So now, do you think that it's possible in the Spirit, in the Lord, for 2 guys, or 2 women, or a man and a woman, to stand at the front, before their living Creator and become one in Spirit? This is not an attack on the integrity of manhood, but the wonderful, sheltering cloak of justice of our risen Saviour. It can only be seen with Spiritual eyes. But now, back to your answer to whether you think it's possible in the Spirit for two to become one in Spirit...
Out of where did you get your answer? From the unrefined, shallow and angry mind of shallow doctrine, from the angry mind within a shallow soul, from some book (those being the more Alpha-Ape-like stances), or did you get your answer from a heart of love and a renewed mind of understanding, from the Living Word extended? Such would be the mind of the Omega Man. Be ye renewed by the renewing of your mind. It just might not be a sin for those adults in the sight of their God. Maybe it's not right for me, but I can see how it could be right for them. Perhaps we should rejoice and be happy with them in their commitment before God. We're talking two adults here. Not children. Not an adult and a child. Get it clear. Get it right. It only takes a little spiritual common sense, but it is oh so beautiful in the sight of God! And, it definitely is a vital part of the law fulfilled.
For there are 7 Kinds of Love. The English language falls short on it's definition and only has one word and one shallow definition for such an important teaching and focus of our Lord. Ya, but we're great at putting each other down, at matters of finance, taxation, politics, organized religion, gay-bashing, genocide, hate crimes and war. Ya, just as I thought... How many centuries more must all this go on?
