What does God think?

It seems so many people coming under fire for comments they make about the gay and lesbian community in our country. I do know that I was defriended on Face book by at least one individual because I quoted some verses from the Bible and stated what I think. I don't think it matters much what I or others think. If we come off as anti-gay it really doesn't matter much. It does matter what God thinks. If it is as some of us think the Bible says, the gay and lesbian community are the ones that need to be worried. God loves people, he knocks on their hearts door trying to come into their lives. He takes all just as they are, there are no bargaining points. If your are an Adulterer, you come just as you are. If you steal, you come just as you are. If the Bible be true and I believe it is, then Homosexuality is a sin as are other things like respect of persons, stealing, murder, adultery, Idolatry and the list can go on. God does not create us as gay any more than he creates us as an adulterer. It is choices we make in life that get us there. That is my belief and I would probably be called a bigot for it. It doesn't matter what I think, I have been wrong before. It does matter what God thinks. You can interpret the Bible any way you want, rewrite it if you want. God is still in control and it does matter what he thinks. When we stand before God do you think he will look at LVZ's revised version of the Bible or what he inspired in the beginning? He is God. We do need to treat people with respect and dignity. It is not OK to mistreat a gay person anymore than it is any other sinful person. We may not agree with abortion, but that does not make it right to kill the abortion doctor. We may not agree with homosexuality, but we still answer to God if we mistreat his children. All I really want to say it does matter what God says on this subject. God wrote or at least inspired others to write the book. There are many things that people thing differently about that probably will not matter. Do we go to church or Sunday or Saturday? I think it will matter to God that we assemble together, not so much what day of the week.  When we interpret the scriptures are we trying to find God's view or understand his thinking?  If we are trying to get society to OK something that God does not agree with, what good will it do if we are successful? At the end of our days, we will still stand before God. God loves all people, he hates sin. For that reason Christ went to the cross, for people, all people. For all who would believe on him. What does God think? That is what society needs to line up with. What does God think?  John 3:16 is a good place to start to find out. I hope to be in line with God.     God bless, LVZ.
