WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY ABOUT...

HOMOSEXUALITY?

We realize that this subject can be a very difficult one to address. Furthermore, as hate crimes specifically committed against homosexuals occur, many feel that this issue shouldn't be addressed at all for fear of only adding to the hostile environment that many homosexuals face. Despite the cultural climate in which we live, this issue must be addressed according to the Word of God. God's laws are always for our good, although man may see them as restricting. In the end, only obedience to the Word of God can bring true freedom. We address this issue out of God's love for the homosexual to bless and help him.

Much of our society has embraced many perverted sexual practices that are considered in the Bible as abominations to God. Homosexuality is among the list of deviate or abnormal sexual practices however, there are many other practices that can be included as well. Pornography, pedophilia, prostitution, bestiality, oral sex, phone sex and computer virtual reality sex, just to name a few of them.

1 Corinthians 6:9-10 (NIV): "Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters, nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God."

Although the Bible doesn't detail each and every one of these sinful acts, it does clearly speak out about many of them. Any deviation from God's original plan for sex between a married man and woman is still a sin in God's eyes. The main reason we call these things perverted is because they are unnatural and scripture clearly tells us those who do such things are committing abominations. Leviticus 18:22 (KJV): "Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind it is abomination."

Homosexuality is also referred to as the sin of sodomy. This reference comes from an account in the Bible of two exceedingly wicked cities, Sodom and Gomorrah, which the Lord destroyed. Sodom was known for its rampant homosexuality and unrestrained sexual lust, as well as other sins such as arrogance, haughtiness, and disregard for the poor. When the Lord sent angels to warn Lot who lived in the city that it was about to be destroyed, the men of the city actually wanted to rape the angels! Genesis 13:13: "But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly."

In the Old Testament the penalty for this sin was severe. Leviticus 20:13: "If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them." Today the penalty of death comes in the form of AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases. It also brings death to the soul and spirit of man because the life of God is pushed out by indulging in something that is an abomination to God. God wants to deliver all who are trapped in this unholy practice and He will if anyone calls out to Him with a sincere heart.

You are hate.

I want quote from Jesus God himself

I am LOVE LOVE LOVE

I want quote from Jesus God himself

I just gave those quotes (from God Himself)unless you don't believe that the Bible is the word of God !!! Jesus absolutely thought so. Do you not actually believe Jesus ?? FOOL !!!

Homosexuality was not a sin to Christ, its a part of life and he knew this.

He could see two men completely in love and living together have sexual relations. He knew that to break this union up would only lead to chaos

LET LOVE ON ALL LEVELS BE FREE

PEOPLE ARE WHO THEY ARE

STOP TRYING TO CHANGE OTHERS!!!

Of course Homosexuality is a sin to Christ...come on...what you could have said...and should have said...is that Christ died for your sins, my sins, all sins, whether it be the sin of homosexuality or the sin or pride, the sin of covetness...it doesn't really matter...He died for your sins, my sins, the whole worlds' sins...no matter what it is - he died and paid for your sins..

but let's not make it out like homosexuality, stealing, lying, cheating, whatever, are less a sin because He has already paid for it...it's still a sin - no doubt; no doubt. Much of what we do day to day is sin...that's why we needed Christ to come in and sacrifice His life for the payment of our sins...sheesh!

You are hate and he destroys hate and divisions among men woman and child

I suppose disappointment is the only feeling when one tries to please more than that which cares...do you really think God is keeping tabs based on sexual preference when there are murderers running amok?

I second this.

Plus, I know a lot of gay guys and girls who are far better persons than many straight politicians, doctors, lawyers and even clerics.

The concept of sin is to willfully NOT do the will of God. Whether you're straight or gay, what matters is to love God above all things and do good to others.

When one does something know that this will harm anothers, then it's a sin, regarldess of race, color, or sexual orientation.
