You can read what that will is.
Your comments prove you want to do your will. You do not and have not submitted to God's will.
Absolutely, the Bible is helpful for instruction in learning God’s will.

I only seek to do the will of my Creator, God, as I understand God.

Not as you understand what is written in the Bible maybe, but definitely I have submitted based upon what God teaches me through what is written in the Bible.

Live and let live my brethren!

Homosexuality for example. Condemned in the Bible but you approve of it. Certainly you aren't going to tell us God told you it's ok?
I don’t approve of it, nor condemn it. Never have. I definitely don’t understand it, I was not put here to condemn anyone but to save anyone that God chooses through Christ’s work in me.

That's an ambivalent answer. If it's a sin you should tell people lost in that sin to repent and stop. If you don't then you truly aren't helping them know God.

Your passed comment.
You said God told you that homosexuality was not a sin and homo marriages are fine with him.
The Bible is very clear that homosexuality is an abomination to God.
What past comment?

i’m not sure I said that I may have said that I am not certain that homosexuality is a sin no more than I believe alcoholism is not a sin.

I believe the biblical writers may be wrong about this issue yes, but it is not a dealbreaker for me because it doesn’t affect me much and I certainly am in no way dealing with this problem never have never will. I certainly will not condemn them as my savior doesn’t condemn.

OK.

I don’t believe I have this obligation that you claim I have about this issue or any other sin.

I believe the best way you could try to truly help someone know God is to closely resemble Jesus in your behavior, mannerisms speech, and compassion..

The New Testament clearly outlines making the lost aware of the sins they are committing, making them aware of Jesus' plan of salvation, and having them repent of their sins and being baptized, a symbolic act that symbolizes the washing away of sin and rising up as a new creature. It starts with preaching or teaching.

If he doesn’t believe in sin, what would be the point of repentance? Nearest as I can tell, the only person who never had to repent, was the one that hung on the cross.
