: MediaTakeOut.com just received word from our peeps over The National Enquirer that actress Raven Symone has come out the closet as a LESBIAN. We always suspected that she liked the ladies . . .but now the tabloid says that it's OFFICIAL.
Here's an excerpt of the report:
Sources close to Raven say she's GAY and has shacked up with AzMarie Livingston, the androgynous beauty seen on "America's Next Top Model." The two are living together in Raven's luxury $11,00-a-month New York City condo.. . .Wow . . . the National Enquirer has a rep of not putting out BULLSH*T either. Well good for her then . . .She's at a point now where she doesn't care what her family thinks, and she's in love with AzMarie. She's a lesbian and wants to live that way."
These women are free to live their life's why not this the 21st Century same *** marriage is no longer a taboo, they are both beautiful so if this isn't a rumor congrats to them hope they get married and (HINTS) she used to be LIndsey Lohans ex- Roomy so @-@ blank stare this might have some validaity.
Wow I just spoke her up on the other thread! When there was "The Game" stuff as the topic. Anyway this don't suprise me. It's the food, the programming, and the point. No offense, but if everybody is *** how are we going to repopulate? Are the *** gonna just rely on the heterosexuals? Making us straight people the minority? Are we just going to be babymaking machines someday? I think yes. Scary world. Where you can just be ***, not rise to your purpose in life and put more people on it. I'm not saying being *** is wrong but it's so prevelant. We must have reached a point of complete ignorance as humans. The white folks know that to control the world they have to control the population what we eat what we watch what we do. All I'm asking is that the *** community not play house and stop partying so they can be taken more seriously. *** men stop sleeping with women *** black women your still a woman have a baby. Or we're DONE.
We are nothing but LAB RATS. Allowing ourselves to be fed off whatever they give. (remember the welfare cheese lines?) Come on wake up. They want us to be okay with living in a little box (project apt) they want us to over flow their offices begging, they want our babies to drink that "milk" (WIC) because it's "free" they want us to take their pills, we are LAB RATS. And money don't buy immunity. Intelligence keeps you safe. Being *** is one thing wasnting to change your *** is another. Little boys in middle school running around switching will send a father running! Yall know its true. It's sad but it's true. Little girls licking on each other because they see this on tv everyday...being turned out...,looking like men...Heaven help us all.
....some little girl is gonna say if my hero "Thats so Raven" can do it then so can I. It's that simple. Simple minded. Even if it's a lie it's a seed that has been planted already. MTO knows we live in a world where there are very few boundaries. Mothers can only nurture so far. But you have to be credible too. Black people never embrace each other and when we do it's never for long, because we get weak for one reason or another. Usually sexualized propaganda. Thats what scares them the most our sexuality and ability to CREATE anything and make it BETTER. But since we hate ourselves so much they BANK on that fact alone. I hate to say it but I'm afraid for us. And I will use any platform (thank you MTO) to express it. I love my people too much to sit by.
Even though I am NOT a *** I understand sisters saying *** it and giving up on black men ...not even lying. I myself love that *** entirely too much to ever go that route but I ain't mad at 'em. At least they don't have to worry about STD's, unwanted pregnancies, baby mama's, unemployed or underemployed black men. It's really a win-win situation.
@Tony84 cosign..... I believe more & more people will b coming out since the prez openly endorse the *** community.. U know it starts from the head of the country now we see the trickle down affect. Jay Z jus openly endorse it sayin it's ok so now there will b more endorsing it because he is the most influential in rap u know they will use the most influential people to convince others cuz a lot of people may look up those people so if Jay z says its ok than others will. But this man Obama has a hidden agenda which is leading to one world religion , one world economy, health care, removing the don't ask don't tell policy in military, signing the martial law. He has taken the Godly principals out of laws and turning them to his own. American is in trouble with God my people lets pray for this country about the direction it's turning in because there is more to come with this man he has plenty of strategies up his sleeve.
*** the Bible written by men who wanted to control the mass of people . King James was a sizno , catholic men were *** every little boy they could . I just don't understand stuff in the bible is not even logical .
The second is that the KJV supposedly has what today software designers call an Easter egg in it. The KJV was written in Shakespeare's presumed 46th year of life (we aren't precisely sure of his actual birth year). Psalm 46 has as the 46th word from the beginning the word "shake." Then the 46th word from the end of the psalm is the word "spear." This, argues some folks, is a clue that Shakespeare included to let folks know he was involved. But if he was, then why wasn't he credited for his work as all of the other translators were? King James demanded he not have any involment in his bible . This was how Shakespearse got him involment . People read the bible verbatim which is not common sense. Every species on this earth has bisex in their category. . We are so gullible . Most Ministers if they studied really hard they know, this the problem is they are pimps in the pulpit. G study husbandry the study of livestock breeding .
I'm saddened to come to this site and read these comments about a black woman from other black people. Black people have to understand and realize that the religion most of you are citing and using to cast judgement on this girl is the same religion that was used to enslave us. Our religion was replaced and is now being studied and used by cultures that are not our own. As black people we must realize that it is our minds that power and control our connection to our creator....thats it! Everything around you and the things shown to you are there to remove that fact from your psyche. We are energy beings that manifest and can control energy through our thoughts and intentions. By jumping on the gossip hound bandwagon...by demonizing another fellow human being....by casting judgement on a person without knowing the *** and experiences that brought them to that place is the height of ignorance. Since the bible is quote so often on this page...remember these "faith unaccompanied by action is dead". "My PEOPLE (you and I) will perish from a lack of knowledge" We must be mind-FULL of what we say, what we do, and we must especially control the negative thoughts and sentiments that are expressed through word (or typing) against another individual.
I pray for all...regardless of their decisions.
@Alcololic, yes those who follow the bible are bound by its teachings those who don't are not but remember there is a price to pay.
@Topic, I use to be so confused by this argument because it is natural to want to show all people love and to want all people to have equality. However God's word is the only word for me The Alpha and the Omega. There is no going between or against his word, he WINS every time.
So no matter what hollywood, politicians, media, or society says I cannot ride with the populous on this one. It does not stop me from loving a person in spite of their lifestyle (which is a choice) but that act is an abomination, GODâs WORDS.
People say you canât judge but thatâs wrong, if you follow the word, believe the word, are bound by the word, then you can judge according to the WORD. What you canât do is JUDGE OUTSIDE of the word. Please believe fear and confusion are the tricks of the devil. Wake up and clear your mind already the CHOICE is yours.
I know just by reading the following scriptures I was convicted and have some praying to do.
Leviticus 18:22 22 Thou *** not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
Leviticus 20: 13 13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
1 Corithins 6:9-10 9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
SIDE NOTE: (ABUSER S OF THEMSELVES WITH MANKIND, MEANS ***)
Romans 1: 26-32 26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
SIDE NOTE: THIS VERSE SPEAKS TO WOMEN GOING AGAINST NAUTRE AND LYING WITH ONE ANOTHER.
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; 29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: 32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
SIDE NOTE: IF YOU READ VERSE ROMANS 1:28, THE WORD IS SAYING BECAUSE THOSE WHO COMMIT SUCH ACTS DENY GOD (DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE HIM) SO HE GIVES THEM OVER TO A REPROBATE MIND, (a depraved, unprincipled, or wicked person: a drunken reprobate). So now they are unable to see the errors of their ways because their heart has been hardened and they canât hear godâs words. Instead they go out and promote their abomination and condemn others who do not go along with their act. This is not just in reference to *** acts either. How many people think fornication is okay because everybodyâs doing it? Itâs not okay, nor is disrespecting your parents, coveting what somebody else has. But thatâs what the media promotes so we think its okay, itâs not. This is what is happening here in America today. We are turning into another Sodom and Gomorrah.
As I said before the choice is yours people, please believe it! Ride or Die for God only!
Good for Raven... I kinda had a hunch though....
-->sidebar: to all of you CONDEMNING ***/*** lifestyles based on your Bible beliefs, I have this to say:
NO SIN IS GREATER THAN THE NEXT........
JUDGE NOT LEST YE BE JUDGED........
and, my personal favorite,
GOD'S NOT INTERESTED IN WHAT THE OTHER PERSON'S DOING. WHEN YOU GO TO THE PEARLY GATES, GOD'S GOING TO AS YOU.......WHAT YOU (YES, YOU) DID....
In conclusion:
STOP WORRYING ABOUT THE NEXT PERSON ANS LIVE YOUR LIFE. WHAT GOD HAS FOR YOU IS STRICTLY FOR YOU.....
And, please, don't throw stones if you live in a glass house chile....
BECAUSE WE ALL SIN!
Thank you and God Bless :)
@Realpeeps...its easy to quote whats written in a book. Its another thing to understand the context and reasoning behind why such words were written. God may condemn certain acts but God also condemned wearing clothing of DIFFERENT clothes...looked at your *** tag lately? The reason this was written (in the King James Version) was to regulate trade.
Other parts of the Bible speak specifically to SLAVES by telling them they should "fear their masters". There are numerous sources and citations that could be included that are in DIRECT conflict with the way we ALL live today but those "facts" are not cited.
If we really want to get "bout it"...spirituality and religion are TWO TOTALLY DIFFERENT things. Religion is a MAN-MADE institutional construct that was (and is) used to control populations. Spirituality is your connection to the Creator. Most people vehemently mix these two up. Your level of spiritual attainment relies on many factors...including your ability to show and exhibit UNCONDITIONAL love and ones ability to free your mind of the conditioning that takes places in media, television, etc. As black people we have a long way to go but we must first realize that the religion that has been pushed on us is not ours.
Folks kill me bringing God into everything. She has to answer to God and God alone and not to you. People lie, steal, cheat, murder and judge everyday. According to God those are sins as well yet people do it every day but want to call out someone because of their lifestyle. If this is true, its her life and she should live it anyway she feel and not be ridiculed because of it. We all sin ALL OF US and we will ALL have to answer to God.
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT TO ALL YOU EFFIN MORONS quoting the Bible and telling others they're going to hell. I suggest you go back to your African roots and slavery and realize WHY it is you hold the Bible so true....probably because your ancestors were STOLEN and ASSIMILATED into the European way of life and lost THEIR CULTURE/RELIGION
....The Bible and Christianity was used as a means to promote capitalism. The IDEOLOGY of Christianity in colonial period was capitalist expansion is a religious duty because it is for the good of the nation. So when they went over to the motherland and stole your ancestors, murdered them, raped them, whipped them, threw the sick into the sea, and then forced them to engage in free labour, punished them for practicing their culture and forced them to practice Christianity and forget who they were...that was done using the same Bible you're about to use to condemn Raven. They used that same Bible to tell them that their role is a God-given position and they will become civilized and no longer be a heathen by converting to Christianity in order to keep the capitalist system expanding and making them easier to control.
You're just a brainwashed descendant....ignorant as *** using a religion that destroyed you to spit back at others.
The funniest thing about you people is that you're just as bad as you think everyone else is cause you're a judgmental *** casting condemnation when you're in no position to do so. If you think God has a problem with anything mind your business and let the Higher Power deal with them directly...you're not needed.
@PeepsintheSheet Love it. That was a much classier way of talking to these fools. This stuff gets me heated.
#1 It's her life and let her do as she see fit. Only God can judge. And I don't believe she's *** until she announces it with pics of her girlfriend.
#2 The industry, music and film, are ran by *** so if you want to be in this industry keep your anti-*** statements to yourself.
#3 people love to use this quote: Leviticus 20: 13 13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
First off the above quote is in the Leviticus book/chapter that also says a child who disobeys their parents shall be put to death; and if a husband or wife commits adultery they should be put to death...Now if you really look at this statement it contradicts itself. If one of God's commandments is "THY SHALL NOT KILL," why is there talk of putting to death in any of these scriptures? God is a perfect entity that created the heavens and earth, do you think he loves a *** any less than heterosexuals? God makes no mistakes...You deal with your own life and do the miracles God put you here to do...YOU let God do the judging because you are not and never will be on his LEVEL!
Lmao@myxy. The bible thumpers here are hilarious. Who are you to judge? *** is repentable. You straight people who think you're doing nothing wrong are the ones who'll be turned away at the pearly gates. Oral and anal *** are sins whether or not you're married. Abortion, premarital *** and contraceptive use is also frowned upon. Im not saying that i agree with ***, but Im no ***. Unless you're pure, you have no right to judge a sexual sin. I say this because every *** i know is either promiscuous, had multiple abortions, has cheated, has unnatural *** (anal/oral), fornicated and have out-of-wedlock kids. Im abstinent and engaged, yet i couldn't give a rats *** about judging ***. Straight men notoriously have ***, usually not consensual, with men when little to no women are around. Prison, county, military and ancient Greece are great examples.
@ thattallguy773: THANK YOU and I co-sign.
@ myxy and everyone that is bashing the President: PRESIDENT OBAMA HAS NOT MADE A NEW POLICY ON *** MARRIAGE. The *** policy is state-to-state. THE STATE MAKES THEIR OWN *** MARRIAGE POLICY and it's only about six states that has this policy.
And myxy if stating his opinion makes him ***, then I guess you would know since you sound *** daily!!! Get off off here and read a book sometime, learn. Better yet, vote ReTHUGlican since they want to cut your welfare checks off and cut out Social Security that people with REAL jobs get taken out of their checks, you redneck coon!
@Peepin ***, everyone is entitled to their opinion, I mines you yours. I am a spiritual being and believe in God's words. I did not at any time dictate what if any religion I was a part of, what I did dictate is that I follow THE WORD.
Jesus himself founded the church (Institution).
MATTHEW 16:18
18 And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
AND HE INSTITUTED CHURCH DISCIPLINE
MATTHEW 18:15-20
15 âIf your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. 16 But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every charge may be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses. 17 If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector. 18 Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. 19 Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.â
HE ALSO HAD HIS DISCIPLES TO BAPTIZE PEOPLE AND TO TEACH OTHERS TO OBEY EVERYTHING HE COMMANDED (Matt. 28:19-20). HE ALSO INSISTED PEOPLE BELIEVE HIM AND CERTAIN THINGS ABOUT HIM (John 3:16-18; 8:24)
SO HE ESTABLISHED RELIGION HERE ON EARTH.
THE RELIGION TO WHAT YOU SPEAK OF IS MAN MADE RELIGION AND THE BIBLE SPEAKS OF THAT IN:
COLOSSIANS 2:23
23 These have indeed an appearance of wisdom in promoting self-made religion and asceticism and severity to the body, but they are of no value in stopping the indulgence of the flesh.
When people often speak of not being religious or following religion it is manmade religion they are speaking of. That's why I follow his word, not a church, clergyman, or what society says I ought to think. My mind is a free as it can be that's why I CHOOSE to believe in GOD'S WORD. I quoted scripture to show the words I am standing on and why I have the beliefs that I do. What words are you standing on?
Secondly if you are going to mention what the Bible speaks of then you need to show scripture on your talking points. People tend to believe a lot of things according to what someone says or what they say the bible speaks of but when you ask them for scripture, or reference they have none. Have you read the scriptures you are speaking of for yourself? Just because someone used Bible scripture to manipulate or enslave others (weak minded people) into doing or believing a certain way, does not mean that the scripture itself is stating the same point that they are using to deceive their audience.
As a person with a conscience mind I have to read things for myself to discern the truth of things, not because someone has a strong opinion about their beliefs. That's another reason I provided scripture, people can read for themselves and determine what is true for them. I am sharing knowledge you are trying to, "get about it." You are trying to have a fight where there is none. Why are you so offended by GOD's WORD? As I said before GOD ALWAYS WINS. So if you want to argue GOD'S WORD, I SUGGEST YOU TAKE IT UP WITH THE ALMIGHTY.
Next time you want to fight someone come ready to battle, you sir/ma'am ARE UNPREPARED!
@ La La ding ding ding we have a winner. It's sad but it's true these are MAN MADE laws to control. I'm waiting for some dumb *** to start raging a war against eating shrimp because according to your "Holy Book" it's an abomination. I'm still surprised in today's society we still believe in fairy tale stories that were written by people that didn't even know where the sun went at ***. I mean come on people a talking snake? A freaking tree of knowledge that once you eat off it you're smart and know all? Really people. Really?
The ppl. of the world are so confused, 2 women in a bed together is stupid and plain lustful. if it's true, what do u expect from a girl who grew up in hollyweird??? Nothing is sweeter than making love to a straight man, ohhhh lawd. Not a woman who looks like a man. These girls r confused and following a trend.
@ISIS I Thought I was THE ONLY ONE Who Knew That Secret About Shakespear in Psalm 46 ***High Five To You!
And @LaLaPurpleLaLa Girl You Hit The Nail On The Head... For Years I would argue with Black Folks About Their Master's Religion and they did seem to understand where I was coming From! You Bible Thumpers are Hilarious....
I have a Minor in (HIS)TORY ~ That doesn't make me a scholar on religion, but at least it took me back far enough to know that KING JAMES was Gaay Himself and he APPOINTED Writers To RE-WRITE HIS VERSION Of THE BIBLE... That's Why It's Called The King James VERSION...
Anyway... History Lesson's Over... But I'm Excited To See There Are Many Of My Brother's and Sisters Who Are AWAKENING!
@NOLEMAN1, it is and I was mad when I read it because I love shrimp. But we are told not to eat certain things because of how it affects the body and we are paying for it with cancer and disease. There are also other things at work with that too. I could go deep into with that topic, but I will just suggest you read Vatican Assassins by Eric Jon Phelps, thereâs a part in the book it that talks about vaccination and immunizations and the REAL PURPOSE BEHIND THEM and the testing conducted on people and technology in Vietnam (the real purpose behind that war) interesting read. The book basically discusses, the Black Pope and the alleged truthful events behind a lot of historical invents dating back to the 15th century.
@ Everyone, Why are we getting made at bible scripture? Who are you really made at? No one is Judging Raven we do not even know if this story is true. It is the ACT of *** that is being judge according to and by the word, therefore man does not have to judge because itâs already been judged.
I know I personally quoted scripture about other sins and stated in my first post I was convicted (guilty) as well and needed to pray. So nobody is acting like they are perfect.
And everybody who is keeps jumping on the bandwagon speaking on The Bible being used us a weapon against Blacks and Africans provide references of which you speak of if you want to really educate people, because other than that itâs just white noise (how ironic). As I stated in my second post just because someone uses the Bible to manipulate others does not mean the word itself is stating the same point. The word gets abused all the time that does not mean the word is bad; itâs the people abusing it that are bad, come on, wake up.
I am not a Bible thumper; however I will use the word to defend my position because I am standing on his word. You are so heated either you believe or you donât, your choice. There is no need to insult others for their beliefs we are all entitled to believe what we want.
Is America not a free country, for now? We do have freedom of religion, for now.
I know itâs a hot topic but no need to get hot.
John 14:27 27 âPeace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.â
I know I just PO somebody again, itâs all in love, God Bless!
And Iâm OUUUUUUUUUT!
Here yall go again LOL. Anyway...I KNEW IT! Raven been a fat hard faced carpet crawler for the longest. Azmarie can do better...oh I forgot Raven's money. You better get married while you got that *** fame *** obama in the white house. When is he going to come out the closet? Boy has he been a real disapointment!
@ Gems,If you don't like your president, do something about it, get him out the office instead of asking why he's still in there on this website. I don't like people selling fake gems and claiming they got a store and you sell to celebs, which is not true but nobody's coming to your fake place of buisness and pulling you out by your leg and burning you alive, are they? No, we let you remain on this website to cry about things you can't change while sounding like a 10 yr old who can't have her way.
The pres must get under your skin to bring him in a thread that has nothing to do with him. Your character is sad. ANKH you very much.
@gottadobetter LUST IS LUST NO MATTER WHAT your sexual orienatation is!!...That is one of the seven deadly SINS!!!...Straight people just have LUST for the opposite ***!!!... And it sounds like you have that LUSTFUL SPIRIT for men by the way you described making love to a straight man!!!....Why do you think so many straight people fornicate all the *** time and think NOTHING OF IT...and many of you females produce so many children out of wedlock???...
..THats the problem with most straight people they think "ANYTHING GOES" as long as its with the OPPOSITE *** and that is so NOT TRUE if you are calling yourself a "CHRISTIAN" ...you all will be punished for your sins as well according to the same bible you quote from to condemn ***!!!...
not surprised hollywood turns em out young.. life for young blk women with the media and all its images against you, the music industry and all those years of hate thrown @ u no wonder why women r just giving up. chasing girls that wanna be boys... they destroy women esp black all the time nothing new here... hollywoods agenda.yall just caught.up and they on the 3rd act..
@1Q69 People were talking about the president since you think you know so much about me, you would know I ALREADY said what I'm going to do about it. I'm not voting, but look at you...crying because you don't like what I said? What are YOU going to do about that? Not a *** thing but SOB AND TYPE : ( awwww I hurt your little wittle feelings. Go so your mammy can nurse you back to health LOL
Now when you want to talk like an adult about my thoughts, wipe your tears, latch off the t!t and gather your emotions ok
@RealPeeps You Didn't Call Me Out By Name, but You Did Ask The EDUCATORS for References... So I felt It Was My Duty To Come Up With a Few...
In No Way, Shape, or Form Am I Trying To Belittle The Religion That Many Christians and their ancestors have known ALL Their Lives... But I'm Merlely trying to offer what others in this blog have done and that is to DO RESEARCH FOR YOURSELF ~ THEN DECIDE What is Right for You. Below are CURRENT References Regarding KING JAMES beging ***... There are MANY OTHERS, but this should get you skeptics to look in this direction if this in fact is the road you are READY to go down... I'm NOT TRYING To Step On Toes!!!
Other than that! I Love EVERYONE Christians, Muslims, Jews, Catholics, Etc...
But I Also Know That... WHEN YOU KNOW BETTER ~ YOU DO BETTER
REFERENCES:
King James' favorite male lovers were the Earl of Somerset and the Duke of Buckingham. - Ben Edward Akerly, The X-rated Bible
James's sexual orientation was so widely known that Sir Walter Raleigh joked about it in public saying "King Elizabeth" had been succeeded by "Queen James." - Catherine D. Bowen, The Lion and the Throne
King James was a known *** who murdered his young lovers and victimized countless heretics and women. His cruelty was justified by his "divine right" of kings. - Otto J. Scott, James the First
Although the title page of The King James Bible boasted that it was "newly translated out of the original tongues," the work was actually a revision of The Bishop's Bible of 1568, which was a revision of The Great Bible of 1539, which was itself based on three previous English translations from the early 1500s. So, the men who produced the King James Bible not only inherited some of the errors made by previous English translators, but invented some of their own. Desiderius Erasmus was a "Christian humanist" who collected Greek (and Latin) New Testament manuscripts and compared and edited them, verse by verse, selecting what he considered to be the best variant passages, until he had compiled what came to be known as the "textus receptus." Early English translations of the Bible, like those mentioned above, were based on his "textus receptus." Erasmus was also a monk whom some historians believe engaged in *** activities. But without both King James and Erasmus, the most widely touted Bible in Christian history would never have been produced, the KJV (or shall we say, ***-JV?) Bible. - Skip Church
@ Vixenise....Please tell me where it is stated anywhere in the Bible that *oral* *** is a sin. @ Stormzoee...please tell me when Queen Latifah came out and made known to all that she is a ***? Since the 90's people have always ASSumed that about her. Even though, she may chase skirts, she has never comfirmed any of the *** talk.
@EnYourImage*com
Nothing you said surprised me, matter of fact, I would like to add that King James and his men went so far as to erase God's name (Jehovah) from the bible. What people do not understand or know is that the harlot in the book of Revelations represents nothing but false religions who prostitutes themselves out to the beast (governments) and get drunk off of all sorts of gross sins, so once again, the information you shared does not shock me.
Also Vixenise, the only time that oral *** is forbidden like any other *** is when it is *pre-marital* Get your facts straight be4 u start talking about what *the bible says* Smdh That's the problem now...everybody want to rewrite God's word to fit warp thinking and foolish lifestyles. I'll tell u what u won't find in the Bible Sweetie and that is anything condoning ***.
"the National Enquirer has a rep of not putting out BULLSH*T"
LMAO, since when??????
...btw, for all you straight azzholes that are condemning *** people, remember this. if you're having *** and you're not married, or shacking up with someone & having babies out of wedlock, you're going to hell too. you'll probably get there faster than any *** person would. men laying with their own kind is a sin? NEWSFLASH:men laying with a woman that is not his wife is a sin too. heterosexuals destroyed this planet & society as a whole and commit FAR more sins than any *** person could even think to commit.
Well first of all it's the National Enquirer. Even MTO couldnt resist making a sarcastic comment. Secondly I don't believe in dragging people out of the closet before their ready. Thirdly it must be very difficult being a *** person in a culture that has minimal tolerance for it. And lastly, since you're talking about him Obama 2012 :-)
@THIS*WOMAN'S*WORK it amazes me how straight people rationalize & try to justify their sins in order to make *** people seem like the Ultimate sinners. i don't recall reading anything in the Bible that condones oral ***, premarital or not, dear. Sin is Sin, point blank. and until someone can post a scripture that declares *** as The Ultimate Sin Above All Others, then you folks need to STFU. Only God Can Judge. Period, end of story.
Politics & religion two subjects that can be endlessly debated.The Bible states that Sodom & Gomorrah were destroyed for going after the fresh for unnatural use. (Genesis & The Letter of Jude) Please note in The Book of Genesis the men of the town want to know the men whom Lot took into his house . The men were in fact angels. Lot begged them to take his virgin daughters. *** is biblically wrong. When it comes to sin there's no lesser sin , sin is sin. Fornication & adultery are sins. Everyone will answer to the Lord . As for putting down the Bible not going to happen- As for me & my house we shall serve the Lord.
Ransomedflag as inappropriate/spam Even though I am NOT a *** I understand sisters saying *** it and giving up on black men ...not even lying. I myself love that *** entirely too much to ever go that route but I ain't mad at 'em. At least they don't have to worry about STD's, unwanted pregnancies, baby mama's, unemployed or underemployed black men. It's really a win-win situation.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Please tell me your Trolling. So a woman dissappointment in a man would somehow make her attracted to the same *** and even go as far as wearing a strap on? Sounds like a Tyler perry film in the making .
@Topic Do anybody grow up in hollywood normal ?
And I guess Iâm back
@EnYourImage*com, I actually already knew about King James being *** as well as the Bible being used against slaves. The slaves were told the color of their skin and servitude was a sign of the curse (Curse of Canaan) in Genesis 9:20-27 in which Noah put on Hamâs son Canaan(only his descendants) for looking upon his farther Noahâs nakedness and then telling his two brothers Shem and Japheth, to justify enslavement of Black Africans by their masters.
I could go into further detail of when the curse was fulfilled. I would just say it happened when the Semites (Israel) and Japethites (Philistines) led by Joshua occupied Canaan, and Ill leave it there.
I understand your point of using King James sexual orientation as a reason to question the validity of the Bible. I have been there, just as I have, when I too said some of the people in the church or worst than the one ones on the outside, the pastor is a *** and *** and has the nerve to preach the opposite. I have said it all, believe me.
But what I realized it was not raging against GOD nor man.
Ephesians 6:12 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Although man has changed and keeps changing, GOD has remained unmoved only man has. I could not see it before and now I do. I do not expect to convince anyone of anything. Only to lay out what I know for myself, everything in its own time. So I do not get upset at others ignorance or when others ridicule, insult, or curse me out because I know its not them but the spirit on them, and they have to CHOOSE to fight. I can only pray, love, and drop knowledge. When people say we are being manipulated I understand better than they know, its not a black or white thing or religious thing, its have and have not, thats what everything is coming down to, the ultimate struggle for POWER.
Another scripture I want to point out to you
Proverbs 3: 5-6 5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.
I cannot explain how or why God uses the people and the things he does. To the best of my knowledge he allows people to go through trials and tribulations to bring them out just when they think there is no way, he makes a way (I now youâve heard this before), think JOB, David and Goliath, and the Walls of Jericho falling after the people marched around them for seven days. Anything is possible with God, it is THEN when we are able to recognize it is GOD who worked a miracle for us because the situation was impossible (in our mind). So why wouldnt God use a *** King to further his word he used a donkey to talk to Balaam in Numbers 22:21-28 and II Peter 2:16.
God also uses:
1 Corinthians 1:27-29 27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; 28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: 29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.
So who are any of us to question who he uses for his Glory. I also want to straighten something out the topic at hand was about *** but all sins are in the same category (except blasphemy against GOD because its an unforgiveable sin Matthew 12:31) no one is saying one is worst then the others. We all fall *** of GODS Glory, the only we will make it is through Jesus.
John 14:6 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
I will be judged, you will be judged and everybody will be judged according to the word.
Let the Church say Amen!
The bible also says to respect the law of the land so if Obama say its ok to be *** and becomes law. All the bible freaks gotta respect it riiiight?
Anywho. On topic: I'm not surprised. U ain't never seen raven w no d!ck lmao. But least ha girl cute. Can't stand *** dagger *** lol they be to serious lol
@thesweet1 on instagram or twitter
@SashaBanks, wrong one scripture on this Mark 7:3-15. When you abandon GODS commandments for mans traditions that are in direct conflict with his word you nullify it. When you dont follow his word there is a price to pay just think about some of the consequences of your actions, we all have them when we operate outside his word.
Well...AzMarie is the flavor of the month right now for the bi-curious celebrity that may want to "taste the rainbow," so it's no surprise that Raven...rumored to be into girls would pursue her and have her stay with her while in NY. Like so many other comments...I'll wait until TMZ reports it or some pictures surface....at least she chose a model versus some one along the lines of Chaz Bono. Just saying.
@Nurse2002 That's so true. People go crazy about their politics and religion. I just gave my true thoughts about the topics discussed, not addressing anyone, and that dumb psycho *** 1Q69 talking about dragging ppl out into the streets and burning them alive LOL You can't rationalize with crazy. All these crack brains fuqqers probably bloggin from the pen
Regarding the person who was quoting Leviticus' law or scriptures, you really sound very ignorant of the Bible in its entirety. I could give you a scripture to offset every one of those scriptures you quoted. I'm sure it'll be way more *** in heaven than there'll be straight ***. You really need to study your Bible and fellowship with someone you can talk to about it. God bless you.

****************************************************************
No I'm not trolling and as sexy as you are you're probably good for a lil romp in the hay but I bet you aren't about to settle down anytime in the next 20 years so like I said...*** is a viable option for black women at this point...especially those that won't date other. And NO strap on...that's ridiculous. The most a woman can do is lickety lick that ***. ;)

@Tiplite Of course she's a troll. You need to pay closer attention sweetie. Its all part of the fun. Btw thanks for the eye candy. MTO doesn't give us any :-(
*************************************** Oh the wanna be down white *** is on my *** again. *** up you kangaroo *** and go cook dinner for Tyrone and don't forget to turn over that check! WTF you care about me for? You *** are pathetic. Keep it moving trick and don't worry about Ransomed!!!!!
Sashaflopped , Im going to ignore this woma's works because she comes across as a condescending idiot. I've read the bible cover to cover several times since five, so Im well aware. Most likely she Googled it which would lead her to sites that aren't credible saying otherwise. Anyhow, thanks for being a person who reads the bible yet doesn't judge. Many believers come down on people, but don't even know what they're talking about. "God made Adam and eve, not Adam and Steve." I always respond with, who was his first wife, which is always followed by silence lol.
@Kanga i had to switch up the Avi after Mto featured Shemar 3 days in a row. Couldn't let him shine on me :-)
@Ransomed I wasn't trying to start anything, but ive heard women say That a few times before and my question is HOW CAN HEARTBREAKS AND DISSAPPOINTMENTS FROM THE OPPOSITE *** MAKE YOU PHYSICALLY ATTRACTED TO THE SAME ***?
If a black man came out and said "Im doing men because my last 5 GF weren't sh.it you'd call ***.it and say That ***.a been *** right? Exactly. So why do women get to use That scapegoat? I think secretly all alone they've had an attraction and need an excuse to slide out the closet.
And thankyou i am in a relationship with an older women get, i just like to flirt alot.
I'll check for your response later, Its laker time.
@Iiiceeee Paul gasol gotta step it up . Watch the game and double your tithes on Sunday lol
I can appreciate someone using the bible to correct ignorance instead of preaching to insult others. Well stated. As for the topic at hand...in the times we are living in, nothing shocks me anymore. I have my own issues/flaws so I'd be out of place to judge others for what they do. Truth is, life is a constant battle with temptation, trials and tribulations. Lust, like every other sin is so tempting because satan already knows your weakness. I hope to have a closer, more committed relationship with the lord so I too can turn the other cheek in times of confrontation and trial and error. I also wanted to add that God uses everyones flaws for his greatness to show people how magnificent and powerful he is even in our darkess hour. Theres hope for everyone. No one is a lost cause unless they choose to be. Amen.
@Ransomed I was talking about you not to you but OK. I have no interest in outing you. Just knowing that you know that I know is good enough for me. I am quite bored here but knowing that my being here is irritating to you is inspiration for me to keep resurrecting myself over and over again whenever I get myself banned. Oh btw "wanna be down"??? Sorry I'm a foreigner. What does that even mean. Cheers
And my bad, you don't act like a 10 yr old acting like she can't get her way, more of on the lines of a 2 yr old banging on the computer mad cause you were born a loser. Oh, and FYI (this is between me and you)
OBAMA IS YOUR, REPEAT, "YOUR" PRESIDENT..... Move to hell if you don't like it, I heard all your relatives are there. Go pay them a visit, don't forget to write.
@firstjohn, just by your word usage, and tone of your comment I know this would not be a fair fight. You dont have to agree with my interpretation neither do you have to insult someones intelligence while flaunting the lack of your own intelligence for the public. Youre telling me to study the Bible (LOL) yet you offer no scriptures to make your point. What scriptures are you standing on?
It is not me you have problem with its the word and probably because youve been convicted by it. And if you have scriptures to offset GODS WORD lets hear it otherwise watch your tongue. I suggest you take your own advice, I fellowship plenty especially today by dropping knowledge to anyone who wants to receive it. Its only the angry, confused, and convicted who seems to have an issue with it.
Thank you for the Blessing Same to You!
Lol @ MTO only yall would post a picture of Raven Symone as the sweet little innocent 4year old Olivia who she played as a child star on The Cosby show with this story of ***. If she has in fact turned to women for companionship then I guess she has her own personal reasons behind it, though It is self evident that man and woman were created for one another specifically. I didn't come here to try and convince anyone of that fact,because man will always try to find right in the wrong we do no matter what the crime is; If it makes them feel good for the moment with instant gratification as the reward then that's all that ever matters to most people! The Bible is in fact the only book that gives humans the counsel and guidance on which how to best live our lives so that we can have a life which is pleasing to God by honoring him plus allowing us the tools needed to cope with the trials & tribulations of human suffering during these last days. The problem is the Bibles Hebrew and Greek scriptures have been transformed/changed so much through the history of it's existence that people interpret it's scripture and stories to suit their own lifestyles so that they can live guilt free with the choices they make. Sure the Bible has it's fair share of ***,thieves,killers,false religions, ***, slanderers, blasphemers, fake politicians, waring armies, famines, pestilence and all the other casualties that plague us today (which some view as contradictory story telling),because Jesus did show kindness, patience, love and counsel to those who indulged in these things to show acceptance for all mankind, but for REPENTANCE in return only.... I believe the moral of all those stories in the Bible were to show us the harm which comes to the world and the destruction of those persons who chose and continue to choose unclean lifestyles and in the end what will happen to us all. I to am a flawed sinning human being and I know that in God's eyes Sin=Sin no matter how we rate it on earth so I to must keep improving my life and doing what is pleasing God and best for my eternal existence for me to have those rewards stored up later, but sill I fall *** too so I must try not to be judgmental of Raven or anyone else.
@Ddrgt1, I already know. The the topic be about the sky. She has to feel good about herself and attack the pres, like he's losing sleep over her rants on a gossip site.... LOSER! She's a fake gem selling, cat lovin (she probably has *** with it, white people are into *** like that) scamp that stays on MTO crying about Obama.... who does that.... LMAO
She stays getting clowned under all her MTO coon *** masks. I bet she sleeps with a bottle of sleeping pills, waiting for the day MTO is no more.

People talking about how wrong *** is according to the Bible. LMAO. Did you knew that God allowed incest many years according to the Bible...let's see... Cain and his sister...Abraham and his half-sister/ or cousin (isn't clear yet) Sara...and OH YEAH!! Do you know about this Lot guy right? He has 2 daughter which got him drunk in turns and had *** with him, because they wanted to spreed his seed... So, I'm sorry but incest is more *** up than 2 girls loving each other.
**claps**Thank u Webstedd! I was about to say the same thing to Sasha. Vixen brought up the bible and in her post, she stated some things that were false. I corrected her but bc (@ Sasha) you felt the need to bring up all those other *sins* only leads one to believe that u r battling with *** in the *worst* way. Furthermore, I never called it the *ultimate* sin. Sin is sin. I will say again though...oral *** is NOT forbidden between husband and wife. As for respecting the law of the land....if that ain't the most stupid thing I've read this morning...Sweetie, I don't care if President Obama is cool with *** marrying each other. I don't care how many people jump on THAT bandwagon just bc the president has had a change of heart...I won't. That shows just how gullible u are. Do u really think that meant for one to go against God's word? Smh
@ Vixenise....you've read what book five times from front to back???? I doubt it was the Bible....maybe a Barney book...then again, there are many who read and still come out not knowing anything they just read. Did u pray for understanding prior to reading God's word *five times* Based off of your warped thinking, I don't think u did. At the end of the day, I can back up what I've posted but u still haven't come with your proof that oral *** is forbidden between husband and wife. YOU can keep trying to Google it bc Sweetie u won't find it. It never ceases to amaze me how people like to put emphasis on the number of times they've read the Bible as if that means something! Hell Satan ALSO knows the Bible better than any of us, but does he live it? No, he is too busy brainwashing those like u who r so quick to follow the leader...the wrong one.
God made WOMAN FOR MAN not woman! Poor lil evil kids....HELL IS HOT....and i don't mean that in a good way!! All you women with a male demon that makes you want a woman need to ask GOD to burn that out of you. You have not because you ask not. Stop trying to do what everyone else is doing just to seem down. That sh-t is leading you straight to HELL! Be who GOD made you!!! Stand up for what's right for a change and get off the bandwagon!!! You love ***....you won't be saying that when you're in hell and those same demons that deceived your lil azz is ripping the skin off your body and stabbing you with spears for all eternity!!! WAKE UP!!!
And to whom it may concern, you can repent and be forgiven for anything you do or have done if you never turn back to that sin again. But how many *** do you know that are going to repent from sleeping with a man or woman of the same *** and never do it again? Lets be real! That is demon possession! That goes far deeper than repentance, you have to get that demon cast out of you! Bottom Line!!
@THIS*WOMAN'S*WORK you're wrong...
sodomy is having ANAL OR ORAL *** between members of the opposite ***!!!...
The bible does NOT CONDONE THOSE BEHAVIORS even if you are MARRIED!!!...
Its sounds that you straight black females have that more of a lustful spirit coming out on here since you're deadset on trying to convince yourself that the bible approves of sucking your husband's dyck!!!...
SO ALL YOU *** BLACK BYTCHES on here THAT SUCK DYCK NOW or have in the past are just as guilty and will be punished as a *** person!!!...
Disregard what I was about to say in my previous post. Just know that u will NOT find proof of scripture putting limits on the sexual relationships of a *Godly* husband and wife. KEY WORD IS GODLY. That's for the warp thinkers who think It's cool (with their spouse's consent) to engage in orgies, etc. Check out 1 Cor. 7:2 At the end of the day, *** is a sin like other sins, and it will be dealt with so carry on...go ahead and give us 100 other sins but let me tell u a little secret....it doesn't make *** less of a sin. It is what it is. None of us r perfect and there is room for all to grow so don't get mad, get *right*
It's funnny how all the sinners wanna get sanctified and holy against ***, when you aint got a hell to put nobody in. Good for Raven I hope she's in real love. Stop using the Bible to hate,, and let God be the judge for everything. You just make sure when your time comes you are on the right said, and you can tell God you loved all Her children. Do any of you pseudo-internet-bible-thumpers actually read your bible? and the you say whats true when you don't even know the truth about organized religion. you can't handle the truth, spread love. oh, and follow me on the twitter.
@ ***, one of the consequences of CHOOSING to leave in sin is confusion. You can't see the forest for the trees even when someone is pointing the way. Following God's word is spiritual not religious, in all these comments I have not read, no one said anything about their religious affiliation only an obedience to following his words. To follow his word is not to hate but to be obedient. Just because I don't agree with a person's lifestyle does not mean I don't love them. You should take your own advice because you are coming from a place of negativity with your insults, I am coming from a place of love by sharing the word. Just because you dont have an ear to, eyes to see, or a desire to learn dont prevent anybody else from doing so. And if you know so much about the Bible you would know, you (meaning us all) are already being judged by the word. It's that judgement in the word that's really eating you up so its hard for you to deal with it, just as it should be, because you have been convicted by the word.
I cant speak for anyone else but I know a lot more about organized religion and how it came to be more than you know. Following GODS word is the conclusion I have reached.
Follow your own path I hope it leads you to some place good.
The Devil cant keep me down. I will take @King Beef Atl's advice and let the dead bury the dead.
1. People say some mean and nasty things about ***. I'm glad I know God. I've been a follower since I was in kindergarten.
SPIRITUAL INSIGHT -- I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me. Proverbs 8:17
2. Someone mentioned the Leviticus law. It clearly states that thou *** not lie with mankind, as with womankind. We realize that God made a woman for a man. However, all things are not that cut and dried.
SPIRITUAL INSIGHT -- Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. Galatians 2:16
3. What's worse is that those main people that like to harp on *** don't seem to realize that they, themselves, are just as messed up in some way and are just as "wrong" as any ***.
SPIRITUAL INSIGHT -- For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. James 2:10
4. No one that I know of "chooses" to be ***. It is what it is.
SPIRITUAL INSIGHT -- That which is crooked cannot be made straight: and that which is wanting cannot be numbered. Ecclesiastes 1:15
5. There are some people who are ***, yet they think that they can change that by trying to be someone that they are not. Perhaps they are also confused and don't know the truth. They are too busy trying to live for others.
SPIRITUAL INSIGHT -- Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he hath made crooked? Ecclesiastes 7:13
6. Some people even think that it is something bad or evil, to be ***. And even if it is bad or evil, it is still created by God for a reason.
SPIRITUAL INSIGHT -- I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things. Isaiah 45:7
7. There's not one person on this earth without sin; therefore, why would some people try to stay focused on someone who is ***?
SPIRITUAL INSIGHT -- And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? St. Matthew 7:3
8. Just because a person is *** does not mean that that person is not, or can not be, saved. God sent us His Son after the laws of Leviticus were written, so that we could have forgiveness and divine guidance.j His greatest attribute is His tender mercy.
SPIRITUAL INSIGHT -- For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. St. John 3:16
9. Believing in God and believing in his Son Jesus Christ is not that hard to do. Salvation is free and it can belong to any one of us, whether you're *** or straight.
SPIRITUAL INSIGHT -- That if thou *** confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and *** believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou *** be saved. Romans 10:9
10. We are all going to continue to mess up and be imperfect in this life, though we try to do right by people and by God.
SPIRITUAL INSIGHT -- For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. Psalm 51:3
11. God is not stupid, nor does he go back and forth on his word and his promises. Once we have confessed and have accepted him, He stays with us. And as we continue to ask Him for His guidance He guides us and protects us.
SPIRITUAL INSIGHT -- In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise. Ephesians 1:8
12. That's why it is so important to "study" as well as to pray and to fellowship. Many people go to church and fellowship. And many people pray and ask God for stuff. But not many people actually take the time to "study" the word for themselves; but rather, they listen to what other people tell them.
SPIRITUAL INSIGHT -- Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. II Timothy 2:15
CLOSING REMARKS: I would be damned if I just stood and let someone try to make me feel less than a child of God just because they happen to be attracted to the opposite ***. If you like the opposite ***, then just count your blessings; but you can't belittle me because I like the same ***. I am who I am; I am who God made me. Amen.
@firstjohn, All though you have quoted scripture you still have not made your first point which was, I COULD GIVE YOU A SCRIPTURE TO OFFSET EVERY ONE OF THOSE SCRIPTURES YOU QUOTED.
You havent presented any scripture to nullify each one of the scriptures I quoted.
WHO TOLD YOU, YOU WERE NOT A CHILD OF GOD? NO ONE SAID THAT, if you had read all my post thoroughly you would have known I said, I ALSO WANT TO STRAIGHTEN SOMETHING OUT, ALTHOUGH THE TOPIC AT HAND IS ABOUT ***, ALL SINS ARE IN THE SAME CATEGORY, EXCEPT BLASPHEMY AGAINST GOD BECAUSE ITS AN UNFORGIVEABLE SIN MATTHEW 12:31) NO ONE IS SAYING ONE IS WORST THEN THE OTHERS. WE ALL FALL *** OF GODS GLORY; THE ONLY WAY WE WILL MAKE IT IS THROUGH JESUS. All are guilty and you have to choose to fight no matter the sin, and believe in Jesus.
John 14:6 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. -End
The only reason I posted scripture on *** was because that was the topic being discussed. If the topic had of been on a different subject, say fornication, adultery, covetous, or respecting your parents then I would have presented scripture on those subjects. Yes the sin of *** can be forgiven according to the word just like any other sin if you repent and turn away from it just like any other sin.
Ezekiel 18:21-22 But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die. All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live -End
The very thing that some people are accusing those of us who are quoting scripture, they themselves are guilty of; that is picking and choosing parts of the bible to follow. What I clearly see is you trying to reason (make an excuse for) with your sin. Itâs the same way someone who fornicates tries to reason with their sin by saying if you love someone then its okay to have *** outside of marriage. There is a scripture Roman 1:26-32, which talks about people who have chosen to live in sin and GOD giving them over to a reprobate mind (Roman 1:28). I discussed this before, you are either unable to see what you are doing is wrong or do see it but refuse to repent and turn away from it. When it is brought to your attention or when someone is not like minded you get angry and attack.
GOD gave us his word so when can follow it, because when we operate outside of it we bring destruction to ourselves and that is clearly whats happening today because of ALL SINS.
That feeling of being attacked by the word is conviction because you are realizing what you are doing is wrong. Instead of trying to fight against the word by trying to discredit it, fight the spirit that is on you.
Ephesians 6:12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. âEnd
Understand although I do not wrestle with the sin of ***, I do wrestle with sin and I get convicted by the word also. You or any other person being *** does not make me love them any less. I am a sinner to I wouldnt want anybody to not love me because of that, especially GOD, so why would I do it to another?
Something I mentioned before you never know who GOD will use murder, ***, fornicator, adulterer, or a man/woman who lies with someone of the same ***, because he has used the LEAST of them for his Glory (so that we know he is God).
You may be lost but you are not out!
Yes indeed, "thanks to the PERVERTED world of DISNEY" because every other company around was paying $2 and something an hour, while at Walt Disney World I was paid $8.50 an hour. What a comparison. I was perhaps one of the first Black people to work there when Disney had first opened in Florida.
*** thereafter, I recall one particular woman named Anita Bryant, who was widely known for her Florida Orange Juice commercials on television. She'd started making public statements about how bad *** people were, that they were sinners and terrible people. In response, many of the people around me started boycotting orange juice. The orange juice boycott spread nationally. Miss Bryant was soon taken off television... plus her husband left her.
Instead of "75% of their staff is ***" it seemed more like 90% to me. I was only seventeen years old at the time, and it was interesting to see how much power and influence that these good people had.
In addition, the Vietnam war came to an end and there was no more drafting.
I had a lot to be thankful to God for. Call it what you like. If it were not for *** people I would've been messed up in school and at the start of my adult life. *** were the educated ones and the ones with class and style; the so-called straight ones were making $2 an hour and had a very downward way of thinking and living. I knew that it was something very special about God's children.
If you're ***, you're just ***. And there's nothing you could really do about that. It's very sad people judge these people. God brought them into this world for a reason. No one asks to come here ***... in fact, no one asks to come here period. Which is why it is so important to live and let live.
I used to wish I was straight, but now that I'm older I'm glad I'm ***... because the "straight" ones are so weak and misguided and judgmental, in general, in certain communities. Not all, but most.
*** is biological, not psychological. Black people, of all people, should know better and understand what it is like to be discriminated against and called names. Yet, they are the meanest ones (the women in particular) towards *** in their community. There's no blessing in this type of division. When I moved into non-black communities I never felt discriminated against. A white person has never called me a ***; only other blacks hurled that word. It's very hard to live and succeed around people who think downwardly.
SPIRITUAL INSIGHT -- And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand: St. Matthew 12:25
There are many black males who are not ***, but still there is that deep need for a father's affection. They need that bond with another male. There's nothing wrong with that: it's not going to turn them ***. I once saw Kirk Franklin, the legendary gospel performer, hug a young male singer for doing a great job, and the lookers-on (Mary Mary, of gospel fame) immediately yelled at Mr. Franklin, "What are you doing?!" That type of deprivation or judgment seemed so mean and unfair, where as sisters have all the love and support in the world from each other. Black males are criticized for being affectionate towards each other... even when they are not ***. They're criticized when they dress neatly: the first out of chicks mouths is, "he's ***" just because he's not sagging or thugged out. It's a mess.
I'm on my knees to pray for all people in this world to be delivered from this bondage that has such a tight grip on them. But when you reject GOD you *** your own self. There is no need to argue with the dead. Jesus died for our sins so we would have life. You do have free will. Just be ready to be judged by GOD for you choice. You can't say that you were not warned.
black folks used be cool now most of them are acting *** nobody is born *** people choose to be that way i see a lot of women acting like *** the bible says the wages of sin is death and look at black people they got the most stds and murders in thier commmuntys call on jesus and he will set you free and give you what you need when i started putting god first my life changed i got money and diamond watches if he could do it for me he can do it for you
It's always shocking to read the narrow minded, *** comments that use the Bible as their basis. So, if the Bible says that we should stone people who commit adultery - does that mean we should take it literally. The Bible says that if a woman's husband dies, she must marry his brother; hope you like your in-laws. Don't get me started on shellfish! I especially like the morons like the NC pastor who recently advised putting all *** people in a concentration camp where they will die out since they can't breed. Doesn't that stupid jack-hole realize that straight people make *** babies? Think about it. Jesus said "Love thy neighbor," not "love thy neighbor unless she's a ***." Who are you to judge? Isn't that better left up to God?
