Comments on: Being silenced on sex isn’t the end of Christianity https://mikefrost.net/silenced-sex-isnt-end-christianity/ AUTHOR | SPEAKER | MISSIOLOGIST | AGITATOR Fri, 23 Sep 2022 18:00:34 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.4 By: Troy https://mikefrost.net/silenced-sex-isnt-end-christianity/#comment-43059 Fri, 23 Sep 2022 18:00:34 +0000 https://mikefrost.net/?p=26761#comment-43059 In reply to Matt Atkins.

Sexual immorality is mentioned over 25 times alone in the New Testament. Homosexuality by name many times. Several specific passages condemn it outright, and also, those who support/advocated it (Romans 1:32). This is not a matter of left or right, liberal or conservative, but right and wrong. Sin separates man from God. Biblical moralization exists because of the Bible, the living word of God spells out sin. Sin is the entire purpose we have Christ our savior. To save us from sin. What were Jesus’s final words to the woman caught in adultery, or to the cripple healed at the pool of Bethesda? I appreciate Frost’s concepts in the missional sense, but completely disagree with the position Christians should stop talking about morality as wrong or right issues. He’s mocking standing up for biblical morals with an eternal consequence, while championing politically motivated/pseudo social justice movements? Even those who champion these movements know they are only a means to a political end and care nothing for true justice. Just look at the bakers and brewers; have they received justice? These are the very examples of Isiah 5:20.

Always happy to hear more people thinking like this. My new thought is that we need to “engage” the conversation rather than “enrage” it.

Seriously, that’s your question and concern? I think you have missed the point and heart of Mike’s post

Kind of depends on whether you think OT applies to now right Daniel? Jesus said he came to complete the Law not to do away with it. Does that mean to continue the curse on the land parts of the Law, or are you missing what He meant about completing the Law?

Our faith is not of this world is it our place to berate those who do not have faith or to show them Christs love through our actions. Out spoken judgmental leaders that seem to have a side agender do our cause no good . That cause is to love every man and woman what ever they do. Christ only publicly bersted corrupt leaders He quietly and privately showed others ther downfall. Be like Him not like the Pharisies of old

Absolutely spot on! The first century Christians didn’t have a say in life and politics, but that didn’t mean they were hindered in progressing the gospel.
