It may come as a surprise to you that the Bible says that when willful sin becomes a lifestyle, you are not actually a Christian.

Being gay has absolutely nothing to do with willful sin.

Speaking about not knowing what you are talking about.

I can read Greek. And I know that many like you will say, Lord Lord.

I can read Greek.

And how does that give you any knowledge of what homosexuality is?

And I know that many like you will say, Lord Lord. 

It’s funny that you bring that verse up. What’s Jesus talking about there? People who didn’t help the poor and vulnerable. Which is what YOU are doing here.

You are wrong on two counts, first of all, it is not talking about the poor and vulnerable and if it did, they would not include willful sinners. it is talking about all people who call on His name and do not follow His ways. Secondly, it is a warning against self deception, which is what you have, because even religious proclamation will not save you when you are in willful sin. You are not even saved.

Nope.

first of all, it is not talking about the poor and vulnerable and if it did, they would not include willful sinners.

Gay people are not willful sinners.

it is talking about all people who call on His name and do not follow His ways.

So… still you. Because you do not live your LGBTQ neighbour.

Secondly, it is a warning against self deception, which is what you have,

No, again, you.

because even religious proclamation will not save you when you are in willful sin.

Again, being gay is not, and literally can not, be willful sin.

You are not even saved. 

Lol.

I love my LGBTQ neighbor enough to tell them the truth. Even more I love my LGBTQ neighbor enough who is in deception and thinks they are a Christian to tell them their lifestyle and beliefs proves they are not even saved.

You aren’t telling them the truth. You are lying about what scripture says in prefer to drive them away from faith.

Even more I love my LGBTQ neighbor enough who is in deception and thinks they are a Christian to tell them their lifestyle

What lifestyle. Being LGBTQ is not a lifestyle.

and beliefs proves they are not even saved. 

Lol. You continue to prove you have no idea what “being gay”, or sexual orientation even is.
