If there are those who have felt what I posted was preaching forgive me. Simply the links that I posted were not religous but from research done by psychologist etc. on the matter of orientation. The statemnt that I posted from the Assemblies of God is just that, Biblical opinions on the subject and the denomination of which I am a part stance on the subject. If one is to read into the statement the statemant in itself is not condenming. As far as Journeys is concerned this is part of my journey studying for the ministry and learning what actual Biblical and church opinion is on many subjects. For example now I am doing a project on eschatology or last things, separating fact from fiction on the things of the end time. In TF we were taught much fiction on a variety of subjects. Homosexuality and the church is just one small part of my studies, which was covered in the class I ahd on Ministerial Ethics. It is my sincere prayer to preseent what I perceive to be scriptural on these boards in a loving fashion. If that wasn't done I'm sorry. I do feel though that in many respects that the church at large opinions have been distorted by the media not looking at the church as a whole but at the few. We all have a long way to go!
