and lives and change the way they live according to his will, they will be lost for all eternity in a firey lake.

From what I have heard from a Satanist is they believe in God but they choose Satan, because they are promised by satan position in hell.

Heron,\n\nThere are many of us Christians who believe that there are different levels of Heaven and Hell. Certainly God sees gradations. I get a little fed up with those who have the "one straight Heaven and one straight Hell" attitude.  God sees the different opportunities, circumstances, etc. that people have. He knows exactly where each individual fits.

damn good question. the sad thing is, there are people who will answer by saying we should accept this because it's part of their god's plan.
