No one is perfect, and only 1 will judge us

Andy Chevelt's Oct. 27 letter said Glenn Chatfield's Oct. 24 letter falsely claims that Jesus said homosexual behavior was an abomination, and he claims Jesus did not say one word about it. Chevelt also claims that the few references are in the Old Testament stating other sins plus the fact that it wasn't important enough to mention in the Ten Commandments. Then he went on to tell Christians what it says they should be doing.

To all of this I say that God's word says that we have all sinned and come short of the glory of God. That none are perfect. We shall only be like Him when we see Him face to face. However, because of this, Jesus came to shed his blood for the remission of our sins not that we would not have to worry about sinning again but that we would have the third person in the God head, The Holy Spirit, to nudge us when we do commit a sin to repent and ask God to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

As we begin to recognize the devil's tricks we are more able to sin less but we still won't be perfect. So we all should be careful how we judge others. After all, the Bible does say God is our judge and He has the last say.

Oh, and Andy, I didn't know Romans was in the Old Testament. Or how do you interpret Romans 1:26 and 27; it doesn't say homosexual behavior in those two words, but it describes it very plainly or else I don't know what homosexual behavior is.
