Alas, no reply. God loves fags; he hates sin in any form because it violates his character and he knows it will finally, eternally, kill us. It's hard to share the Good News while being a jerk. Ya know Fred, it's hard for a whore to tell her lover to repent. Ponder that. Fred Phelps has made a mockery of the Gospel so I penned this for him and sent it to him. Alas, no reply.

Instead of winning souls for Christ, they were driving souls away. No one wants to worship a God who would do this. And the one true God doesn't. Yes, He is holy, yes He is just, and no He cannot allow sin in His presence. But He is also a God of love Who could not stand the thought of His creation being separated from Him forever, so He made a way through Christ to satisfy justice and allow mercy to those who would accept His free gift of salvation. God's justice, God's holiness, and God's punishment for sin needs to be preached. But so does God's love, because without God's love, there is no salvation. Jesus' death on the cross proved His absolute love for all of us, and it's a shame that so many people reject that. We can receive forgiveness for our sins and stand before God justified, as if we had never sinned, by simply believing that Jesus is who He said He is and did what the Bible said He did, and by receiving His free gift by faith.
