. . . is that it makes them think their heterosexual sins aren’t so bad.
As The Simpsons illustrated here, we all like to have people out there who are worse sinners than us.
Moe: Every bar needs a world class drunk.
Lenny: Someone who makes our alcoholism seem less raging.
After all, because the world thinks that God grades on a curve then as long as some people are worse sinners than you then you must be OK!
The truth, of course, is that while some sins are worse than others, they all separate us from God and deserve eternal punishment. So the “Christian” Leftists who push the LGBTQX agenda are kidding themselves by thinking it somehow sanitizes their heterosexual sins. But without Jesus they’ll have the same fate as unrepentant LGBTQX people:
Revelation 21:8 But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.
Yes, I know that “Christian” Leftists deny that passage along with countless others. It is another sign that they are wolves. Hopefully they will repent before it is too late, or upon death they’ll realize that affirming LGBTQX sins was just self-serving idolatry on their part.
Romans 1:32 Though they know God’s righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.
I’ve been saying this for years. Why don’t those interviewed by the media ever point out how the media always focus on homosexual sins? It’s so they can feel good about their own.

That’s a good point there.

I’ve felt the same way for quite some time. I think it’s a corruption of the “live and let live” philosophy, or perhaps it’s the real point of it. In any case, it strikes me that it is the proper response to those who think those of us who oppose sexual immorality “doth protest too much”. Hey, I don’t deny my own struggles with temptation. I simply don’t try to rationalize it or attempt to legitimize it.

Exactly. I’m glad to admit that this could be my life verse: 1 Timothy 1:15 The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost.
So it isn’t that we are pretending not to sin, just that we don’t say that sins aren’t sins. Isaiah 5:20 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!
