Here goes the weekends!

Well I did have a productive weekend? Was in church on Saturday for W7 cell group (a cg that i have been helping out throughout this whole year!) for our very LAST cg of the year! How time flies when you're having such great fun with cute little hobbits! :) I might as well be one of them because some of them, well most of them are taller than me. haha! The topic that we discuss was sexuality, homosexuals.. I know it can be such a controversial topic as it now involves politics too. So questions brought up during our topic were:

  • How would you respond if you found out your friend was gay?
  • Did God create gays and lesbians? 
From my point of view,  God allowed us human beings, giving us the choice to be homosexuals. Don't get me wrong but us heterosexuals are no better. The Bible clearly states in 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 - "Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God." (NIV).

My point is that we have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, Romans 3:23. God has given us up to our sinful desires of the flesh. Romans 1:24 Therefore sGod gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to tthe dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, 25 because they exchanged the truth about God for ua lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, vwho is blessed forever! Amen. 26 For this reason wGod gave them up to xdishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; 27 and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, ymen committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.
28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, zGod gave them up to aa debased mind to do bwhat ought not to be done. 29 They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, 31 foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32 Though they know cGod's righteous decree that those who practice such things ddeserve to die, they not only do them but egive approval to those who practice them.

All of us are sinners and we must repent. We are no better even if we are straight as we worship idols, other then our ONE TRUE creator. NONE of us is righteous. HOWEVER, we have the gospel that saves!  
Romans 3:21-26, 21 But now athe righteousness of God bhas been manifested apart from the law, although cthe Law and the Prophets bear witness to it—22 the righteousness of God dthrough faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. eFor there is no distinction: 23 for fall have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 gand are justified hby his grace as a gift, ithrough the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 25 whom God jput forward as ka propitiation lby his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God's righteousness, because in mhis divine forbearance he had passed over nformer sins. 26 It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

HOW GREAT IS THAT?! :D He, Jesus Christ is our ONE AND ONLY SAVIOUR :)

Besides that, had a great chat on skype with Miss Eunice Peh on Sunday morning from 12am-3am! HAHA! It is great to be accountable to someone, someone to learn from.
