Why? If Revelator has repented He will be forgiven by God. Not my problem.
You're being inconsistent. If a divorcee who remarries and then repents is forgiven, and is all good, then why isn't a homosexual who repents?

In both cases, they are both "living lifestyles" that are considered wrong, according to your interpretation of the Bible. They both repent. Neither changes the circumstances of their relationships.

How am I being inconsistent? Most homosexuals do not think there is a need to repent for their lifestyle. Ask them?

And I believe this was left out of Vegas's scripture.

except it be for fornication,


So according to Jesus, unless you marry a virgin, you have every right to divorce.

My wife committed adultery after a 27 year marriage, which is biblical grounds for divorce and she also sought out the divorce even though I was willing to remain married and work through it. Vegas already knows this, but his hatred of me and his lack of understanding concerning scripture drives him to repeat this fallacy over and over again. I don't have anything to repent about concerning my divorce because I wasn't the offender.
And to answer your question, repentance means renouncing something and attempting to not commit the same act with the power of the Holy Spirits help.
If a gay person tries to abstain from sex, and in his heart makes a conscience effort to do so, he can be clean before God.
The gay person who continues having homosexual sex because he chooses to obey his lust over God will be judged accordingly.
