God’s Inclusive Love Respects Homosexuals – Archbishop Scicluna
God dwells within every human life and this idea can offer consolation and direction to homosexual Catholics, writes pro-homosexual Malta Archbishop Charles Scicluna on the pro-homosexual Outreach.faith (February 3)
His text employes psychological categories and rhetoric such as “feelings”, “wounds”, “weaknesses”, “fear”, “self-punishment”, “self-doubt”, “dependence”, “healing”, and so on.
As if there were no sin, Monsignor Scicluna claims that “our stories, relationships, questions and identities are never beyond God’s loving gaze”.
He believes that “our lived experiences—including our questions, wounds and hopes—are not obstacles to God, but places of encounter”.
“Many of us, including LGBTQ Catholics, experience fragmentation: a sense of being divided between faith and identity, church and self, hope and fear. God’s presence gently draws us towards integration and peace.”

Mr. Scicluna... Seven years ago he said at a Vatican abuse summit that homosexuality isn’t “something that really predisposes to sin”....
God dwells in every human life that accepts him by following His ways and renouncing sin. Anyone who embraces sin rejects God implicitly. How can such asn evil idiot be an archbishop?
Wrong! Priests especially, are called to save souls and they do that by convincing them to reject sin, not tolerate or embrace it.
Of course the church should follow in Jesus' footsteps to love, sacrifice, and CALL TO REPENTANCE all his children. When we do not call those enslaved to sin to repentance, we do not love them, we lock them away from God's mercy. Jesus did not accompany Mary Magdalene in her sin, but called her to sin no more. The very concept of original sin says, how you were born does not determine your destiny unless you refuse God's grace to change.
“We are called to become people who welcome, listen and accompany others with respect and tenderness irrespective of religious, cultural, racial or sexual differences. This is what God’s inclusive love is all about.” But if you die in mortal sin, nothing of the above will help. This bishop is deliberately muddying the waters.
Looks like an archbishop of Catholic church but sounds like a devil. Poisonous fruits of Bergoglio/prevost antichurch
