God Hates Fags
Can you think of anything more vile that picketing a funeral home with signs that read, “God Hates Fags.” The Westboro Baptist Church from Topeka, Kansas, acting on the delusion they are doing God’s bidding, have dispatched evil emissaries to do exactly that.
God hates sin. And we should hate sin in ourselves, but overlook it in others. Hate the sin, love the sinner. (See John 3:16) Sin entered the world and put us all on death row. Since Christ lived a sinless life the grave had no claim on Him
Christ the conquering hero was triumphant, but not at the cross, His victory is in the resurrection. Our Lord’s victory can be ours if we enter into a God ordained, Scripture based relationship with Him.
Man’s misunderstanding of God is legendary. Some think God is a semi-senile grandfather like character sitting on the clouds. Others liken Him to a wrathful, fire-and-brimstone God who is waiting for you to step out of line so He can squash you like a bug.
Many hold a concept of heaven or paradise that is equally ridiculous. They delight in the idea that all their senses will be sated in heaven. Eat all the cheese cake you want without gaining weight I heard one person say; drink all the wine you want without a hangover. Or rewarded with ten virgins to will wait on you hand and foot.
Scripture declares the wonders of heaven are beyond our imagination. For me paradise will be glorious because God is there, and sin is not. When doubts arise and fears assail I remind myself I am in a no lose situation. Go to heaven where there is no sin, or to hell where there is no God.
