If I would ask the Pope or a Governing Body member if all gay men are soft, would the answer be yes or no? If they do not know then how do they know soft means what they say it means?

What is it about? The Bible says soft men shall not inherit God's Kingdom.

I think it is also true that soft women will not inherit God's Kingdom. But The Bible doesn't say anything about soft women. Why not?

People who are like the soft clothing on the people living in the houses of the kings are not destined for Heaven.

Matthew 11: 7 While these were on their way, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see?+ A reed being tossed by the wind?+8 What, then, did you go out to see? A man dressed in soft garments?* Why, those wearing soft garments are in the houses of kings.

Luke 7: 24 When the messengers of John had gone away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed being tossed by the wind?+25 What, then, did you go out to see? A man dressed in soft garments?*+Why, those wearing splendid dress and living in luxury are in royal houses.

I can bet the writer of 1 Corinthians 6:9 had in mind the words of Jesus about fine clothes. If he didn't know what Jesus said about μαλακὰ then I think he had no business writing about truth.

If Bible publishing companies are not about telling the truth then what are they about? Hm. Why not give me a day to think about it. ;)

I have a scripture! Matthew 13:22
The seed falling among the thorns refers to someone who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, making it unfruitful.

Bibles are printed for money. I didn't need a day.

Also, they are being plagiarized. The evidence for plagiarism is the copying of errors.

Soft men will not inherit God's Kingdom per 1 Cor 6:9. What about soft women? Will they be allowed in?

You will be hated by everyone because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. Matthew 10:22

People who can but do not stand firm are soft.

Jesus used the word to describe the people who live with kings. What must a person need to do to live in the house of a king? Be gay?

Should I tell them? "Nobody is listening so......beat yourself silly........hell, why not?

Think about what? The Bible says that men who submit to homosexual sex will not inherit God's Kingdom. It is a lot too specific for me so instead of throwing out the word which is translated effeminate I gave it some thought. Try it sometime! I think that what I came up with makes some sense and it can certainly be applied to men AND to women.

People who are like fine clothes that are worn by the people who wish to live in king's palaces will not inherit God's Kingdom.

Why not explain to a hungry lesser one what soft or fine clothes have to do with being susceptible to gayness?

They all say that being soft means having the willingness to submit to male homosexual sex. I say The Bible should not say that. They say I am for ignoring. Oh guess what? I won't be ignored. I mean I am, but I am not loving it.

So you write a book and send it out for publication. The publisher changes several of your ideas for his ideas but does not ask you and he publishes it as he sees fit but with your name on it.

How do you feel?

1 Corinthians six verse nine say that men who are "soft" will not inherit God's Kingdom.

"Soft" is translated many ways and these are them. Adulterers, male prostitutes, submit to homosexual acts, effeminate, abusers of themselves with mankind, passive homosexual partners, sexual molesters,
those who commit adultery, those who make women of themselves, any who are guilty of unnatural crime,

( One just takes the word out - Douay-Rheims Bible
Know you not that the unjust shall not possess the kingdom of God? Do not err: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers)

1 Corinthians 6:9 Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men

These are BIBLES which are considered God's Word by many people who are distributing then as TRUTH that are saying the word for "sexual molesters" and "prostitution" is "soft".

I think the one that came the closest is "passive homosexual partners" NET Bible.

Then take out the word homosexual in the NET Bible and that is right.

Passive partners will not inherit God's Kingdom. It does have to do with sex.

The other places where it is written have to do with soft clothing. Compare Matthew 11:8 and Luke 7:25

Soft clothing is comfortable.

μαλακοὶ is the word for the people whose main goal is to make other people comfortable. People whose life is lived for other people's pleasure will not inherit God's Kingdom.

I understand there are entertainers whose work is to pleasure other people. μαλακοὶ does not describe them for they are their own persons and are not WORN by their audience. The word μαλακοὶ means people who are willing to be worn by others for other people's comfort. Not only sexual pleasure.
I reckon the Douay-Rheims figures the word, "effeminate" in verse 10 covers it. But that is certainly not the only place in Paul's writings that he speaks of it, for example Romans chapter one.

Right. So what does effeminate mean to you? It is obviously only about men. Why? Seems unfair don't you think?
