Ah yes. Applying current year to what God says. I didn’t know people thought Ruth and Naomi were gay until recently. This has really infiltrated the church. I haven’t been in the Christianity page in Reddit in years. Did this post get pushback at least?
The Bible makes it clear not to be if this world and they are eager to latch onto worldly trends. They also twist the “love your neighbor” command to justify anything. I hope my brothers or sisters in Christ love me enough to call me out if I’m sinning
For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? (Hebrews 12: 6-7)
Hebrews 13:8-9 and James 1:12-18 apply here, too. God is eternal and unchanging; His dictates are the same "yesterday, today and forever", and in him "is no variableness, neither shadow of turning."
Given that my pastor literally preached on Galatians 5: 5-12 this morning, and focused on "A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump", and segued into "Even a little false doctrine can destroy a church"...
Its not just applying current year. Its starting with current year and then forcing the Bible to fit into your own moral worldview from that. Its the literal opposite of how religion is supposed to work.

Evil likes to infect things with ideology, that were in an otherwise non-infected condition.

Amen to that

Very fitting comment.
