Moore may tackle gay rights
CanWest News Service
Controversial filmmaker Michael Moore has revealed that he might take on homophobia and the anti-gay movement in his next documentary.
“I think it’s a very ripe subject for someone like me to make a movie about,” he admitted, in an interview with The Advocate. “Simply because we are not there yet and it remains one of the last open wounds on our soul that we are not willing to fix yet.”
Moore, whose latest film Sicko attacks the U.S. health care system, expressed anger at fundamentalist Christians in the U.S. who condemn same-sex marriage.
“There is nowhere in the four Gospels where Jesus uses the word ‘homosexual.’ The right wing has appropriated this guy … and they have used him to attack gays and lesbians, when he never said a single word against people who are homosexual. Anyone who professes to be a Christian and does that is certainly not following the teachings of Jesus Christ.”
Moore, who told the magazine he is a spiritual person, said he supports same-sex marriage.

It sadly amuses me that people who want to disobey God and His Word (the Bible), always try to make a so called god in their own mind that does NOT condemn their sinful acts.
They will use this pathetic worst excuse that Jesus did not say anything about homosexuality in the 4 Gospels.
If you do not know the Word of God, you may belive that sad excuse. You can also make up any excuse you want, to disobey God. When it comes to Judgment day, however, your excuses won't work.
First of all you have to understand that Homosexuality is clearly a sin, it is condemned in both the Old & New Testaments of the Bible, and is even named as an Abomination to the Lord.
New:
(1 Corinthians 6:8-10) 8Instead, you yourselves cheat and do wrong, and you do this to your brothers.
9Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders 10nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
(1 Timothy 1:9-11) 9realizing the fact that (A)law is not made for a righteous person, but for those who are lawless and (B)rebellious, for the (C)ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and (D)profane, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers
10and (E)immoral men and (F)homosexuals and (G)kidnappers and (H)liars and (I)perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to (J)sound teaching,
11according to (K)the glorious gospel of (L)the blessed God, with which I have been (M)entrusted.
Next, the entire Bible is God's Word to us, not just the parts that we find eaiser to obey.
2 Timothy 3:15-17 says...
15and how from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
Again, All Scripture is God Breathed and useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness!
So Mr Moore, you see, you can not be a "Christian" a true follower of Christ, deny His Teachings...(which would be All Scripture, not just the 4 Gospels), and deny the Trinity...the fact that the Holy Spirt, Jesus & the Father are One!
Oh and by the way, just because Jesus did NOT say it, does not always mean you can't believe it. For instance, Jesus never said the word "Bible". Does that mean you can't believe the Bible? Come on Mr Moore, seek the truth.
Here is a scary, yet truthful scripture for all who practice homosexual lifestyles...
God's Wrath Against Mankind
18The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.
21For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.
24Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
26Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
28Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. 29They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless.
32Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
With that said, sin is sin, and it all leads to eternal death. We will have to pay the eternal fine for our sins, or trust and believe in the One Who has already paid it for us by REPENTING (turning from our sinful lifestyle) and trusting in Jesus as Lord and Savior (in the way that you would trust a parachute to save you from the fall). Then get a Bible, read it, and obey what you read, by praying and asking God to open your eyes, be your Lord and Savior, and to help you live for Him. Then try to find a Bible believing Christ Centered Church to attend.

You scored as Reformed Evangelical. You are a Reformed Evangelical. You take the Bible very seriously because it is God's Word. You most likely hold to TULIP and are sceptical about the possibilities of universal atonement or resistible grace. The most important thing the Church can do is make sure people hear how they can go to heaven when they die. |
