You Claim You Were Born A Homosexual (Follow up to Where do Homosexuality Come From)

Many have said they were born a homosexual. I beg to differ. Where is there any fact that it has any truth, or been proven. I have my truth, it is stated over and over again in the Bible that man was created from God. Made by God, for God and in God. With many evils of this world, one maybe led to believe in any and everything opposite to the Word of God.

Let’s see what the Bible says about the creation of man, sexual impurity, and repents. First look at Genesis 5:1 it says When God created man, he made him in the likeness of God. He created them male and female and blessed them. And when they were created, he called them “man”.

Now look at Matthew 19:4 it says Haven’t you read, “he replied, ” that at the beginning the Creator made them male and female, and said, “For this reason a man will heave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh? So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.

Look at Genesis 9:5 it says And for your lifeblood I will surely demand a accounting. I will demand an accounting from every animal. And from each man, too, I will demand an accounting for the life of his fellow man. Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God has God made man.

Now look at Psalm 100:1 it says Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth. Worship the Lord with gladness; come before him with joyful songs. Know that the Lord is God. It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.

Look at Leviticus 18:22 it says Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable. Do not have sexual relations with an animal and defile yourself with it. A woman must not present herself to an animal to have sexual relations with it; that is a perversion. Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways, because this is how the nations that I am going to drive out before you became defiled.

Now look at Psalm 50:16 it says But to the wicked, God says: “What right have you to recite my laws or take my covenant on your lips? You hate my instruction and cast my words behind you. When you see a thief, you join with him; you throw in your lot with adulterers. You use your mouth for evil and harness your tongue to deceit. You speak continually against your brother and slander your own mother’s son. These things you have done and I kept silent; you thought I was altogether like you. But I will rebuke you and accuse you to your face. Consider this, you who forget God, or I will tear you to pieces, with none to rescue; He who sacrifices thank offerings honors me, and he prepares the way so that I may show him the salvation of God.”

Look at Luke 12:47 it says That servant who know his master’s will and does not get ready or does not do what his master wants will be beaten with many blows. But the one who does not know and does things deserving punishment will be beaten with few blows. From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.

Now look at Romans 1:25 it says They exchange the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creatorwho is forever praised. Amen. Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchange natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lusts for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

Furthermore, since they did not think it worth while to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents, they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless.

Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

Look at 1Corinthians 5:9 it says I have written you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral peoplenot at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolater. In that case you would have to leave this world. But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a brother (fellow member, colleague) but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a slanderer, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat.

Now look at 1Corinthians 6:9 it says Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders or thieves or the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

Look at 2Corinthians 12:19 it says Have you been thinking all along that we have been defending ourselves to you? We have been speaking in the sight of God as those in Christ; and everything we do, dear friends, is for your strengthening.

In closing look at Romans 6:19 it says I put this in human terms because you are weak in your naturals selves. Just as you used to offer the parts of your body in slavery to impurity and to ever-increasing wickedness, so now offer them in slavery to righteousness leading to holiness. When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the control of righteousness. What benefit did you reap at that time from the things you are now ashamed of? Those things result in death! But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves to God, the benefit you reap, leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Love Always,
Your Sister in Christ,
Mellody Davis

Peruvian Pisco Obtains Overwhelming Recognition

The International Wine and Spirits Competition, the premier competition of its kind in the world, awarded Peruvian Pisco with 14 medals during the 2005 edition, including a Gold & Best in Class recognition to Pisco Payet Quebranta 2003, by producer Guillermo Payet. The awards, conferred to different “pisqueros” (Pisco producers), are a clear recognition of the unrivalled quality of the Pisco produced in Peru.

Peru’s national drink, Pisco is a tasty and clear brandy distilled from fermented grape juice. Its origins go back to the XVI century, when it was first produced by the Spaniards from quebranta grapes (a variation of Muscat), growing in the vineyards of the Ica Valley. Its name probably comes from the Pisco port, in Ica, some 250 km south of Lima.

Pisco is obtained from the distillation of recently fermented grape juice or musts, providing a distinctive taste, emphasizing the fact of being an “eau de vie” pure from its very beginnings. The distillation process of Pisco, created many centuries ago and transmitted from generation to generation, is also typical and unique.

In recent years, there has been an increasing dispute between Peru and Chile over which country owns the appellation of Pisco. Recently, though, the World Intellectual Property Organization recognized the “pisco” denomination as a beverage of Peruvian origin (Registry 065, July 2005).

Indeed, the selection of raw materials and production process of Peruvian Pisco guarantee a very high quality, which cannot be matched by other “aguardientes” (firewaters).

Peruvian Pisco, for example, is obtained from the distillation of recently fermented “fresh” musts, a type of process that avoids musts to remain stagnant for several months before being distilled or used for mature wines.

Moreover, no aggregates are included in the distillation process (no distilled or treated water is added with the purpose of changing its consistency, color and other features that make it a distinctive product). Chilean firewater, on the contrary, is mixed, diluted with demineralized water in order to lower the gradiation to the desired level, filtered and bottled.

The awards obtained by Peruvian Pisco are an overwhelming indication of its superior quality.

The International Wine and Spirit Competition was founded in 1969 and is the premier competition of its kind in the world. Its aim is to promote the quality and excellence of the world’s best wines, spirits and liqueurs.

This standard is achieved through a rigorous two-stage judging process of professional blind tasting and detailed technical (chemical and microbiological) analysis that takes place at The Competition’s headquarters in Surrey, UK.

The Competition is backed by a group of vice presidents made up of the most influential men and women in the trade, including Baroness Philippine de Rothschild, Miguel Torres, Marchese Piero Antinori, Robert Drouhin, Robert Mondavi, May de Lencquesaing, Kenneth Graham and Sir Anthony Greener.

Thanks to a worldwide promotional campaign of Pisco as a Peruvian flag product, exports during 2004 increased by almost 40% on the previous year; a 100% increase is expected for 2005.

Journalist, impenitent traveller, and aficionado cook, Ferrer is founder of The
Peru Guide, and its Lima Restaurant and Nightlife editor.

Ten Tips for Today’s Mobile Executive

In this increasingly service-oriented and partner-based economy, mobility has become critical to workforces of all sorts. Employees are constantly on the go - working at client sites, at home, branch offices or with business partners across town and across the globe. In fact, research studies have estimated that over 54 million American employees are currently involved in some form of remote work - equaling more mobile workers than the total combined population of California and New York.

How can a business traveler stay organized and productive while on the road? Here are some ways that the mobile executive can keep focused and be efficient while traveling. Whether you are a first time traveler or a seasoned road warrior, these tips will be useful.

1. Carry Pen and Paper: Even in the digital age, the most low-tech solution is still the best, so always be equipped with a pen, pencil, highlighter and notepad. You might need to just dash off a message or take notes, but remember - paper and pen will always work during a power failure.

2. Be Tech Savvy: Advances in technology are making it easier to be a mobile executive, and having the latest technology at your fingertips such as a cell phone, wireless e-mail, PDA, lap-top computer- will help stay in touch and in sync with your office, your colleagues and your clients.

3. Do Your Research: Do your homework and research the area of where you are going before you get there. This includes noting the currency exchange, places to stay, nightlife entertainment, appropriate attire, restaurants for you and your clients, car service/car rental information, and the distance between the airport and your destination. Be aware of the do’s and don’ts of where you are going and dress accordingly, you don’t want to end up dressed too formally or too casually for your destination.

4. Bring Batteries: Sure, this sounds like a no-brainer, but it is important to have batteries to back up all of the technological products you may have with you. And, don’t forget the charger for your cell phone!

5. Take Business Cards: Always carry extra business cards on you, and keep them in an easy-to-reach place. When traveling, your business card is your calling card, and you want to make sure to have enough with you to give out to important clients, business partners and new contacts.

6. Keep Important Information Close: Keep your license, passport, tickets and directions to your destination in an easy but safe spot close by. Always keep this on hand, in briefcase or on your body, perhaps in a fanny pack or an inner jacket pocket, and never pack your traveling information - always keep it accessible.

7. Bring Office Essentials: I always suggest carrying special organizers for paper files and presentations with you, along with an expanding organizer for all of your paper-based files to keep at your fingertips. This will keep your files handy when you reach your destination.

8. Color-Code Your Files: Color-code papers to save time looking for the variety of documents you need to carry with you. Color-coding keeps your papers visually accessible, making it easier to locate your paperwork when it is organized by color.

9. Stay on Top of Finances: Keep a daily journal of all expenses associated with your traveling so that you can reconcile the money spent upon your return. Travelers should be aware of hidden costs, special surcharges and taxes, especially from hotels.

10. Stock up on Literature: Always carry reading material to keep you occupied, since clients can run late and planes may be delayed. You can also use this time to review your notes, peruse a business journal, catch up on a proposal or return phone calls.
