As for me I do not have to decide on this issue, the Word of God has
spelled it out quite clearly for my understanding. The reason I am
posting this article is to point out that many denominations are
"changing" their thinking or stance on this issue. I will not tell this
church or that church what they are to believe or teach, for me I see it
as fruitless. I will choose not to attend any church or receive
teaching from any pastor who sides with continued living in a state of
sin and patting me or anyone else on the head to say "there, there,
it's OK, God still loves you...just put your money in the plate and pass
it down". I do not care if the sin is gambling, adultery, drug abuse,
whatever, the Word of God is clear that if it leads to death of the
spirit and our interactive relationship with God our Father then we need
to ditch it and fast. The first commandment is that we will love the
Lord our God with all our heart, with all our mind and all our strength.
If I am in a relationship that I prize more highly than being in
complete alignment with my Creator's heart then I am idolizing that
relationship. For a "believing" pastor to change and say the bible is
not clear on what is sin is like saying the sky is orange - not blue.
Sin, it will get us all in trouble, every time.
