What does a prostitute, thief, murderer, and liar, have in common?

God loves them all. Every one of them. Just as much as He loves everyone else. He doesn't discriminate or hold back His love, to any. He never hates nor condemns the sinner. He hates sin; not the individual person. That places all of us on fair, equal ground, when it comes to salvation. One no better than the other, because sin claims and places all in the same category: Sinners in need of a Savior.

God does not categorize sin, like we do. All sin seperates us from God, no matter what sin that is. That is, until we're sick and tired of living a sinful lifestyle and want to trade our old ways of living, for a brand new life in Christ. Then we can confess our sins to Jesus, and receive His forgiveness. He'll never turn anyone away.

God knows us better than we know ourselves. He can't be fooled. He knows if we have a repentant heart and if we mean what we say to Him.

Doesn't love Gays though 🥺
@HotPizza71 He certainly DOES. And the only reason I didn't include Gay people in that post, was because I was afraid someone would say I was picking on them. God loves Gays, just as much as anyone else... they can count on it! I love Gays. I have a gay friend, in fact for years, that I mentored, and that every one thought they were too good to associate with him. I love everyone.

@LadyGrace not in my wife's church they don't!!!
@HotPizza71 Then she's going to the wrong Church, beloved. Jesus wouldn't have turned Gays away! What is the Church, if not for all us sinners? It's not for people who are so prideful and stuck up and think they don't need Jesus. Everyone is welcome at my church.

@LadyGrace she did leave that church,but they still protest against homosexually..Not a very modern day outlook is it
@HotPizza71 That's on them, then. Jesus, even back in His day, never turned anyone away. Just look at what He said about His enemies, that nailed his hands and feet to the cross. Did he curse them? Did he hate them? No. He asked His Father in Heaven to forgive them, "for they know not what they do."
@HotPizza71 God doesn't categorize sin, nor favor certain people.

@LadyGrace Nobody knows that for sure..I believe in treating all equally,I'm not a religious person
@HotPizza71 Nobody knows what for sure? God's Word
says he doesn't categorize sin, nor favor certain people.
@HotPizza71 I'm not a religious person either. I'm a saved person who has a personal relationship with Jesus and God. Jesus was against the religious leaders in his time because they were phonies and hypocrites. Religion doesn't save anybody. It didn't die in the cross to save us from our sins. Jesus did. That makes it personal.

@LadyGrace nobody actually knows the word of God..Apart from Jesus, apparently..it's been, over 2000 years since anyone's heard from This God..So whatever has been said,could be well ot of date!
@HotPizza71 I don't know where you got that or who told you that, but that's not true. But I'm not going to argue with you about it. People hear from God everyday through the Holy Spirit and from reading His Word. God saved my daughter from dying, when every doctor said there was no more hope and there was nothing else they could do to save her and her organs were shutting down already, especially her kidneys. They said there was absolutely nothing they could do and she would be dead in a week. But we are a praying family and we believed that God would answer our prayers and we ask him to save her, and he did, in an instant. I've seen other miracles as well. God is in the miracle business.
@HotPizza71 Jesus rebuke you..
@WhisperinAngelic101 For what? Giving his opinion?
@LadyGrace sorry I need to learn lots. I am wrong...
@WhisperinAngelic101 that's okay honey. We just have to remember that some people have not read the Bible so they don't understand it.

@LadyGrace I have read it, but from my own freewill and choice,choose to not believe 99%..
It's upto you and others,that do believe,to believe,whatever makes you happy

@HotPizza71 Only the person who has not committed any sin may cast your stone on that woman. All stones were dropped.
Jesus said, "I forgive you" and he forgave everybody with a message Sin no more. In our own understanding, we should not sin.

@HotPizza71 Of course HE does!
@HotPizza71 You forgot one thing. Whoever wants to go to heaven, it's up to them to ask Jesus to forgive them of their sins, so they don't miss heaven. We are each responsible for our own sins and one sin is no worse than the other, in God's eyes. All sin separates us from God and that's why we need Jesus to forgive us of them. Jesus can save any who come to him
