What's worse, someone who is having a simple relationship with someone they same sex, or to see children starving and the church doing nothing? The vatican is full of gold and still they do nothing, if they would still do what jesus thought to this world, there wouldn't be any hunger in the world..... |
I will answer your questions as it seems you are asking with sincerity.
1. I get frustrated sometimes when Catholicism and Christianity are lumped together. What the Vatican is and what Rome through the church has done through history is not according to Christ or what He taught His followers to do;therefore, I have great difficulty in my heart to attempt to call Roman Catholicism "Christian". I do not mean to insult anyone who is Catholic on this thread. I grew up one myself. I left the teaching of the Vatican and embraced the teaching of Christ, the Bible, when I was seventeen.
2. People do not go to hell for being gay, or for any of the following: murder, raper, stealing, adultury, drinking, and so on, and so on. The dependant factor for one's going to heaven or hell rest solely upon one thing:
Has a person recognized a need for Christ to save him/her from the trangression of sin. All have sinned; therefore, all need Christ.
Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Joh 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
Joh 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
