Mayor Pete Buttigieg is gay, so what, if you want him to be President vote for him, but do not let him distort what being a Christain means.
In a CNN town hall earlier this week, Buttigieg remarked, “God does not have a political party.” His CNN questioner, who let slip during her questioning that she was bisexual but also Christian, asked Buttigieg: “How will you challenge the right’s moral monopoly on Christianity to unite conservative, moderate and liberal Christians alike?”
And here’s what Buttigieg: “If can be challenging to be a person of faith, who is also a member of the LGBT community. And yet to me, the core of faith is regard for one another and part of how God’s love is experienced according to my faith and tradition, is in the way that we support one another and in particular, support the lest among us.”
What he is saying that you do not need Jesus to be saved, that his good works, “…in the way that we support one another and in particular, support the lest among us” is all it takes to be saved. that makes him his own savior with no need to accept that Jesus is the Way and the Light and the only path to salvation.
Yes, God loves us all, He loves all sinners, the murderer, thieves, adulterers, hypocrites, and those who have sex with people of their own sex. He loves even this poor wretched soul that I am, that has sinned time and time again. But God does not condone sin, He damns it to Hell. He does not keep a balance scale to judge you good act against your bad acts, and if the good outweighs the bad give you salvation. That is a beliefe explained in the “Egyptian Book of the Dead”:
“To reach the eternal paradise of the Field of Reeds, however, one had to pass through the trial by Osiris, Lord of the Underworld and just Judge of the Dead, in the Hall of Truth (also known as The Hall of Two Truths), and this trial involved the weighing of one’s heart against the feather of truth.”
It is not a Christain belief, Christain believes that God Abhors sin, and on by being washed in the Blood of the Lamb by accepting Jesus and His teaching can we be saved. John 14:4-6 “And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? Jesus saith unto him, I am the way the truth and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
Ephesians 2:8-9, For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Romans 6:13-15, Do not present the parts of your body to sin as instruments of wickedness, but present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and present the parts of your body to Him as instruments of righteousness. For sin shall not be your master, because you are not under law, but under grace. What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law, but under grace? Certainly not!…
