You assume that because one is against sin, that one is hostile. Same thing as calling me a homophobe just becasue I detest sin. Well, if it makes you feel better, then call mt that. You need to remember that when Jesus did not stone the woman caught in sin, he did not accuse her...and yet when He sent her on her way, He said... "Go, and sin no more" If I am hostile, it is against the sin of homosexuality, and the sinful influence and death it brings to many.</font> I was under the impression that a Christian could molest all the children he wanted (they call those men priests), engage in all the homosexuality, beastiality, and any other biblical sins they choose but since Jesus died for our sins, since all men are sinners, all they have to do is accept Jesus as their lord and savior and they spend eternity in heaven. <font color=blue>You assume wrong. If these men that do those things are not exposed and booted from the catholic church(or any church)for child molestation, homosexuality, etc...then they are in danger of their souls, and MANY scriptures will reveal this if you bother to look. Among them, just a couple..Hebrews 4:1-2, 1Corinthians 10:12-13, Luke 21: 33-36, Hebrews 2:3, the book of James....many others..</font>It's a real get out of jail card, a license to sin. <font color=blue> Totally wrong. Grace is NOT a license to sin. Never was, never will be. It is written: If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God. There is a Greek word that makes a big difference in God's grace, it is prasso...which means to perform repeatedly or habitually. </font>According to your beliefs, a lot of these guys you so detest are going to be in heaven with you <font color=blue>I am not God. I am not judging anyone and saying who is or is not "going to be in heaven". I can only answer that by saying....Read all about it: </font>http://bible.com/bible_read.html
