Non Catholic Christians and the acceptance of homosexuality
I asked about this at a Catholic forum recently, never having conversed with a non Catholic on this topic before. Others have, apparently, and the gist of the response I received seems to be that most non Catholics think the Cross of the Christ tore down the old Mosaic Law and now redemption is a matter of Grace, derived from the risen Christ. That the Law of Moses has been replaced(?).
Do the Protestant Bibles then come without the Old Testament? Is it there as an entertaining story only? I seem to remember that the Lord said that he wasn’t there to change the Old Law, more to affirm it. From where does the idea come that Grace overcomes sinful nature that is not renounced? Doesn’t that then mean that you can do whatever you please, and still be saved because of the Christ? There’s something wrong about that. Do you see it?
