Beating of homosexual male in Jamaica

I got the email from O'Shell last week, I think. She wanted to know what our take on the whole beating was. That she was hurt when she saw it. I wasn't goin to say anything, then someone responded to it. Here it is...
(Some of you may have received this in your inbox.)

**************************************************************

We live by the Bible as christians and whilst it is contradictory on some points the one thing it is very clear on is that a battyboy should die. Now if we are to live by the laws of the bible I dont think we can live bu some and not by others. Being selective should not be an option.

If we all dont put a stop to this future will be very dim. They (Gays) will pollute our society and Saddom and Gomarrow(Sp) will be all over again. Some one has to take a stand. What about morales dont anyone have any again these days. What about standing up for what you believe in. Like the Chrisitans of the olden days that were fed to lions and still believed in what they were doing. Soon everyone who cant get a date will consider themselves gay.

I will not accept no gay person and they deserve what they get coming to them, particularly when they choose to flaunt it in front of decent people.

Just my 2 cents, and something everyone should think about.

**************************************************************
Now my piece:

Just to clarify. Are you for the beating of the homosexuals? Should they be killed?

You are taking parts from the bible but you forget one important part. A lot of Christians today are in the practice of taking parts of the bible that suit them, and forgetting about the rest. What about the part that says, "Thou shalt not kill" (Exodus 20:13) ???

Yes homosexuality is wrong! Yes we should talk against it! But kill a man?! That's a problem in my eyes!Who are we to condemn a man to death for a sin? Who are we to punish a man for a mistake. As far as I am concerned, we are all sinners who fall short of the glory of God, yet Jesus took our place when he died on the cross. Christ died for all our sins, yours, mine and the homosexuals. How then, can you think it's acceptable to punish a homosexual?

You speak of Soddom and Gommorah, that place in history known for homosexuality and all immoral behaviour. Sin is sin! If you condemn homosexuality, you need to condemn all acts that go against the will and commandments of God.
Would you condemn the aldulterers and fornicators to death? Why not kill children who disobey their parents? Thieves? Persons who lust? Do you condemn only homosexuals or do you condemn every sinner?

When we commit a sin, has all hope of God forgiving us, if we repent, been dashed?

When I saw the pictures of the man getting beaten, I cried. I felt pain for him. I saw a man being beaten, I felt they would have killed him if they got the chance to. Would they have been seen as good, for cleansing our country?

Yes, he may have been flaunting his sin, being proud of his lifestyle. But how many sins do you see in today's society being put on display, PROUDLY??

I'd like to know where in the Bible says a homosexual should be killed. I'm not contradicting you. I'm just don't know of it, and would like to know.

Morality is on the decline. It is a fact, not just here at home, but worldwide. We have to guard ourselves and our loved ones from it as much as possible. Speaking out against it will sometimes put us in trouble, but if we feel impressed to speak, speak. I personally don't think Jamaica can get better. We could change the government, ruling party, and some things would change. But the majority of problems we have now, would continue to get worse.

God soon come. Watch and be hopeful. Spread his word and try to enlighten as many as you can. That is our mission. And prepare your own heart for his return.

Good to know this blog still works. I thought Michael Lee-Chin bought it out...

Unto the post- I agree with you whole-heartedly. How someone could speak of killing another in the name of the Bible is beyond me. If that person really knew the Bible, his stance would be to encourage us all to help them to see what God would want, and turn to Him.

But then again, that would be rational.
