It was a tense conversation. It would be better to have less talking and more listening. Talking over each other is not the way to be heard.

However, it's good to see this message made public here. It is true that repentance is required to enter the kingdom of God. Jesus said to those who allowed their flesh to rule over them:

Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do.

Lust belongs to hell. Love belongs to heaven.

It's kind of funny how that preacher didn't realize how Paul was as gay as the day is long.

So now you are also Paul's judge? Homosexuals can be saved by the blood of Jesus.... if they repent.

A theory I've heard many times but it really is one that lacks any evidence. There is no real reason to assume Paul was gay just as there is really no evidence to say he was not.

I believe most homosexual advocates want to read into friendships between men with some romantic element that non-homosexuals wouldn't assume exists. For example there is the so called "embrace" between David and Jonathan used as evidence of a homosexual relationship which is laughably silly in light of the fact that David basically had a harem and actually got a guy killed so he could steal his wife after he saw her bathing because he wanted her.
