This is God’s ordained arrangement, one man, and one woman, together to make a family with children who are created in the image of God to be image bearers of God for His glory. Not this abomination which is a perversion of God’s will and blasphemous.
It should literally make you gag and want to upchuck. It is not, “cute” or, “adorbs.” It is not brave of them or courageous. It is sad, sick, and should make us pity them. They need the gospel. They need to be saved from their sins and reconciled to God.
Meanwhile here in… Idaho! One of the most conservative states in the Union… Uh oh! Gay marriage or jail for you Pastor!!!
This is what the Left has planned for us. Deep in their hearts they hate God and everyone who is for Him. They are soft on their tyranny now, but wait, soon they will have us rounded up, executed, and buried in mass unmarked graves.
You say that kind of thing can’t happen… Read your history. Every immoral revolution has executed the people or dogs they claim were holding them back from evolving. Instead of Jews it will be Christians who are to blame.
Just because it isn’t a “Church” and the couple make money off of performing a wedding, they are being compelled by the laws of Sodom and Gomorrah to do the will of the Whore of Babylon and the Beast. Next they’ll be telling us we have to prepare recipes for human baby stew for the satan worshipers if you own a restaurant. Does anyone remember when the sight or thought of two men kissing was revolting? How about two women doing the same? It was revolting until the media started forcing on us. Then two women became sexy instead of revolting. People told me, “Don’t be such a prude! It is hot.” I remember telling everyone then that this is what would be happening. Nobody cared or believed me. Well, it is still revolting and disgusting. God calls it and abomination. It should cause our stomachs to turn, just like blasphemy should. Those that give hearty approval to such things will also be cheering in the streets as we are drug away to death camps.

Hey and while we’re at it let’s make those evil Christians Pastors turn over their sermons to be scrutinized by the Gestapo for hate speech violations… Welcome to the Peoples Democratic Republic of Soviet Secular Atheist Communist Anti-Christ Baby Killing Baal worshiping… Revelation 6:10 and they cried out with a loud voice, saying, “How long, O Lord, holy and true, will You refrain from judging and avenging our blood on those who dwell on the earth?” So the answer to all of this is, repent and put your faith in Christ! We are all wretched sinners and without the atoning work of Christ on the cross to accomplish that which all of our corrupt works could not, the payment for sin’s debt. Jesus paid it all, because He is our good God and we are totally dependent on Him.
This isn’t related to your post. It’s just that you have a great review of a beautiful NASB here, and you use the translation so I thought you might know. I haven’t been able to find it anywhere.
When they put an “f” in the cross reference, what does that mean? For example, in Mark 11:22 there is a reference to Matt 17:20; 21:21f. What significance is the f after the verse number?
NASB happens to be my favorite as well, mostly because of the Lockman Foundation’s philosophy of being as literally accurate as possible. I use an Open Bible NASB and a parallel NASB-Amplified Bible.

It means, “following verse” if there is an, “ff” it means, “following verses.”

Matt 21:21f would mean Matt 21:21-22.

Love thy neighbor does not mean to lie to them, and let them travel the road to hell unimpeded. Love they neighbor means to get in front of them, and try to warn them any way I can, that they are headed to hell. God’s love is perfect, but it isn’t His only attribute. He is holy, righteous, wrathful, and just. These are just a few. God can forgive same sex attraction, but how will a person know to ask Him, if all of you pro-perversion people won’t tell them they are in sin? Nope, they’ll just go on about their lives thinking everything is fine, and God loves them they way the are, and doesn’t care about sin at all. That is a lie straight from hell. God commands every man to repent. I am completely confident in His ability to cause repentance in a gay person, and I am just as confident of His ability to justify them. He has told us how He does this. The means that He has ordained is the gospel. If a person won’t repent of their sin, but says they love Christ, they are a liar. If you say you love Christ, and you know that He has paid for your sins on the cross, by having the wrath of God poured out on Him, and then you looking at Christ on the cross in His excruciation, and then turn to commit an act of perversion to satisfy your own fleshly lusts, you are saying, “I love myself more than you Jesus. Thanks for taking my beatings and all…” That is not a good thing to do, or a good attitude to have towards Christ’s sacrifice. Yes, we are all hypocrites. Yes, we all have sin that we commit after becoming a Christian. The difference is what we do with it. If I sin, and know it, then I can come to Christ in repentance, and fight against the sin the rest of my life, and believe me, I am fighting against sins every day in my life, but for some reason people don’t want to acknowledge homosexuality as sin. For some reason they want us to accept it, and call the abomination of homosexuality good. They wan’t us to celebrate it. Well the word of God is very clear. Homosexuality is called an abomination, sexual immorality, perversion, and unnatural. This is all through the word of God, not just the Old Testament, which most people are ignorant about. Lying is also called an abomination, and God says that all liars shall have their part in the lake of fire. Have you ever told a lie? Without repentance of sin, and faith in Christ to justify us, we would never know God’s grace and mercy personally. If you truly love gay people you will do as God says, and tell them the truth in love, which is, “You are in sin. If you don’t repent, and stay in your sins, God will judge you by His law, because He is a just, and holy God, He must punish lawbreakers, and you will go before Him with no defense. You will be guilty, and sent to hell for all eternity, where each moment is worse than the one before it. You will have His wrath poured out on you for eternity. I don’t want to see that happen to you. Please turn from your sins, all of them, and ask God to forgive you based on what Jesus accomplished on the cross. If you will do that Christ will forgive you. He will impute His righteousness to you, and you can go to be with Him when you die, and experience true grace and mercy. How will they know to repent, if we lie to them? Which is more kind, to tell them the difficult truth, and let it be between them and God, or to lie to them knowing that you had they gospel, and instead you lied to them, and because of that, they are still headed for hell?

Funny, I find your bible reviews quite informative.
Oh well. Feet of clay.
The problem here, Bob, is it doesn’t much sound like ‘love’. More like the sour stink of curdled self-righteousness and bigotry. More like the father who teaches his son respect by battering him close to death. The guiding hand of a chainsaw in the hand of a bigot. You are just so certain, anyone might be mistaken for thinking you think you ARE God. But you’re just Bob!
Thankfully, Our Father is gloriously different.
Bob help you.

Your comment was soooo loving….(sarcasm) What we have here kids is a person accusing me of the things they are guilty of. The Bible is clear. None are without sin. You are a sinner. I am a sinner. Homosexuality is a sin. Love does not condone sins. It calls them out, so a person can repent. I am not God. You are not God. We don’t get to decide how we want to be Christian. God has told us how the people of the Faith are to be in His word. A loving parent doesn’t smile while their child shoots heroin in their veins. A loving parent tries to stop them. Eternity is a long time to be wrong. Loving doesn’t mean accepting all things without discernment. I wouldn’t accept a false teacher in the Church. I wouldn’t accept a Church treasurer who embezzles money. I wouldn’t accept a preaching elder who was an adulterer, and I wouldn’t accept homosexuality as a righteous attribute of any person.
