Not knowing anything about this particular churches baptism process its kind of hard to really form an opinion. My old church had a four week process in place before a person was officially baptized so that a person would know what is required and what is expected of them as a new beliver. I wonder did this church have something like this in place? And furthermore, how do we know that during this process, the men did not do this? According to the article, I guess you can assume that they still live together, but so far, each man has decided not to comment.
And why don't we get up in arms and screen out those people (whether saved or unsaved) that engage in pre-maritial sex who are wanting to join and come to church. HIV/AIDS is killing our community. Again, there is no sin above another, so we as believers need to be just as adament about educating those folks as well.
I'm not saying that homosexuality is not a sin, but only GOD will be the one to judge whether or not at the point in which those men made a committment to Him, if it was it real and done according to His will. As guess what.......my heterosexual self faces that same judgement.
