Just a thot on your ...Lela DeCock responded with: <br /><br />Just a thot on your blog from your comment on Mar 10 regarding Biblical view of gay lifestyle...<br /><br />Broadly speaking, (and I emphasize the "broadly!") commandments given under the Older Testament that are not repeated in the New Testament were for specific ceremonial or situational purposes that do not apply to the New Testament believer. In some cases a general principle may remain, but the specific command could only be applied under the direct supervision of God over His people Israel.<br /><br />You brought up the prohibition of the planting or weaving of two different seeds/fabrics together. When God brought His people into the Promised Land it was inhabited by people who were violent, sexually perverse, and superstitious--the Canaanites. These people believed in the superstitious idea that by combining anything and everything together in a "sexual union"--animate and inanimate--that you could yield better productivity. The key to everything was fertility rites and rituals. Two different seeds "mating" would produce bigger and better crops. Two different kinds of fabric united would produce a better garment etc.<br /><br />God did not want His people to participate in the superstitious and sexually perverse rites and rituals of the Canaanites. If His people were fruitful it would not be because of some magic or technique of their own, but because of His blessing upon them. <br /><br />I suppose a general principle could be extracted from this: A culture must not be "sexualized" believing that sexuality exists for purposes other than that given by God. Or perhaps we could even go further and say that the very concept of sexual union as planned by God is ultimately only fruitful and not harmful when practiced under the conditions and by the people to whom it was given--one man and one woman united by God in marriage.<br /><br />Homosexuals and lesbians can never be fruitful in their relationships. The attempt to justify behaviors by suggesting that ancient laws and prohibitions no longer observed should include their unnatural sexual practices. This will not work for many reasons, not the least of which is that there are several prohibitions of homosexual activity in the New Testament.<br /><br />March 18, 2011 at 4:18pmAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
