Where do you stand on homosexuality?
Is there something seriously wrong with those who reject homosexuality?
Does the Bible reject or accept homosexuality?
Is it a choice?
I would encourage you to check out this talk by Matt Chandler and see if you agree or disagree with what he is saying. I came across this talk on another blog from Justin Taylor.
Here is a brief summary from Justin Taylor of Matt's talk:
"Chandler begins by tracing the biblical storyline. In the second video, he gives some basic responses to several street-level objections, like:
1. If you’re not hurting anyone else, what’s wrong with it?
2. Since you’re a sinner, too, who are you to call out others?
3. Jesus didn’t say anything about homosexuality.
4. Some animals have same-sex relations, so if it’s in nature it must natural.
5. The homosexuality condemned by Paul is a different type of homosexuality than we see today.
6. Revisionist arguments from modern scholarship.
In the third video he fields questions via text message—like how parents should handle their adult kids who are gay with partners coming to visit."

If you have any thoughts I'd be glad to hear them.
