You Will Be Made to Care

Much has been said about this post, including a good bit of heat toward me for putting on the front.

 

There is much that could be said. I disagree with a lot of the theology.

 

In particular, I disagree with this:

 

Is Homosexuality a Sin?

 

I. Do. Not. Care.

 

Luke 10 tells the story of a legal expert who queried Jesus about what was required to inherit eternal life. Christ turned the question back on its questioner, and this man whose entire life revolved around studying the law of God summed it up in two points: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”

 

And Christ informed him that he had it exactly right.

 

That’s what is required to be a follower of Christ. I’m not called to hunt down sinful people, or question the faith of my friends and neighbors, or try to wield the power of the government to enforce my convictions on others.
