Homosexuality Evidence Of Bad Judgment
| Posted On: 06/04/09 12:22:49 PM |
Age 45, USA |
People who are sound, biblically minded would surely affirm the obvious -- homosexual behavior is evidence of wrong judgment! Focus on the Family's Bruce Hausknecht has strayed from Scriptural thinking and created a false standard that he uses to judge someone. If the nation continues its downward sinful decay and 20 years from now other kinds of unmentionable sexual deviancy are accepted by the culture as "normal", what basis would Mr. Hausknecht be able to use to oppose a candidate engaging in that behavior? Hausknecht should publicly repent.
"Society's demands for moral authority and character increase as the importance of the position increases." ---John Adams
Moral authority. Character. John Adams' statement was based on a biblical understanding. Look around at your natino and government, America. Apparently you have long rejected the right standards to make decisions, and you have filled your government with morally corrupt, godless people. But you cannot solely blame them. Godless people keep electing godless rulers and reap godless effects. If we refuse to repent and to humbly seek God's mercy, what hope is there for the once-great United States of America?

Another Sign of the Times

So many signs are appearing, this one shows the moral decay in our American society and the oval office.
Our country is so far off track when it comes to God's Word ... it is heart breaking! What this country NEEDS is a Nation Wide Revival from Frankin Graham.
It would 'jump start' us back to our senses! Father in heaven forgives us our transgressions against you. In Jesus Name, AMEN.
In His Love,

I do not listen to any of FOTF, ever since, I wrote James Dobsen, and asked if Roman Catholics were Christians, and his reply was yes, they are brothers and sisters IN CHRIST, and he was handed a Honorary Degree, from a RCC college, enough said, IF a man of GOD< is this stupid, that he is ECUMENICAL, with a system, with another jesus, I have no time to be lead by the blind into the ditch, IF he isnt wise enough to know a FALSE System, WHY on earth, would ANYONE be foolish enough to listen to him.

The salt of the earth

This is unbelievable. Focus on the Family has always been a bastion of truth, a harbinger of Christian ethics and the 'gold standard'of applied Christianity - I would have thought' To endorse such error is to create moral confusion and it's a clear failure to apply Biblical principles...as it says "If the trumpet makes an indistinct sound, who shall prepare for battle?"
As Jesus said in Matthew 5:13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
In hope against hope may I ask, does Dr Dobson himself endorse these views, or have they somehow slipped in 'under the radar'? We can but prayerfully hope this is a 'one off' and not the general trend. But judging by some of the above comments, it's not looking too good...

No, I do not go along with all this homo thing and same sex marriage; however, few are getting down to what I feel is the bottom of the problem. Man has been and is destroying our very earth with all the poisons they are pouring on it. I have been following this for around 40 years and have much information on it. They are upsetting God's plan for reproduction and starting to destroy part of his creation such frogs, bats, butterflys, and now bees. Read Rev.ll:18. To me this is a serious matter.

- "Natural"
| Posted On: 05/30/09 10:53:06 PM | | Age 18, WI |
Some questions:
Where in the Bible does it say that "homosexuality is unnatural"?
And why is "natural" vs. "unnatural" such an issue for the traditional Christian community? We have a "sinful nature" passed on to us by Adam - then what is natural to us is not good, but sinful. What is natural to humanity is a battle between good and evil, not an innate goodness. Yes, we were made in God's image, but Adam has also given us an inheritance of sin (Romans 5:12). So I don't understand why we as Christians should argue for "natural" behavior - if we truly argued to behave in a way that conforms to our nature, we would condone all forms of sexual immorality. Therefore, the use of the words "natural" and "unnatural" in reference to homosexuality and other sin and deviance always proves a stumbling block to me. Could anyone shed some light on the Scripture or reasoning behind the use of these words?

There is another party, you know

Yes, the Republican Party has gone RINO. There is another party and it's time to move enmasse to that party. It's the Constitution Party and all it needs to be viable and competitive is for every last real Republican to leave that once grand Old Party and become Constitutionalists. I am serious. Enough with the wimpy "third parties can't win" whine.
Make the GOP the third party folks. I sent the same message to any Democrats who are disgusted with the ugly turn their party has taken.
Join the Constitution Party and throw out all the enemies of the United States that we have, unbelievably, put into office.

As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.

I agree, there are almost constant examples in the courts of our country of judges who legislate their personal beliefs on others through their legal authority. It is impossible to separate who a person really is on the inside from what they say and do on the outside. Again the principle of Proverbs 23:7. An active homosexual is probably not even a true Christian and at best might be a Christian out of fellowship with God and walking in carnality. How could this person legislate from corrupt and anti-Biblical principles in a way that would please God and benefit Christians. I do not understand this statement from Focus and I have always had a great deal of respect for them.

- MIND Over glands
| Posted On: 05/23/09 07:55:05 AM | | Age 84, CA |
The defenders of homosexuality continue the oxymoron
contradiction of attempting to use the mind to justify the
rule of carnal glands.
Thinking Americans still don't give 'a tinkers-sham' what
homosexuals do with their body-parts. An individual or
a society which is by law and tradition committed to the
natural human hierarchy of mind over body will not, how-
ever, sanction glandular rule over the human mind.
Undisciplined human desire can induce distorted perception.
The disturbed personality or inverted character can be
considered to be cognitively confused. This description is
confirmed by the work of English psychoanalyst Money-
Kyrle, who indicates that it is more accurate to recognize
such a condition as the result of distorted perception.
Neurosis, psychosis, stunting of growth, etc., are all, from
this perspective, cognitive diseases contaminating not only
perception but thinking, learning, remembering, valuing, and
decision- and choice-making.
Money-Kyrle affirms that scientific truth is not attained by a
trendy self-serving fashion, confession of inadequacy,
abdication, or collective majority-vote. There is no excuse for
professional ignorance willfully maintained.
By definition, a standard that is flexible is not a standard at all.
The human mind requires a standard of comparison that is
invariable. A criterion must be greater than the value measured
in order to supply value-meaning in a predictable direction of
survival and progression. The mind thus equipped is enabled
to maintain a natural dominion over the body and its appetites.
The very survival of the body itself, therefore, depends upon this
maintained intellectual authority.
Our posterity cannot respect what it does not perceive, and it
cannot perceive that which has been abandoned or inverted to
an appetite of physical expediency by the equivocal person.
With confidence in the laws of human nature, we can know that
in the clash between carnality and intellect, the 'man of the mind'
will always prevail.
That is nature and GOD's way & intent all along.

- Barnnon, how do we contact...
| Posted On: 05/22/09 08:36:34 AM | | Age 41, KS |
This information is helpful to us, but I have noticed in lot of talks there is no information for us to act upon. For example, how do we contact FOTF and who do we express our concerns to? If we only listen and complain then nothing will change. Perhaps, if we come together and let orgs., like FOTF and others, know how we do not agree, we may be able to encourage them to stand on Biblical truths. So, can you start giving information so we too act up on the talk you give?
Thank you

demons posed as angles of light.focus on the family is alot like solomon was! solomon started out good but, in his life he didn't walk in the ways of david his father.solomom should have keeped gods enduring morial absolutes instead of walking away from god..He inanvertanly draged down the entiere country of Israel. well the same is true of this country, and little to none will take a stand for the truth of god perhaps because of persecution and focus on the family is one of alote of christains organasations that have gone from taking a stand & have become morial reliveist. Dr.Dobson has compermised the truth for stearedsysist.or leagle posistiveism. so this artical dosn't suprise me. want to take a stand? then go to [ kgov.com ] and with the lords help lets take this counter back .. 2 chronicals 7: 14

I agree with the majority of people posting on this subject that FOTF is wrong in it's view on the homosexual judge. At the same time if the judge could be TRUSTED to rule without trying to "legislate from the bench", it might be far better than any other candidate Obama proposes. Unfortunately the devil is in the details and the guy bcould be just another wolf in sheeps clothing (reference Arlen Spector). I trust God to work it out. (I know he wins in the end) He knows we all view this differntly but his will, will prevail. I am not above using the strategy of the "lesser of two evils" in trying to bring about a more favorable Christian outcome considering that Obama presently controls the executive and the legislative branch of our government.

FOTF - why expect more?

Age 56, OK |
Is the statement truly surprising? An integrator of Scripture and worldly philosophies (psychobabble), FOTF has long been short on biblical discernment - huge visibility and influence in our churches, but too often not for the better. As Dr. James Dobson, himself, stated on occasion, he is not a theologian. The truth is, all Believers are theologians; it's just a matter of how good or bad we are at it.

i am constantly in some debate or another with family(who are in church every week.) the debate is always lively yet sad.i find it extremely disheartening when i hear my christian relatives siding with the ungodly leaders of this nation and cannot understand how they bring harmony between what they say they believe and their views on politics etc.
from obama to abortion theirs is an unbiblical view and instead what i get is "i think,i feel.i believe and so on and so on. i look forward to the day when CHRISTIANS will stand on the word and stand up for righteousness in every situation regardless if theirs is the unpopular one.
