Burnishing Bigotry - 3rd edition

Lucy #461: You then go on to cite 1 John 3:4-6, which reads, ―Everyone who makes a
practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. You know that he appeared in
order to take away sins, and in him there is no sin. No one who abides in him keeps on sinning;
no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him.‖
And to this Scripture reference I say – Right On, my Friend! For this passage reflects
exactly what I have been talking about in this entire conversation. Indeed, this is exactly my
point – namely, that you & yours are so wrapped up in your own arrogant belief that you have
sole access to the only acceptable way to interpret the Scriptures (a Sin of Sins according to Jesus –
see Mathew 18:3-4 & John 5:39-40) that you cannot see the far more beautiful Truth about the Bible
– & the far more amazing Truth about Christ – and even the far more profound Truth about
homosexuals (who are just as much Children of the Father as you & yours ever will be) … And you are
actively denying these Truths even though I have gently unwrapped them right in front of you!!!!
―You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and that
it is they that testify on my behalf, and yet you refuse to come to me to have life …If you love
me, you will keep my commandments … This is my commandment, that you Love one
another as I have Loved you.‖ ~ Jesus Christ (John 5:39-40 + John 14.15 + John 15:12)
―But blessed are your eyes, for they finally See; and your ears, for they finally Hear.‖ ~
Jesus Christ (Matthew 13:16)
Lucy #462: Finally, you state, ―This is what the BIBLE says – these are NOT MY
WORDS!!! SO DON‘T COME BACK AT ME AND RANT & RAVE ABOUT THE
PLANK IN MY EYE AND SAY THAT I‘M JUDGING THEM!
Goodness, Lucy! There‘s no need to shout … My dear Friend, if you don‘t want me to
bring up your very clear & quite undeniable violations of The Way of Jesus Christ, I fully
understand. As a supposed believer in Jesus, it must be extremely disconcerting to see very plain
proof that you have been so drastically misguided in your youth about what being his true
Follower actually means and how actually following him actually appears … That having been
said, if you want me to stop ―ranting & raving‖ about you judging homosexuals, you‘re simply
going to have to heed the words of Christ himself and STOP JUDGING THEM! … And if you
want me to stop ―ranting & raving‖ about the plank that is so clearly stuck in your own eye, then
I suggest you simply remove it yourself – instead of allowing that beam to inspire your own
ranting & raving about the nonexistent ―sin‖ of homosexuality.
As always, my Friend, sending you & yours the Peace of Christ …
