I absolutely agree. I didn't mean to imply that homosexuality was automatically worse than any and all other sins. It's the habitual practicing of a sin, with a disregard for what scripture says about it that is the problem. If I lose my temper I am generally convicted about it immediately. But if I live that way day in and day out, and say, "Well, I don't care what you think the Bible says about it. God created me an angry person, and He loves me just the way I am, and go mind your own &@*X#!! business!!"
Not that my *opinion* of another person amounts to a hill of beans, but my *opinion* of a person who continues unrepentantly in intentional habitual sin is likely not truly saved. That's not me trying to judge them, but me being concerned about them. If that person died, I personally would not have much peace about where they would spend eternity. The Bible says "Examine yourself, see if you are really in the faith" (slight paraphrase, sorry), which says to me there are people who THINK they are saved, but in actuality, they are not. I think that a person who habitually intentionally sins (ie a practicing homosexual, a practicing adulterer, a practicing thief, or a practicing angry screamer) MAY LIKELY be the kind of person God was referring to when he said "Examine yourself...."
There was a period of about 2 years, after I had understood the gospel and asked Jesus to save me, that I lived in a regular state of an intentional habitual sin too. I KNEW it was wrong. I would look at my Bible on the shelf, and not even be courageous enough to pick it up and read it, because I knew it would say things I didn't want to hear! I stopped going to church, I stopped praying. Somehow I didn't feel bad about the sin I was continuing in. But if you asked me, I would have said that I was saved. I even continued to tell others how to be saved! But I was not living like a Christian!! (this was a long time ago--I truly don't understand it now that I look back, so don't ask me what in the world I was thinking!!!) Now as I think back on that period of time, I'm just glad I didn't die during that time, because I'm not at all convinced that I was saved then. I don't know if I really had been saved at one time and lost it, or just never really was yet (this is why I really don't know how I feel about OSAS), but I really do not believe that I was saved and heaven-bound at that point in my life. Thank God for His mercy in bringing me back to HIM!!
I know that God doesn't "perfect" us at the moment of our salvation, but if a person continues in sin, after he knows for certain what God says about it, without even WANTING to change, I question his salvation. If an alcoholic, or homosexual, etc goes through a period of struggle to escape his sin, with times of repeating the sin, but the DESIRE is to overcome the sin, that is one thing. The original question here was about a homosexual pastor, which sounds like a person who obviously KNOWS what God says about that sin, but continues to live that way anyway (assuming he is practicing the sin of homosexuality and not just having the inclinations without acting upon them).
